**********

Friday night, much like Saturday night, is indeed all right for fighting and it’s even better when World’s Collide! As is tradition, the show kicked off with footage of the various participants (and the Undertaker!) arriving to work in various cars. Adia Cuevas sang the Mexican National Anthem, followed by Lillian Garica taking care of the Star Spangled Banner and we were ready for action!

To start the show, Penta was introduced to a massive ovation. He came to the ring with the Mexican flag and addressed the crowd. I’ll be honest, after a few “como estas?” to the crowd, I had no idea what he said. But the audience loved it, so I’m assuming it was positive.

La Parka, Octagón Jr., Laredo Kid & Mascarita Sagrada vs. Cruz Del Toro, Joaquin Wilde, Lince Dorado & Mini Abismo Negro

Dorado and Octagon kicked things off and did so with gusto. head scissors and hurricanranas were a plenty. Del Toro and Laredo squared off next, with Del Toro eating some heavy strikes in the corner. Del Toro took a super frankensteiner but landed on his feet. That brought in Wilde to help out on a double team.

Wilde stayed in and Laredo got a tag to La Parka to a big pop from the crowd. He and Wilde had a bit of a dance-off (la Parka won) and La Parka drop kicked him into the corner. La Parka stopped dancing long enough to get a spinning slam on Wilde and then the Mini’s tagged in!

Sagrada was giving up a significant size advantage to Abismo, but that didn’t stop him from running circles around him before tagging in Octagon. Laredo got a good pin opportunity, but only a two count.

Del Toro and Wilde put in the work to double team Laredo, but still only a two count. Wilde brought in Dorado who began trading chops with Laredo. He landed a flapjack and then a superkick, but still only two. Abismo tagged in and powerslamed Laredo.

Laredo missed a step up and Abismo made him pay with an elbow. Laredo hit a headscissor and managed to tag in Sagrada who literally spun circles around Abismo until he fell out of the ring. That brough in Del Toro, then Dorado, then Wilde but Sagrada took them all out, Wilde with a Falcon Arrow!

Octagon and Del Toro ended up the legal men and the two traded strikes in the middle of the ring. Del Toro hung Octagon up int he tree of woe and then went coast to coast with a dropkick. Laredo came in to make the save and everyone started spamming finishers, with Sagrada being the only one left standing.

Sagrada got an octopus onto Abismo, but all three of his partners bailed him out. La Parka hit a big cutter and then ate a springboard stunner from Dorado. That did not stop him from dancing. Octagon went up top and flung himself onto La Parka and Dorado on the outside. Del Toro then did the same on them, followed by Laredo taking out everyone.

Wilde was slingshotted by Del Toro and Dorado and few about 25 feet into everyone at ringside. That left Abismo and Sagrada as legal in the ring. Sagrada hit a flurry of headscissor moves and got the pin and victory for his team.

Match Result: La Parka, Octagón Jr., Laredo Kid & Mascarita Sagrada defeated Cruz Del Toro, Joaquin Wilde, Lince Dorado & Mini Abismo Negro

Natalya vs. Faby Apache

I am really liking this no-nonsense Natalya so this match against Apache was high on my list for this show. Winner becomes the #1 Contender for the AAA Reina de Reinas Championship.

Natalya got the upper hand off the top, but it was Apache who ended up locking her in a leg lock. Natalya fought out of it though and the two traded strikes. Natalya put a sleeper on Apache, but she was able to battle out of it as the two worked through an extended feeling out process.

Natalya got Apache up in a classic surfboard, but Apache wouldn’t give in. Natalya threw her off and went for a suplex, but Apache turned it into an inside cradle and almost got a pin. That enraged Natalya who started throwing lariats.

Apache was having trouble standing as Natalya hit her with blow after blow. She seemed to catch a second wind though and planted Natalya with a headscissor. Apache went up top for a crossbody followed by a big boot to Natalya’s face.

