EMLL
Taped Arena Coliseo, D.F.



Dr. Wagner Jr. (C) & Cien Caras & Scorpio Jr.
vs.
Rayo De Jalisco Jr. (C) & Shocker & Hijo De Lizmark

1) Rudos route here, as they jumped los tecs as they were coming down the aisle. Short fall with Doc pinning Rayo after a basement dropkick. Although it wasn’t necessary, Caras then rolled up Lizmark for good measure.

2) Weak brawling was the story here with the only notable spot being Doc’s now shaved head under the mask, which Rayo pulled off 3 Stooges style. Doc’s mask came off again after he reapplied it, so he rolled outside allowing Lizmark to pin Caras with a crufix. Shocker followed up with a fireman’s carry then standing senton on Scorpio to put 3 on the tree.

3) They focused on science here, but it wasn’t good because Shocker and Doc didn’t face off. Shocker wasn’t on tonight anyway, as he had problems getting on the turnbuckle for his running springboard plancha. Doc kicked a field goal on Rayo, but instead of covering him forced the ref to see if Lizmark would tap to Caras’ abdominal stretch. As he did, Doc went to cover Rayo but Rayo gave him an uppercut low and covered Doc for the win. I wasn’t expecting much here and got less than I hoped for since Doc y Shoc weren’t there usual excellent selves. 13:01


Killer (C) & Violencia & Veneno
vs.
Mascara Ano Dos Mil (C) & Gran Markus Jr. & Poder Boricua
Taped Arena Mexico, D.F.

1) The extraneous Boricuas bailed ringside leaving just Pierroth outside - no Gloria in camouflage though - even during the intros. Usual brawling with Violencia pinning MADM 2 minutes in with a flip senton off the top.

2) Second verse same as the first. Everytime I see these guys it gets a little bit worse. Markus pinned Killer with a splash off the second after the good (oxymoron) guys all clotheslined him.

3) In a shocker, there was no DQ this week. There should’ve been as Markus punted on Killer, but the ref was smart enough to not be watching the match when it happened. But he did turn around in time to count 3 and put us out of our misery. 10:44

A Una Sola Caida:
Giant Silva
vs.
Universo Dos Mil & Apolo Dantes

What you’d expect, Bill Walton facing a 2 on 1 throughout and still dominating the match. Highlight was him chopping Dantes off the second turnbuckle to the floor. Silva also took a bump over the top to the floor off a double dropkick. Silva caught the charging UDM with a spear and then an elbow, which Dos Mil sold like he was dead. Dantes got disqualified a few moments later for a low blow. Not bad for what it was since Silva has a little bit of agility for his size. 6:27

 

AAA
Taped Durango, DGO

 

Los Diabolicos- Mr. Condor (C) & Angel Mortal & Gallego
vs.
Black Family- Cuervo (C) & Scoria & Ozz

1) If you remember the Nitros and Thunders when multiple Crow Stings would come out then you have your vision of La Black Familia. Mortal jobbed to a standing moonsault, but Tirantes then awarded the fall to Condor, I guess for excessive abuse. He was in a triple submission, combo figure four and eagle stretch and Tiratanes Jr. disqualified Black Family for it.

2) Los Diablicos dominated from start to finish here with the help of a couple of 1x4’s that Gallego brought out during the fall. For some reason they weren’t DQ’d for using them, but were by heel ref Salazar for Mike Gallego using a meltdown and some mudhole stomping. Beats the hell out of me, too.

3) Black Family got some face heat here, which was a surprise considering how bad this match sucked. Chessman y Electroshock finally came out to save the day, and beat the spirit out of Los D’s with multiple chairshots giving them the DQ win in 12:02.

La Parka (C) & Hijo de Perro Aguayo & Mascara Sagrada
vs.
Elecroshock (C) & Drako & Chessman

1) Rudos attacked before los tecs could even get out of the entrance way to the ramp leading to the ring, which sucked because Parka couldn’t do his helacool entrance. As usual, lots of “Perro” chants throughout. Also lots of weapons used here, and Perro jobbed to a fast count off a chairshot even though he was selling it like he was out. And he should’ve being that he just stood there and took it from Shock; he didn’t even raise his arms to protect himself. He did look confused however on the outside between falls like he couldn’t understand why the crowd was chanting for him. And neither can I since he’s the weakest and worst booked top face I’ve ever seen. And he’s nowhere close to a good worker either.

2) Lots of heat between refs Salazar and Tirantes Sr. carrying over into this fall. Jr’s comeback got monster heat at the start as he chased a flopping and crawling Electro up the entrance way stairs and then back into the ring. He even pushed over Salazar when he got back in. Match then settled down a bit into some actual science with Parka then Segrada vs. Chessman. Perro and Shock were in next, and Perro was beating up on him when the Black Family returned Electro’s earlier favor and made it 6 on Perro. Shock shattered some kinda board over Perro’s head and then los rudos sorta crucified him before monster amount of run-ins came from the back. Bloody as hell and stiff crucified Perro was carried to the back as los rudos battled the Kiss guys and Los Diablolicos. Obviously, the match had now officially fallen apart as Perro was interviewed in the back as he attempted to and then did make it back to the ring. Everyone but the original 6 then went to and watched from the entrance way. Sagrada took out Chessman and Parka hit a plancha into the first row on Drako. Perro went at it with Shock in the ring and got a slow count by Salazar on a sunset flip. After a spinebuster, Salazar counted one then pulled Perro off Shock. He held Perro long enough for Shock to miss Perro and catch him with a stiff kick to the chest. But Salazar recover to roll shambo Perro as he climbed the turnbuckles and tried to count 3 as Shock covered Perro with his feet on the ropes. He got to 2 before Tirantes finally did something other than watch in horror, and grabbed Salazar preventing the 3. Chessman grabbed Tirantes’ leg from outside giving Salazar the chance for a fast 3 and rudos sweep in 18:12. Tirantes finally had all he could stands and he could stands no more, so he and Salazar exchanged punches before he caught the charging Salazar with a dropkick. They went at it some more before finally being separated. Crowd was really into it though, but Tirantes wound up hard selling a rabbit punch and was helped out by two doctors. Crowd went home happy though as Perro thanked them after everything finally died down. Match wasn’t good, but was pretty entertaining because of everything going on during it. It did make Perro look really bad again, but he’s impossible to hurt so Pena y company continue to schmuck him around.
