AAA #650

AAA #650, taped 10/07/07, aired 11/10/07

Three matches in three hours is excruciating. This time, it’s not even recaps to fill it up, just matches going long and entrances going super long. There’s no commercials live, so maybe it was only a couple hours for them but it was still way to stretched.

After the comedy of the first couple trips outside, the reality of how dumb the stip was for the match borne out. Stips are not supposed to hurt the match, but the eight people on the ring spent the middle third of the match avoiding the stip coming into play, and the last third ignoring it to get dives in.

The extreme was the usual extreme match. The only things that stick with me are the spots that go wrong. I hope Nicho has a better thought out entrance when he’s a surprise debut again in eight months.

I’m equally as bored with dome cage matches. Zorro getting help from the rudos to get revenge on Chessman makes sense, next week’s surprise being shown does not, but that’s AAA for you. Maybe they should have flipped episode order here.
