I just got into Lucha less than a week ago but so far I've watched all of LU, the other night's Triplemania, and I've been looking stuff up on YouTube. I'm still really new to all of it but I really like 1)the aesthetic of all of it 2)exoticos because oh my god Pimpinela Escarlata 3)really old dudes in masks doing big lovely chops and strutting around like they have two hip replacements

Anyway Pentagon Jr is the poo poo and EHDF/King Cuerno is my jam and I need a haircut so I can start wearing masks around the house

Yeah I subbed to him a couple days ago and I've sorted his vids by viewcount and have been going through them picking and choosing, watching a lot of mask/hair matches and trios stuff.

One of the Villanos literally had a stroke days before the match. Makes you* think about how all life is finite, tbh.

In that Mistico story, Dave casually refers to Rush as CMLL's biggest star. Is that accurate - he's bigger than Sombra or Atlantis?

Ever since I started watching, Sombra's seemed like the top dog to me, with Rush as his buddy and #2.

the other day big dave tweeted that Rush was the best heel in the world currently

Considering everything that's happened since, Big Dave saying Perro's death was worse for AAA than Cena's death would be for WWE was pretty g.d. clairvoyant

WWE would make so much money off John Cena's death. I wish we could see how without Cena actually dying.

You're not wrong on both counts

That's Drago's normal weird rolling pinning combo thing, but it never looks that special compared to all the other crazy poo poo people do

Then again, Drago is over 40, so he does pretty well with what he's got


The AAA ramp girls are usually pretty good, maybe these are the low card ones

I'm not saying every woman on this show isn't gorgeous it's just that weird pseudo-Nitro Girls thing that CMLL has going on is my jam

He's probably smart breaking ties with LU at this point unfortunately. Him and Angelico could probably do a solid run in NXT or either one of them would be a shoo in for the next CWC.

I hope they're saving their money because the Wellness Policy's pot tax will eat through an NXT salary pretty quickly
