Picudo, whose contract (along with 19 others) may be up in the air

Welcome to AAA TV, as we continue our North American tour, stopping in
Albany, New York!  We didn't really draw a huge crowd, but at least
the effort's there.  Tonight, we're focusing a lot more on action.
Our main event tonight has Canek, Cibernetico, Octagon, Perro Aguayo
and Ultimo Dragon locking up with Blue Demon Jr., Pentagon, Steve
Corino, and a Tradicion team consisting of Pierroth Jr. and El Texano.
As well, a 5-man Pinfalls Only Battle Royal, women's action, and a
Mexican National Tag Team Title Match!  Let's head to the ring for out
first match.

MATCH #1: Ayako Hamada, Chaparrita ASARI and Kaori Nakayama vs.
Chikako Shiratori, Miss Janeth and Xochitl Hamada - ONE FALL

Xochitl and Ayako start off.  Lockup, Xochitl shoves Ayako down and
Shiratori comes in for the double team.  Ayako's whipped into the
ropes, and hit with a double dropkick.  Some kicks by Xochitl,
followed by a German suplex for a one count.  Another kick by Xochitl,
which sets up Ayako for a senton.  Xochitl whips Ayako into the ropes,
but runs shoulder-first into the corner.  Single-leg takedown by
Ayako, who tags ASARI in.  Double flying dropkick by the rudos on
ASARI.  ASARI hits Xochitl with a senton for a two count, then goes
airborne with a Frankensteiner from the top rope!  The tag is made now
to Kaori Nakayama, who wastes no time in helping to beat up Xochitl
with a flying somersault bodyblock!  Belly-to-back suplex by Kaori,
but the second one is countered with an elbowsmash by Xochitl.  In
comes Chikako Shiratori.  The rivals trade chops, with Chikako
sneaking in a hiptoss in the middle.  Back suplex by Chikako, followed
by a nicely executed Aztecan suplex for a two count.  Not satisfied,
Chikako drops herself on Kaori with a moonsault, but that also gets
two.  Determined, Chikako runs off the ropes, and hits a flying cross
body press.  Only problem was, Kaori rolled through and got a two
count.  Chikako doesn't let that faze her, however, and hits a
belly-to-back suplex on Kaori.  A top-rope DDT was blocked, however,
and ASARI came in to help out Kaori.  Chikako went down courtesy of a
double clothesline, and Kaori locked on a Boston crab.  It took
Chikako a while, but she made it to the ropes, and tagged Janeth in!
Back suplex by Janeth, then a belly-to-back suplex by Chikako.  Both
women set Kaori up...  DOUBLE DDT!  That might have done it, but
they're setting her up again...  DOUBLE KNEEDROP!  Ouch!  Chikako
leaves, as Janeth aims to finish this match with the Northern Lights
Suplex!  One...  two...  AYAKO MAKES THE SAVE!  Janeth takes down
Kaori with a flying clothesline, but can't keep her shoulders down for
the count.  Janeth goes for another flying clothesline, misses, and
gets hit with a bridging back suplex by Kaori!  ASARI comes in,
sending Janeth crashing down with a bodyslam, while Kaori's up on
top...  MOONSAULT!  COUNTERED!  Janeth put her foot up just in time,
and Kaori couldn't move in time!  Xochitl comes in, and the duo takes
Kaori out again with a double DDT.  Janeth hits another flying
clothesline, and sets Kaori up for another Northern Lights Suplex...
HITS IT!  Xochitl goes off the ropes, and dives onto Ayako and ASARI
with a tope suicida!  Meanwhile, Janeth pretty much puts it away with
a power bomb, and goes for the pin...  One...  two...  THREE!!!  Rudas
take it!

Chikako Shiratori, Miss Janeth and Xochitl Hamada defeated Ayako
Hamada, Kaori Nakayama and Chaparrita ASARI when Miss Janeth pinned
K. Nakayama after a power bomb in 0:10:55.
Rating: **

The rudas taunted Kaori and Ayako after the match, and Xochitl would
have joined them, however, she was handed a *large* box of caramel
chocolates by a delivery boy, with a note attached.  Xochitl took one
look at the note, paused, then walked back to the locker room, in
disbelief!  What the hell was that?  Oh, and Janeth demanded a title
shot against Kaori Nakayama by virtue of pinning her tonight.

