- 0:02Right between the eyes, you're paralyzed! Cause
- 1:02this is Thriller! Oh, sorry about that. This
- 1:06is Dr. Lariat aka El Hijo de Dr. Swagner Jr.
- 1:13aka Scrandido aka Crying Tiger Mask aka The Great
- 1:19Swag Skate aka Jacko Chandeliga aka Black Tiger
- 1:25for the Culture. aka Filipino Heat and my goodness
- 1:32ladies and gentlemen, Cabas y Caballeros. This
- 1:37is from TripleMania18, LA Park versus La Parca
- 1:46for the rights to the La Parca name. It was one
- 1:52of those matches that was built up in 2010. Yes,
- 1:56ladies and gentlemen, I was watching AAA in 2010.
- 1:58In fact, I've been watching AAA since 1994. And
- 2:02I know nowadays the whole discussion about AAA
- 2:05is they've been colonized, they're now owned
- 2:07by WWE. But this is from the before time, this
- 2:11is from 2010. This is LA Park making his return
- 2:17to AAA to basically stake his claim. Yeah, just
- 2:28take his claim and just be You know marking his
- 2:35territory saying you know, I'm the real LaParca
- 2:37You're not you're just a you're just you know,
- 2:40you're just a copycat. Nobody cares about you
- 2:43I'm the real deal and you know, they had brawl
- 2:46sending us up. They had promo sending us up.
- 2:48He already had a mask you know LaParca and We're
- 2:54talking about AAA LaParca a lot of people. I
- 2:59love this LaParca I love La Parca too. He had
- 3:03this energy to him. He had a charisma to him.
- 3:05He took the gimmick that the original LA Park
- 3:10had done for years and made it his own in some
- 3:16ways. His dance was a little different. He had
- 3:19a little bit more groove into his dancing. He
- 3:22didn't really use the chair that much. If we
- 3:27go on the lower side. Just to explain it. On
- 3:31the lore, Laparca was more of a spirit that sort
- 3:34of like takes over the body of the wrestler and
- 3:40the character of Laparca that we see now and
- 3:43even in 2026 with the Laparca that you guys see
- 3:45in WWE. It's not like it's a new guy. It's that
- 3:50the spirit has now haunted another person and
- 3:54now they're the new Laparca. Sort of like we
- 3:56see with the new Hayabusa character. Joining
- 4:00me on this is also Matt Dawson. Hey Matt. When
- 4:05we talk about the ownership of characters in
- 4:10AAA, what they would do is they would like...
- 4:13If you weren't this character outside of AAA,
- 4:17AAA would own the rights to the name. We've seen
- 4:20that they've done that with Pentagon Jr. We see
- 4:24them do that with Phoenix. We see them do it
- 4:27with... with even nowadays with Black Torus where
- 4:32you know the original Black Torus is now The
- 4:34Beast Mortals which I think is a pretty cool
- 4:37name. Well there's a new Black Torus in Triple
- 4:40H, he's alright, he's a pretty good bass player.
- 4:44He was okay on the episode I saw. But the best
- 4:50bass in pro wrestling is The Beast Mortals like
- 4:53honestly he saved so many lives already. guys
- 4:57like Hologram, guys like Commander, guys like
- 5:02Leo Rush and even Will Ospreay. They should thank
- 5:07him for making sure that they didn't fall on
- 5:09their heads attempting all the fancy stuff they
- 5:11did. What AAA does is they own the name, they
- 5:18own the gimmick, they own the mask. Is it gonna
- 5:22be interesting seeing how they move forward on
- 5:25those things especially now those IPs have become
- 5:27WWE IPs and we know how WWE We know about Bully
- 5:33Ray. We know about brother D -Von. We know about
- 5:38Guys like mr. Anderson having to change their
- 5:42names Like I don't even like the guy Kurt Stallion
- 5:48had to change his name because he gave it basically
- 5:50to WWE yeah because like WWE's been like so greedy
- 5:58with that so guys can't use the name that they
- 6:01made in WWE outside of WWE so like I mean help
- 6:09help Cody couldn't use his last name when he
- 6:14was in RLH or on the indies for how many years
- 6:16even in AEW the beginning of it because somehow
- 6:20WWE had the rights to his last actual name in
- 6:26the wrestling context. It's crazy, man. And it
- 6:34arose by any other name would be smelling just
- 6:37as sweet, right? Yep. Yes, I use that quote,
- 6:42ladies and gentlemen. In this case, we have the
- 6:48character of La Parca played by two men, two
- 6:50different wrestlers of different sizes. And yeah,
- 6:54it's a match that I love. It's mano a mano. So
- 6:59you know, and it's for the name of La Parca.
