recap: here

Fenix, Lolita, Mari Apache vs Billy Boy, Jennifer Blake, Sexy Star: Two matches in, and Lolita still comes off a star. It’s possible she may be someone who can do neat headscissors spots and not a lot more, but then that’d make her “Lita” at worse, and that’s pretty good. Two matches in, and we know Fenix has a really different dive and not a lot else. At least he made it to two matches! The Tirantes angle seems like it may have come to late: he’s facing Apache because he’s a horrible biased referee, except he’s refereed fairly in every match (including this one!) I’m fine with this, less evil refreeing the better.

Charly Manson, Escoria, Nygma vs Espíritu, Joe Lider, Nicho el Millionario: Maybe something like 75% of Nygma’s offense was clipped out, often right as he was going for a move. That’s never a good sign. Other people were fine. Charly being the evil guy in this match and being attacked by Zorro means Zorro’s the good guy, right? I’m willing to go with that.

Heavy Metal vs Electroshock in a street fight: this one was different because they put each other thru more stuff, you see. There was a really loud ding noise when Metal got hit with the bottle, and I hope that means they added it in later and Heavy Metal didn’t really take a glass bottle to the head. Silver Kain really needs to learn how to take no for answer, there’s got to be someone else he can add to his group who won’t be this much trouble.

Carlito vs Jack Evans vs Decnnis vs Ozz in a AAA’s Rey de Rey tournament semifinal match: Carlito was just “Carlito” here. They should probably decide these things and then tell everyone. He was not particularlly interesting and not particuarlly over, but I would’ve tried him here too. Sexy Star, Italian, was at least funny.

So…they gave away Billy was the Bizarro and traitor on TV, and this was still a surprise come next week? Stealing outright from Oscar winning movies is a better idea than being inspired by WWE, let’s go with that.

Cuervo, El Mesías, Extreme Tiger vs LA Park, Silver King, Último Gladiador: Mesias seemed to lose two gallons of blood last week…which just meant he showed up too late to actually get beat up this week and they needed four people to hold him back. Odd they would’ve let Mesias get his pinfall back on LA Park here, when that’s supposed to be one of the driving points of the PPV and they’ve given Extreme Tiger absolutely nothing to do here. Tiger pinning Gladiador wouldn’t do that much for him, but not much is still more than seeming like a completely meaningless guy in this match (which is what they communicated in the post match.)