(we cut to Steve Corino walking down a hallway in the arena.)

"Oh, yes.  Tonight's the night.  It's finally time for me to be the
Main Eventer, the Showstopper, the Icon, and the whole f'n show.  Time
for me to prove... nah, to show all the braindead losers in the back
that I'm just as tough as them, just as strong as them, just as
smart... smarter than them, and everything else I forgot.  Today, the
win in the main event, tomorrow... the Mexican National
Middleweight... no, Heavyweight Title.  I'm on a streak, and nothing
can knock me off of it.  I'm on the top of the world, and there's no
looking down...  HEY!"

My god!  Abismo Negro!  He just attacked Steve Corino from behind!
Corino...  OH!  Corino goes face-first into the brick wall!  His nose
might be broken!  Abismo's putting the boots to Corino here...  He has
a chair!  OH!  Corino goes down!  Abismo is destroying Corino!
Abismo...  he has Corino in his grasp...  Oh, no!  NO!  He has him set
up for a Tombstone!  He has him up...  DAMN!!!  TOMBSTONE!!!  CORINO
IS KO'ED!  Officials and paramedics are rushing to the back, and
they're restraining Abismo!  This was...  sickening!

<commercial>

As we were away, Corino was placed into an ambulance and taken to
hospital in a neck brace, and it looks like he has a stinger in his
neck.  Meanwhile, one of the members of the AAA Executive Committee
confronted Abismo, and you won't believe what happened!

Committee Member: Abismo...  ABISMO!  What the hell was that?
Abismo: You know perfectly well what it was!
Committee Member: No, I don't!  What was it?
Abismo: Take a look.  Almost all the big guys have matches for Verano,
but what about me?  So far, nothing.
Committee Member: Abismo, you haven't done much of note recently...
Abismo: You want to end up like Corino?
Committee Member: No, Abismo, I...
Abismo: You want to be hurled into a brick wall face-first, and
brained with a f'n chair from behind, you little sh*t?
Committee Member: Abismo, don't...
Abismo: YOU WANT YOUR F'N NECK SNAPPED IN TWO, MAKING YOU A INVALID
FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?  STAYING IN BED ALL THE TIME, SUFFERING
EVERY SINGLE MINUTE OF EVERY SINGLE DAY, WISHING YOU COULD JUST CURL
UP INTO A DAMN BALL AND DIE???  BECAUSE I CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN, PRICK!
Committee Member: So that's how you want to play?  Fine.  Tonight,
that main event is still happening... but you'll be in Corino's place!
How about that?
Abismo: ...I knew you'd see the light. *leaves*

MATCH #2: Brazo De Oro, Heavy Metal and Rey Dragon vs. Charly Manson,
May Flowers and Nygma (Los Vatos Locos) - 2/3 FALL MATCH

First fall: Long fall, so it was shown in clip form.  Highlights were
shown, including Oro hitting Manson with a Frankensteiner from the top
rope for a two count, then following up with a moonsault for two;
Manson with an Asai moonsault onto Metal; Nygma going for the Flying
Splash, but meeting with Metal's knees; Rey Dragon with an Asai
moonsault bodyblock onto May Flowers for two; Rey Dragon with spinning
headscissors on Nygma; and Oro hitting Nygma with a flying cross body
press from the top rope, then his Frankensteiner for the win.
Tecnicos lead, 1-0.

Second fall: Oro wastes no time, knocking down Nygma with a
Frankensteiner from the top rope for two!  Flying armdrag by Oro,
followed by a rana attempt that is countered into a power bomb by
Nygma for a two count.  Nygma tags Manson into the ring, and Oro
tastes a double backdrop.  Manson gets a two count with a powerslam,
then locks Oro into an armbar submission.  That's broken up by Heavy
Metal, who replaces Oro in the ring.  Both men trade chops, until
Metal catches Manson in a high cross body for two.  Metal runs at
Manson, but Metal ends up on the floor thanks to a backdrop, and
Manson goes airborne with a MOONSAULT PLANCHA!!!  That pretty much
sealed this one, as Metal went into the guardrail after the move.
Back inside the ring, Manson clotheslined Metal, and then, as Los
Vatos Locos brawled with Rey Dragon and Oro on the outside, executed
the Bullet Dropkick for the three count.  Match is tied up.

