The recap doesn’t exactly list results, but you can put it together based on the pictures.
Legion won the main event cage match with some outside help from X-Pac. Chessman took a big move off a ladder thru a table. Hell Brothers had a valet, but I’m kinda expecting it to be a one time deal.
No Ron Killings in the semimain. I’m not sure that Head Hunter I and Scoria were both supposed to be in the match replacing him, but it effectively worked out that way. Extreme Tiger ran into help his side, and it was very much your usual Mexican Powers match. Shryu Dragon is another indy hardcore wrestler – he fits the Sabu tease without actually costing Sabu money. It looks like Crazy Boy got hurt by the end of this match, and Joe Lider really should be as well. After multiple tables being broken and Extreme Tiger coming off a balcony with a dive, the finish was X-Pac trying to Tombstone Juvy, and Extreme Tiger knocking Juvy on top with a dropkick. Makes you wonder what the point of everything else was.
Super Calo appears to still be wrestling under that name, but as a member of the Guapos. This match was the usual between these sides, and I think Calo picked up the win with a guillotine legdrop (and some help from Alan.) Zorro’s been eating a lot of pins for a guy who seemed to be their new top star.
Tons of dives in the Alas de Oro tournament; that should be interesting to see. Extreme Tiger beat Super Fly to take it.
Oriental won the opener by giving Alfa a German suplex, a reverse of the TripleMania finish and an indication that this will be ongoing. Figure a title match at one of the next two tapings.

Oh boy Shiryu Dragon, it won’t be long before Makabre, Apocalipsis, and the others show up will it.
La nueva era de Triple A = Backyard Wrestling!
Joe Lider now has someone else to hit up during those lonely nights on the road.
The funniest part about all this is if you ask Lider, Crazzy Boy, Extreme Tiger and Shiryu Dragon what the biggest thrill is about being in AAA (and performing in front of nearly 20,000 fans) – their response would be they hope CZW or IWA-MS notices them and brings them in for some shows. Joe Lider mentioned in some interview that the biggest thrill of his career was getting to work against Nate Webb on a TV taping earlier this year.:)
So what does this all mean Robert? Your AAA fandom is dying down? Just wait until Extreme Tiger injures Laredo Kid. It’s bound to happen sadly.
Never question my fandom of any lucha promotion.
How long before the guys at Martinete who work in the yard get tryout matches
DR. XTREME and Joe Lider vs KATO KUNG FU and Extreme Tiger.
Sadly for Mr. Lider, I think he’d be the worst worker in the match.
BAM!

Wow that ladder shot Kenzo did to Manson was impressive…
hehehe, kidding. I’m starting to believe CMLL won’t run their cage match because they know they don’t have anything to offer in one of those match besides the mask/hair falling.
Holy stupidity. Top rope Canadian Destroyer to the outside through a table…

Joe Lider and Shiryu Dragon FOREVER.
I think it was more of a Death Valley Driver from the top turnbuckle to the outside through a table, but who am I to argue…
Besting thing of all was the photographers walking around bored, not given a damn about the spot…
