Thoughts: I didn't care for this. CMLL 2v2 tag team matches are basically tornado tags and they often end up as free-for-all's without much structure. That's what this was. There was no real rhythm or flow here and I found it hard to get into.

Thoughts: This was really ugly. The two just didn't click or know what the other was doing for most of this. They had to just muscle each other over for various moves and CC looked like he had just finished running a marathon by the end of this. I've been watching CC for over 20 years at this point and this was easily one of his worst bouts. It's a shame too because I like both of these guys usually.

Thoughts: I didn't like this one. 3-way's are always tough because you have 3 people switching out, making it impossible to get any flow going. They tried but it went longer than it needed to and there was a ton of time between every big spot.

Barb is given the Leyenda de Azul trophy and title after. Barb shakes hands with Sob and Mist. Mist raises Barb's hand. 

Overall thoughts: The top and the bottom halves of this show were two different cards. The bottom half had the usual CMLL style. The top half was more Americanized and didn't work out as well. I liked the opener.  Fury Boy was incredible in the second match and made that one a must see. Olympia/Jarochita was average. The fourth match was a strong trios match with a fast pace and some nice flying. The tag title match was the usual CMLL tornado style tag and was disjointed. Claudio/Gran was ugly and one of CC's worst matches. The main had the usual issues 3-way's have and had a lot of downtime between spots. I thought the main was so-so. I'd give this a slight 6 out of 10 as they really did put out a big card here but the upper card just couldn't live up to the high standards the lower card set. I would check out the Fury Boy tag and the Yutani tag and not much else.
