Arena Mexico, 04/21/2013
Winner: Valiente
Match Time: 7:44 (officially 7:41)
Rating: good
Notes: Referee is Edgar.
Mat wrestling battle to start, with Pólvora briefly trapping Valiente in la de a caballo, Valiente powering his way out, Valiente getting an armbar and Pólvora kicking him away. They go back at it again, and Pólvora ends the sequence by hiptossing Pólvora away. Valiente switches it up, runs and flips off the ropes, and sends Pólvora across the ring with a headscissors. Monkey flip, second monkey flip blocked, Pólvora drops Valiente on the mat and dropkicks him out. Pólvora out to the apron, screaming, and landing a bowling ball tope con giro. Replay of that. Back live, Pólvora throws Valiente into the barricade. Chops and back in. Pólvora corner whip, corner clothesline, bulldog out, but only a two count. Pólvora slaps Valiente into the corner, charges in, Valiente flips Pólvora to the apron and corner springboards into a super armdrag to the floor! That was impressive, and almost took out a photographer. Replay of that, then back just in time to catch a Valiente tope into Pólvora. Replay of that as well. Valiente in and fired up. Pólvora tries to get back in, and Valiente repeatedly kicks him in the face. Valiente backs up – supersonic tope! Pólvora got crushed by that one. Valiente slaps Pólvora and throws him back in. Pólvora staggered, then watching Valiente climb up – counter dropkick one two NO. Pólvora a bit frustrated. Pólvora takes the scenic route around to grabbing Valiente, but lifts him up over his shoulders and drops him with the Pólvora Driver. One two NO. Pólvora makes handsignals and look at the fans. Valiente back up. Whip, reversed, Pólvora drops him with a quebradora, and Valiente goes for his mask! Pólvora manages an up kick to knock him away and yells for the rudos. Both up. Chest slap fight. Valiente off the ropes, Pólvora scoops him up in martinete position, Edgar tries to break it up, but just causes Valiente to reverse the position, and Valiente turns it into the Valiente Buster! One two three.
JCC interviews the loser Pólvora, who refuses to give Valiente a title shot – Valiente just got in a lucky show!

Match 2: Hijo del Fantasma, Rush, Shocker © vs Dragón Rojo Jr., Ephesto, Mephisto ©
Arena Mexico, 04/21/2013
Winner: técnicos (2-1)
Match Time: 13:48
Rating: ok
Notes: Referee is Pompin.
1: Mephisto and Rush have a good short mat section to start and end up shoving each other. Fantasma armdrags Ephesto into retreating quickly. Shocker and Rojo chop each other, Shocker blocks a clothesline with a hiptoss, Rojo out, Fantasma out after him with a tope. Other rudos immediately beat other técnicos out of nowhere.
2: Rudos work over Shocker. Dragon Rojo shows off some bad kicks, and a light double boot sends him out. Rush attacks everyone, everyone attacks Rush. Fantamsa's kicked around. Shocker is blatantly fouled by Dragon Rojo but the rudo gets away with it. Rudos hold Shocker in the corner for a corner whip for a long time, and that fails the same way it always does. Rush and Shocker kick people around, Mephisto kills some time until Fantasma comes back with the Phantom Lariat for the win.
3: Tecnico showcases go Fantasma, Rush, Shocker. Dragon Rojo slides out against Shocker right away for whatever reason. Dragon Rojo breaks up Shocker's Dos Caras clutch and knocks him down in the corner for his low blow dropkick. Rush northern lights suplexes Dragon Rojo. Mephisto just kicks Rush and covers him, and Fantasma breaks that up with his own head kick. Fantasma slides out on Ephesto, and then thing that usually happens happens there. In a mirror of the first fall, the técnicos immediately beat the rudos. Rush even sits down on Mephisto after his senton.
Fantasma and Shocker strut after the match, Rush having long walked off. They do the post match interview, where Fantasma still wants Mephisto's mask and Shocker says Shocker things.
Main event rudos talk about their match – though Niebla Roja is cut out.

Match Time: 11:49
Rating: ok
Notes: Zacarias is with Negro Casas. Referee is Tigre Hispano.
1: Pairs are Atlantis/Niebla Roja, Blue Panther/Volador and Negro Casas/Mistico when Volador refuses to face Místico. Volador attacks Místico form behind at fer his first armdrag, of course. Rudos clear the ring quick, and Mistico's treated to a giant swing dropkick. JCR brings up Niebla Roja taking the Dragon Lee mask in his last match, CHECK. Rudos beat up the técnicos quickly, and Volador submits Atlantis to finish him. They're not quite on t the same page about Panther, setting up a corner whip spot, then Negro pulling Panther out for an armbar, then Negro just holding him for a Niebla Roja dropkick to the face.

2: Volador rips up Mistico's mask. The rudos take turns taking shots at Místico, and press him into Niebla Roja's kick. Rudos stretch Atlantis around the bottom rope, but Atlantis also avoids a corner whip to start the comeback. Everyone hits everyone leads to a Místico top rope headscissors and a tope con giro to the floor. Tecnicos immediately beat the rudos.

3: Volador goes after Mistico's mask and slides out when Místico looks to be turning it around. Blue Panther/Negro Casas sequence includes Negro kicks, a big Panther DDT, and a Panther tapatía. Niebla Roja breaks that hold up and kicks Panther out. Atlantis monkey flips Niebla Roja and gives him the quebradora. Negro in with chops and kicks, but he takes the quebradora too. Volador in, so Atlantis tags Místico back in. Edit here. Místico flipping run and a headscissors to send Volador out. Místico to the middle rope, and diving headscissors on Volador to the floor. Replay of that. That covers up some action. Atlantis and Niebla Roja come in briefly, then Panther and Negro have a scrum leading to them both tumbling thru the ropes and out. Back to Volador and Místico. Místico tossed up to a huracanrana, two count, Místico casadora cradle, no count, La Mistica looks slow and Volador escapes, then points to the crowd. Tigre Hispano looks, Volador pulls off Mistico's mask and small packages him. Tigre Hispano turns around and counts three.
Replays, Místico demands a match with Volador, and that's the show.
