[Cleavy]

So much for the rumours CMLL won't allow AAA wrestlers on the same show...

Penta/Fenix are more freelancers than aligned with AAA

Wait, they ain't signed with AEW?

I meant more freelancers in the Mexico landscape…

 

[Cleavy]

stop adding matches, OMG!

Still doesn't change the fact that rumours were started that those two and others were not allowed on shows that CMLL workers were a part of.

Was more a statement of the wrestling media putting out a lot of BS information, especially when it comes to AEW.

 

[fuey]

stop adding matches, OMG!

I have genuinely lost track of all the matches... probably over-doing it!

All I know, I have the day off tomorrow, and I doubt I'll leave the screen much at all!

 

[Ry009]

That's actually a pretty fun tag match.

Thank god the time difference is kind to us though RE: event length haha.

It is if you’re watching after work/dinner and skipping Zero Hour

 

[Nicho50]

When you have that many on the roster you need a lot of filler…

Annnnndd Kyle Flecther V Serpentico opening match of Zero Hour (and a half)... obviously they didn't have enough matches to fill the time they had...

Was a squash though. Not really needed.

• Kris Statlander & Momo Watanabe vs. Willow Nightingale & Tam Nakano (Zero Hour)
• Mariah May vs Saraya (Owen Hart Foundation women’s quarterfinal match) (Zero Hour)
• House of Black (Malakai Black & Brody King) vs. Private Party (Isiah Kassidy & Marq Quen) vs. Tomohiro Ishii & Kyle O’Reilly vs. Gabe Kidd & Roderick Strong (Zero Hour)
• Lucha Bros (Penta & Fenix) & Mistico vs Titan, Yota Tsuji & Hiromu Takahashi )Zero Hour)

Six-Man was fantastic and should've been on the main card...

Other matches weren't bad, but nothing to write home about either. HoB got the win in the 4-way, Mariah May went through in OHF... starting to wonder if May will win the Womens off Storm @ All In.

Is there an official match order? Hoping there's 2-3 skippable (for me) fights in a row so I can run errands and come back to the rest

 

[Ry009]

That Elite intro was pretty funny haha.

MJF match was ok.

Wish I didn't miss the six man. Was excited when that was announced.

Good show and plenty of top wrestling. Exactly what a PPV should be.
