Espectrito & Jerrito Estrada v Mascarita Sagrade & Octagoncito (AAA, 8/28/93)
This was an absolute hoot. Is Espectrito the best mini wrestler ever (I don't count Virus in that because he's been wrestling on main rosters for over twenty years now)? Sagrada has a shout as well, but I'm partial to Espectrito because he's an incredible base, an incredible bumper and an incredible rudo dickhead bully. The chemistry between them is really awesome though and they did a bunch of neat shit together in this, like Espectrito gorilla pressing Sagrada and threatening to fling him into the first row (some guy is like no no please don't throw that small man into my elderly grandmother's face and beverage), the cool armdrag variations and the amazing bump Espectrito takes off the ropes just as you think he's about to Fuerza Bump it to the floor. Half pint Octagon might be a better wrestler than full pint Octagon and he got the absolute dogshit beaten out of him, then later hit mini Estrada with a fucking CORKER of a tope. Jerrito looks about as sleazy as the actual Jerry Estrada and I want you to think about that for a second because that is some outrageous amounts of sleaze. He was also really fun in this but I don't think he was even a wee bit blootered or unfit for work so I question his dedication to the character. Third caida had some awesome rudo bullying and the part where Espectrito full force booted Octagoncito's teeth out the back of his head was absolutely spectacular. I'll watch the Espectrito/Sagrada singles match again at some point in the next dozen years and I bet it's still awesome.
