One nice way to look at these
dark matches is that AAA's grooming the
youngsters of the future.
Or something like that. In any event, Geo
pins both Thunderbird and
Fugaz with the Power Bomb for the rudo
victory.
Welcome to AAA TV, back in
Mexico City, and in our new Friday night
time slot! Before
the night even starts, we have a huge announcement
to make. Over the
next few weeks, AAA will be running the first ever
Caged Fury Tournament, with
an estimated cash purse of $100,000
(American) for the winner!
Here's how the tournament will work.
- Each match takes place
in a cage.
- All matches are singles
matches, set for one fall.
- Anything goes in the cage,
within reason - low blows and piledrivers
are grounds for instant
disqualification by the referee.
- The only ways to win the
match are either by submission, or by
referee's decision.
Now, the 8 winners of the
First Round advance to the Second Round. As
for the 8 losers...
They're in trouble. Why? Because they move into
a loser-advances tournament,
with the "winner" losing his mask or
hair! Here are the
brackets for the two groups of the tournament:
Group 1:
Ultimo
Dragon vs. Pierroth Jr.
Discovery
vs. Histeria
Brazo
De Oro vs. Binary
Pentagon
vs. Abismo Negro
Group 2:
Magnum
Tokyo vs. Aguila
Electro
Shock vs. May Flowers
Perro
Aguayo vs. Sangre Chicana
Heavy
Metal vs. Gran Apache
Tonight, we'll see Discovery
take on Histeria, and Ultimo Dragon will
face Pierroth Jr.!
Two huge matches there. As well, Electro Shock
will face May Flowers at
this week's house show. A big show, as we
head to the ring for action!
MATCH #1: La Parkita,
Mini Discovery and Pikachu vs. Mewtwo (AAA
Debut), Mini
Abismo Negro and Mini Psicosis - 2/3 FALL MATCH
Yes, you read that correctly.
Before the match, the new AAA mini
introduced himself as Mewtwo,
and basically said that he had two goals
in AAA - To win the Mexican
National Minis Title, and to make
Pikachu's life a living
hell. OK...
First fall: La Parkita
and Mini Psic start off. Parkita goes for a
handshake, but Mini Psic
clobbers him with a clothesline instead!
Some quick punches by Mini
Psic, who seems to have the upper hand
until Parkita takes him
down with spinning headscissors. Mexican
armdrag takedown by Parkita,
who decides to do a Parka Dance (TM) at
this point. Mini Psic
springs up, takes down Parkita with a legsweep,
then locks on a scorpion
deathlock. Parkita reaches the ropes after a
few seconds, but then gets
taken down with a Samoan Drop for a two
count. Dropkick by
Mini Psic, followed by another power bomb for two.
Mini Psic keeps the momentum
going with a spinning leg lariat on
Parkita, followed by a flying
dropkick. Mini Psic motions to the
corner... AND TAGS
IN MEWTWO! Mewtwo is now making his official AAA
debut! Armbar submission
by Mewtwo, and Parkita's trapped! Mewtwo
relinquishes the hold, then
hits a senton... TWO COUNT! Rana by
Mewtwo... TWO COUNT!
Mewtwo picks La Parkita up... MICHINOKU
DRIVER!!! WOW!
This could be it... HUH? Mewtwo tagged Mini Abismo
into the ring! Mini
Abismo doesn't look too happy about that! While
Mini Abismo and Mewtwo argue...
PARKITA TAGS IN PIKACHU! Here we go!
Mini Abismo goes straight
for the top rope, but Pikachu catches him...
BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPERPLEX!!!
WHOA! Pikachu hits a spin kick on Mini
Abismo, then springs off
the ropes... PIKA-SAULT! The cover...
One... two...
THREE!!! TECNICOS TAKE THE FIRST FALL!!!
Second fall: Mini Abismo
boots Pikachu in the midsection right away,
and goes for a power bomb,
but Pikachu counters with a headscissor
takedown. A pair of
forearms by Pikachu, followed by a series of
chops in the corner.
Pikachu whips Mini Abismo into the ropes, but
gets taken down with a flying
bodypress for a two count! Mini
Abismo... TAGS IN
MEWTWO! Now Mewtwo doesn't look too impressed, and
runs into the ring...
CLOTHESLINE BY PIKACHU! Spinning headscissors
by Pikachu follows that,
followed by a flying armdrag. Pikachu then
misses a shoulderblock,
and Mewtwo takes him down with a single-leg
takedown. Tag to Mini
Psic. Mini Psic goes up top... MISSES THE
FLYING LEGDROP! He
rolls outside, and Pikachu's up... PLANCHA TO THE
OUTSIDE! WOW!
Both men make it back inside, and Pikachu tags in La
Parkita, but Mini Psic takes
Pikachu down with a Hotshot right after
the tag! La Parkita
jumps up onto Mini Psic's shoulders... VICTORY
ROLL! One...
two... NO! Two count! Pikachu gets back up, and they
hit Mini Psic with a double
dropkick! Another Victory Roll attempt by
La Parkita... MINI
PSIC REVERSES THE PIN ATTEMPT! One... two...

tosses La Parkita into the ropes...
FRANKENSTEINER! Mini
Psic missed a clothesline, and got drilled with
the Frankensteiner!

