Wrestling and horror meant that I was sure to have a good time with this one. I wasn’t in love with it but I enjoyed myself. The expectations were set pretty low early on when Kate the Great and Miss Behave planned their next spot on the fly and said “DDT, make me look good” only to follow up with a choke slam. I will say that later in the match a DDT was done but definitely not in that particular sequence.

La idea trás Dark Match me parece muy atractiva, pero para mí gusto si recae en muchos tropos usuales y un storytelling de lo más básico para una serie b moderna, y lamentablemente si se termina sintiendo algo monótona. Incluso en la parte violenta si se me hizo muy 'meh' teniendo en cuenta que gran parte de la trama gira en torno a la lucha violeta y al cine snuff.

Pero no todo es malo, le destaco el protagónico de Ayisha Issa, el épico cara a cara entre Chris Jericho y Steven Ogg (a.k.a. el pinche Trevor jaja) y toda la ambientación alrededor de las luchas que refleja muy bien el lado independiente del wrestling, que junto a las imágenes sectarias y demoníacas, si te da una vibra aterradora-luchística interesante.🤼

The actual matches were kind of underwhelming & had some cool potential i wish was used more, but it's pretty cool besides that unfortunate wasted potential.
