Rush vs Hiroshi Tanahashi (2013 Campeonato Universal Tournament)

CMLL has a new Universal Champion, Último Guerrero became the 2014 Universal Champion and the first luchador to win it two times after he defeated La Sombra.

To close the Universal Championship topic for this year, I have for you the 2013 final, in which japanese star Hiroshi Tanahashi faced Rush for this Championship. This was Tanahashi's second final, he lost the 2012 final against El Terrible. 

Oh yeah! And I did some research about the fact that how there might be a chance that the Heavyweight Champion dealing with the Lightweight Champion at some point of this tournament, it happend one time, back in the 2011 tournament, Virus CMLL World Lightweight Champion faced Hiroshi Tanahashi who was the IWGP Heavyweight Champion at the time. In case you're wondering about the result of this match, well, Tanahashi defeated Virus.

I leave you with today's match, the first two falls are fast and a bit boring, but the pace picks up by the third fall. I'll see you next week.