Third fall: Lockup, Manson takes down Metal with a dropkick, then with
spinning headscissors.  A snap suplex attempt by Manson is countered
by Metal, but he doesn't see the spinning leg lariat coming.
Slingshot elbowdrop by Manson, who lets his guard down *just* long
enough for Oro to be tagged in.  A double underhook suplex attempt by
Manson is countered with a backdrop by Oro, but Manson drags Oro into
a sunset flip for two.  Still, Oro won't give up, and whips Manson
into the corner.  When he staggers out...  DROPKICK!  Huge move by
Oro, who goes up top and hits a MOONSAULT!  One...  two...  SHOULDER
UP!  Manson's groggy at the moment, and whips Oro into the ropes, but
gets caught with a rana...  One...  two...  KICKOUT!  Oro grabs
Manson, and sets him up on the top!  Oro with a top-rope
Frankensteiner...  MAY FLOWERS WITH THE SAVE!  Rey Dragon and Heavy
Metal jump in, as does Nygma, and we have a huge brawl on our hands!
In the middle of all this, Manson walks right into a rana by Rey
Dragon, and when he gets up, a Frankensteiner by Oro!  One...  two...
THREE!!!  UPSET!

Two-out-of-three-Falls Match:
Brazo De Oro, Heavy Metal and Rey Dragon beat Los Vatos Locos (Charly
Manson, May Flowers and Nygma) 2 falls to 1:
x Oro beat Nygma via the Frankensteiner in 0:15:34
x C. Manson beat H. Metal via the Bullet Dropkick in 0:20:01
x Oro beat C. Manson via the Frankensteiner in 0:23:29
Rating: * 3/4

Los Vatos Locos did *not* like this at all, and conferenced with
themselves after the match... then attacked the tecnicos from behind!
Manson with the Bullet Dropkick, and Flowers and Nygma with power
bombs!  Obviously, they're sore losers.

MATCH #3: Magnum Tokyo and Mr. Niebla (c) vs. El Cobarde and Sangre
Chicana (Tradicion) - Mexican National Tag Team Title Match - 2/3 FALL
MATCH

First fall: Lockup, Tokyo tries to bodyslam Cobarde, but that's
blocked easily.  Cobarde with a bodyslam on Tokyo, but he can't follow
up on it.  DDT by Tokyo, who waits for Cobarde to get up, then hits
him with a swinging neckbreaker for a two count.  Niebla's tagged in
at this point, and they perform a snap suplex/flying cross body combo
on Cobarde.  Rana by Niebla, but that gets two.  Cobarde's in trouble
here, and Niebla capitalizes with a spinning backbreaker for a two
count.  Cobarde begs off, but Niebla won't stand for it, and takes him
down with spinning headscissors, then goes up top.  However, Cobarde's
one step ahead of Niebla, and nails him in the stomach, effectively
crotching Niebla on the top turnbuckle.  Chicana's tagged in, and
nails Niebla with an elbowsmash, but throws Niebla into his corner,
letting him tag Tokyo in.  Chicana's waiting for him, and hits a power
bomb for two.  Both men go into a neutral corner, with both men
hitting a near-equal number of chops, punches and kicks, until Tokyo
hits one too many and sends Chicana to the mat.  Tokyo climbs up
top...  ASAI MOONSAULT!!!  One...  two...  KICKOUT!  Tokyo tags Niebla
in.  Niebla whips Chicana into the corner, runs in, but tastes a boot
in the face.  Chicana attacks with some stiff chops to Niebla, and
wanted to lock on the Chicana Special, but Tokyo broke that up in a
hurry.  Chicana tried to side suplex Tokyo, but that was reversed into
spinning headscissors!  While Niebla ran onto Cobarde with a running
tope, Tokyo had Chicana up...  VIAGRA DRIVER!  This can only mean one
thing, after a little dance for the ladies by Tokyo...  AV STAR PRESS!
The cover...  One...  two...  HE GOT HIM!  Champions lead, 1-0.

