Angel del Oro multiple topes

Ángel de Oro vs Misterioso Jr. in a lightning match: turn taking move exhibition of limited value. Everything was executed fine but little was put together in an interesting way. Angel de Oro’s selling is the most interesting part of his game.

Rey Escorpion is the best

Diamante Azul, Super Porky, Titán vs Pierroth, Pólvora, Rey Escorpión: Not much of a match itself, and the build to Escorpion & Porky is not really working at this point. The gem of the Super Libre Plus idea is here, but it doesn’t really come across as anything more than normal feuding unless you look for it (Porky’s punches before the match, and Escorpion’s kicks at others.) Finish seems weak.

Brillante Driver

Averno, Último Guerrero, Volador Jr. vs Atlantis, Blue Panther, La Sombra: just a match to keep the top feuds going with the rudos looking good in the end. Intensity for these were down from last week – way down for Volador & Sombra – and it felt more like an off week than anything special. Maybe I’m just not in the right mood, but this came off as just ordinary.
