AAA #897 (08/08)

taped 07/12, aired 08/08

Aerostar, Laredo Kid, Super Fly vs Billy Boy, Decnnis, Tito Santana II – This was pretty good, though not as great as some of the openers early this year. Super Fly didn’t look as good as he has in the past here. Hurt? Successfully screwed up?

Charly Manson & Jack Evans vs Chessman & Teddy Hart – slightly better than Jack/Teddy, because you had two guys getting beat up forever instead of one, but still…

El Elegido, Extreme Tiger, Marco Corleone vs Kenzo Suzuki, Oriental, Sugi – despite the vignette lead up, which made Sugi seem like a joke, he looked really good here and they got him over as something meaningful. Beating the cruiserweight champion doesn’t mean anything, because that title doesn’t mean anything right now, but the finish was sure memorable. A good start for the trio.

El Mesías & La Parka Jr. vs Dr. Wagner Jr. & Silver King – again, Wagner & Silver work as rudos and get cheered anyway. I thought AAA might be doing something where maksed Zorro is good, unmasked Zorro is evil, and we’re not quite sure if Zorro has a split personality or if there’s a second Zorro running around, but instead they decided to make this an incomprehensible mess of an angle. I guess that’s one of doing it.
