Volador = Justin Shapiro?

Big ups to Rob for the info on all the Guapo U. candidates.

I was over my friend Pete’s house yesterday and got to watch some lucha. I did miss the mascara contra mascara match but what I saw was pretty dope.

They kept flashing Sin Piedad on the screens, which used to be the name for some CMLL pay-per-views, but this was still a big show with what looked like a big crowd.

Up first was Los Havana Brothers vs. Los Infernales. Only the tercera caida aired, which I hear is a trend these days. The gist of the match was Averno and Mephisto kicked ass when they were in the ring, until Satanico demanded to be tagged in and fucked it all up. Averno and Meph end up winning with dual Angel Wings, then refuse to let Satanico join in the post match celebration. It’s pretty easy to tell where this is going (especially since the show is about three months old).

We see Felino pumping up Volador and Safari. I don’t know what was more amazing, Felino calling Safari young or Volador’s Penguins jersey.

Then we saw the finals for the Mexican Trios Titles, as Felino & Safari & Volador tackled Super Crazy & Zumbido & Alan Stone (!). I won’t go into too much detail, but this was a pretty rockin’ match with a few rough patches. Volador hit the world’s greatest Asai Moonsault, only to be topped by the rudos inventive move of ramming one tecnico’s crotch into another tecnico’s face. Felino and pals win. Good stuff.

I missed Angel Azteca vs. Arkangel. I would have been more interested if we saw these guys more frequently than once every few years. Oh well.
