Been a while since I’ve done one of these.
Most of this recap is me marking out over the length and depth of the action. The opener was better than usual, but I think my mind was just generally blown by things like the second match being longer than both matches have been on recent FSEs. That, and guys who don’t seem like they’re trying that much on Sunday sure are on Friday. It may take me a few episodes to get over it, and it’s worth noting I was far more into the show the most of the fans were. Those who showed anyway.
It’s amazing how much extra time you have when you cut out pointless entrances and cut out even more pointless promos before matches.
There’s no heat for the Villanos/Laguneros. Sad but true. And when you see it in action…it makes since that the Laguneros are rallying together to fight the Villanos, especially because there’s an implied storyline that the Villanos used their numbers to unmask Panther in the first place. That’s fine and well for the main event (at least in theory), but why are the Laguneros teaming up in the semimain? Just because UG says so (even if there’s no vignette?) Why wouldn’t Ephesto side with the guys he’s been teaming with for months over the guys he just hooked up with?
Still, the opener goes on the Best of Mictlan DVD.
