Other Match Notes: Negro Casas is so happy to be here, he dances halfway to the ring.
1: Joined with Panther and Atlantis fighting on the ground. Atlantis manges to armdrags Panther way, but they go right back at it. Takedown, twisting the knee. Atlantis is close enough to his corner to high five Felino, which is apparently not a tag. It is enough of a distraction for Panther to get himself free and move towards a double armbar, but Atlantis gets free to his own armbar as they both get up. Panther full nelson, Atlantis takedown, back on the mat. Panther pushed off his feet to goes back and forth and try to get the handstand escape – he's got the headstand, but not so much the escape. Finally, Panther gets turned around and freed. Lots of quick counters, ending with Panther landing on his feet from a monkey flip. Nice sequence, gets cheers from the crowd. Tags. Negro Casas calls in Marco, and Negro mocks his slow crossing over the ropes in his own. Way. So Marco does it again. Bicep pose. Negro kisses it. Hip swivel gets Marco punched and kicked in the thigh may times. Marco gets him down to one knee so he can do his own hip swivel, and puts on a wristlock. With both arms. Marco wins that with one arm. Felino comes in to kick Marco, and they each force Marco down with an arm. Of course, Marco can beat both of them with one arm each. Casas brothers punch him in the midsection, whip, double shoulderblock, , rudos are the ones who go down. Corleone roars, which scares the rest away. Double clothesline for the rudos, Marco calls Atlantis in, and Atlantis frantically calls for a timeout. No luck, he's in, sunset flip, Corleone blocks it the usual way. Casas grabs him in the midsection and forces him towards the corner. Corner whip, reversed, Corleone charge into a boo, Casas jump at him, Marco catches him, drops him, clothesline mises, stone punch does not. Negro gets out of the ring, Atlantis gets out of there, Marco poses. Panther and Dorada raise Marco's arms. Dorada in, so Felino is. Headlock, shot off, waved by, and Dorada springboard armdrag. Springboard plancha, and they're moving fast – Felino cuts Dorada with a clothesline, then crawls around. Felino clothesline misses, Dorada headscissors sends him out. Dorada waiting – tope con giro gets just enough of Felino. Tecnicos and rudos rush the ring, and the rudos win it – Negro dropkicks Marco out as he comes in (and taunts him) while Panther rushes right into the Atlantida. That's the fall.
2: Rudos have Panther down in the ring and are stretching him, while making sure the referees don't let any one else in. Panther's tossed out of the ring, which allows Marco to come in. Marco wants Negro, who runs for his life outside the ring. They chase, Negro gets cut off by Dorada, but Felino gets him with a flying axhandle. Those darn beeps are back. Felino slams Dorada on the outside. Negro bites Marco's boots. Rudos bring Marco back in and corner whip him, which starts the Marco comeback – kip up escape of the double clothesline, stone punch for Negro, leapfrogging everyone and a big plancha on everyone. Panther comes in to help cover, and Dorada poses on top – one two three. That was quick. Felino and Negro try to beat up Dorada after the fall and fail.
3: Fight spills right over into the next fall. Atlantis has Panther down in an armbar, but Dorada breaks that up and puts on a standing double armbar. Felino breaks that up with a kick of his own. Slam, going up, flying elbow drop connects. Felino covers and leans way back, almost far enough to pin himself. Doesn't matter, Marco stomps the pin up. Atlantis waves Felino out while Marco stops to pose. Crowd loud behind Marco. Atlantis rams him in the midsection, flipping him over on the next pass. Jumping knees doesn't work so well, Marco punches – Atlantis starts to duck and never gets to finish. Negro checks to see if Atlantis is alive. Just barely. Another stone punch, and out goes Atlantis. Negro and Felino rush Marco and knock him out, then evade dropkicks by others. Rudo bulldogs are shoved off into each other, and Dorada boosted into a dropkick on both. Negro pulls out Blue panther to join him, but Panther rams him into the post. Meanwhile, Dorada runs up the ropes and off with a big plancha on Felino. Marco in, Atlantis upset – so upset he headbutts the buckle. Clothesline misses, Marco's springboard clothesline does not, one two three.
Atlantis bolts to the back immediately after the pin – injury? Tecnicos celebrate and Negro finds children to hang out with. That's it.