Apache put on an Armbar, but Natalya gritted her teeth and worked out of it. The two started trading brutal punches with Natalya screaming “I hate you!” as she rained down shots. Natalya picked up Apache and slammed her, but seemed to be favoring her left arm in the process.

Natalya put on an ankle lock, but Apache pulled her legs out from under her and put on an ankle lock of her own. Natalya pushed her off but walked into a kick to the face trying to throw a discus elbow. Apache looked to put Natalya away and pulled her to the center of the ring.

Apache stepped through, trying to get a sharpshooter, but Natalya pushed her off and the two rolled aorund trying to get a pin with Natalya coming up the winner, planting Apache for a quck 1-2-3.

Match Result: Natalya defeated Faby Apache

AAA World Tag Team Championship Match: Psycho Clown & Pagano (c) vs. The New Day

Before the match, the New Day announced that Xavier Woods wasn’t medically cleared to compete, so Kofi Kingston would be teaming with Grayson Waller. New Day entered and went straight to the ring, pausing only to yell at some children in the front row.

Waller and Clown (also the name of my acoustic Slipknot tribute band) kicked things off with Clown making short work of him and then sliding out of the ring to terrify Woods. He hopped back in the ring and flattened Waller with a shoulder block. Waller bounced back with a stiff shot to the big red nose of Clown.

Pagano tagged in and kicked Waller into next week. Waller slid out of the ring to recouperate, allowing Kingston to get in and lock up with Pagano. Pagano tried to flip Kingston out of the corner, but Kingston landed on his feet and then faced a double team from Pagano and Clown. Clown hit a split-legged moonsault on Kingston, but could only get a two-count.

Waller grabbed Clown from behind the ropes, giving Kofi an opening to stomp him in the corner. Waller and Kingston traded quick tags to beat on the isolated Clown. He managed to fight out of it, but when he went for the tag, Pagano was nowhere to be found thanks to a cheap shot from Waller.

Kingston tagged in and went up top, with Waller joining him on the opposite post. Then they jumped down and punched Clown a bunch, much to the crowd’s dismay. Kingston positioned Clown on the top turnbuckle and tried to remove his mask, which made Clown angry enough to hit a crossbody from the top rope.

Clown finally got a tag to Pagano who ran in and took Kingston to the corner. Waller tried to help but Pagano dropped him with a neckbreaker. Pagan picked up Kingston and hit a big side slam, but Kingston kicked out at two.

Pagano and Clown laid out Kingston and Waller in opposite corners and laid them out with stereo dropkicks. Pagano was the legal man and climbed up the turnbuckles, but Woods caused a distraction allowing Kingston to hit a superplex, followed by a big elbow from Waller, but it only got a two count.

Woods caused another distraction, but Clown took out kingston and then TORE HIS OWN FACE OFF to scare Woods away from ringside (it was his mask, not his real face. But still scary).

Clown punched Waller’s lights out then wrapped him up in a cradle to pick up the victory and retain the titles.

Match Result: Pagano and Psycho Clown defeated The New Day

After the match, Clown and Pagano were about to be interviewed when the lights went out and the music of the Wyatt Sicks played. The group entered with the WWE Tag Titles around Uncle Howdy’s neck. They stalked to the ring surrounded Clown and Pagano.

Loomis and Gacy punched the Clown and Rowan hit Pagano with the steel steps on the outside. Roawn and Gacy set up Slim Jim tables on the outside of the ring and laided out Pagaon for Gacy to send him through it.

In the ring, Rowan powerbombed Clown through a table and Uncle Howdy hit a Sister Abigail on Pagano. The Wyatts then posed with the AAA titles over the broken bodies of Pagano and Clown.

Mixed Tag Team Match: Mr. Iguana & Lola Vice vs. Finn Bálor & Roxanne Perez

The last time Balor and Iguana shared the ring we got the appearance of the Demon Puppet. I lobbied hard for there to be a Puppet vs Puppet match (and possibly a World Puppet Championship) but my cries fell on deaf ears. Instead, we get Vice and Perez as partners, which to be honest is pretty great if you can’t do puppets.

