03/03: SLP
03/17: Monterrey for Rey de Reyes
Let's put the Roldan family meeting here. This is part 1, though it goes to less than 2 days. Marisela is running things. Joaquin makes his case why Dorian should be fired, but Marisela says she's in charge, that's her call. That's about as far as they get.
Match 1: Fabi Apache, La Jarochita, Lolita vs Jennifer Blake, Mari Apache, Taya Valkyrie
Palenque de la Feria, Pachuca, Hidalgo, 02/03/2013
Winner: técnicas
Match Time: 9:06
Rating: good
Notes: Jennifer Blake still can't get he name spelled right. Mari has her mixed title, Jarochita has her QPPLC title. Tirantes is referee, as always.
Taya and Faby start off for equal exchanges, though Faby is much faster. Taya gets up gasping for air, and Faby kicks here in the butt. Clip. Jennifer whips Jarochita to the corner, and she comes off with a run up the corner armdrag. That's all we see from them, which isn't a fantastic sign, but better than nothing. Jarochita dances and tags out. Mari asks for a handshake from Lolita, Lolita thinks no, off the ropes, into a big Mary kick. Mary's got red highlights. Not orange ones, yet. Lolita stumbles running up the buckles but recovers and rope flip armdrags Mary away. Headscissors sends Mary out., and Lolita rolls into her dance move. Jarochita and Taya in, but it's a distraction so Jennifer can kick her from behind. Corner stomp down Jarochita and Mary clears of the others. Corner clotheslines for Jarochita. Rudos throw the técnicas around and kick them. All sorts of kicks to the head and back for Lolita. Double boot for Faby, and a Marry top rope senton con giro. Announcers mention Sexy Star has given up the Reina de Reinas title, and speculate it has something to do with the Dorian/Konnan firings because Dorian announced it. Rudas try a spot where Jennifer and Mary hold Jarochita up for a double suplex, and Taya dropkicks her over, but first Taya loses her footing climbing the ropes, and then she can't dropkick high enough and they all fall down in a pile. Not sure that can work with this group. Corner charges for Lolita. Faby whipped into the corner, Jennifer and Taya run in at the same time (??) and Fabi kicks them both away. Tecnicas revenge. Faby kicks people in the backside a lot, then teases her usual beating of Hijo del Tirantes. Everyone heads back to their corners, but the rudas jump Faby quickly. Double clothesline misses, Fabi kicks Jennifer off the apron, Mary swings, Faby ducks, Taya gets hit. Mary kicks Fabi in the face to stop her, but Faby turns a corner whip into a headscissors (seemed off, but they shot it so we couldn't see it anyway.) Tirantes cuts Faby off from a dive, and Faby argues with him. Lolita in, Jennifer and Taya double team her, and this time land their double team corner elbow smash. I'm sorry for doubting them! Double bulldog out doesn't go as well, but it's hidden by the camera (and seems to be Lolita's fault.) Rudas celebrate, and Faby dropkicks and kicks both. Double kick, double DDT for Jennifer by the técnicas. Mari rushes in and clothesline them both, Jarochita missile dropkicks her. Taya kicks Jarochita, nice northern lights suplex, one tow NO. Taya and Faby in, Faby reverse roll up with bridge one two NO. Taya is kind of taking a break in the corner, not sure why. Meanwhile, Faby runs into a Jennifer swinging slam,. One two NO. Jennifer gave up on too soon there, but then argues with Tirantes that it was three. Faby pulls her back for Devil's Wings, Taya rushes over to break it up, but kicks Jennifer instead. Fabi dropkick Taya out, Jennifer swings and misses, Faby kicks her, right back to the Devil's Wings, and we're done here.
Taya and Jennifer ague about that last kick. Not really sure they had a lot to argue about – Jennifer was about to lose and ended up losing to the same move moments later. Perhaps there are other issues here. They shove back and forth, and Jennifer punches Taya down. Stomps. Mary rushes in attacks Jennifer – sit down powerbomb. Taya adds her annoying split legdrop, and the técnicas return to run the rudas off. The técnicas raise their own hands in celebration. Jennifer tries to include herself, but it doesn’t look like the técnicas are sold on the idea. Jennifer walks off by herself while the rudas argue.