Second fall: Shown in clip form.  Highlights included Chicana being
rolled up by Tokyo for a two count after an attempted DDT; El Cobarde
countering a Frankensteiner by Tokyo into a tiger driver, which forced
Niebla to make the save; Niebla almost finishing Cobarde off with the
Frankensteiner, but being slammed down to the mat with a power bomb
instead for a near fall; Magnum Tokyo jumping onto Chicana with an
Asai moonsault from the top to the outside; and Cobarde countering a
Niebla bodyslam into a small package - while holding the tights, mind
you - for the pinfall.  Match is tied up at one fall each.

Third fall: Niebla's on fire when the bell rings, getting a two count
on Cobarde after a clothesline.  Niebla with a rana attempt, but...
YOU CAN'T (usually) RANA COBARDE!  Or something like that.  Power bomb
by Cobarde for a two count.  Cobarde continues with a legdrop for two,
but Tokyo comes in for the two-on-one, and they hit another snap
suplex/flying cross body press combo!  Niebla covers for two.
Bodyslam attempt by Niebla, but that's countered with a series of
elbows to the face by Cobarde.  Both men chop each other, but after a
rake to the eyes, Cobarde clotheslines Niebla and tags Chicana in.
Niebla goes off the ropes...  Double fist to the midsection!  Off the
ropes again...  Double kick to the gut!  One more time...  DOUBLE
CLOTHESLINE BY NIEBLA!  Chicana springs up, and hits Niebla with a
fistdrop as he's down.  Bodyslam by Chicana, followed by suplexing
Tokyo over the top rope and tossing Niebla out.  Change of partners, I
guess.  DDT by Chicana, followed by a *huge* senton!  One...  two...
SHOULDER UP!  Vertical suplex by Chicana, who mimics Tokyo's dancing,
then makes a very rude gesture to the fans, yelling "VIVA TRADICION!".
Tokyo's on his feet, however, and both men exchange punches, with
Tokyo finally coming away with a German suplex, then a *real* dance
for the crowd, which they love.  Power bomb by Tokyo, but Chicana gets
his shoulder up at two.  Tokyo tried a Swinging DDT, but that was
blocked by Chicana, who, after a bodyslam, locked on the Chicana
Special!  Tokyo was in trouble, but Niebla broke the hold!  All four
men in the ring now, and while Cobarde pounds away on Niebla, Chicana
missed a short lariat on Tokyo, turned around...  and got hit with a
Viagra Driver!  It's over!  Up on top...  AV STAR PRESS!!!  The
cover...  One...  two...  THREE!!!  Champs retain!

Two-out-of-three-Falls Match:
Magnum Tokyo and Mr. Niebla beat Tradicion (El Cobarde and Sangre
Chicana) 2 falls to 1:
x M. Tokyo beat Chicana via the AV Star Press in 0:07:35
x Cobarde beat Mr. Niebla via a small package in 0:13:44
x M. Tokyo beat Chicana via the AV Star Press in 0:21:59
Rating: *
(Magnum Tokyo and Mr. Niebla retained the Mexican National Tag Team
Titles.)

Good match there, with Tokyo and Niebla retaining, but while Tokyo
retrieved the titles from the timekeeper, Cobarde and Chicana picked
Niebla up, and hit him with a double power bomb!  When Tokyo returned
to the ring, he didn't know what the hell had happened to Niebla, but
helped him up afterwards.  Both tecnicos left to a standing ovation
from the crowd.

MATCH #4: El Mosco vs. Kickboxer vs. Mosco De La Merced vs. Negro
Casas vs. Super Crazzy - Pinfalls Only Battle Royal

Very interesting match here.  Seems Kickboxer and Gran Apache (not
here tonight) have formed an alliance, and are battling off Negro
Casas, and we all know the history between the other three men, El
Mosco, Super Crazzy and Mosco De La Merced.  Pinfalls only, last man
left standing wins.  Let's get to it.

