4) Rey Bucanero L Héctor Garza and Rush and Blue Panther and Felino and Máximo and Texano and Mr. Águila and Negro Casas and Terrible [cage, hair]
Mr. Aguila did a big dive at the start of the match. Escape went Rush, Mr. Aguila, Terrible, Texano, Hector Garza, Maximo, Panther and Negro, leaving Felino and Bucanero behind. Bucanero absurdly went for a top rope ‘rana, which fed perfectly into Felino’s superbomb. Felino had his a foot on the rope for the pin, though not until about 2 1/3. Bucanero was shaved.

Negro Casas was honored after the second match. Someone with 40 years of experience will be honored next week.

In post shows interviews, Bucanero said he won the main event, because Felino had to cheat to beat him, and this is just the beginning of his feud. Felino says his plan all along was to face Bucanero in the final, and the end justifies means he used to win. Felino wants a shot at Bucanero’s title now. CMLL Gaceta has their own post match video interviews.

If Bucanero vs Felino was going to be the final all along, it was self defeating to put in the cage instead of building up that rivalry stronger.

Order of escape is Halloween, Monster Clown, Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Pirata Morgan Jr., Barba Roja, Damian 666, Psycho Clown, Bestia 666, Murder Clown. That left Perro Jr., Wagner, and Pirta Morgna in the cage, but then people started going in and out. Bestia came in, Perro left, Wagner left, X-Fly (!), Halloween, Damian 666, Hijo del Pirata all came in, Bestia 666 took a martinete but was stretchered out (??) and then all the Perros left with Bestia, leaving Pirata Sr. vs Hijo del Pirata. Son beat father for his hair.

Ras de Lona was largerly a hype show for a show that took place last night. Lots of people talking about winning the Leyenda de Plata who did not actually win, then 10 seconds of clips of the finish. Same thing with the cage match. No shots of the crowd, cage match was shot all overhead.

Both Lyger and Ray answered questions in Spanish for their interviews. 10/21 and 10/28 will be Viernes Tapatios shows in Guadalajara, and this Tuesday in DF is a Fan Appreciation show, as noted below. Previous comments on the level of appreciation still apply.
