1st Fall - Shocker's team is jumped before the bell. Shocker takes a hard lariat from Kahoz and Muerte hits a nice punch on Olimpico. Muerte bangs Trueno's head into the ropes and Shocker takes a 2v1 with Kahoz kicking him. Muerte comes in to help and pulls at Shocker's mask.

Ciclon tires to roll up him but is ligerbombed. Ciclon is then single leg crabbed and armbarred at the same time and the rudos win the fall. Felino kicks Ciclon out of the ring after.

The first fall was some of the best llave chain wrestling I've ever seen. It was just so fluid and they pieced all this great stuff together. When people tell you that lucha is about flips and spots, show them that. It was beautiful stuff. I think UD got stretched out between the 2nd and 3rd falls as he was nowhere to be seen for the end of this after hitting his dive. Felino even seemed a little out of it as well. The second and third falls weren't as must see as the first, but it was still very good lucha. I highly recommend seeing this one.

The finish was out of nowhere here. The rudos did a good job of beating up on the faces and Negro and Doc were good here.

Overall thoughts: The mini's match was very good and had some of the best technical wrestling ever. The opener wasn't that good and the main was okay but could have been a lot better.
