recap

Rey Escorpion vs Palacio Negro [Forjando un Idolo]: Good tecnico/rudo battle, though there were a couple bits just too staged (Palacio leaning out of the ring for no reason and just waiting there to be kicked; actually unneeded since they ended in the same spot), but plenty of good nutty stuff to make up for it. Your typical really good novato match in that way. The counter dropkick is totally over as a finish in all matches, which is kind of the weirdest thing.

Angel de Oro

Ángel de Oro vs Rey Cometa [Forjando un Idolo]: good. I hope Cometa lifting Palacio Negro’s biggest spotlight move is leading to either a in-ring feud or them being teammates, and not just other types of feuds. This one felt laid out like Angel de Oro was meant to come off much better than Rey Cometa, and he did.

Blue Panther

Black Warrior, Blue Panther, La Sombra vs Atlantis, Último Guerrero, Volador Jr.: Match was nothing of importance but Blue Panther looked really good and everyone else was fine. Warrior continues to exist, if only on the edges of our memory. Match was perfectly acceptable main event stuff.
