I always liked him. Something about a dude who did fun high flying stuff while also boxing was neat. But yeah, way too many headlocks.

I'm having so much fun watching this. It's funny, people always talk about how high risk lucha is - and it is - but there's WAY less bumping due to the 2 fall structure I think. Pretty much every big, flat bump is a fall. No wonder lucha guys last so far into old age. I don't get the deal with Tirantes or whoever as ref. He seems to count kind of slow and have a bit of a character? Like, their red shoes or hebner or whatever? Can someone fill me in? And I am shallow enough to admit I dig the ring card and entrance ladies.

Anyone know if there's an e-book out there of it?

Hello folks, Recently got into CMLL due to some promoting of it by fans both here and on Reddit. Really starting to dig it, and I want some reading material for the bus to learn about lucha. Just some E-Books to throw on my tablet. Any recommendations?

I don't know much about lucha, but man, that was amazing. Loved that full on tope to the head. Loved the dueling disqualification falls or whatever.

I thought the premiere was ROUGH. Show looks way worse, and the pacing is all kinds of off. Building to a three way grave consequences match in the third episode of the damn show seems like a mistake. They're just throwing too much out at once.

Awesome! Throw me something to review, PWO folks

I think Mistico's an obvious shout. He was the biggest thing in the world in his - admittedly brief - prime. But others had a comparably short prime and made the Hall. I'd have him in.

Nakamura's always been a better heel to me, just because for as interesting as he is a TV character he'd be such a weird, annoying asshole in the real world.

Can anyone participate in this? I'm a new poster, but I would love to share some reviews.

Pretty sure I was looking for Llave. Thanks!

There's a term for the ground based chain wrestling lucha libre style that I can't remember. I saw it once in a review of ZSJ vs Negro Navarro and not being able to remember it is driving me nuts. Help?

I know I'm a bit late on this. The biggest, damning thing about the match is over the past year they had two central pillars the match easily should have been built on: The vicious elbows to Orton and the F5 kickout. The F5 has been built fantastically all year, putting absolutely everyone down - Including Reigns in the buildup! - with one shot. The Orton elbows were a big, talked about moment that could have served as a fantastic story beat in this match. They killed themselves by going to the F5 too early. A half dead, bloody Roman eating that move and then kicking out of one F5 only to spend the rest of the match desperately avoiding getting hit with another could have been a lot of fun.

What's some good Atlantis stuff to get started with? I've heard the Villaino match is fantastic, obviously.
