Match 1: Ángel Azteca Jr. vs Súper Comando in a lightning match
Arena Mexico, 04/06/2012

Winner: Super Comando
Match Time: 5:33
Rating: ok
Notes: Joined just before the whistle. Referee is Tigre Hispano.

Lockup, Comando into the ropes, break. Lockup, Angle Azteca headlock, Super Comando out to a front facelock and liking it. Angel Azteca armbar, Comando reverses, Azteca rolls thru and trips Comando up. Circle. Comando single leg, and scissoring the leg. Comando battles free, and they again stand up without having accomplished much. Lockup, Azteca armdrag, evasion, Super Comando monkey flip, Azteca lands on his feet, clothesline misses and Comando boots him. Whip, flapjack by Comando and a dropkick to the face. “OLE”. Super Comando snacks Azteca into the ropes. Whip, press, drop and kick to the face. Comando happy with the way this is going. Whip, tossed, and Azteca down with a 'rana this time. Comando goes out, and Azteca watches, then follows with a tope con giro. Time is 1/3rd over as they pull themselves back in.

Azteca charges Comando, Comando moves and swats Azteca to one knee. Forearm to the back. Whip, sunset flip, Super Comando rolls thru but misses the dropkick. Azteca covers, but does not win on a missed dropkicked. Quick flipping run, Comando dropkicks him out, and dives thru the ropes with a tope. Replay. Comando in first, missing a clothesline, reverse rollup by Azteca, one two NO. Comando checks the count. Azteca casadora cradle, still only two. Comando misses a clothesline, Comando escapes a quebrada, clothesline misses again, Azteca charges - into a escudo? That's basically Metro's finish, and it's enough to give Super Comando an upset win. Again, either the clock in the arena is running fast or they clipped something out, because the match is shown as having run longer than the show's been on the air. It's only a few seconds, some rest cut out.

Winner: rudos (2-1)
Match Time: 12:36
Rating: ok
Notes: Monito is with the técnicos. Mr. Aguila may have changed his music again. Mije is with Psicosis. Entrances last longer than the last match. And the next match.

1: Pairs are Fantasma/Aguila, Warrior/Olímpico and Panther/Psicosis

Warrior bought new pajama pants. Warrior also randomly pulls out Sombra's suplex for two, but at a much higher speed. I dunno. Panther runs all over Psicosis until Aguila gets in a cheap kick. Warrior slide out on the rudos slides and rolls Aguila off the apron, and Fantasma adds his tope. Warrior flips Olímpico to the apron, wheel kicks him off, and follows with a tope con giro. Panther finishes Psicosis easily with an ankle lock, but has to be convinced to let go. Monito adds a totally unnecessary butt splash.

2: Técnicos continue in control, including a nice Warrior spear on Olímpico, and a Vega-maitc with Panther. Panther wants to do a section of quick pinfalls, which doesn't quit work with Tigre Hispano being slower than ever to get down to count. When panther gets to the Fujiwara, rudos hit the ring and attack. Aguila and Olímpico hold Panther for Psicosis to senton, though first Psicosis has to stomp Monito before climbing up.

Kraneo taunts Monito, then the rudos go after hi, but Fantasma keeps Monito out of trouble. Monito challenges Psicosis, who gets on his knees to fight him. Oh, he wants Kraneo. Kraneo challenges him to fight in the center of the ring – and Aguila comes out of nowhere to dropkick him! Aguila dropkicking a small monkey.

3: Even though they've been doing it for months, rudos and Fantasma have a slight bit of trouble with the swinging gate bomb. Aguila top rope legdrops Warrior. Rudos pound Warrior for a bit. Fantasma and Warrior are rammed into each other, then the rudos stomp and pounce down Panther some more. Fantasma is all the way up the ramp and not doing much to hide his next spot. Panther duck a double clothesline, Fantasma comes in with the Phantom lariat seconds later. Fantasma flips Panther out with a pescado onto Psicosis, who doesn't much catch it. Olímpico boost Fantasma in an Aguila heel kick but Warrior clothesline Olímpico out and breaks up Aguila's pin. Warrior DDT on Aguila, one, Aguila kicks out. Warrior half nelson cradle one two Olímpico makes the save. Olímpico inside cradle on Warrior one two NO. Olímpico backslide, one two Fantasma breaks it up with a kick to Olimpico's backside. Fantasma small package, one two no. Fantasma casadora cradle, Psicosis breaks that up with a dropkick. Psicosis spinning faceslam, Panther breaks it up. Panther chops Psicosis in the corner, corner whip, reversed, Panther kips up and out, Panther spinebuster Psicosis, kneebar, Fantasma top rope splash, Olímpico top rope splash, one two Aguila and Warrior break it up. Aguila misses a dropkick on Warrior and goes out, Warrior crushes him with his first tope in quite some time. Olímpico dropkick Fantasma out and tope con giros him. Panther and Psicosis left back in. Psicosis charges, misses, Panther charges, Psicosis boosts him up and pulls him out for the layout frontcracker, but Panther doesn't take it right and lands right on his head. That's the finish anyway.

Mije challenges Monito, who watches from outside the ring. Olímpico chases Monito around, and stomps him on the floor until Fantasma runs him off.

Match 3: Diamante Azul, La Máscara, Máscara Dorada © vs Negro Casas, Terrible, Último Guerrero ©
Arena Mexico, 04/06/2012

  1. rudos

  2. rudos

Winner: rudos (2-1)
Match Time: ? 
Rating: useless
Notes: Terrible taps Mascara Dorada smacks Dorada on the shoulder as he walks down the stairs. Rest of the rudos are rushing out behind him, because they're almost out of time already. Ref is Tigre Hispano.

1: Rudos knocks around the técnicos. Or eye poke them, if you're Negro and stuck with Diamante. UG comes over to help, and they manage a drop toe hold, elbow drop bit. Corner charges and senton de la muerte for Dorada. Mascara tries to chop fight Terrible and loses. Double suplex actually pins La Máscara, even though Negro is just holding him in place and not for three, because Tigre Hispano is not paying attention. Terrible still does the top rope splash. Rudos go to raise each other's arms and Tigre Hispano goes with it, because he's awful and doesn't remember Dorada was announced as captain a minute ago.

2: Rudos stay in control for about twenty seconds more, until the técnicos break up the flying sit and toss UG and Terrible in the ring. Dorada gets in the floating headscissors on Terrible, who zoom out so he can be taken out by Diamante's dive. Máscara gets the campana on Negro, UG breaks it up with a inside cradle for a pin, and Negro dropkicks Dorada in the knee and puts him in a casita.

Diamante Azul yells after the rudos, who just leave. Replays and done.
