Show Assessment: 2 really really good matches and eh |
Match By Match:
First Match: While he was stalling outside, Tarzan Boy's foot got caught
in a cable and he threatened the camera man with violence, which was funny. Then
he got a crushing knee to the head from IV and it was not so funny. Magica went
for Demon's mask in the third fall and got it untied. Mascara Magica accidentally
(?) punched a ref's foot. He didn't look all that sorry. Weird stretch where
they were just leaning Villano on the ropes and talking to him - just before
they started the babyface comeback. Magica took a weird (but cool) bump into the
side of the apron while halfway in the ring. Villanos repaid the mask untying by
untying Fuereza's - it totally got knocked off by a punch and he tries using it
to cover his face but wasn't that successful - his partners helped him stall to
get it back on. Tecnicos were cruising to a win till Tarzan Boy's low blow
turned it around.
Second Match: Niebla must've lost a bet to be in this match. Scorpio
tried to slam Super Porky but Porky ended up on top. In between the first and
second fall, Shocker strolled out with a Muppet's Animal doll to mock
Emilio and grabbed a seat in the crowd. Director was more interested in his
exploits (playing with the doll, going over to talk to Emilio's girlfriend to
draw Emilio out of the match) then the match itself.
Third Match: You would not believe that he used to be Psicosis unless
someone told you - short hair, different look. Weird. The ring announcer
accidentally calls Black Tiger "Black Warrior" and has to fix it. Rey
stole Scott Steiner's pop can headdress. Tiger and Warrior didn't wait for
introductions to finish before beating each other up. Black Warrior has the
awesomest tope of all awesome topes. This match is play by play worthy, which
isn't that big of a surprise.
First Caida: Even before we get started, Black Tiger and Black Warrior meet
on the ramp and rumble, because they want to kill each other, but the rest sit
back and wath. Tiger gets the better of it, working over the left leg before
thrown punches to the head. In the ring, the teams try to psych the other side
out, and the rudos try form a wall around the ramp entrance so Tiger and
Warrior can go at - that is, if Tiger hadn't backed off and a ref gotten in
the way. Warrior's paying attention to Tiger and whatever he'll do next, which
allows Nicho to sneak attack him from behind and push him into a Tiger
superkick. Now the tecincos really want to get the rudos but they're all
outside the ring and I guess that's too far to go. Rudos pose on the ropes and
turnbuckle for quite a bit and Antifaz bounces off the ropes to at least get
their attention back to the match and maybe sneak a hit if Nicho didn't move.
Tiger doing the Rock pose. Finnaly everyone's set up, but the rudos have no
man in and are getting the count, but they don't really care so they just
break the count a couple times till they're ready.
Finally, Virus finnaly decides to start, with Antifaz standing is his own
corner ready to go.He charges out, sliding dropkick but Virus dives and
rolls over. Virus off the ropes, over, under, wheel kick (nothing actually
connects.) Quick celebration, as you might if you could knock someone down
without hitting them. Open hand slaps, then a corner whip, but it's quickly
reversed, Antifaz charge comes up empty but he quickly jumps to sitting on the
top rope. Virus tries to stun him with a slap but gets a kick that turns him
around, then Antifaz's weird second rope headscissors. A standard spinning
headscissors follows and Virus is out of the ring. Antifaz teases the dive but
elects to do his quebrada fake out and muscle pose. Because he has muscles.
Felino and well Juvie's thinking about it but he really doesn't want to get
in - so Felino slaps him across the face and now Juvie's good. Felino poses,
and everyone ends up in the ring. We get a couple crowd shots, which makes me
think they're covering some cut up, and by the time we get back, Warrior and
Tiger are on opposite ends of a ring apron with Warrior looking like he'd
really want to charge him and Felino and Juvie are the only ones in the ring.
