Match 2: Ángel de Oro, Super Porky ©, Valiente vs Averno ©, Mr. Águila, Olímpico
Arena Mexico, 03/02/2012
rudos
Averno super Devil's Wings Angel de Oro (4:51)
Aguila running shooting star press Valiente (4:54)
rudos
Olímpico springboard splash Super Porky (3:34)
Winner: rudos (2-0)
Match Time: 8:28
Rating: eh
Notes: Monito is with the técnicos, Mije with the rudos. Super Porky is falling off the apron or something as they show the lineups. Referees are Bestia Negra AND Pompin.
1: Valiente & Olímpico get a couple minutes, don't go anywhere. Angel and Aguila duel over flipping runs. Aguila flips Angel to the apron, Angel kicks him away to set up the outside in moonsault. Headscissors ends their portion. Porky tries to do his Averno impression. He's not that cool. The surprise in the Porky sequence is Averno can actually knock him down on a shoulderblock. Aguila kicks Porky out after he's taken care of the other two, everyone ends up in, Valiente puts Averno up top and tosses Angel there, Averno jabs Angel de Oro and takes him out while the camera misses Aguila's finish. I could tell it was the ugly SSP just from what I saw. Mije celebrates.
2: Rudos hold the ring. And outside the ring, too, as they drag Valiente there. Angel de Oro held on the apron for an Olímpico dropkick. I wonder how long it is until they start realizing they can throw people into those barricades. Rudos send Porky out, pose and Oro gets Averno with a headscissors. Something between Oro and the other rudos goes wrong, and Aguila takes an odd bump off a gentle shove. Averno puts a stop to everything by grabbing Valiente, but that goes poorly for the rudos. A lot of people running around and running into each other until the rudos all are down in the corner for Porky's sit. Porky takes longer than usual reload, but it's a plan - everyone flees, Porky reverses the whip, and Valiente does the Valiente Special onto Averno. Aguila follows with a slingshot tornillo, Angel de Oro does his corner moonsault – but gets Valiente! Porky sits gentely on Olímpico, but Averno is back to break that up. Double suplex, Olímpico springboard (gentle) splash two three.

Terrible and Rush give each other looks, then go face to face as the técnicos recover on the outside.
2: Rudos continue to stomp down the técnicos to boos. Rush very distracted by the crowd. Announcers debate if Rush is a técnico. Terrible unties Atlantis' mask. Rush tosses Zacarias in.

Niebla moonsault! Atlantida on Rush! Rush gives up quick. They don't stick with showing the countout, but Tirantes does make the count.
3: Rush and Terrible get into a shoving match. That's never a good sign. They go head to head before they back down. Rush is distracted by the crowd booing again. He seems sad. Niebla and Rush run, clothesline, no one goes down. Rush yells at Niebla, Niebla goes to pose, fans cheer. Niebla tells Rush to try. You know how that goes. Niebla again. Rush just shoves him. Niebla trap him in the corner chop, but Rush turns it around for his own chop. Niebla ducks the next one and chops Rush again whip – no, Rush ahs the ropes and is waving his finger no. Niebla chops him once more, but Rush still won't go. They get into a huge slap to face battle, Niebla winning by spitting right in Rush's face. Off the ropes, clothesline, Rush is out. Terrible chop, Niebla just does the Niebla dance. Terrible keeps trying, Niebla shrugs it off, then just shrugs away as Terrible goes slap happy. Niebla slaps Terrible in the face and poses.
