Whip, evasions, armdrag, armdrag, dropkick misses, Terrible lands the dropkick. Texano in to help pound him. Shocker in, but cut of by the ref. Rudo back off so Garza can take of his shirt, and then go back to hitting him. Whip, clothesline missed, Garza tossed into a – Bucanero gut shot? Maybe lower? Rudos wait a beat, then rush the técnicos, but Bestia Negra is calling the fall.
Rudos keep beating up the técnicos, including Terrible sliding Monito into the post. Bucanero drops Monito on Shocker. Replays make it like a lot more like a low blow than I thought initially.
