Barrier 1, Ultimo Dragoncito 0

Último Dragoncito vs Pequeño Warrior in a lightning match: Extended first fall to a three fall title match, except it was actually a one fall match and they didn’t accomplish much before it ended. No near fall teases or even really big moves until the dive and the finish. You never know what you’re going to get it with Warrior but I hoped for more out of this one.

this could've gone a little better

Dalis la Caribeña, Dark Angel, Estrellita vs Amapola, Princesa Blanca, Princesa Sugheit: Finish was total amateur hour. The invisible person standing behind Estrellita must’ve really got doused by the powder. Dalis was so shaken up by the thing, it was all she could do but to stand right next to the pin and make no attempt to break it up. I am bored with this feud, and it’s not any good. The one tecnica who is good is the one they do nothing with. This all makes me sad.

 

15 years of this bit? Still amusing.

Atlantis, La Sombra, Shocker vs Felino, Último Guerrero, Volador Jr. 2 Fun if hurried main event. They were moving so fast in the first fall, it seemed like someone was messing with the recording, but they got everything in. Nothing of significance here, but Shocker seemed very motivated given the chance.
