6) Casandro & Discovery b Skayde & X-Fly
7) Dragón Lee (CMLL) & Tinieblas Jr. DQ Psicosis II & Rush

I went to this show! It was not bad. Much bigger building than last week’s show, much bigger crowd (though maybe the same around capacity %.) Last three matches were the best of the show, with money being thrown in after the fifth and a little bit after the sixth. Skayde & X-Fly tried to walk out after the first fall – they won, and they knew in this country the matches were one fall. (Casandro explained they were wrestling Mexico style.) That was much more a brawl; not any Skayde/Discovery mat work. Main event was also the house show brawling match, with all four guys going into the crowd. Dragon Lee fought Psicosis and Tinieblas fought Rush for most of the matches, with the brothers interacting only slightly. Show started on time and still went 3:30 hours – they could’ve cut down the time in the first few matches and people would’ve been fine.

4) Trauma I & Trauma II DCOR Dr. Cerebro & Hechicero Facebook video (posted by )
technical match that turned into a brawl with both teams fighting outside for the 20 count
5) Gran Guerrero & Último Guerrero b Caifan & Pagano Facebook video (posted by )
match went on as scheduled despite Pagano joining AAA.

This was Sanchez’s 9th Anniversary show, but had to be a disappointing one – building looked 1/3rd full or less, which had to be a surprise given a cage match and the ‘hot’ UG vs Pagano/Caifan matches. Cage match went on during the middle of the show, which is weird.

CMLL (SUN) 03/27/2016 Arena México [CMLL]
1) Leono & Robin b Cholo & Yago
Yago’s debut in a loss.
2) El Cuatrero, Forastero, Sansón b Pegasso, Star Jr., Starman
Forastero’s debut in a loss – though his cousin Sanson was stretchered out.
3) Fuego, Stigma, Tritón DQ Puma, Tiger, Virus
Stigma replaced Delta (second show he’s missed this week.) Virus pulled Triton’s mask for the DQ.
4) Cavernario, Terrible, Vangellys b Blue Panther, Rey Cometa, Valiente
Comandante helped Terrible win.
5) Mephisto, Mr. Niebla, Rey Escorpión b Máscara Dorada, Mistico, Volador Jr.
Mephisto pinned Volador with a Rosa Driver, asked for a NWA WELTER title shot.

I wonder if there might be another TV shake up with CMLL taking back over this day, but CMLL says the Sunday shows aren’t airing on TV.
