Angelito and Último Dragoncito vs Minos and Mercurio

Minos takes down Ultimo in something like an STF then Ultimo comes back with a hammerlock on him. Ultimo armdrags him then Minos does one back. Ultimo is on Minos' shoulders and armdrags him and the two do a stand off.

Mercurio and Angelito get in.Angelito does a big flip in and Merc teases it, but opts not to and laughs. Angelito handstands out of an armdrag attempt then Merc does a kung fu pose as he kips up. Ang then gets tripped by Minos and beat down. Ang takes a sandwich double forearm then is double gorilla press slammed. The rudos then pose.

Ultimo gets his leg split on the middle rope and Merc sure seems to kick him in the crotch, but the ref says it's the butt. Ultimo then gets codebreakered and double stomped. Ang comes in for a springboard dropkick but the rudos move then Merc twists his nipples.

Merc tries to spear Ang in the corner, but Ang moves and he goes out. Ang backflips into a spinning headscissors on Minos. Merc has a blast goofing around with the crowd and Ultimo tilt-a-whirl backbreakers him. Ang then gets popped up into a double dropkick and both tope con hilo the rudos. Minos does a seated hammerlock to Ultimo and taps him out then Ang takes a buckle bomb from Merc. Merc gets behind him as he is on his knees and stretches him for the rudos win.

This was around 10 minutes long and very good. Merc was a great rudo here with tons of personality and ended up carrying this one.

El Audaz, Dulce Gardenia and Esfinge vs Luciferno, Cancerbero and Virus

1st fall: Cancer and Dulce roll a little and Dulce is armdragged. Dulce tries gay stuff to Cancer and armbars him. Virus and Esfinge mat wrestle and butt heads. Audaz does a nice springboard otrnillo then headscissors Luciferno out. The Rudos put Audaz's arms under his leg and kind of flip him into a powerbomb. Audaz gets pinned then Dulce misses a springboard crossbody. Efinge takes running clotheslines from all 3 opponents then takes a nasty shoulderbreaker for the rudos win.

2nd fall: Esfinge hits a nice tornado kick on Luciferno then Audaz springboard headscissors an opponent. Dulce moonsaults Virus then Audaz headscissors Luciferno off the apron. Dulce messes up his submission (leg figure four + armbar) and wins it in a very quick fall.

3rd fall: Dulce does a bunch of gay stuff on Virus then runs up the ropes for a tonrillo. He then hits a butt bump and dances and tries to kiss Luciferno. Dulce walks up the ropes and armdrags Luciferno down. Audaz flips into the top rope and lands on the ramp then he headscissors Virus and takes lariat from Cancerbero. Audaz headscissors him and Luciferno. Esfinge 619's Cancerbero and as the rudos lay near each other, Audaz and Dulce hit springboard splashes on them. Esfinge does a nice tope con hilo and the techs roll up for the rudos for 2.

Dulce hits a corner butt bump on Luciferno then Audaz spears the post when a rudo moves. Esfinge takes a 3v1 with lariats and shoulders then is set up like a 619, only Virus jumps on his back. The techs hit double dives then Virus hits a ddt on Esfinge to win it.

This was pretty decent. The 2nd fall was a quick waste of time and I didn't like all the Dulce stuff, but it was fast paced and we got some nice flying. 

Volador Jr. vs Fugaz

They do the usual lucha reversals to start and then stand off. Fugaz gets a couple of pin attempts and Volador rolls out to take a breather. Fugaz walks up the ropes and armdrags him then hits a great tornillo. They both run the ropes and Volador headscissors him then tope con hilo's him. Back in and Fugaz hits a Toyota roll for 2. Volador superkicks him and backcrackers him.

Volador goes at him and ends up on the floor then Fugaz jumps off the inside second rope and hurricanrana's Volador on the floor. Volador running crossbodies and Fugaz backflips into a slam on him. Fugaz 619's him over the 2nd buckle and springboard splashes him for 2. Volador rolls into a sunset bomb for 2. Fugaz then hit a top rope moonsault onto the floor on him.

They trade step-up enzugiri's and Volador superkicks him, then is pop-up cuttered. He no sells it then they face kick each other at the same time. They go up top and Fugaz top rope hurricanrana's him for 2. They go up top again and Volador hits a top rope spanish fly for 2. They do a monkey flip and Fugaz hits him with a canadian destroyer out of it...for 2 of course. Volador then hits a canadian destroyer and wins it.

This was all flying here and I was liking it. However they just got lazy in the last few minutes with the no selling and the big move kickouts for no reason, bringing this one down.

Niebla Roja, Angel de Oro and Terrible vs Los Infernales (Mephisto, Euforia and Hechicero)

1st fall: Each side gets a hold in and it results in everyone coming in and arguing. Mephisto and Roja kick each other and Roja gets ripcord slammed on the rail. Mephisto then lariats him off it. Angel is bridged off the apron and Hechicero baseball slides him in the face. Terrible gets double hiptossed into a powerbomb for the rudos 1st fall victory.

2nd fall: The rudos 3v1 Roja and tilt-a-whirl backbreaker then ddt him. Roja gets bridged in the air and Mephisto dropkicks him from the 2nd rope. Terrible gets put against the 2nd rope and gets crossbodied, then takes a triple boot out. Roja gets 3v1'd and slappped by Mephisto.

The two teams exchange shoulders and Mephisto gets a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Roja rolls him into a laying pendulum submission and wins the fall.

3rd fall: Terrible and Euforia stare down then Terrible takes a 3v1. Terrible headscissors Mephisto out and poses. Angel and Hechi trade chops then the techs corner clothelines and triple dropkick Mephisto. Euforia then gets double suplexed on Mephisto for 2.

Roja spinning headscissors Mephisto then does the same to the other rudos. Angel tope con hilos Euforia then Euforia hits a very dangerous looking tope con hilo on Terrible. Oro hits a triangle moonsault on the inside to Mephisto then Hechi rolls him backwards into an arm and leg lock.

Hechi slingshots in on Roja into a wild arm and leg submission and submits him. Terrible and Hechi trade chest chops and Euforia top rope plancha's Terrible. Roja takes a double underhook piledriver for the rudos match win.

The rudos won this with first and third fall victories. I thought this was pretty good. Not great and not as many highlights as the other matches but I didn't have many issues with it.

Overall thoughts: I liked almost all 4 matches as the Volador/Fugaz match had some issues near the end. I thought it was a good show with a lot of flying and some fast paced matches.
