recap
taped 2013-02-03 @ Palenque de la Feria, Pachuca, Hidalgo
Fabi Apache, La Jarochita, Lolita vs Jennifer Blake, Mari Apache, Taya Valkyrie: Okay match that got really good in the closing minutes with some exciting action. Jarochita didn’t do much (or they edited it so we only saw Jarochita do a little), but everything she did looked good. A fine debut.
Dinastía, Mascarita Sagrada, Octagoncito vs Mini Abismo Negro, Mini Histeria, Mini Psicosis: Another good match to set up the title match. Mascara Sagrada looked much better than he normally did when he was working with Mini Abismo Negro, so I guess Mini Abismo Negro is really back. This wasn’t the most action of these matches – they traded some of that for countering the usual spots to make it feel different, and it still worked.
Cibernético, El Mesías, La Parka vs Chessman, Parka Negra, Texano: Usual AAA main event – rudos brawl, técnicos comeback, each técnico gets in two minutes off offense, dives and finish – but came across stronger than usual because of the loud crowd. That building looked 70-80% full and was extremely loud, I can’t imagine how it’d be with a full house. Parka Negra needs the win, but it also helps if he does a little more; I think he’s consciously not doing anything he might have done in a previous gimmick, but he’s not added much new to replace it. Finish wasn’t too strong, but I think it might have been improvised after the sunset flip counter spot (where Parka Negra could’ve used the chair again) didn’t work out.
