GWE 2026 Legwork: MS-1 (#2)

MS-1, Satanico & El Dandy v Alfonso Dantes, Atlantis & Rayo de Jalisco Jr. (EMLL, 3/27/87)

I've watched a chunk of Infernales stuff over the last few months - whenever I've actually had time TO watch anything - and the Satanico/MS-1/Pirata Morgan trio really is about as good as it gets. This was during the period where Morgan had left to form Los Bucaneros and I'm not sure where Masakre was on this particular night, but a 24-year-old El Dandy was a fine stand-in. He might've actually been my favourite guy in the match - a PRECOCIOUS young rudo who did his best to hang with the OGs. Satanico was even announced as the #1 rudo in Mexico and I'm not sure there's ever been a point where he came across as anything BUT that. I can't tell you the last time I watched an Alfonso Dantes match. He was barely a couple years shy of retirement here but El Tanque still commanded some by god respect and I love how it took Satanico and MS-1 twisting and biting his arms and fingers at the same time to get him to his knees. Satanico applying a top wristlock and headbutting the hand is just one of those things that separates him from 99% of wrestlers in history. Dandy and Atlantis had some absolutely killer exchanges and you sort of forget how much of a bump freak skinny Roberto Gutierrez was. He got monkey flipped damn near fully across the ring three times and then took a fucking absurd corner bump to the floor, fittingly at the hands of Atlantis. He went up almost vertically as Atlantis propelled him over, then landed fully horizontal with a ridiculous splat. Dandy was also throwing some of those world class punches and there was one incredible moment where Rayo tried to go at him, MS-1 came in to double up, but Dandy cleaned Rayo's clock with a string of hooks and MS-1 threw a hand up like "well I guess the wee fella's got this one!" The tecnico comeback starts immediately into the segunda and I loved MS-1's sell of being rammed into the ring apron, catching the edge of that advertising board right at the top of his glute and hobbling away from an advancing Rayo. Atlantis and Dandy had some stellar moments around this point as well, including a rapid fast quebradora on the floor where Dandy almost got spun out his boots. Then he went flying into the ring board like a mad man just as Rayo punched MS-1 all the way up the aisle. The tercera wasn't long but it was super heated and the last 30 seconds were perfect, with Rayo crushing MS-1 with a placha and both Satanico and Dandy getting their comeuppance via the Tapatia and Atlantida respectively. A total blast.
