Tons of filler on this show. Crowd looks really thin.
Match 1: Metálico ©, Sensei, Starman vs Demus 3:16, Hooligan, Nitro ©

Winner: técnicos (2-1)

Rating: OK.

1: Hooligan woke up today and decided his mask must have more tassels on it. Crowd chants for Demus, which seems to briefly confuses both him and Sensei. Demus/Sensei is the only pair that gets much time in the first cycle thru. Metálico and Demus end up together, Metálico flips Demus to the apron and then just kind of never gets back to him. Hooligan comes in to distract, and boots Metálico out. Demus just walks back to the rudo corner on the apron, but does get Metálico with a plancha from there. Meanwhile, Starman lands on Hooligan with a plancha, but his clothesline misses and Nitro get him with a cradle. Hooligan can't get Sensei to stay in the right position for Hooligan crash, and ends up with a modified STF thing instead. It was a quick fix, anyway, and nice job of pulling Sensei around by his mask.
2: Are they playing music in between falls? Beatdown. Demus gets in his middle rope swan dive. Nice double tapatía/dropkick combo. Rudos whip Sensei into the corner, then flip Demus before whipping him in – but that dives Sensei plenty of time to move out of the way. Starman gets Hooligan with a headscissors, Metálico charges Demus on the outside and get tossed to the apron, which is perfect to setup his Asai moonsault. Demus got crushed there. Starman takes out Hooligan with a tope. Sensei and Nitro, Sensei springboard heel kick, one two three.
3: Yep, music again, despite the fight already going on in the ring, complete with Demus going into beast mode on Metálico. Metálico fights back with easy headscissors and armdrags. Hooligan attempts to get into a kick fight with Sensei, which just gets him pumped kicked out of the ring without actually ever getting a kick in. It's never more apparent about how few people are here then when Sensei topes Nitro, and no one has to move out of the way, because there's no one in the first three rows in the closest section.
Match 2: Delta, Diamante, Valiente © vs Mephisto ©, Misterioso II, Sangre Azteca
Arena Coliseo, 12/05/2010
rudos
Winner: técnicos
Match Time: 14:45
Rating: OK enough around with a minimal attention on the angle
Notes: Refs are Bestia Negra & Pompin.
1: Valiente & Sangre Azteca engage in a long competitive mat battle, As if they might not be getting to do it again any time soon! Valiente eventually 'wins' with a headscissors of the mat. Delta/Mephisto are in shortly before, and Misterioso/Diamante are in very briefly after. Misterioso takes two armdrags, rolls out, is chased back in, and tags Sangre. Sangre is not ready to go back in, but does so. Diamante gets Sangre with a quebrada, then rolls him into a grounded crucifix for two. Sangre backs Diamante into his own corner and chops him hard once, which gets the attention of the crowd. Sangre whips Diamante back towards the rudos, and Misterioso oddly strips s him up and pulls hi out. Sangre knocks the técnicos down on the apron. Mephisto comes in, and they hit Delta with double elbows. Chop for him. Flapjack + kick too. Valiente is held for a kick to the thigh. Low blow missile dropkick on Diamante to finish him. Delta brought back in for Misterioso to finish with his move.
2: Beatdown goes wrong when the Poder Mexica duo accidentally clothesline Mephisto. Diamante sends Sangre out with an armdrag, Valiente gives Misterioso a quebrada and Delta dropkicks him out. Dives time – Valiente starts for a tope, runs back and forth a second time, kind of slows down but dives anyway, and them Misterioso tries to push Sangre out of the way of the dive. Sangre turns back to actually catch Valiente, but really no one gets much of him. I don't know what happened there. Back in the ring, Diamante drops Mephisto with a quebradora, and Delta lands a top rope moonsault (headbutt), to take care of him. Diamante gets Misterioso with a cradle for no obvious reason, and the técnicos intimidate Sangre into a corner.
3: Delta has an up and down showcase that ends on a down note. Mephisto playing knocked out after a Delta superkick is amusing and interesting. He's good at that. Diamante's showcase includes him leapfrogging over Sangre, leading Azteca into a Misterioso kick. Misterioso goes out himself with a spear to the post. Mephisto tries his luck, eats a springboard armdrag. All técnicos come, Double Ds go out with staggered tope con giros, and Valiente nails Misterioso with his tope. Mephisto and Diamante get back in first, and Mephisto responds to a corner kip up and escape by just kicking the rookie in the midsection and dropping him with Devil's Wings.
Valiente dropkicks Mephisto out, but Sangre scoops up the smaller man and drops him in the center of the ring. Sangre heads to the top rope (???), but gets tripped up when Misterioso bounces off the ropes (??) and Valiente covers. One two NO. Surprising a cover didn’t work there. Delta comes in, and he and Valiente immediately get the rudos with casadora cradles. That was ALL Misterioso’ fault.
Misterioso goes to help Sangre up after the match, but Sangre doesn't want his help. Replay of the incident. Replays, and that's it.
