La Sombra, Sagrado, Volador Jr. vs. El Hijo Del Fantasma, La Mascara, Valiente (Mexican National Trios Titles), 04/30/08
There's no way I'm going to criticise this match, since that would be completely dickish.
Instead I'm going to focus on the good points:
* Valiente is awesome. Not since the days of Halcon Negro has there been such a fun guy on the undercard. Rudo Halcon Negro had the shtick and bump spots, but the plumper, rounder Valiente has Super Astro's footwork and agility & can roll with a wristlock like a legendary fat man.
* El Hijo Del Fantasma, La Mascara and Valiente have a good look about them. The highlight for me was their decision to dive as one. Go boys!
* The kids aren't allowed to climb the ring anymore, but there were plenty of kids and babies. Love the publico.
* And the kids got what they wanted to see, big moves and a tit for tat finish. It was a match for the kids and thoroughly entertained them. Like the best kids' movies, a fair few adults enjoyed it too.
* Valiente's three step springboard is an adventure into another stratosphere where fat men fall gracefully from the sky.
* The ending, where all the men raised each other's hands, capped off the spirit the match was worked in.