Tiger teases walking out, Warrior is asked to go back to his corner, and Tiger
goes back to his (consoled by Juvie.) Now Juvie and Felino go at it, with
Felino diving and hitting his left knee. Juvie is stumbling but still up
right, so Felino puts on a headlock, Juvie pushes him off, Felino comes back
off the far ropes, over, under, a dropkick to the left knee. Warrior is
pumped. Off the ropes, pause to hold the ropes, Juvie charges with a
clothesline and it's ducked under as Felino goes the other other way, and back
again for a clothesline that gets Felino halfway out of the ring and Juvie all
the way out. Felino points up, then goes to his corner to get out.
Rey and Nicho. Rey tries a quick dropkick but Nicho sidesteps. Rey gets up
but stumbles into the corner, chop, corner whip, rebound clothesline. We get a
replay of that Felino clothesline to note that Juvie's back went into the
ropes first and then he got lifted over the top. Back to live action, Nicho
tries to push Rey off the ropes but Rey leans back awkwardly and his head
slips under the top rope. The top rope ends up in his face and Rey sells it
nicely before getting whipped out. Nicho with a somewhat lame clothesline
attempt that misses, then watches as Rey comes rolling off the far ropes,
jumping on him in Victory Roll position and spins around into a 'rana, no
cover. Nicho recovers and charges, tilt-a-whirl but Nicho lands on his feet,
Nicho's follow up clothesline misses but Rey's open hand slap is dead on.
Whip, but instead of releasing, Rey grabs Nicho by the head and throws/slides
him underneath the bottom rope all the way out to the floor. Classic
Psychosis. Juvie leans in the ring and points at Rey, Rey points back and
seems to say "another time."
Antifaz rolls in, so Black Tiger elects to jump in. Antifaz motions to the
rowdy tecinco section before he gets going - unfortunately, Black Tiger gets
going a little quicker and hits the dropkick to the left knee. Tiger grabs
Antifaz's left arm with his own right arm, pulls him up, chops him down, pulls
him up, chops him down, pulls him up, chops him down. With Antifaz out of it,
Tiger turns and spits at Warrior, who wants in to take care of him right now,
but he's cut off by the ref. Tiger, satisfied with getting the better of him,
goes back to Antifaz, swings, and misses. Antifaz gets a series of open and
slaps, whip, Tiger with the tilt-a-whirl but Antifaz lands on his feet (but
not as well as Nicho just did), Tiger's clothesline misses and then he charges
right into a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. A standing enzuiguri continues
Antifaz's momentum turn, and he goes to the second rope headscissors to take
Tiger all the way out. Antifaz seems to think about doing a dive, but really
just provides a screen so Tiger can't see Black Warrior coming off the far
ropes with his super cool bullet tope till it's far too late to do get out of
the way. Warrior takes Tiger, himself, and about eight seats out. (Luckily,
the first row of people were smart enough to get out of the way, lest they be
killed.)
Before anyone gets a chance to catch their breath, the match picks up in
the ring with Rey and Juvie. The crowd seemed to be happy to see Rey back off
most, and cheered for this particular matchup. Juvie with knife edge chops,
but Rey ducks under one (only Rey), whip, reversed by Juvie, Rey comes off the
far ropes and starts with a spinning front facelock and ends up hooking his
legs into a spinning headscissors. Juvie is up but disoriented, so Rey goes
for a German suplex. Juvie has enough into him to block, then let loose with
elbows from both sides to break the waistlock. Juvie reaches both hands
between his legs, trying to grab and perhaps trip up Rey's legs, but Rey sees
it coming and grabs Juvie's hands with his own, flipping Juvie inside out and
on his back. Rey quickly in front of Juvie, then bridges back, grabbing
Juvie's legs and forcing him down to the mat for a one two three count. (I
believe this was used into the aborted best of five series, but I can not
recall right now.)
As Rey was going for the cover, Virus saw the situation and attempted to
come in the ring, but was quickly cut off by Antifaz. Antifaz ducks a
clothesline and misses one of his own. Virus goes off the far ropes and tries
a body scissors, but Virus catches him, locks on a waistlock and flings him
backwards, bridging for a one two three count. That's a wheelbarrow suplex, if
I recall. Two men eliminated, but because this is a quatros, we need
three (or the captain) so the tecincos need one more victory..
