[1983-05-20-Houston Wrestling] Tito Santana & Mil Mascaras vs Masked Superstar & Super Destroyer

[shoe]

Man this was a really great match, and I agree with Bruce this might have been Mil's best performance in the states.We get a really great extended shine sequence with Tito being the rugged fighter, while Mil showed a lot of flash. It's obvious on commentary Boesch has designs to make Tito his new ethnic babyface in the Jose Lothario role. Both heels made the faces look great in the shine. I was shocked Mil played FIP. He was good at it and the crowd was super hot for it. Tito gets the hot tag. He's on fire, but gets cut off and we get total chaos at the finish.3 3/4*

A good, fun and solid tag match. Santana shined big time here, everything he did was so crisp and it got over huge with the crowd, especially his mat sequence with Destroyer or his flashy attacks. Surprisingly, Mascaras was quite generous in his selling and the match didn't drag at all when the heels were focusing on him, which lasted quite a lot. Really great hot tag for Santana, but an interference from Gran Markus costed him the match and protected him despite the loss. This was not a classic, but a good performance from Mascaras and another nod for Santana
