El Generico vs. PAC from AAPW 2012

The review was taken from my 2012 review of the show.

Recap from TJ Hawke:

Some in the crowd clearly know who these two are, but others must not have the internet. They will learn.

I am so fucking excited to watch this match. They start out very respectful, with neither man getting the advantage. Everything was beautiful. PAC took Generico down with a hurricanrana, which caused Generico to roll to the floor. PAC then hit a beautiful Asai Moonsault. Back in the ring, PAC was in control, but Generico came back with a backbreaker. PAC cut him off and started to work over Generico some. They slowed things down for the heat segment. Generico came back with a clothesline and sent him to the outside. Generico then wiped him out with a somersault plancha. Back in the ring, Generico hit a top-rope crossbody: 1…2…NO! PAC did a handspring and landed on Generico’s shoulders, and then hit a hurricanrana pin: 1…2…NO! Standing Shooting Star Press: 1…2…NO! Generico came back with an exploder into the corner. They traded some forearms until Generico hit a Yakuza Kick. Generico set up for the top rope brainbuster, but PAC sent him to the mat, and hit a Cork Screw Shooting Star Press: 1…2…3!!!

These guys probably could have a *** match in their sleep, but they went out there and tried to give the fans a spectacular showing. And they did just that. Clearly, this is not the typical ROH, PWG, or DGUSA crowd that we see them work in front of, but that just allowed them to prove that they can take any crowd in the world on a wild ride. This match was beautiful.

Match Rating: ****
