Arena Puebla Ketchup

CMLL 2015/09/07

Molotov, Lestat, Tigre Rojo Jr. vs. Toro Bill Jr., Rey Apocalipsis, King Jaguar

Relatively fun, albeit heatless for the most of time. Bill and Apocalipsis are a fun act.

**3/4


CMLL 2015/09/07

Blue Panther Jr., Dragon Lee, Esfinge vs. Sagrado, Misterioso, Kamaitachi

Good match that wasn’t great due to Dragon Lee and Kamaitachi being limited to the supporting cast roles. Every second they interacted with each other was pure magic.

***1/4


CMLL 2015/09/07

Mistico, Atlantis, Titan vs. Rey Escorpion, Rey Bucanero, Vangelis

Good match, although kinda by-the-numbers. Basic work, with the tecnicos displaying their flashy offense and the rudos being dickish brawlers. Rey Escorpion’s IDGAF finish was awesome.

Blue Panther Jr., Rey Cometa, The Panther vs. Cancerberos del Infierno (Virus, Cancerbero, Raziel)

Beautiful match, especially in terms of execution and technique displaying, everything was smooth, slick, clean and quite captivating. Virus and The Panther faced off once again and it was doozy, meanwhile Virus’ two pals are a must-see act in CMLL. Alos, dat Rey Cometa guy, yeah, it’s so good to have him back.

****1/4

Campeonato Nacional Semicompleto: Atlantis vs. Mephisto ©

Quick two falls and long tercera based on dramatic nearfalls. Yep… The most ordinary CMLL title match there is, but these two somehow pulled it off via some rather neat sequences and suspense bits in tercera. Good match overall, but not something that will make must-see lists.

  1. You ever thought of making a 5-star rasslin matches list? Would be interested in seeing your whole list! Especially for ROH & AJPW.

    1. I might do it some day, but it'd be quite time-consuming. Or maybe not, lol, I don't know... As you may notice, it'd be a large list, because every year I rate at least 6-7 matches five stars.
