[2013-01-01-CMLL] Bobby Zavala & Disturbio vs Leono & Tiger Blanco (Hair vs Hair)

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Very quick work in the first fall. I like the camera work on the big dive to the outside. Made it seem like there was serious height on the move. I noticed they are using the countout more during the falls after guys being hit with dives outside. Double moonsaults to the outside. Man, just laughing at these really overly dramatic move sequences. Falling backwards over the top rope to the outside but still pulling off a headscissors on the guy on the floor. I really like how the third fall played out where it came down to two guys and they get extended time against each other. Not one guy gets pinned and his teammate is pinned seconds later. First two falls were not much but the third fall really brought this match up in the end.

I thought this was a really great, all action, high stakes tag match that just kept building and building to something better as it went along. Everyone seemed pretty desperate to hold on to their hair so they were pulling out all the stops, so you get the deep arsenal of highspots and big bumps because these guys are doing everything they can to stay in the fight. Felt pretty life or death from start to finish, and I have to give them credit for maintaining that emotion for a half hour.

I had almost the exact opposite view of Kevin in that I thought the first two falls were pretty good, but the third fall came across as real over kill to me. I understand its a high stakes match, but "your turn, my turn" without any sense of organic momentum swings is almost never my cup of tea. Zavala was really good in this, but there area ton of CMLL matches I preferred from last year.