It's every man for himself here.  Casas and Mosco lockup, Mosco draws
first blood with a power bomb for a one count.  Inside cradle by
Casas, which also gets one.  Casas follows up with a scorpion
deathlock, but Mosco breaks the hold easily.  Some punches by Casas,
followed by a vertical suplex, and Mosco's getting beaten pretty badly
early on.  Negro whips Mosco into the ropes, but he's tripped by
Kickboxer, and Mosco hits an Asai moonsault for a two count.  Mosco
jumps onto the top rope to work the crowd, as Kickboxer and Casas
lockup.  Bodyslam by Kickboxer, but Casas breaks free with some blows
to the stomach, and ducks a Superkick attempt with ease.  Meanwhile,
Mosco and Crazzy are going at it, and Mosco just got a two count with
a flying axhandle.  Mosco goes up top, trying to hit his Flying
Senton, but missed!  Kickboxer is choking Casas with his boot in the
corner, meanwhile, but El Mosco makes the save, and takes down
Kickboxer with a vertical suplex.  Power bomb by El Mosco, but no
cover.  Mosco and Casas are back at it, with Mosco coming out on top
after a spinning leg lariat.  OH!  We almost missed a double
clothesline by Kickboxer and Crazzy!  El Mosco takes advantage of
this, and slams Crazzy down with a jack-knife power bomb for two.
Mosco just got clotheslined out of the ring by Casas, and...  TOPE!
Casas taking to the air in this matchup!  Both men down for a bit,
until they exchange punches before entering the ring.  El Mosco and
Crazzy are fighting now, and El Mosco, after a German suplex, goes for
the Northern Lights Suplex, but Crazzy takes care of that with a
backdrop.  Crazzy can't stop Mosco from connecting with a power bomb,
however.  Casas grabs Crazzy, and tosses him into the ropes...  Failed
clothesline by Casas...  Failed clothesline by Mosco...  DOUBLE
CLOTHESLINE!  Another one!  El Mosco grabs Casas, hits a spinebuster
slam, and gets two.  Crazzy follows up by clipping Casas' knee from
behind.  Mosco then puts Casas in an abdominal stretch, but Casas
manages to break free after 15 seconds.  Casas is the whipping boy at
the moment, as El Mosco takes him down with a dropkick, but gets
downed by behind by Mosco, who attempts - and misses - a Flying
Senton.  El Mosco recovers, and drops Mosco on his head with a running
power bomb, but only gets two!  Meanwhile, Crazzy's hammering away on
Kickboxer in the corner, with a fist to the stomach, an elbowsmash, a
kick to the midsection, another kick to the midsection, and a hard
right hand.  Kickboxer tries to counter, but Mosco's right there with
a dragon screw.  Mosco goes up top...  FLYING CROSS BODY PRESS!!!
Kickboxer felt all of that one!  Casas with a bodyslam on Kickboxer...
Mosco with the Flying Senton...  One...  two...  THREE!!!  Out goes
Kickboxer!

That partnership didn't last for long, as Mosco kicked Casas in the
midsection, and slammed him down hard with a power bomb!  El Mosco was
on the top rope going for Crazzy, but changed path in mid-flight and
hit Casas with a flying bodypress!  One...  two...  THREE!  Casas is
toast!

El Mosco, Super Crazzy and Mosco are left.  El Mosco wastes no time
with a rolling kick on Crazzy, which allows Mosco to hit him with a
senton for two.  Forearm by Mosco, who goes for a German suplex, but
Crazzy blocks the move.  Both men exchange chops and kicks, and out of
nowhere, Crazzy knocks down Mosco with a jumping side kick!  Crazzy
hits a ropeflip moonsault for the pin...  One...  two...  THREE!!!
It's just El Mosco and Crazzy now!

Crazzy opens up with some chops on El Mosco, then sets him up for a
screwdriver, but Mosco counters with a suplex.  Spinning leg lariat by
El Mosco, the a somersault splash...  TWO COUNT!!!  El Mosco whips
Crazzy into the ropes, but Crazzy's one step ahead of him...  ASAI
MOONSAULT!!!  One...  two...  NO!  Two count!  Crazzy manages to hit
El Mosco with a screwdriver!  This has to do it!  One...  two...  NO!
NO!  TWO COUNT!  El Mosco struggles to his feet!  He goes for an Asai
moonsault, but Crazzy catches him!  TOMBSTONE!  He's going for it...
El Mosco squirms out!  Crazzy kicks him in the midsection...  POWER
BOMB!  Does he have him?  One...  two...  THREE!!!  SUPER CRAZZY WINS!

