CMLL FSE #66

CMLL FSE #66, aired in the US on 12/02, taped 11/04

If you’ve forgetten this show, and I recapped it two weeks ago so it’s long gone, let me show you all you need to remember.

Valiente’s probably going to have a far worse fall than that this day, but at least he knows how to save himself if things go wrong. I think most people just presume their dive is going to go perfect every single time and don’t practice dealing with how to turn when your feet hit the ropes on the way over or whatever (because how would you? I dunno)

The main event was a fine tease for a Black Warrior/Negro Casas match that never happened. How many ideas did they try out discard for the main event?

Tecnicos won the main event in straight falls. Perro smashed the cartoonist’s canvas on Park’s head and Hector fouled Shocker. Park had to be helped to the back after the match.

That tercera finish is a major upset, I think. Sagrado and Volador have moved up a lot this year (not so much Mascara) and it’s only a tercera, but it’s still stunning (and great) to see them beat Warrior and Universo.

Dorada pinned Mini Damian.

MedioTiempo writes about AAA’s annual year end dinner. Super Fly broke the pinata! Abismo Negro showed up! Not sure if this is going to be intermixed with best of footage this year.

No Lineups Yet. I’ll check on that later.

aside: that’s a heck of an ice skating rink they’ve got set up in DF that I keep seeing.