- 7:02If La Parca Triple A lost, he would have to unmask
- 7:06and give away, give the name and the whole thing
- 7:09back to LA Park. So, you know, Matt. If you want
- 7:15to cut us down in en espanol, por favor I'm ready
- 7:20to go when you're ready to go man The whole thing
- 7:58back to LA part So, you know Matt if you want
- 8:05to cut us down in en espanol, por favor I'm ready
- 8:10to go when you're ready to go man Can we say
- 8:41that that um, man, uh court bower might have
- 8:46been like one of the greatest food sayers of
- 8:49all time Maybe you know, please don't tell me
- 8:59they're gonna play thriller twice in a row No,
- 9:02they're just going to keep playing it. Don't
- 9:05worry. Oh good, they're not going to do the old
- 9:09trick of essentially doing what some places do,
- 9:12where they stop the music and play it again.
- 9:18Oh, Roldan's with it. Yeah, he's coming down
- 9:21with... Dorian Roldan was actually a big heel.
- 9:25Still is? Yeah, big Rudolf back then. Kind of
- 9:31like a Mr. Mankowski. these days he just has
- 9:37Vikingo and Omar and whatever the WWE wrestlers
- 9:43if you like bringing over also you know shout
- 9:46out to Dorian for losing all that weight because
- 9:48man he looks great oh yeah here we go La Parca
- 10:00I must admit, as much as I'm happy that AAA has
- 10:03now been able to be seen by a more global audience
- 10:07because of the WWE acquisition, I do miss the
- 10:11old style of how the deportes television looks
- 10:14when you watch the old stuff. Yeah. there's just
- 10:21something unique about it especially from someone
- 10:24like myself that only saw it like once a week
- 10:28for an hour on a monday night for like two years
- 10:31with cmll oh i lied they're they're gonna play
- 10:41it over again but i love the triple a team i
- 10:43love this triple a team from rocky four you know
- 10:47the most american oh yeah So in that promo in
- 11:00the first promo LA Park said you know you're
- 11:03the fake I'm the real wrestling only cares about
- 11:06me and there's only room for one the original
- 11:09and then Laparca there the new Laparca is saying
- 11:13no Laparca belongs to Tirpila I am Laparca the
- 11:17name is for me and I'm taking it to levels you
- 11:20haven't. That's basically the problem. And you
- 11:25managed to explain that more concise than Ray
- 11:27Mysterio did when they tried to have him do the
- 11:30translation on Triple R. Honest to God, right?
- 11:36I was watching the episode where they're trying
- 11:37to explain Dorian's kill turn. And Ray is trying
- 11:44his best to translate it for us on YouTube what
- 11:47was going on but because Well, Don didn't do
- 11:50the he did the cadence really quick, right? He
- 11:52didn't keep up. So in the end, he just gave up.
- 11:55I'm just like, just put subtitles underneath.
- 11:57Just do that. So like, it's so crazy. The Spanish
- 12:02commentary, if you hear it in AEW or WWE, they're
- 12:06they're basically real time translating the promo,
- 12:09which is crazy. Yeah. Damn, this is some horror
- 12:20right here. Oh, please say we're gonna have a
- 12:24chair off where the chairs go whack whack whack
- 12:27I'm just gonna let you be surprised about this
- 12:32man I I do expect it to get very bloody if I
- 12:38know matches of LA Park in them they do end up
- 12:42having some blood Especially when he would just
- 12:48go off script in MLW and basically beat the shit
- 12:50out of the rest Which is what led him to him
- 12:54being fired from MLW with his stuff. The great
- 12:59thing about this match is the crowd is so behind
- 13:02La Parca because they pretty much follow along
- 13:06with him over the last 10 years when he took
- 13:08over the game. And you can hear it. This feels
- 13:14big too. This is a real triple mania. We got
- 13:24a feeling out period LA park is stuffs that take
- 13:29down and is now dropping a hammer fist on La
- 13:32Barca Yeah, I'm gonna call this like a shoot
- 13:35fight. Oh, yeah We got the chair To the face
- 13:45no hands up Just clobbered him with a chair.
