It went about even with both girls getting about the same amount of offense in. It was much better than what we ususally get from the women and it was not sloppy.

Thoughts: Oro winning was a bit of an upset here and the crowd was happy about it. It was a slower paced match. What we got was alright but it wasn't anything great. There wasn't any great logic or story here. JC was in control for a lot of this but Oro pulled it out in the end. I honestly didn't want to see JC lose his hair as it's part of his look and I don't know if his look works without it. Usually people lose their hair to get a big payday but this is Mexican money and I'm sure it's nothing compared to what he gets from AEW.


Oro cuts off some of JC's long hair. JC thinks that's it then Oro superkicks him. JC gets shaven fully bald.

Overall thoughts: It was a good show. Nothing was bad here and if you wanted a lot of fast paced action, this was the show for you. I thought the three-way tag was maybe the best match of the night here. The main was okay enough and Johnny Consejo losing his hair was a bit of a surprise. I would give this a 7 out of 10. I had no real issues with this show and I thought they put out a better card than usual here especially with so many of their stars out.
