Recap: 11/18/08
Match 1: Amapola, Medussa, Princesa Sujei (c) vs Dark
Angel (c), Lady Apache, Marcela
Arena Mexico, 11/07/08
Winner: tecnicas
Match Time: 12:28
Approx Rating: Better than average.
Other Match Notes: We're getting this because this is Amapola's big
return match? No, it's randomness, but let's pretend. Entrances with music.
Marcela has her belt. It's funny that Dark Angel is using a cover of her music
and everyone else is just using the (presumably) unlicensed actual music. They
surely just only stop playing the music if they get an actual compliant for that
specific music. They surely aren't paying for the music, because that'd be more
than they pay for the wrestlers. Amapola now looks like she just get her hair
cut short in some sort of punk phase. She does NOT have her belt. Sujei has her destroyer
of foreigners shirt. Refs are Terror Chino and Bestia Negra.
1: So after all six entrances, the first fall is clearly joined in progress. Goofballs. Amapola and Apache are battling on the mat, Apache pretty clearly getting the better of it. Amapola i sable to sop her run with a kick, and sets Apache on top, but Apache grabs an armbar from up top and rolls Amapola to the mat. They end up in the rope s for a break. Apache gets Amapola with a springboard sunset flip, Amapola rolls thru and kicks, Lady Apache duck under and inside cradles her for two. Dropkick to the face keeps Amapola from more. Chop. Corner whip, Lady Apache double jumps into a missile dropkick for Amapola. Amapola rolls out, Apache chases her out and gives her a spinning backbreaker on the floor. Amapola must be so happy to be back. Sujei & Marcela hit each other hard, Marcela getting Sujei out after a couple minutes with her own missile dropkick. Medusa throw Dark Angel around by the hair, but Dark Angel has a nice comeback with a tope rope plancha, and sliding Medusa out on her chest. Amapola cuts her off with a kick to stop her dive, and Sujei dropkicks her out. The other tecnicas come in but are quickly neutralized by the rudas. Whips are reversed, rudas stop short of hitting each other, but still take Falcon arrows and submission for the fall. Someone actually won a fall with a cavernaria!
2: Lady Apache nearly reveres a tilt-a-whirl to the a second fall win. Amapola stops her for a brief seconds after that, only to take a run up the ropes armdrag anyway. Amapola tosses Apache in the corner, charges, and she's back to hitting the post again. Apache comes off the apron with a tope con giro to completely flatten her. Marcela gets Medusa with a clothesline, but then they completely get lost for fifteen seconds when trying to figure out who needs to whip whom, and where. Eventually they figure it out enough for Marcela to take a face first powerbomb to start the beatdown. Amapola and Sujei dropkick her in the head, and then start on the other two. Amapola running sit for Apache. Sujei ranas Dark Angel back first in the corner, and Medusa adds her running corner sit. Marcela takes Medussa's Air Raid Crash (hey, I looked it up!) for her pin. Both other tecnicos women are brought in. Amapola holds Lady Apache for a few seconds while Sujei gets in a couple extra moves, so they both can hit their finisher at the same time - backcracker, facebreaker. That's the fall.
3: Sujei didn't go after the ring girl once! She's off her game. Rudas continue destroying the tecnicas. A lot more violence and a lot less standing around then usual. Everyone takes turns punching Lady Apache, and then he's whipped around, a bit aimlessly. They settle on hanging Apache over the ropes, for a dropkick. Still don't get that spot. Dark Angel in, and awkwardly flapjacked on the ropes. Sujei snaps Sarah's arms over the top rope. Marcela in, kicked down. Marcela takes a whip and, breaking all laws of lucha libre physics, kicks Medusa as she charger her, without really grabbing the rope to stop herself. Medusa's bent over, so Marcela has an idea to leap off her back into a double clothesline on the other two. Good in theory, bad in execution, she comes up a little short and the crowd lets her know. Dark Angel in, and boosting off Marcela's back for a dropkick on Medusa, which goes a little bit better. Apache gets the other to with a missile dropkick. Dark Angel drops on Marcela with a plancha, and the tecnicas finish of the other two for the match. Quick final fall.
Match 2: Terrible, Texano Jr., Villano V (c) vs Black
Warrior (c), Heavy Metal, Olimpico
Arena Coliseo, 11/09/08
Winner: Villano V's team
Match Time: 10:22
Approx Rating: Fine
Other Match Notes: Entrances. Just to screw with me, they've dropped the
overdubbed entrances here. There can be no other reason. I'm okay with that.
They've got no problem using the Queen version of We Will Rock You - that seems
to have changed back and forth three or four times. They show an Olimpico promo
after Metal's entered, but before Warrior has. Olimpico tries to explain how
these sides actually make sense. Metal has an absurd all green body suit on.
Terrible and Texano are now using Iron Man, and have surgical masks on for no
reason. Maybe they just really liked the movie. Also, the Occidente Tag Titles.
V5's music has crowd noise in it. Fight breaks out after he hits the ring,
though we still get Terrible's promo.
1: Team Villano gets control of the brawl. V5 directs traffic for the other two, either having them set him up so he gets the easy shot, or them doing the grunt work after a whip. Olímpico and Metal get hung in the three of woe in opposite corners. Warrior sneaks in a clothesline on V5, which causes Terrible to hit him questionably low and all of Villanos team to stomp Warrior down. No DQ, though the announcers think maybe there should be and isn't because it's rudos/rudos. Warrior is rammed into Olimpico. Villano and company bring him to the other side to headbutt Heavy Metal's midsection many times. Referees put a stop to that and call the DQ. With nothing stopping them now, Villanos team crotches Heavy Metal on the post.
2: Villanos and friends continue the beatdown. They do have to win a fall here eventually. Metal gets whip, and does a double handspring which lands him on Terrible and Texano's shoulders, unbelievably enough. They keep him up there, until Olimpico breaks it up with a dropkick. Warrior and Villano brawl on the outside as Olimpico and Metal get revenge in the ring. Metal and Olimpico pulls of a bad boost dropkick spot, but are able to dropkick Terrible and Texano out. Metal almost goes over Terrible with a slingshot tope con giro, Olimpico catches more of Texano with his. Warrior and V5 yet, and V5 has to be eased into a drop toe hold. 619, Warrior goes up top, plancha with V5 throw off before landing. Clothesline by Warrior, V5 shows him off. Warrior off the ropes, bad powerslam, one two three. Told you they had to win one.
3: Tecnico showcase spots, with Warrior's side working as tecnicos. Olimpico working as tecnico is actually fresh air. It hasn't been that long since he was one, but it feels that way. Warrior wants Villano V, but he walks back to his corner rather than fight. Metal goes thru Texano instead. Texano takes the knee bump to the floor, and Metal adds his dropkick dive. Why Metal has his shirt tied up to expose his belly button, I don't know. With Terrible standing outside for no reason, V5 has no choice but to face Warrior. V5 takes one running elbow before going out, and gets quashed by a pescado. Metal and Texano back in, Metal hitting a slow plancha for zero, then rolling to Terrible and Texano's bodyscissors/facebreaker combo. Olimpico runs into to take Texano's headcrusher, and that's the match.
Replays, Metal gets his ribs checked out because that finisher was so devastating (but not so bad he can't go back in the ring and pose), video, and they're done.
