taped @ Plaza De Toros El Pinal, Teziutlan, Puebla, 02/19/2011
Lolita, Mini Charly Manson, Sugi San vs Jennifer Blake, Mini Chessman, Ronin: Lolita, in her debut, seemed like a bigger star than the half dozen of women CMLL has introduced in the last couple years (and most of the women who’ve come thru AAA; it should be noted that Jennifer looked good here as well.) I’m not sure if Lolita is actually better, or if it’s just a fine job of presentation. The CMLL women work full matches, often against people with similar levels of experience, and usually have a bad moment or three. Jennifer and Lolita did four spots, did them well, and got out with a perfect record. One of those performances looks much better on TV.
(though, introducing her with an upskirt shot was not exactly subtle.)
El Elegido & Laredo Kid vs Alan Stone & Chris Stone: Laredo Kid, man of future big AAA plans, has his first match in two months. He has not returned to television since. Fine job! The whole Elegido angle was completely edited out here. It’s kind of amazing Elegido has lasted so long under this administration, given all the times total disinterest is shown. Even if they relent and allow they need have a guy like Elegido, it’s surprising they haven’t just found someone they like to take over spot. I don’t believe they’re actually putting up Alan’s hair vs Elegido’s mask (though I guess maybe they may do something with the mixed tag titles?)
Extreme Tiger & Jack Evans vs Silver King & Último Gladiador: Surprisingly good match; Maniacos did not go on long expedition for weapons, cruiserweights did nifty stuff, crowd into the match, good finish, and they actually remembered to follow up on this.
El Mesías vs Aerostar, Electroshock, Súper Fly in a AAA’s Rey de Reyes Tournament semifinal: A rough day for Super Fly, thwarted by Electroshock again. It was really dumb of Aerostar to work together with a man he’s supposed to hate so much, but I guess he learned that lesson the hard way.
Dr. Wagner Jr., Monster Clown, Murder Clown, Psycho Clown vs Damián 666, Halloween, Super Crazy, X-Fly: Typical brawl that they’ve been doing for months and will be doing for months more. We’ve advanced to the point where Arturo Rivera knows he’s getting one of the Clowns names wrong, but has yet to remember the clown’s correct name. Maybe Antonio Pena was a genius for sticking with colors?
Mesias sure bled a lot for having no obvious wound.
