CMLL 2015/5/5

Terrible, Rey Bucanero, Vangelis vs. Ingobernables (Rush, Sombra, Mascara)

This was a solid, hard-hitting brawl that could’ve been much better if it actually got some time, because all three falls were too short here. At least in tercera Rush and Terrible did a surly tribute to their great feud from few years ago.

**3/4

CMLL 2015/5/1

16-MAN CIBERNETICO por Torneo Rey del Aire 2015: Sombra, Stuka Jr., Delta, Triton, Dragon Lee, Gran Guerrero, Puma, Virus vs. Fuego, Tiger, Kamaitachi, Angel de Oro, Misterioso Jr., Cavernario, Guerrero Maya Jr., Niebla Roja

This one had its problems but overall it was fun and perky, the finishing run with Sombra and Stuka left was particularly awesome.

***3/4

CMLL 2015/5/8

Mistico, Atlantis, Rush vs. Thunder, Negro Casas, Kamaitachi

Yes, Thunder is the captain of his trio. And yes, he was good in this one, pacing himself well and finally realizing that minimalism is awesome, he was damn fine in using smoke & mirrors with Rush. Speaking of Rush, he didn’t look out of place in the tecnico team and he still got to be his usual self. Kamaitachi totally belongs in CMLL main event scene and I really hope Atlantis/Casas leads to a big singles match, their chemistry is super.

***3/4

CMLL 2015/5/8

Mephisto vs. Volador Jr.

Basically, this was an every Volador match ever: short falls 1 and 2, long and “epic” tercera loaded with big moves, dives, topes, kickouts, etc. He also watches Lucha Underground judging by his Johnny Mundo pants.

**1/2

CMLL 2015/5/19

MATCH RELAMPAGO: Guerrero Maya Jr. vs. Virus

You know what you get with Maya and Virus, this was another great match from these two. Virus always finds new ways to make his lightning matches different from each other, and he did it again here. Maya is slowly but surely getting out of shape in midsection and it’s really sad to see, but deep down I can’t blame him, he’s getting very little chances to shine in CMLL.