- 13:50What year was this again? 2010. Everyone finally
- 13:57being aware of CTE. Okay. LA Park acting like
- 14:06he's the Mexican Matthew Justice. As long as
- 14:12he doesn't try to leap off any balconies and
- 14:15oh! Just tossed it at him. I always love the
- 14:25parkas punches because he always looks like he's
- 14:27killing a guy and you know where in the The in
- 14:47-match promo. Love that. Such a dick move. That
- 14:53was one of the only good things to come out the
- 14:55Thunderdome era of wrestling, which is - Oh!
- 15:01One of the only good things to come out the Thunderdome
- 15:07era of WWE was people had to learn to cut promos
- 15:11a bit more during the matches. Yeah. Probably
- 15:15the only good thing to come out of it. Joaquin,
- 15:19well done. Talking shit. And La Parka. He has...
- 15:25Yo. Dorian is, you know, kind of acting like
- 15:28a shield. Look at all these guys. I was going
- 15:31to say, is this when... Has Dorian done the stuff
- 15:35with... Has he created the Superhero group with
- 15:37Conan yet? Or is that later on? Which time, man?
- 15:43Well... Probably. But we got LA Parqueza out
- 15:48to send La Parqueza into the front row. He really
- 15:55helped the fans. I was so glad the fans actually
- 15:58bothered to move. If it was CMLL, they probably
- 16:00wouldn't have moved. You know, that's so crazy.
- 16:03Some guys in CMLL, they just land on the old
- 16:05people in the front row. They're like, I've been
- 16:09on this for a long enough. I don't need to move.
- 16:13I'm comfortable. oh here we go ripping at the
- 16:15mask every time i love this oh oh hammer 12 to
- 16:226 elbows if this wasn't usc he'd be disqualified
- 16:27if it was right perfectly fine dorian and walking
- 16:39just giving each other the people other side
- 16:43eye there we go walk all time everybody so i
- 16:49thought like fuck it walking board time let me
- 16:52get my breath back Wolf wolf son, wolf wolf king.
- 17:03You hear Conan on commentary. Running up the
- 17:10ramp. Running? What's going on here? L .A. Park
- 17:23happy to have that reprieve that dude's been
- 17:26mollywopped this whole match That's how much
- 17:36heat this dude has man, I'm telling you the crowd
- 17:39loves the new La Parca The closest American wrestling
- 17:45has had heat where they have phone trashed in
- 17:47the ring in about the last Let's say decade was
- 17:53Matt Cardona revealing himself to be the hidden
- 17:56druid and beating up Nick Gage and then winning
- 17:58the GCW title. Oh yeah, was that a fan throw
- 18:02a pizza cutter into the ring? I think so, yeah.
- 18:07That was the bit that pissed Meltzer off. He
- 18:10was like, people should be throwing trash in
- 18:12the ring in 2021 and I'm like, dude! They won't
- 18:17meet one day. You won't eat the next day. You'll
- 18:19get pissed off. There's no heat make up your
- 18:22mind Yes, sir As long as no fans answer the ring
- 18:27and get the shit being out of being idiotic going
- 18:30the ring then that's fine I used to say it's
- 18:34like part of you. I Used to say la party not
- 18:38la park cuz I was oh, yeah I'm a stupid gringo
- 18:42gringo ladies and gentlemen does not mean white
- 18:44boy Let's want that really It just means foreign.
