Guadalajara Show for 2/3/07

Guadalajara Show For Feb. 3rd, 2007

Once again the date is an approximation. It should be that weekend. The anchors are two young guys constantly goofing around they take some getting use to.

Anthrax, Evola, Carlo Roggi vs Danger, Depradator, Perro Loco

3rd Fall: The rudos won the first fall not shown, the tecnicos the second, here Anthrax, Evola, and Carlo win this one only the ending of which is show, with Anthax and Evola having Danger and Depredator in camel clutches. Evola challenged Depredator to a hair vs hair.

Emilio Charles Jr., Pierroth, Hijo De Pierroth vs Stuka Jr., Mascara Purpura, El Gallo

1st Fall: This fall is picked in progress with the rudos already into thier beat down, Purpura is getting beaten up, they give him a gang facebuster. Stuka is gets beaten up a bit, then Gallo. Purpura is Alabama slammed by Pierroth. All 6 are fighting outside the ring, with Pierroth and Stuka in the aisle. All 6 are counted out of the ring, nobody made it back in, so this fall had no winner. Rare ending for a fall.

2nd Fall: The tecnicos are still getting stomped. Hijo de Pie is trying to unmask Stuka on the top rope. Hijo punched in the belly and Stuka removed his mask his full face was visible. On the other side, Emilio was trying to unmask Purpura. No one seemed interested in unmasking Gallo, who put on a brave front, but got beaten down right away. This goes on a while until Gallo is thrown into the ropes, Stuka catches him, and Gallo drop kicks Emilio starting the comeback. Purpura does a spring board missile drop kick to Pierroth. Purpura gets Pierroth's belt away from and him and whips him with it. All 6 go and fight outside the ring again, Uh Oh, and yes all 6 are counted outside again. If nobody won either fall why a 3rd fall?

3rd Fall: Gallo puts on some moves on Pierroth, this match has settled down. Gallo gave Hijo De Pie two quebradoras. Purpura starts kicking Emilio who does his spit his tooth out spot. Hijo De Pie and Emilio moved out the way of drop kicks by Purpura and Gallo, then lock on abdominal stretches on them. Stuka however fakes a foul by Pierroth and is awared the DQ win. The announcers are unique they were laughing through most of this match.

Tarzan Boy, Cien Caras Jr., Mascara Ano 2000 vs El Sagrado, Hijo De Lizmark, Shocker

1st Fall: Cien Jr. and Sagrado start it off, trading moves. Ano and Liz Jr. get in and stall big time. Liz Jr. gets an armlock but Tarzan kicks him off. They brawl around ringside for a while, Tarzan bites Sagrado and stands on him. They drop elbows on Liz Jr. then all 3 give him drop kicks. All 3 rudos pin him. Cien Jr. gives Sagrado a missile drop kick, and Tarzan pinned him to win this fall. Shocker gets beaten on, even the rudo ref was holding him.

2nd Fall: The tecnico comeback had begun as this fall started, Sagrado kicks Cien Jr. in the head. Liz Jr gives Ano a quebradora and a sidewalk slam and pins him. Sagrado did a code red on Cien Jr. and pins him. Tarzan was running from Shocker, and Shocker was threatening the rudo ref. Not long.

3rd Fall: Also picked up in progress. Tarzan and Shocker are fighting, Shocker monkey flipped Tarzan right out of the ring. Shocker did a stunner to Ano, then a facebuster to Cien Jr., Sagrado does a flying scissors to Tarzan, then another to Cien Jr., then an enzuigiri to Ano. Another big stall job, for a couple of minutes they just stood around doing nothing. Liz Jr. did a sunset flip to Cien Jr. who reversed it but got kicked accidently by Ano. Liz Jr. deals out superkicks to all 3 rudos. Shocker gives Tarzan a running bulldog. Shocker was having a good time, he kept dancing around while Tarzan was trying to fight him. Sagrado and Ano go down, Cien Jr. and Liz Jr. were going to do the star thing before they realized they were opposite teams. Liz Jr. and Sagrado do topes to Cien Jr. and Ano. Tarzan tries a huricanrana but Shocker rolled through it and pins Tarzan for the win.

That wraps up this show, not an espcially good one. That's the end of this tape, I gotta wait for the next tape to arrive, which I'm assured is on the way.

Guadalajara CMLL Show for 1/28/07

Guadalajara CMLL Show for 1/28/07

Here's the Guadalajara show as promised, not sure about the date, an educated guess.

Infierno and Esphesto vs Gallo and Toro Irison

1st Fall: Only highlights were shown not full action. Gallo did a moonsault off the ropes and pinned Esphesto. Toro submitted Infierno with an abdominal stretch.

2nd Fall:  Again highlights only: Both Infierno and Ephesto putting on a double hold on Toro and pinning him with it. They Stinger Splash Gallo, and submit him to a double arm stretch.

3rd Fall:  Gallo and Esphesto punch it out at first, then Espesto rushes Gallo in the corner and is met with feet. Gall then sunset flip's Espesto, but Infierno comes in but Toro sunset flip's him, but both rudos kick out at 2. Toro and Gallo are run into each other, but wait it was Toro and Espesto who were run into each other, Gallo and Infierno were about to do a double leg stretch when they realize they are on opposite teams, and stop. Gallo and Toro kick out of pins at 2. Gallo and Toro are both sunset flipped but both kick out at 2. Gallo does a plancha from the top post to Infierno outside. Toro is thrown into the corner by Ephesto, but Toro tries to do a head stand in the corner but Esphesto punches him in the crotch. Esphesto pins Toro to win for the rudos. Okay I guess what there was of it.

