>>18808426>as opposed to someone who just loves lucha or movez.I don't agree with this line of thinking where the reasons to enjoy a match are either the out-of-ring angles surrounding it or the specific offensive maneuvers.
I'm not a MOVEZ fan, nor a huge fan of the post-90s style of wrestling storytelling. I enjoy atmosphere, crowd work, emotion and watching wrestlers play off each other (dynamics, styles, gimmicks etc) and CMLL past and present has a lot of what I like.
I wouldn't want someone who's otherwise interested to be scared off from checking out such a historically fun promotion with legitimate casual appeal (though more on the live side than TV) by selling it as though it's a dry workrate fed. It gets a lot of the same unfair dismissals as 80s and 90s Japanese wrestling, which is also great for plenty of non-Meltzer reasons.
