(1991) La Fiera vs. Jerry Estrada (Monterrey)

La Fiera vs. Jerry “Puma” Estrada
??/??/1991
Chain Match
Monterrey

Year: 1991
Type: n/a
Other:Recommended; Bloody; Chain

Synopsis:

With the exception of a confusing and unsatisfying finish, this match has everything one could possibly want out of a chain match. After some early match tentativeness, Fiera and Estrada start swinging for the fences and the results is a wild, unpredictable brawl. There are chain shots of course, but also wild chair tosses, legit head butts (including one to the referee!), and plenty of blood. The match is more than a novelty; you could drop this same match into almost any territory in the U.S. in the 1980’s and it would be among the stronger violent gimmick matches in those promotion’s histories. Estrada has never looked so stuff and the amazing consistent La Fiera is once again on his game. To top it all off, the match is more than just brawling and includes a really neat tope while both guys are still chained together. As mentioned, the abrupt and frankly stupid ending is the one major blemish on an otherwise immensely entertaining brawl.

Other: Angle

Synopsis:

A throw away, non-stipulation singles match in the middle of the Jerry Estrada/Pirata Morgan/El Satanico 3-way feud. The wrestling in this one is forgettable and worse yet the match does nothing to further the burgeoning feud. The match includes a lengthy post-match beating of Jerrito Estrada leading to hair match challenges between Jerrito and Piratita but does nothing to continue the issue between the participants except leaving it unresolved.

Year: 1993
Type: Title Match Style
Other: n/a

Synopsis:

Ohtani’s Jacket has alluded to the notion that Lizmark might be the greatest tecnico of all time but that it is impossible to say for sure when we only have a small portion of his career available. Lizmark’s 1993 alone makes a strong a case for that lofty claim. Opinions on Jerry Estrada run the gambit but he is clearly a limited worker at least offensively (his nutty bumps notwithstanding). Lizmark was ten years Estrada’s senior at the time of this match but you would not have guessed that how this was worked. It is an easy comparison but Lizmark exudes an Atlantis-like humble confidence. He also clearly gets more out of Jerry Estrada than maybe any other wrestler was able to in a singles match. Estrada’s performance is not superlative, but is clearly better than his average output. I think you have to credit that to Lizmark. The slow burn first fall is easily the weakest part of this match, but even then I liked the way they added a little spice with the unique stalemate spots. This is a match that builds really well, with each fall building off the other. It is a really smartly laid out match. Even the finish – which by modern eyes felt abrupt – got an excellent reaction from the live crowd. Even non-Estrada fans will enjoy this.

Other:Triangular

Synopsis:

Following their break up the previous week on AAA television, Pirata Morgan and El Satanico meet in a triangle match that also involves the catalyst for their split, Jerry “Puma” Estrada. The rules of lucha triangle matches differ from the rules of a typical three-way match from outside of Mexico. There are three stages. In the first, all three wrestlers are in the ring at the same time. One fall decides this stage. The wrestler that loses the fall “advances” to the third stage. In the second stage, the two remaining wrestlers go one-on-one for one fall. The winner of that stage is out of the match and would be considered the overall winner. The loser of the second stage faces the loser of the first stage in a best two out of three falls match. In other words, the entire thing consists of five falls: a one fall three way, a one fall singles match, and a two out of three falls singles match. This particular match is both entertaining and effective in setting up the next stage of the Morgan/Satanico feud.
