You'll hit your head and say: 'Boy, how stupid could I have been. A moron could've figured this out. I must be a real dimwit. A pathetic nimnal. A wretched idiotic excuse for a human being for not having figured these simple puzzles out in the first place...As usual, you've been a real pantload!

I was saying to my friend it's awesome that this show has one hour every week and still is willing to spend 30 minutes of it on a lower mid-card feud as their main event.

I was very happy that I waited thirty minutes for Mariposa to appear, she finally did, and they basically disposed of her in four seconds, even if she did almost bounce her head off a turnbuckle to do it. That double-stomp at the end was sick, too, Killshot just rode him allllllllllllllllllllllllll the way down. Oh, Marty, you are too good for this world. Felt like the match was your typical "move from spot to spot, set up spot, etc" but they mixed it up just enough to keep it interesting.

It is kind of weird that for a wrestling fed, I had to stop to think for a few minutes earlier today about who the champ was. Could come up with Sexy Star for Gift of the Gods, but was like...who...will she challenge? oh, yeah, matanza, right

e: Why would Dario not know who Joey Ryan was? Surely he is aware of everything that goes on in His Temple, the weird dude with the porn stache and lollipop would stick out, I'd think.

Dario knew who Joey was. He just didn't know he was a cop.

I loved the look on Dario's face when Joey told him Castro's a cop too.

They might be intending to push Killshot now that this feud is blown off. Maybe put him and the Mack in a trios team again?

The exchange when they meet:
"What the hell do you want?"
"Relax, I'm a friend."
"You don't look friendly."

Seems to indicate he doesn't? Is it possible Joey only showed up on episodes where Catrina was in charge?

I'm not gonna get to watch this live tonight, which sucks, but it looks like we have Matanza versus random opponent from DARIO'S DIAL OF DOOM, a Trios Title rematch, and Cage trying to drag an interesting match out of Texano. And most importantly, probably more of that sweet sweet lore.

The structure of the gimmick means they can't really build to the title match, but hopefully this is leading to a good payoff.

I like that they're actually doing some wrestling moves in it now and not just karate. Also, that Dragon Azteca's gut reaction on seeing Chavo is to scream "LIAR" and run at him.

and BAGEL BITES. Best product placement.

also in the next vignette, Taya was pretty great with the "uh, he's a DAREWOLF" correction and Dario's blank look afterward

Xerzes posted:

I feel like Texano must make a lot more sense in Mexico. He seems pretty over with the latin (well, especially Latina) crowd, but everyone I know seeing him in LU for the first time is like "well, he's not terrible." This match was pretty good, and I liked that they had a little fist bump afterward, both still faces. We'll see if it goes down the Drago/Aerostar route of at least teasing a turn for someone.

Dias posted:

Yes. Obviously, this trios match was taped way later in the season when Jack had his broken jaw, so he had to work really light. But his antics and everyone else being off the hook made up for it.

a fun one top to bottom and I really enjoyed all three matches. Even Texano seemed a little more dynamic than usual. Although that may be a byproduct of facing Cage, who is quickly becoming my favorite musclebound dude because he works so super-agile for his size.

I also do love that even having gone to most of the tapings, some things are still complete mysteries to me. I have no idea what the pictures are all about.

That dude Ricky who took Dario's totally sweet pictures was former skeleton Trece, right?

And did they just quietly drop Siniestro this season or what?

He was one of the DoD, I don't remember which one. Siniestro was in the Season 3 trailer, I think, so he'll pop back up at some point.

He was one of the Disciples of Doom, so he's been around, just not as himself. It is pretty funny to have him bust into Dario's office after two years going "hey when's my next match?"

Yeah, Ricky was REALLY excited about those pictures. Regarding the Disciples of Death, if you didn't know:

Barrio Negro = Argenis
Trece = Ricky Mandel
El Siniestro de la Muerte = El Mariachi Loco (who hasn't appeared outside of Siniestro yet but apparently will this season)
