[2000-06-17-AAA/CMLL] Ultimo Guerrero & Rey Bucanero & El Satanico vs Hector Garza & Latin Lover & Tarzan Boy

[soup23]

Take everything I said about the CMLL tag and amplify it. This was incredible with Satanico and company being really spirited and showing up with their best performance in a couple of months. They just brutalize the tecnicos and fly around when needed. Garza, Lover and our favorite whipping boy, Tarzan Boy are mainly there to take a beating and provide flash but they deliver in spades. This was overall on of the best pure spotfest style matches of the whole year and the crowd was eating it up. ***1/2 (7.1)

If you want a textbook example of how a rudo beatdown of tecnicos should be, this is the match to watch. The Infernales give poor Latin Lover a beating and he can't even make a comeback before Satanico makes him submit. Hector Garza is slowly turning into the Hector I know and love here but that's to come at a later date. Really good rudo beatdown.

This was a decent match. The Infernales clearly benefitted from being an actual trio instead of a cobbled together AAA/CMLL team. The pretty boy tecnico team weren't the greatest but the Infernales had enough tricks up their sleeves to make things interesting. Satanico looked out of shape but was able to provide some thrust to the bout by reacquainting himself with Hector Garza. My favourite part of the match was when Satanico outsmarted Latin Lover to take the second fall. Just as Lopez was about to taunt him, he was taken out by a missile strike. Ultimo Guerrero continued to look like a stud. It's easy to see why he was elevated up the ranks by the mid-00s.