No-Countout-No-DQ-5-Man Battle Royal:
Super Crazzy won a 5-man Battle Royal:
x Merced defeated Kickboxer after the Flying Senton in 0:12:46
x Mosco defeated N. Casas after a flying bodypress in 0:13:27
x Crazzy defeated Merced after a ropeflip moonsault in 0:15:02
x Crazzy defeated Mosco after a power bomb in 0:16:40
Rating: *** 1/4

After the match, all the challenges made last week were accepted, and
we have a new match for Verano De Escandalo - Super Crazzy vs. Mosco
De La Merced vs. El Mosco!  Hair vs. Mask vs. Hair!  First pinfall
wins it!  That match is going to be great!

MAIN EVENT: Canek, Cibernetico, Octagon, Perro Aguayo and Ultimo
Dragon vs. Abismo Negro (sub for Steve Corino), Blue Demon Jr., El
Texano, Pentagon and Pierroth Jr. - ONE FALL

Lots of people, including Cibernetico and Abismo, share glances before
the match.  Perro and Pierroth will start.  Lockup, Perro opens up
with two chops, and Pierroth retreats to his corner, begging off.
Facerake by Pierroth, then a quick chokehold.  Chop by Pierroth, and
Abismo comes in for the double team.  Perro's whipped into the
ropes...  DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE!  Good counter by Perro!  Pierroth goes
to the outside, but Perro's on his tail...  OH!  BULLDOG ON THE FLOOR!
Another good move by Perro!  Here comes El Texano and Pentagon,
stomping away on Perro right after the bulldog, then tossing him into
the ring.  Pierroth's waiting for him, but Dragon's in, and Pierroth
goes down thanks to a dropkick.  Double dropkick by the tecnicos on
Pierroth, but after Dragon leaves the ring, Perro gets a thumb in the
eye, and Pierroth takes advantage with a stomachbreaker for a two
count.  Power bomb attempt by Pierroth, but Canek breaks it up.
Pierroth tags in Abismo, just as Ciber was about to step into the
ring...  so Ciber stays.  Lariat by Pierroth as he leaves the ring on
Perro, and Abismo completes the combo with a German suplex...  One...
two...  Shoulder up!  Abismo with a suplex attempt...  blocked and
reversed by Perro, and Dragon's tagged in!  Double bodyslam on Abismo!
But El Texano just clotheslined Perro over the top rope...  Dragon's
whipped into the ropes, and hit with a double elbowsmash.  Abismo
looks pretty cocky, as he sets Dragon up for a snap suplex... but gets
taken down with a vertical suplex!  Dragon runs into the ropes, but
misses a shoulderblock, as Abismo takes him down with a senton for
two.  Dropkick by Abismo misses, but Dragon's headscissors submission
hold is blocked in return.  Finally, a snap suplex by Abismo, who
whips Dragon into the corner, then hits him with a charging axhandle
bodyblock.  Abismo starts to taunt the tecnicos (but not Ciber...) and
Dragon nails him with some punches from behind, then whips Abismo into
the ropes...  SPINNING LEG LARIAT!  Great move!  Meanwhile, on the
outside, Octagon and Pentagon have gotten into a brawl!  Pentagon goes
into the guardrail, as Octagon continues to pound away on him!  But
Demon Jr. just hit Octagon from behind!  Demon Jr. and Pentagon are
pounding away on Octagon now!  Back inside the ring, Dragon takes down
Abismo with an Asai moonsault, but only gets a two count.  Both men
trade chops in the ring, until Pierroth comes in and helps out Abismo
with a double back suplex.  Guess Pierroth's the legal man now.
Belly-to-belly suplex attempt that time by Pierroth, but Dragon breaks
it with some punches, and hits Pierroth with a power bomb!  One...
two...  KICKOUT!  Pierroth's on the top rope...  Dragon follows...
SUPERPLEX!  That should do it for Dragon, but he's going up top
again...  FLYING DROPKICK!  Down goes Pierroth!  Dragon still isn't
finished, as the brawl continues on the outside.  Swinging DDT by
Dragon...  One...  two...  THREE!  Did he get him?  NO!  Two count!
On the outside, we have Abismo and Perro, Ciber and Texano, Canek and
Demon Jr., and Octagon and Pentagon all fighting!  Abismo rams Perro's
face into the guardrail and jumps into the ring to switch partners.
Dragon tries to moonsault Pierroth, but Abismo moves him out of the
way!  Abismo picks up Dragon for a bodyslam, but Dragon rolls him up!
One...  two..  NO!  That was close!  Armdrag takedown by Dragon,
followed by a German suplex for a two count.  Pierroth's recovering in
the corner, as Dragon dropkicks Abismo over the top rope.  Dragon
turns around...  Boot to the stomach, and a power bomb!  Pierroth
finally leaves the ring, and Abismo comes in.  Abismo with a backdrop
on Dragon, then a flying somersault splash.  Abismo picks up Dragon...
and slaps him!  Twice!  Dragon's starting to recover...  knocks down
Abismo with a slap!  On the outside, Octagon and Pentagon continue to
brawl, while Cibernetico and El Texano are going at it as well.
Abismo goes off the ropes...  Texano whips Cibernetico into the ring
apron...  Oh, no!  Cibernetico tripped Abismo!  He looks shocked!
Abismo gets up and starts yelling at Ciber...  DRAGON SLEEPER!!!
Dragon's got it locked on...  but Abismo reaches the ropes!  Too close
that time.  Abismo's back up, and exits the ring, yelling at
Cibernetico about the trip!  Cibernetico maintains it was an accident,
but Abismo's shouting something...  He's accusing Cibernetico of being
a traitor?  Cibernetico's denying that, while Psicosis comes out to
break the two up.  Dragon was distracted by this...  LOW BLOW!!!
Demon Jr. with a low blow on Dragon!  Pierroth's in now...
PIERROTHBOMB!!!  That's it!  One...  two...  THREE!!!

