Thoughts: Pant Jr had a few not so clean spots but it wasn't anything bad. It was pretty good opener otherwise. We got lots of dives and they really stared off with a furious pace. They ended this at the right time too.

Valiente Jr., Max Star and Futuro vs Stigma, Arkalis and Rayo Metalico

Futuro's team won the first fall then Futuro got on his partners shoulders on the buckles and splashed Stigma. Stigma pinned Valiente Jr with a top rope splash to win the 2nd fall. Valiente Jr wins the 3rd fall with a code blue on Arkalis. Valiente Jr.'s team wins the match.

Thoughts: It was nearly impossible to follow. It's not so much that everyone in it is works similarly...but 5 out of the 6 chose to wear white outfits with various shades of blue. Add a fast pace to it and lots of spots with multiple people in the ring and it got worse. It wasn't quite as wild as I expected but it had a lot of flying as expected. It would have probably taken me a half hour to write a play by play on this due to the wardrobe issues.

Thoughts: It was only one fall here and I'm not sure why. It was acceptable. They didn't have a lot of botches, they flew a little and things mostly went okay.

They throw giant beach balls in the ring into the crowd and let them play with them. They then try to get the crowd to do the wave.

Titan superkicks Yut. Titan flying corner lariats Yut and falls outside doing it. Titan top rope double stomps Yut. Titan does a sharpshooter with a bridge on Yut and submits him.

Thoughts: It started out very fast and they definitely got tired near the end of it. They worked a bit faster than they could handle and the match was rushed and not so great. Titan falling through the ropes off the corner lariat was kind of funny.

The Villanos miss flying moves. SG springboard plancha's Hijo out and Mort pop-up samoan drops V3Jr. Mort top rope corkscrew moonsaults V3Jr and pins him. Mortos' team wins the match.

Thoughts: I was surprised The Villanos didn't win here. They had a few sloppy moments but it mostly went okay here. It had a lot of flying as expected and The Villanos went all out as usual.

Thoughts:
It was an okay main. It didn't go that long and Tiger didn't mix the greatest with some of these guys. We had a lot of flying here and a lot of action. Tiger got the win as expected since he's on his retirement tour. 

The announcer then closes out the show.

Overall thoughts: The opener was maybe the best thing on here. The 2nd match wasn't bad but it was very hard to follow with everyone wearing near identical white and blue outfits. The women's match was acceptable. Titan/Yutani was rushed. The ROH Tag Title was okay. The main was also okay. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 as it was a decent night of wrestling overall but not CMLL's best. A lot of CMLL regulars were missing from this one.
