Diamante Azul, La Máscara, Thunder vs Dragón Rojo Jr., Mr. Niebla, Pólvora: Rote trios match with the rudos doing their best to make the técnicos look good, and not quite being the right combination of rudos to accomplish this. The bigger técnicos are limited to only being small routines, and Mascara chooses to do the same, so this turned into every match you’ve seen with them by the long third fall.
Shocker, Rush, Máximo, Blue Panther, Super Porky, Negro Casas, Averno, Mr. Águila, Rey Escorpión, Rey Bucanero in a cibernetico match: Really good cibernetico to build up the issues. They did seem to lose the crowd near the end; it might have been a mistake to let Negro Casas get that close to the end and eliminate him before the finish, because the crowd was too into him versus Rush to get over it. That feud actually seemed to take a step back to Shocker vs Rush, which was much more obviously a planned issue this week than the impromptu thing it had appeared in the last few weeks. Averno and Panther also came off strong, and the match was even just a good match regardless of what it was building towards. Rush beat the last three was responsible for a fourth losing as well; it’s his world, the other nine guys are just living in it.