- 18:48It's the same like gaijin kind of thing. Oh,
- 18:51okay only I guess only trying to move away from
- 18:56gaijin now in Japan. I'm sure there's another
- 19:00word I know there was a word they used in that
- 19:06show Shogun where like savage or something, but
- 19:13I'm not gonna say it LaParca getting put on top
- 19:17for a superplex. LA Park gonna dunk him on his
- 19:20head. He's gonna go for the... What are you doing
- 19:23here? He's gonna try to... Oh, right into the
- 19:26ring post! Okay, he's not blocking it, ladies
- 19:31and gentlemen. He is taking those turnbuckle
- 19:33shots to the dome. And he just did a... He is
- 19:38not being taken care of. I love how the cameras
- 19:44panned out here, straight away you can fully
- 19:46see Howay Park is warning it over his fallen
- 19:50foe after he's just banged his head into the
- 19:52rainbow three times pretty much legit. I mean
- 19:58it's not Nigel McGuinness in Liverpool level
- 20:01but it's close. La Parca taking a bite out of,
- 20:07LA Park taking a bite out of La Parca, oh man.
- 20:11he is on ice skates here through the table you
- 20:24know I always like the six -sided ring in AAA
- 20:27because it looks cool it looks cool it looks
- 20:30different there's all these different angles
- 20:32You know, six termicles. What about TNA? I think
- 20:39they should be using it right now. I'm not sure
- 20:41why they're not. At least it makes you like stand
- 20:44out like When I think TNA I think of the six
- 20:48-sided ring. I don't think of a four -sided ring.
- 20:51It helps part of the identity of the rest of
- 20:54the team. But maybe Jeff A. Jarrett has it at
- 20:59home somewhere. Oh I was hoping that uh an mlp
- 21:06that uh scott diemora would have brought it back
- 21:09Oh, well maybe if we were if we were lucky we
- 21:16could have had anything global Also, we haven't
- 21:20seen it in Triple H a lot lately, especially
- 21:23since the What's Up WWE takeover. I don't think
- 21:25we've seen it at all. They used to bring it out
- 21:29for specialty things, but they haven't used it
- 21:32since like three years ago, two years ago. Oh,
- 21:36a piece of the table, like in WCW Revenge. I
- 21:41was gonna say backstage, it's so... We'll track
- 21:47them right on the head. Oh It nearly flew into
- 21:50the crowd as well with the piece of table He
- 21:57nearly ended up doing the trick Williams with
- 22:00the microphone He's gonna leave here With something
- 22:07He is destroying this man Just abandon the promotion
- 22:36I'm guessing it was probably over money You know,
- 22:42I know we do the show that's my royalty and we're
- 22:45seeing chairs and tables here but like this show
- 22:49isn't like Merely just like, you know classic
- 22:56catch -and -sketch can We watch all the matches
- 22:59that are sort of important to me as a fan. This
- 23:02is important to me because these are two of my
- 23:05favorite luchadors. And they are, and LA Park
- 23:08is just killing La Park. He's about to smash
- 23:10them with the chair again. He's got the chair
- 23:16on the table. I like that La Parka, Chipayi La
- 23:22Parka is just taking these turnbuckle and ring
- 23:24pose shots without putting his hands up. It looks
- 23:26like he's actually dying here. We're getting
- 23:28a super powerbomb? What are we gonna get here?
- 23:33L .A. Park, we're gonna get something here. Superflex?
- 23:39Superflex! And! Oh! Through the chair on the
- 23:42table. And from the chair and the table. As Eddie
- 23:47Kingston would say, oh, god, this sucks! He's
- 23:54going superflex and he wants a... Like that that
- 23:59suplex wasn't so clean that it looked like yeah
- 24:02I like that La parca is just like roaming around
- 24:11days still just selling the massages covering
- 24:14his face LA Park just you know, just just eating
- 24:24that now he's getting his match, right tick for
- 24:30tat i know we're getting a little bit of the
- 24:42visuals of their faces here ladies and gentlemen
- 24:44which is you know this is a classic lucha when
- 24:47two mascots are fighting they uh especially in
- 24:51uh on the rights match uh they have to show some
- 24:55of their face oh now the la part got sent into
- 24:59the front row and this time he didn't have to
- 25:05pay when the mask is like that i don't know how
- 25:14like they can even wrestle it's just like we
- 25:20have some red we have we have officially had
- 25:23the crimson mask you know his mask might be ripped
- 25:27but he's wearing the crimson one right now yeah
- 25:31but i was wondering as well why the the party
- 25:35that we're using is essentially the best we could
- 25:38get of the match so if the party is a bit blurry
- 25:40we do apologize You should get when you follow
- 25:44the watch on them. Yeah Oh headbutts Viva La
- 25:55Parca Damn. Oh boy. La Parca just hit him with
- 25:58a straight. No, that looked, holy shit. And LA
- 26:04Park went down. Oh no. We're going for, the Durantes
- 26:08is trying to stop him from doing the pile driver.
