The Rush/Park Violence

Lucha Libre BOOM 2015/6/27

Rush & Mr. Niebla vs. LA Park & Hijo del LA Park

Very fun match and quite noteworthy due to Rush working a blood brawl, something he can’t do in CMLL, he also took and gave chairshots, another thing that’s verboten in CMLL. Niebla and Park’s son were really sidekicks here, all they did was filling ring time when Rush and Park were busy selling beatings. Niebla was truly awful once again, seriously, fuck that guy already. Fuck him in his ear! Parkito was mostly good, his armdrags and rope bouncing looked good, he also hit a great tope and wonderful plancha into the crowd, so yeah, he did his part well.

Obviously the main story here was two surly brawlers from different eras beating the shit out of each other. I don’t think I’ve ever seen better rudo stalling than what Rush did at the beginning of this match. Not even the endless “PUTO!” and “PUTA MADRE!” heckles from Park and the fans could make him change his mind, he was just enjoying being a total dickbag. Rush bleeding hard was such a stunning visual, Park did his usual thing with blood and shit, Rush did the mask-ripping part, there were hard suplexes, heavy smacks and chops, attacks on the ref, etc. All in all, good match and something I hope is just a prelude to their potential singles match. Now, that’d be so fucking sweet!

***1/2
