What happened:
Forastero attempted to foul UG, was stopped, and then used the ropes on a cradle to get a win. The two agreed to a singles match next week. That show was canceled.
Thoughts:
Last week’s version of the main event was a little bit more inspired than this week’s, though neither was great. This one was more going through the motions to get to the singles match and not a great deal more. It was solidly done in the way of all NGD matches but no different from them.
The highlight of the semi-main was the tecnicos and rudos doing the competition for the cheers, Casas getting more cheers than the Chavez, and the Chavez walking out. This was not an especially physical match.
Stigma botched badly in his big singles match. Okumura didn’t catch him on a dive. There wasn’t really anything good to make up for it. It is a sign that the crowd in Puebla has taken to Stigma that this wasn’t booed. It deserved boos.
