[1991-WWA] Los Brazos vs Pirata Morgan & Emilio Charles Jr & MS-1

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Loved this match. Pirata, Emilio and MS-1 are game to match the Brazos comedy spot for comedy spot, and the end result is a wildly entertaining match. This feels like a steady stream of sequences you'd see in the first ten minutes of a really good Midnight Express match, with some heel miscommunication spots I'd love to see adapted for U.S. wrestling. The spot where Pirata keeps punching Brazo de Oro in the stomach, only for him to repeatedly bump into Emilio, who is stuck in the corner behind him, was tremendous. Great fun!

I though Brazos got a bit too serious over the course of the year so it was nice to see the comedy back. Heel team were really good doing all the heel miscommunication spots. As Loss mentioned, the repeated corner punch spot was really funny.

Okay, I liked this too but I have to break on one aspect: the punching in the corner with Oro's butt bumping against Charles was cute in concept, but the execution spoiled it for me. That aside, it was a blast watching the Brazos do their usual act but as total babyfaces--you feel like they've earned the cheers and the chants that they've worked and suffered so hard to achieve over the course of these Yearbooks. Porky absolutely crushes all three opponents with a top-rope splash to decisively win the second fall, and the rudos' communication falls apart in the third. The rudos ducking an attempted Brazo tope, only for the Brazo to slap Charles in the head causing him to turn on his partners was a much better heel stooge spot.

Pretty heavy schtick match but a fun one at that. There were a couple of instances in the butt spot where the execution was way off but I sort of knew what the match was all about at that point so I went along with it. Nothing consequential but a good breather between a very serious wrestling disc so far.

[garretta]

A couple of nice spots (the heels falling apart after Charles gets repeatedly squashed in the corner, a double slam on Porky off the top by MS-1 and Morgan, Porky's splash to end the second fall), but nothing all that memorable. I have to be in the right mood to watch a match like this, and I wasn't, so this was bound to be kind of a chore for me. I didn't understand most of the comedy either, and that's probably a language/cultural thing. Put it all together and this was a match I watched to get to the next match, nothing more.

 

I am curious about one thing, though: What if the Brazos meant the DA (any combination) in a six-man on TBS?

[Tim Cooke]

Arn and Porky could work comedy spots until they are blue in the face (including the Porky fake heart attack spot)

[dawho5]

Damn you for putting the idea of Arn vs. Porky in my head! Now I'll wish there was a match pretty much until I stop watching wrestling. Really fun comedy match with the appropriate amount of bruising offense from MS1 and the rudos. I noticed a couple of off moments in the corner spot, but I forgave them as it seemed like there wasn't enough serious stuff going on to make this really need a lot of analysis. I did like the triple teaming of Super Porky in the first caida a lot.
