Mesias/Park x2

So, I re-watched the two Mesias/Park matches and it’s still quite an enjoyable stuff with one common flaw – kind of weakly executed finishes, especially the first one. The ref looking the other way was some poor timing, and the same ref getting kicked in the head in the second match was very far-fetched. So yeah, the endings could’ve been better and it definitely affected the star ratings. Now onto the matches, they’re two awesome brawls with tons of good stuff in there, both had glorious Park control sessions to start the match where he’d just decimate Mesias with chairs, stiff punches and nasty suplexes. Then we’d get Mesias coming back and hitting big hope spots but also getting revenge on the LA by chairshotting him silly across the head. Seriously, though, those tight sluggish sounds of chair connecting with head, as well as floor connecting with back and hips… Brrr! Creepy and truly unsettling. The TripleMania match has what is probably the best plancha ever executed, courtesy of Mesias, seriously that thing was beautiful, and Park did one killer tope that puts most of young luchadors to big shame. Naturally, Park’s face was shown almost in its entirety in both matches, lol, the only thing keeping it from full unmasking was blood. The best thing about both matches was the atmosphere, it was dark, gloomy and gritty, Hell on Earth right there, it helped to put over both guys character traits, especially Park’s murdering menace and Mesias’ gladiator-like aura.