- 26:12On the floor. That's a heavy belt. What's on
- 26:41there? That sounded like something. Pick leather
- 26:44right there. Oh Parker going up top the high
- 26:51rent district, you know, this is high risk for
- 26:53a reason Backfire that's why they call it high
- 27:01risk ladies and gentlemen, you took your back
- 27:03on your opponent. You're always gonna you're
- 27:06playing You turn your back on your opponent,
- 27:17that's your fault if you get messed up. L .A.
- 27:20Park got into the top rope, but he's taking a
- 27:24lot of time getting up there. That backfired.
- 27:33Got the Quentin Tarantino special all foot to
- 27:37the face. Oh, here we go. Tope. it's a shame
- 28:00you know look this man hits it perfect every
- 28:04time it's a shame how Loparca had passed away
- 28:08on a move he's done like thousands of times you
- 28:15know but we see him here and he hits it perfectly
- 28:18oh yeah I'm not gonna recommend people watch
- 28:24Loparca versus Roush Just to watch that because
- 28:28I'm not a macabre sort of person no, this is
- 28:33a This is how the parker would eat his topi.
- 28:36It's always it's a nice topi But like LA Park
- 28:40is back up and he's stretching him out He's been
- 28:47all the way back. I don't think I can bend like
- 28:53that The refs is checking his arm to see if he's
- 28:58going out one Dos? No! He still has life in him.
- 29:07You know man, I've come back around. They should
- 29:11do the three falls for everybody. Like, stop
- 29:14with the one and that's it. And then the other
- 29:17guy. Oh yeah! That really annoyed me during the
- 29:22AJ. Make up your minds like like in America like
- 29:31even like Bryce Rumsberg, right Bryce, you know
- 29:35Phoenix Phoenix backstabber Last time I think
- 29:56I saw that woman that they cut to in the crowd
- 29:58and I can't remember her name. I can't remember
- 30:00why. That was when Phoenix did his move and just
- 30:04flew right into her. Boy the last thing Phoenix
- 30:09did before he left to go WWE. What I love about
- 30:15this match is you really feel everything that
- 30:20LA Park is doing. like everything has purpose
- 30:23everything is leading to something and like he
- 30:27lets the he lets the audience sort of like absorb
- 30:30it and like he he's just embracing that he doesn't
- 30:36want to lose his livelihood he's fighting essentially
- 30:40for his livelihood yes it's not a mask versus
- 30:42mask man but code breaker kind of i was gonna
- 30:53say kind of a code breaker yeah Or as Bushi calls
- 30:59it, the MX. He didn't quite get all of it though.
- 31:07No. He did not get all of it and that's why he
- 31:12didn't get the win on that one. Plus the left
- 31:16count is a bit slow. As Tirante seems to do.
- 31:24And this is Tirante senior. Oh, Tirante senior!
- 31:29Ah, I didn't even know it was a senior junior,
- 31:32but it was just one guy. Like legit. There we
- 31:39go. Wait. Nice boot to the face. L .A. Power
- 31:51slam. Wow, that was a slow count. Ellie Park
- 32:01should be mad right now. That's the most of his
- 32:04face I think I've seen. He has the full mouth
- 32:07exposed. DDT. Uno, dos. These are some really
- 32:32slow counts. Yeah, even by the Toronto's family
- 32:38standard, that's slow. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Well,
- 32:53he just smacked him. Is he going for it? No.
