WEEKLY PROMOTIONS
This CMLL weekly Lucha Libre coverage reviews four great matches including Jushin Liger’s retirement event. The first one for CMLL’s Women Championship with Marcela and Amapola, Classic match and Classic rivalry by years. The match started with their abilities or (llaveo), a great way to know and weaken your opponent. Amapola had the first fall then Marcela tried to gain the fall with a quebradora, but Amapola applied a submission. The second fall, Amapola was dominated but Marcela had the victory with a double knee from the middle rope. This was interesting, two great luchadors with tried to conquest the gold. The third match involved the strategy to get the victory the fastest way possible by both sides. Since the fall began, Marcela tried to fight off Amapola had tried to defeat her rival.
The crowd was exciting, and the match was full of drama. Then by both to get the third palm, Amapola applied to Marcela a dive in the floor and then she applied a great suplex but the three palms never come. Marcela applied dive to Amapola from the apron to the floor. The dives are a good strategy to decrease the opponent. Totally dramatic, I could have called the match, one more time Amapola searched the belt with a spear but it didn’t be enough to Marcela. Marcela got up and with Michinoku Driver defeated Amapola. A great match, the first and the second fall were slow but the last fall had everything and Marcela still has her title.
Next match was four vs four. Sanson, Cuatrero, Forastero, and Volador Jr vs Soberano Jr, Templario, Euforia, and Gran Guerrero. Great domino by Laguneros and Soberano in the first fall, they dominated all their opponents, the fall was gained via submission by double camel clutch and gory special. The second match still was dominated by Laguneros and Soberano but the reaction comes when Forastero applied a tope to Gran Guerrero and Volador Jr applied a hurricanrana to Euforia from the top rope to the floor. Sanson and Cuatrero dominated to Templario with a quebradora and flying elbow and Soberano was defeated by Sanson with suplex in the knee.
The third and last fall began with NGD and Volador hitting and kicking their opponents. Then this match was amazing, a great rhythm and speed. Volador gave learned about head scissors and hurricanrana. Tremendous dives by Sanson, Cuatrero, Soberano, and Templario, they were amazing. Incredible spots, all showed their powerful moves to get the victory. Volador made a moonsault to Soberano on the floor. On the ring was NGD against Laguneros, NGD had the victory when putting the Laguneros in a corner and applied Catapulta and that was enough to Laguneros team. Great match and the last match was entertainment, the crowd supported to NGD and Volador Jr.
The Family war match, Muñoz vs Parks. This beginning since the ramp, in all the first fall the crowd was supporting to Parks and booed to Muñoz Family. I liked Hijo de L.A. Park vs Mistico, great feud. Park Jr make a tope to Bestia and then Hijo de L.A. Park applied moonsault to Mistico, and Bestia, but the best of the fall was L.A. Park applied a spear to Rush from the apron to the floor with the other ones, it was amazing and the crowd was exciting… and it’s only the first fall. The first fall was for the Parks. They come back to the ring before the twenty seconds.

The action is among the crowd and the commentators’ zone, L.A. Park punished with chairs to Rush. Hijo de L.A. Park applied a plancha to Mistico from the top of the entrance. Arena Mexico was crazy, the crowd yelled to support L.A. Park. We need to accept it, L.A. Park moves and connect to the crowd, Incredible match. The match comes back to the ring, L.A. Park and Rush ask for a mask vs hair match, they hit… those hits were incredible, these guys don’t want in the same ring. Mistico and Hijo de L.A. Park tear their masks and they had a great spot.

The match comes to the end when Muñoz gave a low blow and pushed the referee. Los Parks got the victory.
The main event, the Liger match, a four-way dance match between Caristico, Negro Casas, Ultimo Guerrero, and Jushin Thunder Liger facing each other in the style of Lucha Libre. In this case for the Liger retirement match, Liger has to decide who will be the first opponent and he selected to Negro Casas, a great beginning to the match, they make us remember their time in NJPW and Toreo de Cuatro Caminos. Guerrero and Negro attacked to Liger but Caristico helped him. Caristico applied tope and Liger applied a plancha to their opponents. Great exchanged of hits between Guerrero and Negro. Caristico against Liger, the Mexican controlled to Liger with his moves.