Recap of the firing angle - #3 if you include the Roldan meeting.

Match 2: Cibernético, El Mesías, La Parka vs Chessman, Parka Negra, Texano
Palenque de la Feria, Pachuca, Hidalgo, 02/03/2013
Winner: rudos
Match Time: 14:20
Rating: okay
Notes: Piero is ref. Shot of a girl laughing in Parka Negra's face is funny, probably not the shot you want. Texano wears his belt, and has a nice Consejo jacket. Mesías does a big standoff with Texano.
Rudos jump the técnicos at the whistle for the obligatory whistle. Mesías and Negra team up for a double boot on Mesías. Cibernético is thrown out, Parka is thrown into Mesías than held up for Negra shots. Crowd is loud for Parka. Everyone stomps Parka, with Mesías and Cibernético deciding the best way to stop it is to lay on top instead of attacking the rudos. This does not really work. Double clothesline for Cibernético. Rudos are in no real hurry, and hold Cibernético and Mesías in separate corner. They're whipped to the same corner, Mesías stops short, punch for Texano, kick for Chessman, Cibernético out with a double clothesline. Negra swings at Parka, misses, and bails. Mesías punches Texano in the head a few times. Rudos roll out, técnicos celebrate, rudos huddle, Parka annoys them. Just about usual. Parka wants parka Negra, but Cibernético wants parka to back off for whatever reason. A lot of discussing about who should face who ensues. Loud Ciber chant. They finally end up with Parka Negra and cibernetico. Negra gets in a punch, they take turns tripping each other, Parka Negra clotheslines Cibernético with the wrong arm. Maybe that was a punch. That was peculiar. Whip, Parka Negra puts his head and gets it kicked. Announcers have been promoting the 03/03 show hard during this one. Cibernético clotheslines Negra out, Texano dropkick Cibernético in turn. Pose. Corner whip, Texano charges in, and Cibernético throws Texano down by he his head. Cibernético kicks Texano in his face. Chessman charges in, dropkick misses, Chessman misses twice, Cibernético spears him the third time. Parka in, but no on to face him, least of all Parka Negra. Crowd loud for Parka. Parka leads Texano around the ring in teased handshakes, then kicks Parka away. Crowd is really loud here. Corner whip, Parka dodges Texano repeatedly, and leads him into a Chessman clothesline, Chessman keeps hitting Texano by accident until Parka hitposses him and reverses a sunset flip into a Parka Negra kick. Same thing with Texano, which also leaves Parka Negra as the last guy left with Parka. Negra grabs Parka, but he takes a double chop from the other guys. Parka ducks one more double chop and Chessman lifts him into a headscissors on Texano. One more Texano, and they're out. Parka punches Negra and dances about. For as angry as he was, he gets out it three punches. Mesías makes sure he gets chant too before he starts. Clothesline for Chessman, shot for – well, no one's on the apron, so that's not going to work. Mesías corner charge, Chessman kicks him away, Chessman dropkicks Mesías away. Corner whip, Chessman runs into a punch, and Mesías takes him out with his middle rope headscissors. Negro in and dropkicking Mesías from behind. Para of Negra's skirt fall off, and Negra uses it to whip Mesías. Stomps to the back of the head. Off the ropes, into a powerslam. One two Texano goes into break it up, but Mesías is up to face him and puts his finer in Texano's face. Punch fight, Texano off the ropes and right into a big shot. Texano fights back with a jumping enziguri. Corner whip, reversed, Mesías tackles Texano. Mesías set up for a powerbomb, poses, and running powerbombs Mesías. Chessman breaks it up, but takes a flip to the floor and Mesías follows with a tope. Almost looks like he wanted to a tope con giro, then realized he didn't have nearly the room. Texano takes a look at and readies for a dive, but turns around to see Cibernético there. Chop fight. Texano off the ropes, into the choke, chokeslam. Parka Negra in and belting Cibernético with a chair. Parka in, sunset flip, Parka Negra tries roll out and back over for a bridging cradle but blows it, Parka just holds on for a two count. Corner whip, reversed, Negra charges in to a Parka punch, then a kick, then Negra just picks up the chair and throw sit at Parka. (Piero at least tried to be distracted that time, he was off screen on the first shot but didn't appear to be looking the other way.) Parka Negra clothesline, Negra crucifix cradle, one two three. Rudos celebrate.