- 33:02Hold on. Reverse DDT. Final cut. Final cut. There
- 33:06we go. One, two. Oh, he just got the arm up barely.
- 33:15Ooh. That was a nice, that was nice. You know,
- 33:20there's an art to the kick -out, right? Timing
- 33:25the shoulder coming up, timing when to just move
- 33:29your body as opposed to do a really big kick
- 33:31-out. He just got the shoulder up. Kick in the
- 33:36head. Bust a kick right to the head. LA Park
- 33:45is not playing around here, ladies and gentlemen.
- 33:48No, he is not. He's gonna go for a surf he's
- 34:15gonna rip the mask Oh shit! They blurred out!
- 34:20We had to suddenly blur out the face there. A
- 34:23bit too much coming out of the mask there. It
- 34:33was lucky fans of Iadi got to get a full look
- 34:35of La Parca without the mask. La Parca original.
- 34:41Oh he is now. You know what annoys me? It annoys
- 35:01me when people say shit about Christ getting
- 35:04in the way of the man. And then literally in
- 35:06Mexico, you have referees literally pushing wrestlers
- 35:10off. No one bats an eye. No one gets mad. All
- 35:21I care about is the referee calling the match.
- 35:26Call the match. Count the three. Just count the
- 35:29three. When you don't count the three, it makes
- 35:33it look worse. Oh, there he goes. He's fine.
- 35:43He's fine! Uh -oh. He might not be in a minute!
- 35:50Oh, okay. LA Park just took him out. The ref
- 35:55is out. The paid ref is out. Trying to revive
- 36:00his La Paca. Oh, Charles Robertson would have
- 36:08took that so much better. Charles Robertson would
- 36:11have gone whack! Charles Robinson wouldn't have
- 36:15done a flip off of that. That was crazy. Yes!
- 36:19I mean, that thumb piece that we've seen of shoulder
- 36:22blocked him in the last game of the match, that
- 36:25was fucking hilarious. Look at that little niche.
- 36:32For the first time in the match, Elie Loparca
- 36:34has the upper hand. Yeah. Oh, damn it. It's gone.
- 36:41And it's gone. Big clothesline by LA Park. Okay,
- 36:48we're about to go do the big comeback now. Big
- 36:53clothesline. La Parka is looking for a referee
- 36:58and there is none. Oh no. Reversed. No! Joaquin
- 37:16stopped him. Joaquin grabbed the leg. You would
- 37:26think that he would want his guy to win by any
- 37:29means, but he didn't want him to do the tombstone.
- 37:32Crazy. We got the chair now. Crowd is cheering
- 37:44for La Parca. LA Park telling the audience to
- 37:52kiss his butt. Always awesome. Here we go. Now
- 37:55he's going for his own merenete. The tombstone.
- 37:59On the chair. On the chair. Oh, he is done, ladies
- 38:04and gentlemen. The tombstone. That is illegal.
- 38:07That is... He's trying to... Not just end this
- 38:10man's career, he's trying to end his life. Uh
- 38:15oh, here we go. Is he gonna dance? No, he's wiping
- 38:21the blood of Lopaka on the chest first. Uh oh,
- 38:25well done. Oh no, oh no. Take it. Oh, saving
- 38:32his brother. Oh, right in the face. Oh, right
- 38:40on the top of the head. He's trying to get his
- 38:42hands up. block his face but he didn't talk the
- 38:44top of his head holy crap yeah i think what he
- 38:52was supposed to get boom in front of the stairs

- 39:03dorian down walking boom right at the top of
- 39:09the head wait a minute dorian turned on la park
- 39:17two chair shots They're putting him on top. They
- 39:48put LaParca on top. They put LaParca on top of
- 39:51L .A. Park. Oh, L .A. Park still did not win.
- 39:59Did he win? L .A. Park won because of Peros del
- 40:13Mall. Oh my gosh, Perito coming out. L .A. Park
- 40:25is one of the best in the fucking game. Thanks
- 40:29to Peros del Mall. Wow. Just so much chaos going
- 40:42on right now. Wait a minute, who's just come
- 40:46out of the vehicle? There's Perito. Oh shit!