Tradicion (El Texano and Pierroth Jr.), Blue Demon Jr., Pentagon and

Rating: *

And yes, there was a brawl after the match!  While Abismo and
Cibernetico continued to bicker, the tecnicos and rudos were going at
it!  As usual, officials came out to stop it, but not before Blue
Demon Jr. and Pentagon worked together to...  RIP OFF OCTAGON'S MASK!
Octagon was rolling around on the ground, as Demon Jr. held the mask
up high upon exiting!  Cibernetico and Abismo went to the back
together, having apparently stopped their arguing, while the remaining
tecnicos got a towel for Octagon to hide his face in, as they exited.
Things are heating up...

Notes:

- The main topic of concern, of course, is D-Day.  A normal house show
on the 21st, followed by the announcements of who's signed on with
AAA...  and who's walking.  AAA will make attempts to sign back
certain stars should the situation arise, but some will be free agents
on Saturday - so you may want to wait a little bit to see who's
available. :)

- Verano De Escandalo continues to shape up...  so far, we have:

Cibernetico (c) vs. Blue Demon Jr. - Mexican National Heavyweight
Title Match
Octagon vs. Pentagon - Grudge Match
Tzuki vs. Octagoncito vs. Pierrothito/Mini Abismo Negro - Mexican
National Minis Title Match (*)
Negro Casas vs. Gran Apache - 3 Round Boxing Match
El Mosco vs. Mosco De La Merced vs. Super Crazzy - Hair vs. Mask vs.
Hair Match

- And you're wondering why that (*) is next to the Pierrothito/Mini
Abismo match?  Well, that was supposed to happen tonight, but
Pierrothito no-showed.  So, the match has been moved to Saturday night
at the house show.  Winner's in that triangle match, and the loser...
isn't.  Simple.

- Ayako Hamada *was* offered a large sum of money by New Japan Pro
Wrestling for a possible move over there, but she decided to stay in
her home country, and re-signed with AAA.

- Gran Apache has been training for his boxing match coming up with
Negro Casas at Verano De Escandalo.  According to reports, he looks
pretty good.

- Steve Corino, after that beating by Abismo Negro, won't be at the
house show on Saturday.  He should be in attendance next week, from
Toronto, however.

- Miss Janeth vs. Kaori Nakayama for the Mexican National Women's
Title has been added to next week's card.

- Finally, all AAA will say at the present moment is that no matter
who the WCW President ends up being, AAA will be glad to deal with
them, if the need arises.  The vote shall take place in Scotland, at a
TNM-MP General Meeting.  Antonio Pena has sent head booker Colin
Mackinnon to represent AAA in the meeting, where a new WCW President
will be crowned.  Plus, as well, the traditional late night partying
and such.  (Don't remind me about last time...  I'll never look at
goats the same way after what... <unintelligible> ...did...  Made me
want to puke...  Better be some good stuff there this week, that's all
I'm saying about that. :) )
