Los Oficiales vs. Freelance, Pegasso Xtreme, Rey Cometa, Distrito Federal Trios Titles, 10/17/08

 

Some of the best trios wrestling to come out of Mexico this year.

 

I actually preferred the title match, largely because Los Oficiales are better at mano a mano exchanges than working as a trios. What their "Los Destructores" act lacks are the comeuppance spots, where the double and triple teaming breaks down and they end up bumping into one another. Individually they're better bumpers and I particularly love their baseball slides into the barricade.

 

Mano a mano also clears the ring for Freelance vs. El Capitan, a real old school type trios match-up with a lot of great chest slapping.

 

Freelance is unstoppable, clearing the top rope like you wouldn't believe, but it's his fight that sets him apart. Size isn't an issue because he works so big. And he doesn't overdo it punching above his weight. He just seems naturally tough. And he died a dramatic death in the title match. What a hero.

 

Pequeno Ninja, Shockercito, Tzuki vs. Fire, Mr. Águila, Pequeño Halloween, 11/11/08

 

This was another match where the workers got longer than usual. Structurally this was pretty close to the '96-97 minis, though the work wasn't as good. The technicos' comeback wasn't as death defying as it could've been, still I was surprised that this batch of minis produced the goods. The rudos were impressive since it's not their strongest line-up. There was a long wait for the dives, a trend I'd like to see more of.
