FSE
CMLL Guerreros del Ring on FSE #53, taped 08/03 and 08/05, aired 09/02 in the US.
Wrestlers react to in-match injuries completely different in Mexico than I’m used to seeing in the US. US wrestlers have no problem giving up the match if someone gets hurt. Luchadors seem to go the complete opposite way – Wagner was more aggressive and more interesting in actually fighting after Atlantis then before (when he was posing and strutting.) It’s not just this match – the last Sunday Arena Coliseo Mexico show, where Famila de Tijuana attacked Maximo multiple times as he was being carried out comes to mind. I’m not sure if it’s just what you’re expected to do to protect the integrity of the match, it just seems very odd to my eyes.
Women’s trios was another good match, but it’d be nice if there was some sort of direction here.
I think I prefer the editing to be done in the first fall, but I prefer they cut out two more minutes of pointless stuff and just show complete matches.
