Star Jr. moonsault

Recapped: 02/16/2017

What happened: Ephesto pinned Volador twice to get a title shot next week. That’s about it.

Also, there’s a new Roshfrans mat. Or at least it seemed new to me. It’s very black. The CMLL logo is now on screen the entire show (which is how it is often on the NJPW World version of this show.)

What was good: a This was one of those shows where I rated pretty much everything OK. They’re always different levels of OK, but they’re all in the same range where you don’t really need to go back to watch them.

Where can I watch it: It’s on CMLL’s channel. Read More

this gets better when Blue Jr. stays out of it

Recapped: 02/08/2017

What happened: Rey Bucanero cheated to beat Stuka. That’s it

What was good: I liked the Panther trios and the Stuka/Bucanero match, but nothing that strongly.

Where can I watch it: It’s on CMLL’s YouTube

Triton Special

Recapped: 02/02/2017

What happened:  Rey Bucanero unmasked Stuka to set up a singles match next week (even if Bucanero doesn’t want it.) Casas family maintained a hegemony over the Panther family with another win. I remembered the world hegemony and used it correctly in a sentence.

What was good: The Casas/Panther trios match is as good as it every time, but though I liked the 01/06 bout better. On this show, I actually thought the Raziel/Triton was the best (or at least fresher) match up, but the crowd did not care at all about that one and got into the family trios much more.

Adonis barely stays in one piece going out, so Maya mows him over

Recapped: 01/25/2017

What happened: Rey Bucanero and Stuka’s names got pulled out of the hat, so now they’re feuding. Rey seemed to be trying, but not enough for me to want to watch the build up trios match.

What was good: The fourth and fifth matches were good, though maybe I’ve subliminal put Tuesday matches on a curve now. The second match was an abomination.

CMLL Martes de Glamour: 2017-01-17

Rey Cometa

Recapped: 1/17/2017

What happened: Pierroth pulled Diamante Azul’s mask to beat him (so I guess that feud started here.) Nothing else.

What was good: The semimain was enjoyable, with the rest being skippable Tuesday fare.

the sabu point backfires!

Recapped: 01/11/2017

What happened: Negro Casas cheated to defeat heavyweight champion Maximo, in an outcome which is not setting up a heavyweight title match.

What was good: The fourth match is the only match worth watching. The Negro Casas/Maximo match was not much.

Where can I watch it: It’s on CMLL’s channel. Read More
