Lucha Libre Liveliness: CMLL's Pay Per View Spectacle

March 18th, 2016, Arena Mexico, Mexico City - The Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) faithful gathered at the hallowed halls of Arena Mexico for a night of high-flying, hard-hitting luchador action. And boy, did they get it.

The evening's festivities kicked off with a pair of tag teams doing battle in a Best Two Out Of Three Falls contest. La Sangre Dinamita (El Cuatrero and Sanson) emerged victorious over El Soberano Jr. and Oro Jr., showcasing their chemistry and technical prowess in the process. The match clocked in at 21:05, with the winners claiming victory after a series of quick pin attempts.

Next up, Los Hijos del Infierno (Ephesto, Luciferno, and Mephisto) took on Angel de Oro, Rey Cometa, and Titan in a Six-Man Tag Team bout. The "Sons of Hell" proved to be too much for their foes, securing the win after just 10:27 minutes of action.

The night's main event thus far was undoubtedly the eight-man tag team contest featuring Dragon Lee, Mascara Dorada, Mistico, and Valiente against Fujin, Kamaitachi, Okumura, and Raijin. This clash of styles resulted in a thrilling match that clocked in at 16:38. The winners' ability to adapt to their opponents' unorthodox tactics ultimately proved the deciding factor.

In between these matches, CMLL's top stars clashed in what can only be described as a battle for the ages. Rush and Maximo Sexy went toe-to-toe in a Hair vs. Hair Best Two Out Of Three Falls affair. The "Samoan Submission Sorcerer" emerged victorious after 15:00 minutes of intense action, leaving his opponent with a shorn pate.

The final two matches saw CMLL's stalwarts take center stage. Atlantis, Brazo de Plata, and Marco Corleone formed an unlikely trio to take on the formidable combination of Cibernetico, Mr. Niebla, and Ultimo Guerrero. The good guys' teamwork and experience ultimately paid off in a match that lasted just 8:06.

In the evening's main event, Volador Jr. faced off against Negro Casas in another Hair vs. Hair Best Two Out Of Three Falls showdown. The "Volador" proved his mettle, claiming victory after 17:14 minutes of back-and-forth action and leaving his opponent with a fresh new 'do.

As the dust settled on this memorable night in Mexico City, it was clear that CMLL's Pay Per View extravaganza had delivered on its promise of excitement and entertainment. Fans in attendance left Arena Mexico with full hearts and a renewed appreciation for the art of lucha libre.

Final Thoughts: A fantastic evening of luchador action, capped off by two thrilling Hair vs. Hair matches.
