Low-Ki Started Popping Like It Was Legal

Low-Ki vs. Volador Jr. IWC Legacy 4/14/19 - FUN

This was the main event of the most indy wrestling of the four competing lucha feds running in Denver at any one time (There was a different show in town running at the same time with Zumbido in a granite warehouse).  This was a weird show, at one point or another this was supposed to be a supershow with IWC guys working HOG wrestlers, then they had listed CIMA and OWE wrestlers, Darby Allin, Priscilla Kelly, Ricky Martinez and Shazza McKenzie. We actually got Jimmy Havok working the local fake Raven in a garbage match, Bram working a three way with a tubby Puerto Rican and guy billed from Austria working an anti-sugar gimmick (he has I Kicked Sugar on his tights, and after taking a bump says "I need some Stevia"), there was a lucha tag with one local luchador teaming with indy luchador Septimo Dragon and another local luchador teaming with Australian indy wrestler Mick Moretti.

The main event was listed as Low-Ki vs. Laredo Kid, which is on paper a way better match, instead we get Ki vs. Volador who is surely a bigger star, but also a guy who is going to mail in a match like this. Ki comes out with Selena De La Renta and she is awesome heeling it up on the mic, insulting the crowd, telling all the Mexican men they are disappointing in bed and all the white guys that they are raising ugly children. Ki worked this as an over the top rudo, we got to see a great in-ring double stomp, and an awesome sell of a tope where he goes back first into the stage. Volador wasn't doing much, and he really leg slaps on his kicks. Got to love Ki refusing to put over Volador Jr. in a event space in Denver, they do the same finish as the Fenix MLW match with Selena pulling off Volador's mask and Ki rolling him up. They do a bunch of post match mic work, including Volador hilariously challenging Ki to Cabellera contra Cabellera, and Ki jumps him, only to get superkicked to the floor. Ki is a superstar, and any chance I have to see him live I'll take, but I would have much rather seen him with someone who would give a shit.