- 40:59It's wild! He's in the building! There's LA Park
- 41:07with one of his sons. See, we need more factions
- 41:19like this in western wrestling, you know? Just
- 41:25chaos. That's what I like. Yeah! Just a big group
- 41:28of guys who will beat the crap out of you and
- 41:30just causing... I mean Tony Khan has been doing
- 41:34that with the Death Riders and Don Callis stuff
- 41:36in recent weeks, but we need more... I don't
- 41:42even think there was a finish in that. They just
- 41:44sort of raised his hands. There's just a bunch
- 41:49of chaos happening right now. I think... I think
- 41:51what happened was... Tarantus got knocked out.
- 41:56The Valdans based the six vaults with each other.
- 41:59Torian Laparca turned on him to join with Peros
- 42:03del Mal. And now the Vodans have realized that
- 42:11they're now in the world of beach shit. Uh oh.
- 42:23Is the fan trying to get in? Yes. Oh man, I love
- 42:28that. The classic non -finish. Okay. We got a
- 42:33non -finish. Oh my god. Oh. Damien's in... Damien's
- 42:45in... Damien's in... I think... There's a few
- 42:51people I recognize. Oh man, you know that was
- 43:13that was a crazy finish You know later on the
- 43:18parka to play gets the name But you know, it's
- 43:22pretty funny that WWE has gone to the do a grande
- 43:26americano original versus a grande americano
- 43:30Yeah funny But you know, I like that. I love
- 43:34that match a lot because it's chaotic. It's violent.
- 43:38It's It's lucha man That ending is just that
- 43:43you're like, oh He's Wait, he's just turned on
- 43:47the road on why is this and what's this to be
- 43:50getting that if I was dumb? I would have been
- 43:53in this cuz pedestal mall would jump from CMLL
- 43:57to to chip away yeah, and my like this is like
- 44:06sort of a This is just like a big reveal and
- 44:13I love Love everyone in there like I don't know
- 44:16the big I love a parka. I love but yeah, I love
- 44:20LA Park This was just so much chaos going on
- 44:27and yeah, man. I'm so happy to share this with
- 44:30you We definitely have to do a chaos month We
- 44:35should call it chaos month where just the match
- 44:38just ends in it came thrown out for whatever
- 44:41reason or Shit goes down Like a new heel stables
- 44:47formed or something Yeah, so this was their debut.
- 44:55This was their debut in AAA. Oh, right. So yeah,
- 45:03Damien, 6666, Halloween. It was pretty crazy
- 45:10during this time in 2010 because you also had
- 45:12like guys like Marco Corleone, Rocky Romero,
- 45:16Alex Kozlov jump from CMLL to AAA. It's um, you
- 45:22know, you also have like guys like Mystical leave
- 45:25AAA for WWE Yeah at the time a lot of guys didn't
- 45:30like being in CML because the old guys refused
- 45:33to move a step aside for the younger talent yeah,
- 45:37this is why you see a lot of those jumps back
- 45:39in the day and Yeah, man, just the chaos of all
- 45:45that That's Lucha Libre in a nutshell. That's
- 45:49triple A in a nutshell. Okay, that's what the
- 45:51original triple A is like. Just so much chaos.
- 45:54Just you don't know what's going on in a good
- 45:56way. Can I just read how they describe it on
- 46:00the Wikipedia? But if you didn't quite get what
- 46:05happened at the end. L .A. Park's teasing using
- 46:08the term Joaquin. Dorian comes in, gets pushed
- 46:11down by Park. Still hits Joaquin with the chair.
- 46:14Dorian turns on him. Then Halloween and Damien
- 46:17666 from Paris Del Mar run to the ring to chase
- 46:20Dorian away, put L .A. Park on top of the parka.
- 46:24Tarante's son comes in to give the count and
- 46:27gives L .A. Park the win. The rest of Paris Del
- 46:31Mar come down. Then Octagon, your favorite, and
- 46:35a bunch of AAA wrestlers get rid of Paris Del
- 46:38Mar. A bit later it was announced the match results
- 46:42had been thrown out due to the interference.
