Top rated trios match on the DVDVR lucha set. Features some nice high flying and matwork interlaced with some great comedy schtick.

Second. C&P from when I was going through the set:
This was a ton of fun, like a house show version of your greatest southern US tags where everybody knows how to work with everybody else and there's a million and one things they can all do together to send a crowd home happy. Loved all of the exoticos' shtick in this. Reyna and Astro have an awesome exchange at the start where Astro does a bunch of super quick nip-ups. When Reyna tries one he messes it up and kind of flops like a seal, so he just throws his hand up like "fuck this" and tags straight out. Some of the sequences these guys are doing are exactly the sort of sequences fans of the MX and RnRs would dig the hell out of, so in that respect this is another match I could see non-lucha fans really liking. This also has a totally incredible Super Astro dive, and that's the kind of thing anybody can get behind. Halfway through I was hoping Hermoso would bust out his awesome armdrag bumps that he did on the New Japan set, then it gets to the third caida and he takes like five of them in a row. On a set full of piss and blood and guts, this is probably the most straight up fun that you'll get. And I mean that in the absolute best way possible.

La Ola Lila vs Los Cadetes del Espacio 02-26-1984 Rudy Reyna & Sergio el Hermoso & Bello Greco vs Solar #1 & Super Astros & Ultraman This is a trios match, UWA made those matches famous, this company was the most innovative in México at the time, this match isn’t my thing, it’s the opposite of what I consider a great mexican trios match, it has no redeemable qualities, when I reviewed Los Brazos career I highlighted their appeal, how their style of comedy made their matches memorable, there’s nothing in this match that makes it memorable, their offense is just good on a surface level but the more I think about it the more I realise how dumb it is. Michinoku Pro did things even dumber than this match but they were just figuring out what’s lucha, if you are mexican you can’t use that excuse, you can say that they’re trying to do new things and you would be right but they do it without any personality, I didn’t feel like I was watching a pro wrestling match, lucha is made of personalities and this match doesn’t have that, it’s absolutely soulless, I know this match has some fans but I just don’t see what makes this match special I’m happy thinking that some people see in this contest the wrestling they want, as I said in my review of the 3/16 Michinoku Pro trio almost everybody is right in wrestling, there’s no definitive answers in wrestling and that’s amazing, I can’t imagine a world where wrestling is objective, that’s a dystopian reality for me, I’m sure someone loved this match as much as I hated it and that’s the best part about wrestling, everybody can make their case for everything and most probably you’re right, that’s why I still watch wrestling, I watch wrestling because for me it’s the most special medium there is, professional wrestling is unique but this match just for me at all, I hope someone can change my mind.
