Savo Vega is on the phone and I believe he's talking with The Undertaker of WWE fame (They were old WWF buddies and both were part of the backstage BSK friends group). Vega says the company is good and they are working hard to make it the best in PR. Vega says his wrestlers get paid before they get in the ring. He says he's working but we see him playing solitaire on the phone. He says he has a medical and dental plan for the wrestlers too. He says he's planning an IWA cruise as well for them. He says he will take the food out of his mouth so they can eat if he has to. Vega confirms his men are being well paid. 

Fernando Tonos interrupts and Vega says Tonos is happy and wants to talk about something good. Vega hangs up the phone and tells Tonos he's busy. Tonos gives him an envelope and says the board to decided to annul Vega's presidency ceremony. Tonos says the board annulled his retirement as a wrestler too. He says Vega will have to wrestle again.

Vega says he can't fight and has injuries to his back and neck. He says his finger hurts and he can't move his middle finger straight. He then flips him off. Tonos says Vega always has excuses to evade his responsibility and financial obligations. He says those won't fly. Tonos says they conducted an investigation into his time as president. Tonos says it emerged that Vega as paying wrestlers on the roster who don't exist. 

Tonos says Vega made a mistake and says he put the fake wrestlers salaries into his account. Tonos says not to disrespect him. Vega tells him to look at himself in the mirror and says no one will force him to get into the ring. Vega says he's retired. Tonos says he's obligated to sign that. Vega says that if Tonos' gang wants a war, there will be an ugly war. Vega says things are going to go his way. He says he loves him and appreciates him. 

IWA Puerto Rican Title - Pedro Portillo III (c) vs Super Atomo

They lock up and trade waistlocks. Atomo rolls him up for 2 then armdrags him into an armlock. PP armdrags him down. PP's head is banged off the buckles. Atomo top rope crossbodies him for 2. They go out and Atomo is sent into the post. 

PP punches him outside then sends him into the post again. Atomo hits chops and gets eye raked. PP stomps Atomo's hand. PP back elbows him. Atomo hits shots to the gut and PP lariats him. PP suplexes him for 2. 

PP chinlocks him. Atomo hits elbows to the gut and takes a flying knee to the back for 2. PP chops Atomo outside. PP chops him outside then elbows him in the chest. They trade chops. PP eye pokes him. Atomo walks up the buckles and diving armdrags him. PP lariats him.

Atomo flying headscissors him. Atomo hits flying forearms and corkscrew kicks him. PP flatliners him for 2. Atomo casadora bulldogs him for 2. Atomo chops and punches him in the corner.

Thoughts: It was a good match. Atomo was your classic babyface here. He sold his beating, got a nice comeback in then took out the interfering wrestler instead of going for the win and got beaten over it. I thought Atomo did a good job and I'd like to see this one again. 

Tonos is on the phone with an unknown person. He says he told Savio Vega about the situation but says Vega threatened him and everyone as usual. 

IWA Vendetta is on 2/21/26.

La Wizard Analiza

Wizard talks to Pedro Portillo III. PP says he feels glorification and gives Wiz the belt so he can feel what it's like to be champ. Wiz says he has bad news. Wiz says Super Atomo cashed in his Mayor's Cup to get a title shot at PP. PP says look at just what happened when he beat him. PP says what's wrong with people? He says everyone wants to dethrone him. He says he's the common denominator and says he knows why everyone wants to face him. PP says he wrestled guys at the same level as him when he started and Atomo is trying to face people above his level. PP says he will give him the match but Atomo will lose to the best Puerto Rican wrestler of the last 25 years. Wizard says that match will be on 2/21.

La Silla Caliente

Raul Magnum (one of the announcers) talks to Excellent Mantel. Raul calls him a traitor. Mantel wants to be called Jose "El Mencho" Navarro now. Jose says he had an accident in 2021 and he either died or nearly died in the hospital. He says Pupe Jackson didn't visit him in the hospital then. Jose says he was the world tag team champion and says all the success of The Drunken Express was due to him. He says Pupe Jackson is trash. Raul tells him Pupe will return and Jose doesn't care. Jose wants to leave. He tells Raul to send a message to Pupe. He then kicks Raul in the nuts and hits him with a potted plant. Raul's kid comes in and checks on him. Jose says to forgive him and that he's sorry. He then hits the kid with the plant. He says not to forget his name and says his road to the top begins now.  

IWA World Title - Jay Blake (c) vs Manu

Savio Vega is with Manu.

Both guys pose on the buckles and lock up a couple of times. Jay hits punches and boots. They trade shots. Jay flying back elbows him. Jay suplexes him for 2. Manu clips him then attacks the leg. Manu leglocks him and stretch mufflers him. Manu hits a big uranage for 2. 

Jay is thrown out. Vega boots Jay outside. Jay and Manu each get some shots in. Jay's leg is banged off the apron edge. Jay is abused on the bottom rope and Vega punches Jay. Jay forearms and rolls up Manu for 2. Manu hits a nice lariat. Manu crotches Jay on the post then bangs his leg off of it. Manu chokes and punches Jay.

Vega punches Jay and the ref sees it. The ref yells at Vega outside and he ejects Vega. Jay hits a stunner on Manu and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a good bout here with the heels cheating, getting caught and then Jay picking up the win off Savio Vega's ejection. Jay sold and Manu had some decent looking offense. We only had one botch here and Jay got thrown off of it so it was forgivable.

Tonos talks to Raul in the back and asks what happened. Raul says Jose crossed the line. Tonos asked what happened. Raul says Jose touched his son. Raul says he wants Jose face to face in the ring or the parking lot. He says he doesn't care whether IWA allows it or not. He says he's seeking revenge. He says he's not a fighter but he doesn't turn down a good fight. Tonos says he will authorize the match.

Overall thoughts: It was a good show as usual. Portillo/Atomo was a traditional match with Atomo being a good face. Blake/Manu was also good with Blake selling and the heels cheating. We also got some explanation on Excellent Mantel's turn, but it was a little weak. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 and I thought it was a good show.
