Thoughts: They had a sloppy match here. These girls can do some agile stuff just not all the time and tonight was one of those nights. Some of the more complicated stuff they tried got botched and the pin at the end was botched as well. There's an alternate universe where everything goes well and this ends up being better, but this wasn't it.

Thoughts: It went longer than it needed to. Both guys are kind of limited by their size and there wasn't as much focus on face/heel stuff as much as the flying. So while it was a bit athletic, the structure wasn't quite there. It would have been an okay 7 minute match but it went a lot longer and got boring. They also basically started doing similar spots as it went on.

Thoughts: There was a lot of people in this and it was hard to follow. There wasn't that much wrestling in it and it was mostly people just trying to escape. It didn't go on too long and it was tolerable but nothing too great. If you have seen one of these, you've really seen them all. I will say the mini's did do some nice escapes here though. I really don't understand why any luchador would really want to unmask unless they don't like being masked or are at the end of their careers. I think it hurts your marketability some and then everyone knows who you are and bugs you more. I'm sure the financial aspect is an enticement, but I'd think people are worth more with their mask than without it.
Overall thoughts: It was a good show overall. The main just was what it was and had some limitations due to the format and the amount of people involved. I liked matches 3 and 4. The women's match could have been good but there were too many botches and the Tengu/KeMonito match went on too long. I'd give this one a 6 out of 10 overall. It wasn't an all-time classic but I think it was an enjoyable enough show with an unmasking.
