Hijo del Fantasma vs Pólvora in a lightning match : not good. A match showcasing the usual limitation of the two. This was Pólvora as this most annoying.
Diamante, Fuego, Sangre Azteca vs Rey Escorpión, Shigeo Okumura, Yoshihashi : perfectly fine trios match, which was better than I was expecting to see given the sorts involved. The rudo trio looked especially smooth in their triple teams, though it could simply be I’m not used to seeing smooth triple teams under the new set up (even as they start to inch back closer to the old set up here.)
Dragón Rojo Jr., Mr. Niebla, Último Guerrero vs Atlantis, Jushin Lyger, Shocker : this was the lesser match. Técnico Lyger in CMLL tries to be entertaining, but is sadly slow in the ring. Niebla/Atlantis was a random insta-feud with not much going for it and nothing at stake. Everything else was just the usual bits.
