This wasn't great, but it might be the first time I've seen Scorpio the senior in a singles match so that's a pretty substantial milestone in my journey as a fan of the pro wrestling. Prolly. He looks like a bridge troll, is wearing one of the most unflattering singlets you'll ever see and has a head that is almost completely square. Cachorro is not as good as his brother and may even have been a little TOO straight-laced at points, perhaps even naive, as several times he would check to see what MS-1 was doing all the shouting for and Scorpio would just blindside him. I did like him ditching the rules and literally whipping Scorpio out the ring by the hair to start the second fall (and of course Scorpio had plenty to say about it). Mendoza working the leg in the tercera seemed like a strange choice as Scorpio was determined to frame it as him being hit in the balls. Cachorro was like "what the fuck, man?" as if this sort of behaviour was unexpected. One awesome thing Scorpio did bring to the table was his fish-hooking. There were a few close-up shots of him grabbing a chin lock and immediately upping the nastiness by trying to pull Cachorro's face apart, and I loved Cachorro just biting his fingers to make him think twice. I'm not sure what Ringo was complaining about at the end. Scorpio may have been a weasel during the match but he did win the thing fairly in the end. I wouldn't mind seeing Ringo v Scorpio, or even better Ringo v MS-1, so if that's what the scuffle at the end was leading to them I'm into it.