- 46:45And this is the best bit. The following morning,
- 46:49it was confirmed that Tapia had indeed won and
- 46:51would now be known as La Parka once again. However,
- 46:56it gets funnier. However, on June 10th, AAA announced
- 47:01it would respect Mexico City Boxing and Wrestling
- 47:04Commission's decision to throw out the match.
- 47:07And as a result, both men would keep their names.
- 47:12So all this madness. because of the actual rules
- 47:17in Mexico was all for nothing! Park stated that
- 47:28for him the TripleMania match was all about pride
- 47:31and not about names and that all that mattered
- 47:34to him was that he had proven who the true LaParca
- 47:37is and then LaParca defeated LA Parca to rematch
- 47:42on July the 4th and then L .A. Park aligned themselves
- 47:45with Dorian again anyway, for a group called
- 47:49La Sociedad, which consisted of La Legion Extra
- 47:54-Energia, La Milacia, Los Maniacos, and Los Peros
- 47:59del Mar. So after all that, Dorian basically
- 48:03brings everyone together to make a mega -heel
- 48:05stable anyway! We've been in the game for like
- 48:12two months! This was triple A at its peak in
- 48:16the 2000, 2010s. And people think that we used
- 48:20to be hilarious. Brother, you think that TNA
- 48:26doesn't make sense that TNA was full full of
- 48:28chaos. Triple A, man, you never know what you're
- 48:33gonna get. No! I love that, man. I love that
- 48:38finish because it's the best non -finish in wrestling.
- 48:42He gets a visual pin. And they throw it out.
- 48:46So, you know, LA Park, you know, the king of
- 48:48the fake jobs. Love that. Bye, man. Love sharing
- 48:54the Lucha Libre with you, Matt. Love opening
- 48:56your eyes to what's happening in Mexico. This
- 49:00was one of my favorite matches out of La Parca
- 49:03AAA. LA Park is also one of the best brawlers.
- 49:08This was a great match. Two guys putting it all
- 49:10on the line with the, you know, with the silly
- 49:13AAA finish. But I still enjoyed it. I enjoyed
- 49:16my time with you. I didn't feel like I wasted
- 49:18my time the only thing you can do in wrestling
- 49:20that makes you a failure is to Be uninteresting
- 49:24and be boring, but this was all over the place.
- 49:26I loved it Yeah, man, just this is Lucha Libre
- 49:32it could be anything you want it to be and That's
- 49:36what I love about AAA is they always tried not
- 49:39to be you know the traditional They always spat
- 49:42in the face of tradition And that was the cool
- 49:44part about them. But, you know, as we move on,
- 49:49you know, rest in peace, the real AAA. We are,
- 49:53you know, we are in 2026. The whole wrestling
- 49:58world is different. And I wanted to say this
- 50:02because there's a lot of like talk about the
- 50:05colonization of Lucha Libre, American interests
- 50:08making their proxy war for Lucha. Lucha is its
- 50:17own thing. It's part of the culture. Lucha is
- 50:22never going to be dead. And that's all I got
- 50:25to say about that. Lucha will never die. It's
- 50:27always going to be. It's going to exist, whether
- 50:31it's in Arena Mexico or in Tijuana or in Azteca.
- 50:41It's always going to be there. Pro wrestling,
- 50:44mucha libre. It's my favorite style of wrestling.
- 50:47Chaos reigns everywhere. I just love going back
- 50:50there and just feeling that, you know, that was
- 50:54the Peros del Maldivio in Triple A. At the time,
- 50:58it was crazy. Okay, it was crazy. Imagine, damn,
- 51:04imagine like if the bloodline had jumped to AEW.
- 51:09That's how big that is. I mean, you know. they
- 51:14would know internally he'd probably make it that
- 51:17chaotic as well if the board line ever jumps
- 51:19ship he would do something like that yeah but
- 51:24um man we're here to talk we're here we talk
- 51:27triple a we watch triple a we watch la park versus
- 51:30la parca uh name for name and it ended how it