That comes quickly - while we were watching that, Nicho had some how
deposited Felino on the top rope, and is now going for a top rope 'rana, but
Felino was apparently not as out of it as Nicho had hoped, as he easily
reverses to a second rope powerbomb and that's an easy one two three. Antifaz
was nice enough to come help cover. Nicho is dead. The refs raise Antifaz and
Felino's hands (the other two busy outside the ring - perhaps Warrior was
fighting with Tiger), then all four. The rudos stagger and recover on the
outside, though Nicho takes a while to roll out and get there.
Replays of the killer bullet tope, Rey's unique pinning combination,
Antifaz's suplex and Felino's powerbomb. We do get to see that Felino had
missed a corner splashing axhandle previously to when we picked Nicho and him
up.
Still during the fall break, we find that Warrior unwisely went after Tiger
on the outside and just got a massive shot into the ringpost. Virus, Juvie and
Tiger take a turn stomping on him (Nicho out on the other side of the ring
still feeling the pain from the powerbomb.)
Segunda Caida: Warrior gets in the ring, despite obviously not being in
good shape, and Tiger wastes no time in taking advantage of it. Another
superkick and Warrior is down. Snap mare, into a chinlock position so Tiger
can enlarge the eye holes in Warrior's mask. He does a pretty good job of it,
and starts to pick up Warrior by his mask before slamming him to the mat.
Warrior is out of it, and a lighting quick second rope moonsault doesn't help
- cover one two three. They're captains, so we're done just like that. Tiger
goes back to the mask as Rey comes into to complain. Juvie comes into to antagonize
(he does it well), and Antifaz tries to push Tiger away from Warrior. Rudos
gets their hands raise, and Warrior unwisely (again!) charges at Tiger. He's
ticked, and this is a horrible time to go to replays, because Warrior is in
the wrong neighborhood. Replay of the nice moonsault. As we go to break, it
looks like the fight has picked up between falls, and the rudo are definitely getting
the better of it. The last thing we see is Juvie laying out Felino with a
punch on the ramp...
...so it's good that the first thing we see coming back is Juvie standing
over Felino right where we left them. Juvie's blocked off attacking by the
tecinco ref (I assume), but that doesn't really do much for the three other
battles. Nicho does a great Falcon Arrow on Rey and Virus stomps Antifaz hard
into the mat. Everyone else heads out of the ring as Black Tiger has Black
Warrior on the top rope and goes up as well - top rope (snapping) superplex!
Awesome. We take a look at the ring girl in the middle of it all and Tiger
tries to get the cover to win it, but the fall hasn't actually started yet.
Nearby, Juvie stands on the second rope for more pressure as he chokes Felino
in a corner. Virus and Rey exchange slaps on the outside, Virus getting in a
hard one that knocks Rey silly. Antifaz is down and Nicho is in the area.
Terecera Caida: Juvie works on Felino with kicks in the ring, while Nicho
hits a dropkick on Antifaz out of the ring. Looks like Juvie hit the Juvie
Driver while we were looking the other way. Nicho is warned to get into the
ring, while Tiger makes a cover on Felino, one two he's up. Tiger might have
tried to pull Felino up there and he got up anyway; it looked a little
muddled. Tiger waves Nicho over, and he takes control in the ring.
Quick tag to Virus, slam by Nicho, Virus with the catapult elbow drop.
Felino quickly rolls himself out before Virus can follow up, so he starts
attacking Rey as he's coming in the ring. Armbar, hard knee to the gut. Virus
doesn't seem to do many flashy things but the things he does, he does hard.
Whip, super high flapjack, Virus pushes Rey down as he falls back to Earth.