Perez and Balor came to the ring with Raquel Rodriguez and Balor was carrying a nondescript black bag that could only hold one thing: his Magic Card collection. Or a Puppet. Only time would tell.

Iguana and Balor started things off, with Balor going to work on the wrist and hand of Iguana, presumably to take away his puppetry skills. Balor went for his bag, but Iguana knocked him over and took the bag and tossed it under the ring. He then hit an Igunanarana on Balor and tagged in Vice.

Perez tagged in and Vice put her down with a shoulder block. Vice went for an arm bar, but Perez reversed it into a pin attempt. Vice set Perez up in the corner, but Balor pulled her to safety before anything could happen. Vice dragged her into the ring along with Balor who was trying to pull Perez back out.

That counted as a tag apparently, and Iguana went after Balor. Unfortunately, he got too close to Rodriguez who pulled him out and smashed him onto the ring apron. That gave Balor a chance to stomp Iguana and send him to the corner for some vicious strikes.

Balor kept Iguana from making a tag by dragging him around the ring. He put him down with a big elbow, and hung him up on the ropes, but suddenly the Demon Puppet (Democito) popped up from under the ring! Balor told him to wait until he needed him and Democito retreated.

Perez and Vice tagged in withn Vice absolutely pummelling Perez in the corner, butt-first. Perez tried to roll out of the ring, but Vice dragged her back in. Perez raked the eyes and then flip-slammed Vice. Vice got back up and pulled her in for a rear naked choke. Perez broke free and set her up on the top rope.

Iguana threw his puppet to Vice, causing a distraction and allowing Vice to slam Perez. That brought Balor in with his bag, but Iguana sent him back out. Iguana grabbed the bag and emptied it, but Balor and Democito appeared behind him and hit a sling blade followed but a shotgun dropkick.

Balor went for a Coup De Grace but Vice pulled him down allowing Iguana to slam Balor and Democito from the top rope.

Back in the ring, Perez and Vice battled. Rodriguez tried to get involved but Vice dispatched her and hit a spinning back elbow on Perez to get the pin.

Match Result: Mr. Iguana and Lola Vice defeated Finn Balor and Roxanne Perez

AAA Latin American Championship Fatal 4-Way Match: El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. (c) vs. Dragon Lee vs. Ethan Page vs. JD McDonagh

Stop me if you’ve heard this one: An Irishman, a Canadian, a Dragon and a Doctor all walk into a wrestling ring to fight for the Latin American Championship…

The match started with Lee and McDonagh trading punches and Page and Wagner pairing off. Wagner sent page out of the ring and went to dive after him, but McDonagh grabbed his ankle. Wagner turned around and clobbered McDonagh allowing Page to get a shot in. Wagner sent him to the corner and McDonagh hit him with a big suplex.

Lee rejoined the fray and took on Page and McDonagh, sending the latter into the former’s junk, face-first. McDonagh powered back though and sent Page and Lee to the outside, then sentoned Wagner. Page then used McDonagh as a weapon to take out Wagner and hit a face buster on Lee for a two count.

Page tied Lee’s mask to the ropes and stomped him, stopping only to hit a few jumping jacks. A brawl broke out with everyone spamming finishers, leaving all four laying. Lee and Page got up first and then the lights blew out. They turned on the house lights though and the match continued.

Lee stacked up McDonagh and Page for a double stomp and then hit a hurricanrana on Wanger by leaping over the top rope and sending him to the floor from the apron. He followed that with a Liger bomb on McDonagh, but only got a two count.

Page tried to steal one by sending Lee to the outside and pinning Mcdonagh, but he only got a two count. Lee came back and brought Wagner with him, setting him up in a tree of woe. He went up top, but McDonagh scrambled up and grabbed Lee for a Spanish Fly.

