Watching pro wrestling for a long time, sometimes, there are matches that are dominated by one wrestler or one team, but the opponent "somehow" wins.
This happened yesterday at the WAR Lucha Libre Ecuador show in Quito, Ecuador.
This blogger is not going to dwell on the match. However, for those who didn't see it, it's toward the end of this clip, roughly 41 minutes into the video. Here's the link and please click to check it out.

What this blogger wants to share is about two wrestlers who traveled from Peru to Ecuador to take part in WAR's latest show, It's Time. According to their Facebook page, the Pairs World Tag Team Championship was vacant and a tournament was decided to crown a new champion. Eight tag teams were involved including Peru's best in Ramses Darkstrike and Havoc. They are known as part of El Sindicate with GeneraXion Lucha Libre in Lima, Peru. The event took place this past Saturday.
Two teams, El Sindicate and the team they faced, Guayaco Power from WAR Ecuador, wrestled twice before during the elimination tournament. Guayaco Power is an experienced team that has wrestled as a team for a couple of years.
What struck this wrestling fan was the fact that Ramses and Havoc appeared less tired than their opponents. Also, by the luck of the draw, El Sindicate had just wrestled a team prior to the championship match with virtually little break. This is not to make an excuse for the Peruvian team, but what is posted here is fact.
The fact that Ramses and Havoc reached the third round is a tribute to their conditioning. This blogger is not certain about this but this could have been the first time that both wrestlers performed in another country. That alone speaks volumes. I'm certain that they appreciated the international experience of wrestling outside Peru.