Rey recovers to his knees, but gets obliterated with a running dropkick to the
head. Cover, one two no shoulder up. Antifaz is a second late but in
regardless, chopping away. Whip, diving forearm. Snap mare, and Antifaz locks
in a standing surfboard.
Unfortunately for him, Antifaz has his back towards the rudo corner,
allowing Nicho to slip in undetected and nail him with a spinning heel kick.
Nicho taunts Felino, then gets a slam on Antifaz. Going up - Tijuana Jam!
Nicho looks really good here. Nicho covers but Felino breaks it up quickly.
Felino forces Nicho in the corner and slaps him hard in the face many many
times. Corner whip, follow in clothesline. Corner whip, reversed by Nicho, and
he hits the follow in clothesline. Now it's his turn to hit his hard slaps to
the face. Felino has enough and takes down Nicho. Felino grabs Nicho's left
leg and yanks it down to the mat hard and lets go to do it again.
Juvie saves his friend with a kick to Felino's left leg before he can do
any damage. Quickly, both Nicho and Felino are heading out of the ring and Rey
takes his place in the ring. The crowd reacts strongly again to this matchup.
So do they. Juvie with a kick, chop, chop, whip, Rey slides underneath, Juvie
charges and Rey gives him a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Juvie charges again and
again receives a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Again! Cover one two Tiger breaks
it up. Juvie grabs Rey by the head, then slowly backs him into the ropes,
reversed, Juvie tries for the dropkick to the knee but Rey moves out of the
way, kick by Rey, powerbomb try but Juvie flips out and lands on his feet,
kick, powerbomb! Both men are down and covering each other with a leg - one
two both shoulders up!
Virus calmly comes in, stomps Rey, picks him up in a fireman's carry and
drops him forward. Going to the top - moonsault! One two broken up by
Warrior.
Virus rolls out, and in comes Black Tiger. The crowd reacts strongly here
too. They have words, then Tiger hits a dropkick. Whip, reversed by Warrior,
split legged flapjack, almost the X-Factor with a lift before hand. Warrior
off the ropes and a dropkick to the face. Now he's going revenge, pulling the
mask, while Tiger desperately tries to get free. Felino comes in and holds
Tiger's legs as Warrior pulls the mask. Felino is eventually warned out of the
ring and Warrior stops, trying to get the crowd railed. Tiger is tired and
needs the ropes to get up. Warrior looks at the crowd, then looks at Tiger
charging him, catches him, and drops him over the top rope on the floor. Nicho
charges over and he gets hiptossed to the floor. Warrior off the far ropes -
another bullet tope to take them both out, with Warrior landing on his feet
and holding the other two up. Rey with a springboard somersault plancha on the
rudos on the floor!
In the ring, Virus comes in and gets clotheslined by Antifaz. Off the
ropes, over, sunset flip but Virus breaks free, off the ropes, elbow drop.
Again with the forward fireman's carry drop, and a standing moonsault for the
cover one two no. Virus off the ropes, Victory roll is stopped and Antifaz
holds him in position for a Felino missile dropkick! Antifaz sets up and sets
Felino on the way - assisted high dropkick and Virus is swatted out of the
ring - running corkscrew plancha by Antifaz!
Juvie nails Felino with a spin kick as he's watching that plancha hit.
Kicks to the gut, off the ropes, Felino tries a powerbomb, Juvie tries to
reverse it into something but it fails and Juvie ends up landing on his feet,
Felino unhurt. Juvie quickly works in another spin kick to stun Felino, then
off the far ropes, Felino with a hiptoss that takes them both to the floor.
The only two guys ready to come back in are Tiger and Warrior, which Tiger
really doesn't seem in favor of. Nor the "Warrior" chant. Tiger
makes the first move, charging with a spin kick, and comes up only with
turnbuckle. Warrior charges, but Tiger sidesteps and smashes him into the
turnbuckle. Forearm to the back, then pushing him on to the second rope, Tiger
loads Warrior up on his shoulders and tries for the spin around powerbomb, but
Warrior reverses to 'rana, with cradle, one two NO. Both need time to recover.