Match Time: 9:31
Rating: good
Notes: Mini Vipers enter as a group. Psicosis has his belt. Piero is ref. Octagoncito gets last entrances.
Sagrada starts fast, avoiding a Psicosis dropkick, and coming off the ropes with a casadora armdrag. Springboard plancha knocks down the champ. Over the back armdrag sends Psicosis out, but the other rudos kick Sagrada down. Other rudos in, but punched as they come in, and the rudos take the ring. Abismo quebradora for Octagoncito. Side backbreaker/flying legdrop for Dinastía. Abismo is having the rudos bring the técnicos to him – that back fires, when Sagrada gets in faceslam. Tecnicos clear out the Vipers with kicks, Psicosis taking an quebradora. Everyone regroups. Dinastía and Histeria in to start their usual sequence, but Histeria faceslams Dinastía when he tries for his helicopter headscissors, then evades a superkick and kicks Dinastía down Histeria flips Dinastía to the apron, Dinastía goes up and comes off with a big headscissors. Histeria goes out, Dinastía flips all around to celebrate. Octagoncito armdrags Psicosis out, and headscissors Octagoncito out. Abismo dropkick Octagoncito down and struts to celebrate.

Rey de Reyes promo.
Back, with two new people in. Sagrada faceslams Histeria, then toritos him on the next pass for a two count. Histeria just keeps a headscissors together and goes out on it. Abismo superkicks Sagrada back, then eh and Octagón counter each other into a faceslam. Octagon clotheslines Mini Abismo out. Dinastía front flips for no real reason, then moves out of the way of a Psicosis dropkick. Dinastía does multiple rolls out of a corner charge, then a back bend into a casadora armdrag to send Psicosis out. Dinastía pescados him on the way out. Octagon back in, Histeria on the way out with a headscissors. Octagoncito to the ropes – rope flip moonsault works given the room – his tornillo would’ve had some problems. Abismo and Sagrada in, headscissors into a satellite armbar. Abismo escapes in times, and Sagrado looks unsure of what to do next. He pulls of a flipping armdrag into a headscissors, that'll work. Sagrado springboard plancha to the outside, but Abismo catches him and throws Sagrado into the barricade. Dinastía back in, Abismo waiting near the ropes – then turning around into Dinastía's plancha. Dinastía with forearms. Whip, reversed, head down too soon, Dinastía kicks it, off the ropes, Abismo stills staggered, Dinastía yells at him, off the ropes again, into an Abismo German suplex. Dinastía landed hard on that one. Abismo is happy with how things are going now. Cut the throat, powerbomb, no Dinastía ''rana one NO. That wasn't he soothest one. Dinastía with side kicks, Abismo takes them and knocks Dinastía over with one of his own. Abismo charges, and Dinastía monkey flips him to the floor. Abismo could've twisted his knee on that landing, was not pretty. Dinastía goes for a springboard, but Psicosis knocks him off the ropes into the ring, slams him, goes up and gets topped by a Dinastía kick. Dinastía on the way up, Spanish Fly, one two three.
Dinastía says he's beat Mini Psicosis twice, and wants a title match. Announcers talk all over Dinastia's promo, but Dinastía does get the crowd to go with him. Nicho Psicosis attacks Dinastía from behind before he gets his answer. Press slam onto Nicho's boots for Octagoncito. Sagrada waits to come back in, and is kicked down when he does. Nicho inverted powerslam on Dinastía. Staple gun and used, Mini Psicosis holding Dinastía down for them. Dinastía shakes in pain on the mat. Drago in, kicks for Nicho, and a flipping neckbreaker for him. Mini Psicosis charges and takes a head kick. Mini Abismo and Mini Histeria beg off, so Drago's left to give Mini Psicosis a swinging neckbreaker. Rudos clear out, Histeria jumping the rail for a moment to get away. Drago yells at Nicho for attacking Dinastía, and says he'll be the next minis champion.
Replays, and that's the show.
