Lucha on TLN 1/14

Recommended Posts

As always, another fun lucha show this week on TLN, but this one was even better than usual because it featured an absolutely incredible Torneo Cibernetico with Team Guapo vs Team Guerrero. Olimpico absolutely stole the show with a great performance, but everyone had a good showing and this was one of my favorite matches shown on TLN yet (Averno/Zumbido and the first Torneo Cibernetico from October may have been better, but I'll need to watch those again). In addition to the big ass main event (long, and uncut I think) there was also a fun Universo/Terrible/Dr. Wagner vs Shocker/Blue Panther/Mr. Niebla.

 

Americans, I have no idea if this had already aired or when it will air, but Canadians, this re-airs tomorrow at 4:30 EST. WATCH. YOU WILL LOVE IT.

The Saturday show had Canek, Rayo de Jalisco, and some other old guy vs Tarzan Boy, Terrible, someone else and some match that had Pierroth, Pierroth Jr., and Mini Pierroth vs people I don't remember. Needless to say I was not happy with that show.

 

The only thing that was remotely entertaining was the McDonalds commerical that had Shocker in it.

I keep missing the Galavision Saturday Lucha here in the states...I don't even know if it still comes on.

 

But the Lucha De Vuelta on Sunday has been fun to catch (The CMLL stuff, anyway). I can see the basic storyline here between Hijo Del Perro Aguayo and Hijo Del Santo, and lord is it awesome.

 

H.D. Perro won the Leyenda de Plata, with his father in the front row, and was presented the plaque by H.D. Santo...so what does he do? Get on the turnbuckle with his buddy Hector Garza and bust it over the post! It was beautiful, and they had this great brawl.

 

So this week, it's Perro/Garza/Someone else vs. Santo/Negro Casas/Atlantis, it's 3rd fall, 1-1, and Perro trips up Santo, who trips the ref and sends him stumbling. Perro just wheelbarrow's him up and kicks him RIGHT IN THE GROIN, rolls him over, and get the three for the Rudo win. Post-match, as Santo is in the corner with Atlantis and Negro, holding his injured jewels, Perro gets on the microphone and throws down the gauntlet; Mask vs. Hair!

 

I'm enjoying this, even if I'm not comprehending all the promos and commentary, I pick up enough to understand what's going on. :)
