AAA TV (SUN) 11/30/2014 Explanada del Parque Bicentenario, Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas [AAA]
1) Mini Drago, Octagoncito, Pasion Kristal b Mamba, Mini Murder Clown, Mini Murder Clown
Drago beat Mini Psycho Clown.
2) Australian Suicide & Ivelisse Vélez DQ Dark Cuervo & Sexy Star
Pentagon Jr., a one man immigration task force, ran in to attack Suicide and try to get to Ivelisse for the DQ. This led to a mixed tag title challenge.
3) Aerostar b Súper Fly
Mask ripping chair brawl, with Aerostar winning via top rope frankensteiner.
4) Angélico & Jack Evans b Hijo del Fantasma & Zorro
Jack 630 senton on Zorro.
5) Blue Demon Jr., El Elegido, El Mesías b Averno, Chessman, Cibernético
Demon beat Averno to get revenge for Cibernetico attacking him way back when.
6) Joe Lider & Pentagón Jr. b Fénix & Myzteziz
Lots of Lider style weapons. Pentagon beat Fenix with a Destroyer. Pentagon and Lider declared they’d win the tag titles at Guerra de Titanes. Angelico and Jack ran them off, then had an uneasy moment with Fenix and Myzteziz.
Air Date: 12/20 and 12/27
AAA notes over 10,000 people turned out for the show. The last show here was similar well attended, free and I’m assuming this one was as well, but I’m not 100% sure. There was a locals dark match prior to the show.
Now that we know PPV happening, this is one of those weird tapings which builds up match we’ll already have seen by this point (though not for the people who are only following this promotion on TV.) It’s a lot of place keeping with some interesting results. Hell Brothers lose again which makes it seem like they’ll surely starting winning at Guerra de Titanes, but Aerostar also won and I’d still be shocked if he lost the mask match. The Angelico & Jack Evans appearances feel like a correction to them being brushed aside in this build previously (plus we found out Zorro is a rudo this week), but it’s still hard to see them winning next Sunday.
The mixed tag team feud is new, logical and a good sign of AAA having an idea of how they wanted to use someone new right away. They go back to women’s tag match (Faby/Ivelisse vs Taya/Sexy) at Guerra de Titanes but maybe the tag title match comes some time later.
Not sure when though; the audio preview Oscar and Enrique did prior to last night’s taping called this show the pentultimate of the 2014. That’d mean AAA is done after Guerra de Titanes. They’ll have enough shows taped to last thru 01/10, and they can make it to February if the three best of shows are worked in there.
Next taping is Sunday for Guerra de Titanes.

Question, how many shows per month does AAA have?
@Chismo: Depends. They have 1 TV show a week, but they can run anywhere between 1 and 5 TV tapings a month.
And, technically, they’re only promoting the big shows of the year – the other tapings are run by local promoters (with AAA handling the TV and in-ring product.)
Sorry, I should’ve clarified, how many not-TV shows they hold? You know, house shows? Because I see WON reports something that resmbles house show figures sometimes, i.e. there was an AAA house show few weeks ago that drew 8,000 people.
@Chismo: Between 6-10 a week, but the vast majority of them are smaller shows. The really high crowds get noted because they’re exceptions (usually by a fair bit.)
Like the TV tapings, AAA is generally getting paid a fee for the wrestlers they’re sending. The gate doesn’t matter as much to them in the moment, but lots of gates would allow them charge more.
Thanks a lot, I knew they had to do tons of shows since they’re a touring fed, it’s just impossible to find the results. Then again, I don’t even look much, so what do I know.
