PC: Switching to an overnight schedule for the week, so no Raw recap tonight. Instead, we return to the land of Velocity. Last time we watched Juvi beat Paul London in a singles contest. This time we see if London and Brian Kendrick (aka Spanky) can beat Super Crazy and Psicosis (aka the Mexicools…aka guys who were awesome ten years before this match).
Coach: Youtube Velocity matches are the fast food of wrestling. Delicious, but not much substance. No reason to download, no reason to keep them, and over in less than ten minutes.
PC: We are two minutes in and it has been all intros so far. The match is only seven and a half minutes long. Fast food indeed.
Coach: The intros are done and we’re halfway through the clip.
PC: This is apparently for the tag titles. Super Crazy and Kendrick start it off.
Coach: Super Crazy and Psicosis, huh? And they’re playing off the fact that they’re Mexican instead of the fact that they are mentally unbalanced? I don’t like it. It would be like if Earthquake and Typhoon were called the Beard Guys instead of the Natural Disasters.
PC: I would watch a tag team called The Beard Guys.
Coach: I don’t like the long shorts/boots combo of London and Kendrick. It’s indicative of the John Cena jorts era.
PC: The match, lest we forget about it, is a solid back and forth velocity encounter. Lots of rollups and reversals. Psicosis wins with a roll-up with assistance from the ropes.
Coach: It’s over?
Final Thoughts
Coach: I feel no different about my life. Though I did realize that wardrobe decisions are at least 50% of what makes wrestling funny.
PC: This reminded me to eat at the Lucha Libre-themed taco place that just opened in the East Village.