Eclispe, Olimpico, Atlantis    vs    Blue Panther, Heavy Metal, Shocker

1st Fall:  Panther and Olimpico start it off grappling around slowly. Panther got a full nelson on Olimpico but he forced his way out. Olimpico got on Panthers back and forced his arms back, Panther got out. Olimpico monkey flipped him. Panther picked up Olimpico, but Olimpico once up there flexed and rolled through. Heavy was getting booed, and started baiting the crowd. Eclispe flexed his muscles and Heavy fell on the floor laughing. Heavy did a few moves with Eclispe, then tested the crowd reaction, I guess it wasn't good, he didn't like it. Shocker and Atlantis are in and test crowd reactions. Shocker deals out a bunch of quebradoras to Los Guerreros, 4 alone to Olimpico, Panther comes in and locks Olimpico into a Boston Crab and submits him. Heavy comes in and does a Casita(Majistral) to Eclispe and pins him.

2nd Fall:  Panther did a rolling leg lock to Atlantis, but Eclispe came in and kicked him off. Eclispe misses a spear and hits the post. Olimpico sunset flips Panther but Heavy came in and kicked him off. Heavy and Olimpico exchange some very fast moves, then Atlantis came in and forearms him. Heavy traded moves with Atlantis for a short while then the rudo beat down began. In a clinch Eclispe low blowed Shocker, then did it a second time, but ref said it wasn't one. Eclispe and Atlantis throw Panther into Shocker, Atlantis ties Panther's mask laces to the top rope. In the meanwhile Eclispe pinned Shocker. Atlantis was punching away at Panther's head. The ref untied Panther. Rudos win this fall.

3rd Fall:  This fall begins with the tecnicos already having made a comeback. Panther does a cross body on Atlantis for a 2 count. Panther does a slow huricanrana on Atlantis for another 2 count. Atlantis got his Atlantida on Panther and Panther submitted. Panther wasn't the captain so the match continued. Heavy came in and did his Casita to Eclispe and pinned him, that's one for each side. Shocker did a head scissors roll up pin to Atlantis and got the win. This was a short fall, the first two were far longer. But this was a pretty good match once it got going.

Light Heavyweight Championship
Ultimo Guerrero              vs             Rey Bucanero(C)

1st Fall:  This fall begins in progress with Ultimo working an armlock on Rey. Ultimo spends a couple of minutes or longer just working the arm. Ultimo armdrags Rey a couple of times, then Rey schoolboys Ultimo and gets the 3 count. Short fall.

2nd Fall:  This was also picked up in progress, with Rey doing a flying head scissors to Ultimo. Rey was wrapping Ultimo's legs into a figure four when Ultimo small packaged him and pinned him. Less than a minute long.

3rd Fall:  Likewise picked up in progress, with Rey and Ultimo just laying there. Rey does a huricanrana and gets a 2 count on Ultimo. I don't how long this had gone without the editing but both these were exhausted by this point. Ultimo does a sunset flip on Rey and got a 2 count. Ultimo does a over the top rope bump to the floor, and Rey does a pescado to him over the top. Ultimo then locks on a Cavernaria(chinlock tapatia), for 30 seconds or so but Rey doesn't give and forces his way out. Ultimo hooked on a Gory Special, but Rey got loose, rolled forward for a near pin, but Ultimo rolled back for another pin. Ultimpo tried an inverted 'rana but Rey reversed it for another near pin. Ultimo clotheslines him twice, but Rey bounces back up and clotheslines him for another near fall. Ultimo power bombs Rey and tries a pin using the ropes but Rey kicked out. As Rey is pointing this out to the ref. Ultimo schoolboys Rey for another near fall. Ultimo goes up top and tries a senton, but Rey moved and he missed for another near fall. In the corner, Rey shoulder tackles Ultimo 3 times, then puts him up top and tries a huricanrana from the top, but Ultimo hung onto him, and power bombed him from the top, I thought this was it, but Rey kicked out at 2. Rey does his power bomb pin that I don't know what it's called but Ultimo kicked out at 2. Rey goes up, but Ultimo went up too and gave him a reverse superplex for another near fall. Rey then backslides Ultimo, the ref counted 3 but Ultimo got his shoulder up, the audience thought it was over, it wasn't. Rey then does a version of Carlito's back cracker but from the side and holding Ultimo's arm, he finally got the 3 count and the win. Rey keeps his title. This 3rd fall was very good, exciting.

This wraps up this show. Pretty good I liked it. One more show on my tape, another Guadalajara show, then I gotta wait for another tape. Will get to that show later in the week, hopefully.

IWRG for 1/21/07

IWRG: 1/21/07

Not sure of the date, customs opened the package and the little slip of paper with the dates on it was lost. Damn you Osama Bin Ladin! IWRG is an acquired taste, some of these matches seem to be taking place in slow motion. but they're not, just a slower pace than most of us are use to.

Black Stone & Fantasma De La Opera vs Halcon Salvaje & Bacteria

1st Fall: Fastasma and Bacteria start it off very slowly, grappling around in slow motion which is pretty much the style with this group.

Niebla gets Veneno into his human knot hold and he gives up too. Tecnicos win. Another one of those slow motion matches. Very slow paced. The first fall was the longest.

And that wrapped up the show, the Freelance vs Avisman match was the only one I liked. Next week I'll review AULL show.
