recap

taped 2013-04-09 @ Arena Mexico

Zayco flying elbow drop

Génesis & Metatrón vs Herodes Jr. & Zayco: This match was so boring when the técnicos were in control and moderately interesting when the rudos took over. And then it ended and we all moved on.

 

Really, Tigre Hispano?

Pequeño Halcón, Shockercito, Último Dragoncito vs Demus 3:16, Pequeño Violencia, Pequeño Warrior: less than expectations, and only helped by following a truly boring match. This was not great shakes on it own and a rough back to back to start the show. Violencia vs Shockercito didn’t seem to have anything and Violencia only seemed to half care the entire match.

 

Hooligan being Hooligan

Fuego, Metálico, Sagrado vs Hooligan, Nitro, Skándalo: continuing the pattern of slightly better, but still not very watchable matches. Metálico getting a win is nice a way to help a guy who may be in a mask match soon, in the unlikely event someone thought about that. Hooligan was fun.

 

TRT!

Rey Bucanero, Terrible, Tiger vs Blue Panther, Diamante, Stuka Jr.: The best match on the show, but that’s not saying much and shouldn’t be saying much. Probably just reaching ok. TRT was back together, but didn’t feel like a team outside of the stretch at the end of the first fall. Still, nice that they didn’t lose in the first team match (which again shouldn’t be considered some big achievement but is around here.) I’d be okay with never seeing a two or three man faceslam turned into a cradle again.

 

Maximo and Negro

Felino, Mr. Niebla, Negro Casas vs Diamante Azul, Máximo, Super Porky: This match might have done nothing for me either, but the crowd seemed to like it and it was nice that someone seemed to like one of these falls. Comedy entertained the fans there, but this was overall another low effort match, especially that finish. This is probably one of the worst shows of the year, especially since it was a two hour one.
