recap

This show was sweet as Tinieblas’ smoking jacket.

rudos mocking tecnico poses = always a win

Oriental & Tinieblas Jr. vs PR Flyer & San Juan Kid: fun match! This was more about Tinieblas and Oriental looking good than specifically about the PR Flyers; they were enjoyable, but the rudo guys felt more like a team that’s worked together for decades here, which is the idea. This angle feel likes it should lead to a routh team in the tag title match, but the taping didn’t make that much sense.

Sydistiko London, always willing to flip on his head

Marco Corleone vs Sydistiko: the kind of Marco showcase they needed to do if Marco is meant to be the central star of this group. Sydistiko made him look good, Marco got to do this flashy trademark stuff.

unexpected violence

Magno vs RJ Brewer [mask vs hair]: This worked much better than I had figured. Magno did not look in the greatest shape and RJ has never done much for me, but the two together made this match work well. RJ was solid, Magno pulled out stuff I didn’t expect to see from him. Not a must go out of you way to see this match, both worth watching if you have a chance.