MATCH #4: Magnum
Tokyo and Octagon vs. Abismo Negro and Blue Demon Jr.
- ONE FALL
Before the match, Blue Demon
Jr. grabs the microphone, and starts to
taunt Tokyo, saying that
his mentor was beaten "by the best" at Noche
del Terror, and tonight,
Tokyo's going to get creamed "like the rest".
Tokyo then grabs the microphone,
and reminds Demon Jr. that he still
owes him a UWA Junior Heavyweight
Title shot! Demon Jr. acts
flustered for a second,
then charges Tokyo, but gets sent over the top
rope with a backdrop!
The match is on!
Tokyo connects with a swinging
neckbreaker on Abismo Negro, then hits
a side suplex. Standing
moonsault by Tokyo, which gets him a two
count. Abismo then
gets planted with a DDT, which also gets two. Is
this the same Abismo Negro
who unmasked Corazon De Leon as Chris
Jericho at Noche del Terror?
After a quick dance, Tokyo goes for a
springboard dropkick...
BUT MISSES! The tag is made to Demon Jr.,
who stomps away on Tokyo
a few times, then hits a shoulderblock.
Demon Jr. then rolls up
Tokyo for two. Powerslam by Demon Jr.,
followed by a senton for
two. Demon Jr. tosses Tokyo into the ropes,
and wants him to tag Octagon
in! Tokyo complies, and Demon Jr. gets
tossed around the ring with
a series of hiptosses, followed by a
clothesline. Back
suplex by Octagon gets two. Finally, Demon Jr.
gets the advantage with
an eye gouge, then hits a power bomb for a two
count. And now...
WHAT THE HELL IS DEMON JR. DOING? He wants
Octagon to tag Tokyo in!
Octagon does, of course, and Tokyo hits
Demon Jr. with a vertical
suplex. Tokyo goes into the ropes, but
Abismo holds down the top
rope. So, of course, Tokyo goes tumbling to
the outside. While
Abismo and Octagon brawl, Demon Jr. rams Tokyo's
head into the guardrail,
then tosses him into the ringsteps!
Frankensteiner by Demon
Jr. on Tokyo as soon as they get back into the
ring, which gets a two count.
Some kicks by Demon Jr., followed by
spinning headscissors.
Abismo then runs in, and clocks Tokyo with a
clothesline! Demon
Jr. and Abismo give each other a high-five... BUT
TOKYO TAGGED OCTAGON!
Demon Jr. didn't see it! Flying cross body
press by Octagon!
One... two... SHOULDER UP! Octagon hits an
armdrag takedown, followed
by a bodyslam! And... PENTAGON'S RUNNING

and he signals for the Octaclutch...

OUTSIDE! Abismo and
Pentagon are double-teaming Octagon on the
outside, and Demon Jr.'s
distracting the ref! Demon Jr. starts
laughing at Octagon, but
doesn't notice Magnum Tokyo coming into the
ring... VIAGRA DRIVER!!!
OUT OF NOWHERE! Demon Jr. is down!

but Tokyo nails him with a Hotshot!

hand on Abismo! Tokyo springs to the top
rope... AV STAR PRESS

that next week, Magnum Tokyo will take on
Blue Demon Jr. in the return
bout for the UWA Junior Heavyweight
Title! That one will
be great, I can assure you that! BTW, Abismo,
Pentagon and Demon Jr. all
left the ring together, surprisingly.

100%! PIERROTH STOMPS
ON THE CHAIR! DRAGON IS SCREAMING IN PAIN!

away on the chair, and Dragon is wailing
like a banshee! Pierroth's
inviting the other members of Tradicion to

Pierroth and Tradicion are
leaving ringside, but... ANTONIO PENA'S
OUT! And he has the
microphone!
"Pierroth... I've had
it with you! I've been pretty lenient with you
so far, but this is the
last straw! As of this moment, you are
suspended INDEFINITELY from
wrestling in AAA!"
Pierroth looks shocked!
Pierroth talks to Tradicion, then grabs the
microphone from Pena...
"Pena... I'll save you the trouble. I QUIT! JAJAJA!"
Pena looks shocked...
PIERROTH BOOTS PENA IN THE MIDSECTION! Oh, no!
PIERROTHBOMB! PIERROTHBOMB
ON PENA! PENA IS OUT COLD!!! Pierroth
flips off the fans, and
runs out with Tradicion! The fans are
outraged! Wrestlers
run out from the back, as a few check on Pena...
But Dragon doesn't look
like he's in good shape at all. Magnum Tokyo,
Mr. Niebla, Aguila, Octagon
and Negro Casas are all out there,
checking on Dragon, as the
EMT's come to the ring. With that, the
show fades to black...
