And I’ll agree that the second match wasn’t as good, but he was matched up almost entirely with Ricky Cruz. I definitely haven’t seen stuff he has done elsewhere, but it looks like there is a bit online from South Africa.

@ohtani’s jacket: Nobody is claiming he is a superworker, just that he was enjoyable in his debut and in Alan's case (since I haven't seen it) - his second match. Surely you can't be writing the guy off as being garbage after seeing him in only one match?

You guys cannot be serious about Angelico being good.

@Alan: When Cruz(z?) was in last year, he was clearly just there to lose a mask ASAP. He's already scheduled to be around longer than they originally said, so it's probably just the hair match and out. Angelico is actually said to be a South Africian who got picked up by NWE, and got to Mexico thru Ultimo Dragon. I believe he's the guy who was wrestling as 'Adam Bridle' on Dragon shows last year and this. Navarro and others must be really high on him, or they wouldn't be giving him this feud instead of a guy who's been around longer.

@Rob: First Angelico match was definitely better, but that is easily blamed on the fact that he was matched up with Cruz this entire match. He still managed to look decent. Odd to see them both thrown into the main, so is Cruz just hear to cash in and drop his hair to Angelico? Would be a tough match for him to make it look good all the way through, but an easy stip match to help build him up I guess. He seems like he would fit in well in CMLL if they decide he is a foreigner worth taking a chance on. Hope he sticks around with IWRG enough for me to see him next month at the expo.

@Alan: Cubs says Cruz is just vacationing so he'll be gone soon enough. Angelico is some guy from Italy who I think came in for one of the Ultimo Dragon shows in Mexico and liked it so he came back to train with Negro Navarro. I like him too even though I've only seen the one match so far. He can work and definitely has the look that can take him far. Wouldn't be shocked if CMLL tried to do something with him one day.

After seeing him two weeks in a row, I think I like this Angelico guy. What’s his background? Has he ben around before and I just didn’t notice him?

Ricky Cruzz on the other hand I could handle not seeing anymore.

@MaX: They try to book as many people as possible for maximum confusion.

Is it me or the two IWRG shows have almost a different roster for both shows? Why is that?
