I doubt this will get a second because I'm pretty sure the only way to watch will be an obstructed fan cam in portrait mode https://www.facebook.com/TotalmenteLucha/videos/672876706411609/

but HM: LA Park and Dr Wagner Jr vs Rush and Bestia Del Ring, KLANDESTINO 8/4

All the cool Park/Rush segments you want plus Wagner, Park throwing beer bottles, an extended comedy segment with the ref and of course tons of heat.

Here is a better quality fan cam

Second. Always nice to get a reminder that The New Day are a great tag team (as are The Bar).

MOTYC: LAX vs CCK (Chris Brookes & Jonathan Gresham), Progress NYC 8/6
Hottest crowd I've ever seen at La Boom. Hardest I've ever bit on near-falls when the winner was so obvious and immutable from the outset. Some of the most wonderful tag team spots I've ever seen. Would be the best match I've seen live this year if not for Gargano/Almas.

HM: British Strong Style vs Jimmy Havoc, Brody King, & Eddie Kingston, Progress NYC 8/6
Might not seem like a main event match on paper, but was an absolute blast of a "house show match" that I think will come across well on tape. Lots of silly spots and intra-team comedy while still being coherent and keeping everyone invested. Keep your eye on Trent Seven, who has the funniest little storyline with Jimmy Havoc during this whole thing

Also good on the show, for those who do got the VOD: Riddle vs Mandrews was really fun and a little special for us EVOLVE fans because there's a very high chance this is the last time Riddle will ever be wrestling at La Boom. Natalia Marakova vs Ashley Vox had one of the craziest loving bumps I've ever seen outside of a hardcore match, and that was like not even halfway through the match. Just a total blast from two people I'd never heard of. TK Cooper vs Eddie Dennis and Grizzled Young Veterans vs Sexy Starr were both whatever, but helped by very strong heel heat. Great show overall

I can't go along with that. Yano Omega should have been MOTYC until the finish which was dogshit, but not so bad I'd call it among the worst matches of the year.

I cannot wait for this match, LAX are one of the tightest tag teams I've ever seen live.

Dragon Gate Korakuen Hall, 8/7

HM: Open the Twin Gate Championship: YAMATO and BxB Hulk vs. Naruki Doi and Big R Shimizu

If you’ve been following Dragon Gate this year, than the gently caress finish was expected and long awaited, otherwise it’s a good match until that point. Surprisingly sloppy from a Dragon Gate Match but whatever. Also suffered by being the immediate follow up to the Kobe World twin Gate match (the best match of the year), and repeating some spots.

It's loving wild that a 4* match is considered a letdown. the G-1 Climax this year is going to beat out the 94 Super-J Cup as best tournament of all time, and Kenny Omega and Okada are likely to make Manami Toyota and Misawa and Steamboat vs Flair look like total chumps in the GOAT categories in the last 12 months alone.

Nthing this, and I'll go on the record saying that the last 5 or so minutes of the match elevated this from one of the weaker entries in the saga (felt almost like a "greatest hits" version of the match at times) to the best match of theirs since WK9 or so.
