Posted October 14, 200915 yr comment_5445116 It's been a while since I saw this, but I remember it having a great rudo performance from Cota. In Kevin Cook's words, "Cota's Dickensian sinsterness is something to behold; what a crabbed, warped rassler" My own shabby review of the match, which I can't really understand, mentions: "One of the greatest second fall rudo comebacks I've seen in a lucha title match. So many times lucha has a quick second fall to even up the stakes, but Cota was masterful at working his way back into this fight, and his tope was completely unexpected." From what I recall, the match features an interesting blend of NWA style matwork and more athletic lucha style holds.
December 9, 201014 yr comment_5460061 This was a truly tremendous match. Lots of very cool mat wrestling in the beginning of the match with Rocca getting the advantage, and then Cota slickly works his way to dominance, it was like watching a masterful football team withstand an early rally and pound the ball down the throats of their opponents. Awesome almost Fuchish torturing from Cota, a crazy tope which had an even better take and a cool finish, great match which will finish high on the list of the unbloody. EMLL 1/27/84

July 16, 201213 yr comment_5510320 NWA Welterweight Title: Americo Rocca © vs. Mocho Cota (1/27/84) This was a great match worked in the lucha title style with no blood and these guys do everything right here. The matwork was crisp with Rocca being dominant and then went it came to brawl Cota asserted his dominance there. The stretch run was also great with some great intensity before the finish which was well done. This is a definite nomination.
