[2000-06-09-CMLL] Villano III vs Pierroth

[ohtani's jacket]

Pretty cool mano a mano between these two. Perhaps not as much hatred as folks would like but Villano was hell-bent on winning the bout and Pierroth was channeling his inner Jake Roberts by toying with Villano. Both guys bled but there was nothing decisive about the bout. If it had been longer and a blowoff match there's every chance it could have been great. It reminded me of Villano's work with Rambo the following year. Pierroth was one of favourite performers from the first half of the year but he disappeared for some reason after the Capos took him out -- an injury perhaps? Or some other health problem/personal issue. It was fun to see him snake his way through another sleazy performance even if the scope of the match was limited.
