And here we go, fresh from Saturday Night’s Main Event!
The show kicked right off with the announcement of the new AAA General manager: Rey Mysterio jr!
Dom is gonna be maaaaaaaad….
Mysterio then announced the start of the first match:
AAA World Cruiserweight Championship Match: Laredo Kid (c) vs Rey Fenix
Savio Vega joined the commentary team to replace new GM Rey Mysterio and the bell rang to start the match. Fenix started working the arm of Laredo, sending him off the ropes but falling victim to an arm drag.
Laredo reset himself and Fenix grabbed him in a headlock. He broke out of that and Fenix went to the outside. Laredo hit a suicide dive onto him and threw him back in. He went for a top rope dropkick, but Fenix grabbed him in midair and turned it into a sit out powerbomb for a two count.
Laredo hit a neckbreaker and then a michinoku driver, but Fenix was able to kick out of the cover. Fenix went for a spingboard, but Laredo was waiting. He applied a waistlock on the second rope and Fenix fought him off, rolling into a cutter.
Fenix hoisted Laredo up for a brain buster, but Laredo kicked out of the cover. Fenix sent him to the corner, but Laredo countered into a destroyer DDT that shook the ring. Fenix somehow kicked out at two.
Laredo hit a poisonrana but Fenix came right back with a German suplex. Laredo hit a big forearm, but Fenix came back with a step up kick. He hoisted Laredo up for a Mexican Muscle buster, but Laredo countered it.
Fenix then went for a discus elbow, but Laredo collapsed. The ref checked on Laredo and then went to talk to the time keeper. While he was doing that, Laredo hit a low blow on Fenix. The ref turned back around in time to see Laredo hit a frog splash and get the pin to retain his title.
Match Result: Laredo Kid defeated Rey Fenix
It was then announced that Noche De Los Grandes will be two week event starting next week. Full card(s) to come, but the event will feature a Six Woman Tag Match, the War Raiders vs Pagano & Psycho Clown for the AAA Tag Team Championships and of course, the Mask-Vs-Mask match to end the Americano Civil War; Real El Grande Americano vs OG El Grande Americano.
-Back from break, Rey Mysterio approached Laredo Kid about his actions in the previous match. He said he was disappointed in Laredo, but Laredo said a win is a win. Mysterio said that Fenix would get another shot at Laredo at Noche De Los Grandes.
Los Hermanos Americanos (Julios and Bruto Creddos aka The Creed Brothers) vs. Los Americanos (Rayo and Bravo)
The Creed’s came down in their Los Hermanos Americanos personas while JBL and Graves debated if they were in fact the Creed Brothers. I’m sure everyone totally understood and wasn’t confused. Because I know I wasn’t. It must have be you.
Any way, The match would be contested under Superlucha rules which meant there wouldn’t be any tages needed. With that being the case, I won’t lie to you, the whole switcheroo between the Creeds and the Creedos was confusing as hell and made it really hard to follow what was going on. They were in the same outfits and it was a bit of a nightmare. So I tried my best.
The Creedos’ took out Rayo and Bravo on the outside with a double dive and then beat them up ant ringside. Rayo took out Bruto, but then Julios slammed him headfirst into the steel steps. They tossed Rayo back into the ring with a couple of chairs and tried to get him with a con-chair-to but Bravo pulle him out of the way.
Rayo and Bravo then used the chairs to take out Julios and then set up Bruto on the chair. They dropped him face-first onto the chair and then split Julio’s legs around the ring post. Bravo then pulled an OG Americano Piniata out from underneath the ring and hit Bruto with it, splitting it in half and spreading candy around the ring.
Rayo and Bravo then pulled a table out and set it up on the barricades. Julio and Bruto came down and beat them up, with Julio dropping Bravo on the ring apron. The Hermanos were in control now and Julio and Rayo fought in the ring. Bruto joined him and they beat up Rayo.
They slammed Rayo onto the chair and then dropped him back first onto it. Rayo popped back up and tried to fight them off but fell victim to the damn numbers game. Bravo came flying into the ring to break up a pin, but the Hermanos beat him up and sent him back out.
Bravo returned with an American flag and beat up Julio with it. Rayo sent Bruto flying off the ringpost and Bravo hit an Airplane spin into an olympic slam. Both Americanos went up top for duelling diving headbutts, but somehow Bruto kicked out of the cover.
Bravo dropkicked Bruto, then Julio took him out. Rayo tried to help but they both got caught in a super collider by the Hermanos. It led to a double kickout at two though.
Julio hit a double superplex off the ring post followed by a 450, but Bravo kicked out of the cover.
Bruto set up a table at ringside and they went to throw Rayo through it but Bravo popped up with a kendo stick and took them out. He laid out Bruto on the table and Rayo climbed up and hit a splash from the ringpost, driving Bruto through the table.
Bravo then went at Julio with the kendo stickm, holding him while Rayo loaded up his mask and hit him with a diving headbutt. Before they could make the cover though OG Americano showed up and put Rayo through the announce table.
Real Americano came running down with a chair and beat up the Hermanos. OG got in the ring and they stared each other down, unable to touch each other lest they ruin their Mask-Vs-Mask match. OG bailed from the ring and Real grabbed a mic.
He said that OG will never beat him because he doesn’t understand Mexican wrestling. The only thing OG is going to be is a “shorty.” That brought OG back into the ring and he got ready to fight. OG pulled off his sweatshirt and he had a shirt underneath with a picture of Real’s girlfriend who OG got fired at their contract signing.
It was about to go off when the Hermanos and Americanos ran into the ring and pulled them apart. OG and Real broke free though and started slugging each other, violating the no touching rule!
Security arrived and everyone tried to pull them apart.
Match Result: The Creed Brothers vs. Los Americanos went to a no contest, I guess?
Rey Mysterio Jr came out and told them to calm down. He said that next week Mask vs Mask was on no matter what. At least I think thats what he said, Savio’s translations are not as good as Rey’s.
The brawl continued and the locker room emptied to try and maintain some control as the show transitioned into a comic-book style promo for Noches de Los Grandes.