McDonagh tried to get to Lee, but ate a Mexican Destroyer for his trouble. Wagner then grabbed McDonagh and hit a Wagner Driver to get the pin and retain his title.

Match Result: El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. defeated Dragon Lee, Ethan Page and JD McDonagh

AAA Mega Championship Match: El Hijo del Vikingo (c) vs. Dominik Mysterio

Earlier in the show, Mysterio had a chat with his father and said that when he wins, he’s going to make Rey put the title around his waist. Rey said that he would do that for whoever won. Balor then showed up and said that in the interest of proving that Dominik is the King of the Luchadores, he should win this title alone.

Vikingo and Mysterio circled each other tentatitvely to start things off, feeling each other out. They moved into a chain with Mysterio trying for a 619 early. Vikingo dodged it and wrapped Mysterio in an ocotpus style hold, but Mysterio reversed it for a pin attempt.

Vikingo sent Mysterio to the outside and then dove headfirst through the ropes to take him out. Setting him up against the ring apron, Vikingo chopped Mysterio and tossed him back in. Vikingo charged, but Mysterio saw it coming and bounced him off the ropes before tossing him outside.

In front of Logan Paul in ther front row, Mysterio chopped Vikingo and then threw him into the steel stairs. Mysterio thew Vikingo back into the ring and hit a three amigos suplex set while the crowd chanted for Eddie, his real Dad.

Mysterio dropkicked Vikingo back out to the floor. Vikingo seemed to need a moment to adjust his gear, so Mysterio worked the crowd for a bit. When Vikingo rolled back in, Mysterio stomped him repeatedly and set him up for a sunset flip.

Mysterio slowed the pace down, taking his time and making sure that Vikingo didn’t have time to get his wits about him. That backfired though and Vikingo got a big chop in, followed by a superkick. Vikingo charged and Mysterio picked him up and hit snakeyes on the top rope.

Mysterio then rolled out and grabbed the Mega Championship belt. He posed with it and asked Konnan if he ever won it, to which Old Man K responded “suck it.” Mysterio rolled back in and locked in a sleeper on Vikingo.

Vikingo fought out of it and went up top for a Missile dropkick followed by a meteora in the corner. He went up top again, but as he leapt, Mysterio caught Vikingo in a powerbomb. It only got a two count though and the match continued.

Mysterio went for a 619, but Vikingo grabbed him and threw him off. Mysterio went up top, but Vikingo pulled him down in an electric chair and then a facebuster. Vikingo dragged Mysterio to the corner and went up top and nailed a 450 splash. Mysterio kicked out at two.

Suddenly, Balor and McDonagh arrived. McDonagh headbutted Vikingo behind the ref’s back, but Mysterio could only get a two count. Mysterio put on a mask and Balor passed him a foreign object. Mysterio put it in the mask, but Vikingo superkicked him. Then Dragon Lee and Rey Mysterio arrived to take out Balor and McDonagh.

Back in the ring, Vikingo hit a big kick and pulled Mysterio to the corner for another 450 splash. Vokingo covered him, but at two, El Grande Americano himself pulled the ref out of the ring. Mysterio hit Vikingo from behind and hit a 619 followed by a frog splash.

Mysterio pinned Vikingo, but there was no ref! A new official raced to the ring, but by then Mysterio could only get a two count. Vikingo hit a back kick and poisonrana. He then tried to remove the mask of Americano, giving Americano a chance to slip another foreign object to Mysterio who loaded up his mask and used it. He then hit a frog splash and one, two, three, Dominik Mysterio is the new AAA Mega Champion!

Match Result: Dominik Mysterio defeated El Hijo del Vikingo

After the match, as promised, Rey Mysterio came down to the ring. He handed the belt to his estranged son who insisted he put it around his waist. Rey reluctantly did so and dejectedly left the ring. Dom celebrated as the Judgement Day and Americano came down to share in his victory.
