recap

Zeuxis with a drive by face kicking

Dalis la Caribeña, Dark Angel, Lluvia vs Lady Apache, Mima Shimoda, Zeuxis: section of this were okay, good even. Zeuxis looked good, when she wasn’t working with Dalis. Lluvia was not great, but was much improved over her last injury-reduced match. Lady Apache and Dark Angel work really well as rivals, even if they were just repeating their Friday stuff spot for spot here.

Cancerbero, Puma King, Raziel vs Fuego, Rey Cometa, Triton: fun match, picked up as it went. Everyone played a part, and the feuding two worked well together. They may have something really good with Puma vs Cometa here; it’s bringing out the best in Cometa and the never quite grasped potential in Puma King. And it’s a bit better than just random matches with these teams.

 

Delta + Polvora = Magic

Delta, Guerrero Maya Jr., Stuka Jr. vs Niebla Roja, Pólvora, Vangelis: This was one of those matches where the match is focused around the two guys who come off as the worst (Pólvora & Delta), but everyone else is good enough to make up for it. I know we’ve seen this before and a lot, but Niebla Roja is so much better as a rudo. Maya is becoming the full sized version of Ultimo Dragoncito!

 

Guerrero Maya as Ultimo Dragoncito

Ángel de Oro, La Máscara, Máscara Dorada vs Euforia, Mr. Niebla, Rey Escórpion: Euforia & Rey Escorpion being friends who come out together to the Guerreros music – three days after Guerrero kicked Rey Escorpion out of the groups and replaced him with Euforia – shows people even who are in this storylines are not following them. I’m almost wondering if the main event finish wasn’t supposed to happen when it did, because the técnicos pretty much it’s so rare they do as much after the whistle and Mascara seemed very unhappy in the post match. Not much of a match.
