Commentators: John Bradshaw Layfield, Corey Graves

So last week we had quite the bombshell as Rey Mysterio was accused of having an affair with Marisela Pena. That’s not exactly Mysterio’s style as he is a proudly married man, but something like that has never stopped Dorian Roldan, who accused him in the first place. That should be enough to carry this show, but I’m sure we’ll have some rather fast paced action as well. Let’s get to it.

The opening recap looks at last week’s accusation against Rey Mysterio, with Dorian Roldan pushing for him to be stripped of his powers as GM for various actions, including the alleged affair.

Here is Roldan to get things going and the fans are all over him. People have been asking him about Marisela Pena but she’s not here tonight. The people here no longer have to worry about Mysterio and all of the horrible things he does. Mysterio is a power hungry cheater who cheats on his wife, which is enough to bring Mysterio out to interrupt. He wants to beat Roldan up himself but instead he’s going to say something.

Mysterio is getting ready for Survivor Series as captain of Team Mexico but Roldan thinks he has more important things to worry about. Roldan accuses him of taking advantage of Pena, which Mysterio calls a lie. Roldan wants Mysterio to hit him, but first know one thing: Mysterio is officially suspended as General Manager and Roldan is interim GM. His first ruling: having Mysterio removed from the building. With Mysterio gone, Roldan makes sure to pose for photos.

We look at Omos going after Pimpinela Escarlata a few weeks back, with Escarlata issuing the challenge.

El Grande Americano checks to see if Escarlata is crazy but the match has already been changed….to a No DQ match. That’s not exactly what Americano had in mind.

Rey Fenix announces a tournament to crown a new #1 contender to his Cruiserweight Title, with the triple threat matches (of course) starting tonight.

Cruiserweight Title #1 Contenders Tournament First Round: Kento vs. Lince Dorado vs. Jack Cartwheel

Dorado takes over on both of them to start but gets sent into the corner. Kento and Cartwheel take turns covering Dorado before Kento takes Cartwheel’s leg out. Kento’s frog splash hits both of them at the same time but gets sent outside. Dorado gets a cross armbreaker on Cartwheel, followed by a backbreaker for a quick two. Cartwheel sends Dorado outside but slides into the ring skirt, with JBL certainly approving.

Back in and Cartwheel fires off some kicks to the head but his leg seems to be bothering him. Granted it’s fine enough for a slingshot splash to both of them but Kento catches him in an electric chair. Dorado missile dropkicks Cartwheel, who poisonranas Kento in a sweet counter. Kento is back up with a big flip dive onto the other two outside and a springboard crucifix driver gets two on Dorado.

Back in and Cartwheel dropkicks both of them outside, setting up a big dive onto Kento. Dorado cuts Cartwheel off and tries a shooting star on Kento, only to dive into Cartwheel’s superkick (or at least the general area of one). Jack’s Arrow gives Cartwheel the pin on Dorado at 9:57.

Rating: B-. In a shocker, three more talented cruiserweights got some time to showcase what they can do and made something of it. That’s been a recurring idea on this show for a long time and it continued here, with Cartwheel continuing his impressive AAA run. Beating Dorado is a nice thing to see and Cartwheel getting the title shot wouldn’t be a bad idea whatsoever.

Post match Cartwheel and Fenix have the respectful showdown.

Dorian Roldan holds his first press conference and announces that next week it’s Los Perros del Mal vs. La Parka/Rey Fenix/El Grande Americano. He also repeats the accusations against Rey Mysterio, who is a terrible husband and father.

Omos vs. Pimpinela Escarlata

No DQ. Escarlata charges at him to start and is quickly thrown into the corner. Some standing on the chest in the corner has Escarlata in more trouble but a low blow on the ropes slows Omos down for a change. Escarlata low bridges him to the floor for a suicide dive so naturally it’s time for the pimp stick. Omos isn’t having this and breaks said stick before throwing Escarlata onto the announcers’ table. The table is loaded up in the corner so here is El Grande Americano for the save.

Americano hammers away with both fists and the belt but here are Los Perros del Mal to jump Americano before next week. Los Perros beat on Omos as well but here are Penta and Rey Fenix for the big brawl. With Los Perros gone, Omos is triple teamed through the table and some frog splashes crush him as well. The three of them run off but here are…some unnamed people that commentary says we’ve seen before to take Escarlata out. Omos, eventually, hits a chokeslam for the pin at 8:02.

Rating: C-. Uh, yeah. I get that Escarlata is a legend and all that, but this shouldn’t have been close in any way. Having so much interference to keep Escarlata close is one thing but I don’t get the appeal of having a monster like Omos get this close to losing here. Omos should be special and protected and just wasn’t here, for the sake of a bunch of other things and people.

The credits were rolling on the cover and the video cut out as Omos was being announced as the winner.

 

Results
Jack Cartwheel b. Kento and Lince Dorado – Jack’s Arrow to Dorado

The final score: review Average

The 411

I liked the opener and I can get into the melodrama stuff, but that main event really didn’t work for me. We’re on the way to Guerra de Titantes and I have no idea what we’re going to be seeing there, though Omos getting the title shot would have been an option. Now though, not so much, and that doesn’t really leave a lot of options. Not their best work this week.
