Some Brand New LUCHA

So yeah, hello everyone (or no one, let's face it), this is gonna be a blog about pro-wrestling, and it's gonna be totally random. Mostly lucha, puro and indies, maybe some WWE/TNA/ROH.

Salud.

La Sombra, Marco Corleone, Atlantis vs. Shocker, Rey Escorpion, Polvora

So, Sombra is on the tecnico team here, and he has a major beef with Shocker now, it seems, their sessions and heavy smacks across the face is what made this match so good. Shocker took his mask after the match, and it seems Mask vs. Hair is a lock for down the road, which is totally fapworthy, and has potential to be better than Shocker/Rush. The rest of the crew was just… there, with the exception of Marco Corleone, dude has some serious brawler potential. Someone find him a hate feud already, ffs.

***1/2

Negro Casas vs. Rush

Goddamn it, Rooosh is fantastic, he sells the feud with Casas incredibly well, you get the feeling he’s legit trying to MURDER the old motherfucker. Heavy smacks, hard stomps, superb heat, etc. Just a big plethora of stiff lucha, and all that in just six minutes. Yep, just six minutes, try to find a better sub-5 minute match from this year, I dare you.

***3/4

Rush, La Mascara, Titan vs. Negro Casas, Shocker, Felino

Yet another heated Rush/Casas trio, goddamn I love this feud. These two are basically trying to beat each other silly, and watching Rush stomping mercilessly on 55 year old Casas is fucking TITS, he’s definitely one of the best heels in the industry. Scratch that, he’s THE best. His running dropkick to the corner is batshit vicious, and is giving Shibata a serious run for his money. Titan also embraced some of Roooshness here, awesome layout from him as well, Casas was money as usual, but the killer from the shadows in the match was Shocker. Dude was crazy, angry and violent, which is much appreciated. This was an excellent all-out brawl, and while I’m not a “blood=better” guy, damn, this would’ve been a total masterpiece with some juice on Casas or Shocker.

NWA Middleweight & Welterweight (Double) Titles: Volador Jr. © vs. La Sombra ©

Very disappointing, especially considering Volador’s hot streak before the match. Primera and segunda were quite good, but tercera felt kind of dry and emotionless for me, although the crowd was hot ‘n’ heavy, but I just wasn’t feeling it, too mechanic they were. Solid title match, but not good, when it’s all said and done. From the technical side, they did some fabulous and jawdropping stuff, some stiff moves were thrown around, but like I said, it was dry overall.

**3/4
