A funny training vignette with Satanico running some drills. Man, when the Infernales comes into the ring, they just look like the biggest bad asses in the world. I have missed these kind of trios in the past couple of months in CMLL. There isn’t the perennial whipping boy like Tarzan Boy to play off of Satanico but this was just a hateful match from beginning to end. INfernales do nothing redeeming getting fouls when they can and ripping at masks until they finally succeed in the finale of getting Mr. Niebla’s mask off. Throughout the course of the match, they received receipts which felt entirely justified especially Satanico getting posted. Ultimo Guerrero also has to fight with his masked getting worked over. Overall, the Infernales are an amazing trio. The tecnicos here take a backseat but both Niebla and Olimpico were solid when called upon. Olimpico rocking chair submission in the second fall was sweet. Highly enjoyable match that didn’t overstay it’s welcome and hopefully leads to a feud between the two factions. ***1/2 (7.1)

Customary enjoyable Infernales beatdown to start the match. Great double teams, great attitude, and they finish off Mr. Niebla to end the first fall. Things get personal as Infernales go after the mask of Niebla and Niebla comes back trying to take the mask of Ultimo. Niebla was really put in a position to shine here and looked good. He got revenge spots on the Infernales after some miscommunication and Satanico gets some comeuppance outside the ring. This ends with Infernales removing the mask of Niebla. Olimpico looked pretty spry here, Lizmark was just kind of there. But a good match.

Well, the feud between the Infernales and Niebla is starting to heat up, especially the personal battle between Niebla and Ultimo Guerrero. This featured the usual slick three-man work of the Infernales who did a number on Niebla in the early going. A decent response from the tecnicos led to some more inspiring work from Niebla than usual. Maybe it's me, but I always get the feeling that CMLL are always looking for the next big thing from one of their masked tecnicos. Shocker and Niebla were poised as breakthrough stars at the end of the 90s and we've seen Shocker bloom into one of the finest rudos in the country but despite his unique style Niebla is still there or thereabouts. He just can't seem to break through to the next level. Even here he looks like a foil for the Infernales to move further up the ladder. But at least he's interesting for a change.
