Daniel Garcia shares video of fan reaction after CMLL event
The Death Riders have CMLL fans all worked up.
Daniel Garcia, Wheeler Yuta, and Claudio Castagnoli wrestled on both Friday’s show at Arena Mexico and Saturday’s at Arena Coliseo. Following Saturday’s event, Garcia posted a video of what appears to be a group of fans mobbing him as he is attempting to leave the venue.
Garcia’s video is available on his Instagram Stories and also in a clip below this article.
Castagnoli defeated Ultimo Guerrero for the CMLL World Heavyweight Championship on Friday’s show. Yuta and Garcia lost a CMLL Tag Team Title match that night to Los Hermanos Chavez. On Saturday’s show, Castagnoli, Garcia, and Yuta defeated Guerrero, Difunto, and Esfinge in the main event.
The Death Riders’ weekend in CMLL was discussed by our own Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer on today’s episode of Wrestling Observer Radio.
Meltzer said of Castagnoli’s match against Guerrero, “It was really something to see. If you like old school wrestling, and old school crowds, and the old territory days world champion match, like a Harley Race match, this was it. It was really a throwback, really fun for me to watch.”
