CMLL Guadalajara on Teleformula #5 (07/31/2010)

taped Arena Coliseo Guadalajara, 07/06/2010 – well, kind of.

Los Angels

The crowd seemed a lot more full (definitely) and a lot louder (subjectively) for the main event than the opener, and I could not figure it out. Maximo and Garza are guys who are better if you don’t see them every week, but still. The way the main event, it seem to set up a rematch for the follow week either. It wasn’t until I was about to post it that I rechecked Fuego’s recap that I realized this was a combination of two tapings. Opener was 07/06, main event was actually the rematch from 07/13. (The 07/06 version of this match ended in a DQ, the recap of the 07/13 matches this finish exactly.) Not sure what that means for this upcoming week.

This was basically the Angels doing the same matches they do everywhere, and the main event guys doing the matches you’d expect. Yoshihashi seems lost at times, but not so bad to alone justify his (apparent) ban from DF. I do wonder if some of it is this Japaneses guy paying the price for the last Japanese guy not working so well, just like Taichi might have benefited from No Limit working out.
