En Busca de la Idolo - Week 6

5/6

Super Halcon Jr. v. Hechicero- Must See

Another great Hechicero rudo performance, Halcon still breaks out his tired stuff, but Hechicero broke out enough different twists to make in interesting. I really liked all of his early matwork, and a pair of fun Harley Raceish bumps. He gets dropkicked in the back on the apron and faceplants, and does a backwards sell of a tope sliding over the ring barrier into the crowd. Finish was dope too, as Hechicero does a spinning cobra clutch into a slam and camel clutch. Halcon is still dirt dull, but I am enjoying the Hechicero against scrubs matches as a much as a Hechicero against good dudes.

Star Jr. v. Cavernario - Spare Moment

This was on the cusp of must see, although there was a bit of awkwardness on a couple of moves and I would have liked to see Cavernario do a bit more. This was a Star Jr. showcase, as Cavernario was mostly bumping for him. Cavernario is a good rudo base, and he takes a crazy bump off of a headscissors to the floor. I also love his crazy person headbutts. Star Jr. has some fancy stuff, and with a little polishing I can see him being a guy really worth watching in a couple of years.

5/9

Star Jr. v. Soberano Jr.- Spare Moment

Really fun in a Beyond Wrestling kind of way. Just a couple of kids throwing out every crazy spot they know in 7 minutes. In between spot execution left a little to be desired, but it is hard to hate watching crazy shit. Star Jr. breaks out his headscissors into the floor and his top rope springboard tornillo, and the Soberano Jr. actually one ups him with this crazy move where he drapes Star Jr. over the ring barrier and full speed topes into his back (which has to lead to neck surgery if he makes that a regular spot). Would like to see this guys mix these spots into a trios with luchadores who kind provide some structure, but there are way worse ways to spend a bit of time.

Cachorro v. Hechicero - Spare Moment

They tried something a little different in this match, as it was much more about counters and submissions then dives and throws (although we did get a great Cachorro tope). They didn't execute everything they tried perfectly, and sometimes this looked a little dosey doey, although I appreciated them trying to mix it up. I loved the finish as Cachorro countered a tilt a whirl into a nasty armbar that looked like it dislocated Hechicero's arm. Looking forward to the rematch.