Warrior up first, off the ropes, right into a fireman's carry - Death Valley
Driver and harsh! One two Rey breaks it up with a flying legdrop! Rey checks
on Warrior, who tells him he needs a moment to recover from the nasty shot his
head just took, and Rey takes his place in the battle.
Tiger chops Rey before he can do all that much, corner whip, Tiger with a
splash but no one's home. Tiger ends up beached on the top rope, and Rey
forces him to stay there as he goes up as well - reverse 'rana! Isn't that
Silver King's move? Fantastic.
And then Juvie nails him with a picture perfect dropkick. Rey out of the
ring, Juvie going up - and Felino crotching him. I guess that's part of the
"low blow is a DQ" rule, because Felino hurries out of the ring and
hides, pretending he had nothing to do with what just happened. Back in the
ring, Warrior is back up and Tiger is after him - charging clothesline is
turned into the DDT that won the Legend of the Silver Mask tournament. Warrior
locks on a standing figure four and lifts up Tiger by his wrists. The tecincos
keep the rest of the rudos at bay, and Tiger has no choice but to give.
Tecincos win, but Warrior is too spent to celebrate. At least right away.
Tecincos celebrate, while the rudos sneak in to recover Silver king. Replay
of King being thrown to the floor, Nicho to the floor and the bullet tope.
We get words from the winners. Rey is proud of Black Warrior, and annoys
the rudos enough that they come to the floor. Warrior talks trash about Tiger
and doesn't appear to be happy and the shape his mask is in. Nicho holds Tiger
back. Antifaz wants to get words in but the microphone keeps getting pulled
from him. Here's replay of Rey's dive, Antifaz's dive, the DDT, the
submission, and Juvie getting crotched. Rudos celebrate in the ring.
Fourth Match: Silva slips on the second rope while trying to pose to the
crowd. He blames the ref. Capos love the team moves - the quadruple dropkick to
the head is nice. Silva as a giant is incredible limited - reminds me a lot of
the Big Show and I bet that doesn't really make me alone.
Fifth Match: I figured this needed commentary too. Of note, after the
usual high profile title match ceremonies, we notice a "Saludos A
Promociones Baja California. Tijuana #1." We last saw this match on the
first CMLL report I did, 9/18/01, and the titles were held up (or something like
that) because Satanico dressed up as Mascara Magica and interfered to try to
cost Guerrero and Buccanero the match.
Primera Caida: Ultimo and Santo circle. Lockup, and it's even for a bit,
then Santo with an armdrag out, into an armbar. Guerrero with a headscissors
to reverse. Santo breaks out, both their feet, Santo with the single leg take
down and a single leg grapevine. After a beat, Ultimo turns it into a cross
armbreaker. Santo tries to bridge out of it and moves it enough to grab the
ropes. Break, they're both up. Santo with a leg trip, headlock, reversed into
the headscissors, cover one two shoulder up by Santo. Both up, circling again.
Lockup, Santo with a waistlock, take down, front face lock, armbar by
Santo, Guerrero rolls through out and out, single leg trip, picking Santo up
by his legs but Santo reverses it into a headstand headscissors. Both up,
circle. Reaching for each other's hands, double wristlock, Guerrero turning
into a hammerlock. Take down, Guerrero goes for a knee breaker but he doesn't
have a tight enough hold so Santo is able to roll on to his stomach to prevent
the hold. Guerrero rolls on top of Santo to keep him there, quickly turning it
into an Indian Deathlock. Guerrero lets go but quickly gets a front facelock.
Santo rolls over and reverses to a headlock of his own, but in the process
puts both shoulders down on the mat, one two Santo lets go for the headlock to
avoid the pin. Guerrero tries to force both arms down for the pin one two
Santo is too strong. Now they have a double wristlock on as they battle to
their feet, trying to out maneuver each other, and Guerrero eventually tries a
whip. Santo comes right back with a spinning headscissors into a spinning
armdrag and out Guerrero goes.
