AAA #908 (10/17)

taped 09/26/09

Decnnis, El Elegido, Gronda II vs Gronda, Joe Lider, Nicho el Millionario in a hardcore cage match – a garbage match, with everything that means. If there was an explanation for Decnnis turning rudo, I missed it – though, I also missed the point of the clock bit until the end of the show, so someone feel free to explain this to me. I’ll be thrilled.
Extreme Tiger vs Sugi San, Jack Evans, Teddy Hart, Rocky Romero for the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship in a ladder and tables match – better than I thought it’d be, but there were too many of this very similar matches in too short of a time for any of them to feel special.
Dr. Wagner Jr. vs El Mesías for the AAA World Heavyweight Championship (and part 2) – not the brainless match from Verano, but I didn’t really get into as much as TripleMania. It wasn’t as intense at the end. It’s funny – it’s not like they haven’t been pushing Mesias absurdly hard since he turned tecnico, but it’s only been since Wagner showed up that the crowd started to turn on him for it. AAA makes it more and more clear that Wagner is supposed to be a rudo, and the fans react by booing Mesias even more. Wagner feuding with the Legion makes sense, if only for getting the crowd to react a way they want and expect.

Another thing I’m completely lost on – did they set up this match by saying any WagnerManaicas getting involved would be fired? Did they changed and I missed it, or did they just ignore their own stips?