Negro and Rey in as we check out a replay of that armdrag. Crowd behind
Casas. Lockup, no Casas goes for the left leg. Leg trip to take down Buccanero
and now a modified half Boston but far too close to the ropes. Casas takes his
time letting go, so Rey reverses into a cradle for one two no. Rey stands up
and forces Casas into the mat for another one two no, then turns it over into
a half Boston. Casas is able to get some leverage and reveres it to a leg hold
of his own, but Rey gets on a chin lock, then turns it into a front facelock.
Casas uses an armbar to get out, into a headlock, off the ropes, shoulderblock
but no one's going down. Both with clotheslines but neither goes down. Rey
with kicks to the right elf, head lock, off the ropes, shoulderblock and now
Casas goes down. kicking the right leg, off the ropes, big boot to the nose.
Off the ropes, big boot caught, Rey escapes, Rey tries a punch but its'
blocked, Casas tries a punch but it's blocked, Rey hits a clothesline. Off the
ropes, dropkick, Casas out.
Rey baits Santo in, then doesn't want him. Now he's ready - kick to the
chest, slaps to the chest. Santo fires back with his own. Whip, reversed,
Santo with a dropkick and Rey is out.
Casas back in, and so is Guerrero. Exchange of chops. Casa goes to the
kicks, left leg ones. Corner whip, charge but Guerrero gets a boot up,
Guerrero charges out and Casas gets in a clothesline. Whip, dropkick to the
left knee. Casas tries to go for the La Majistral, but a kick to stun Ultimo
does seem to work, and Guerrero lifts Casas up by the barred arm, turning into
something like a super back suplex. Cover one two three.
Meanwhile, Rey came in but was no match for Santo, who tried to put Rey in
the camel clutch. However, Rey slipped out from underneath Santo's legs, and
put his own camel clutch on him - Santo has no choice but to give up. Fall to
the rudos, and they are one fall away from winning the titles.
Replay of the winning combinations.
Segunda Caida: Ultimo and Rey are on Santo before the last whistle has
rung. Double whip, double drop toe hold, double elbow drop. Double whip,
double dropkick. Celebratory posing. They do the Steiner pose! Wacky!
Casas attempts to break up the fun, but gets a back elbow before he can get
there. Rey with a sleeper so Ultimo can kick him. Double armbar, double kick
to the stomach, double dropkick to the head. Casas is rolled to the floor.
Santo back in. Double whip, double flapjack. Double dropkick to the head
but Santo moves out of the way! Casas is back in now as well and the tecincos
are coming out strong. Santo with knees and Casas with punches. Santo takes
Rey to the apron with a slap, then runs him into the turnbuckle. Ultimo is
held on the apron for a dropkick, then Casas goes to the outside to hold

Santo, both hit clothesline and Guerrero is slightly better off. He's
staggered and looking at the crowd when Santo trips him up, though. Santo with
the "step on the back of the legs and pull by his hair/mask"
submission, then turns it into a chinlock. A Romero chinlock, I do believe.

it. Santo runs off the far ropes and hits a through the ropes senton on Rey on
the floor! In the ring, Casas finnaly gets the La Majistral on one two three!
Ultimo can't believe it. Rey is out at ringside and gets the ten count - Santo
and Casas win!
Belts awarded, names announced. Words with the champs. Ultimo and Buccanero
come in the ring and congratulate the champions on a battle well fought. Group
pose! Here's some replays. Ultimo and Negro shake hands.
Closing Notes:
1. Not only is Rey supposed to be hanging around for a while, but more
names from the group that went to WCW are supposed to be showing up.
2. Of course Juvie blows a spot. Of course.
3. Three hour episodes are heck to recap, but this was really worth it.
4. The horror stories were all goofy and goofy is find with me.
5. They might actually end the Emilio/Shocker story this year! We can only hope.
