Fresh off of Vengeance Day, we head to Mexico for the last
AAA show before Rey De Reyes! Before we get into the action
though, I want to send genuine best wishes to AAA, WCW and
WWE Legend Konnan, who’s facing some serious health
problems. Que se mejore, señor!
The show started with a recap of last week’s business with
the duelling Grande Americanos that led to Greende Americano
qualifying for Rey De Reyes next week.
Dinámico vs. El Hijo del Vikingo
This match was made last week as a “warm up” match for
Vikingo before his match next week with Dominick Mysterio
for the AAA Mega Championship.
The match was pretty much all Vikingo. Dinamico was able to
hold his own in the first part, but soon Vikingo took over,
hitting lots of power moves and a double knee from the top
rope.
Vikingo started taking his time, setting Dinamico on the
middle rope to kick him in the back of the neck, then hit a
double stomp from the top rope. He covered him, but Dinamico
kicked out at two.
Dinamico came back with some big kicks that allowed him to
hit a cutter on Vikingo. Vikingo rolled to the outside, but
Dinamico leapt form the top rope onto him. He threw Vikingo
back into the ring and tried a springboard sunset flip, but
Vikingo countered it into a spiked slam.
Vikingo started throwing fists and got Dinamico into an
electric chair position that he moved into a modified suplex
for a two count. Dinamico blocked an arm drag, but Vikingo
threw a lariat that knocked him to the mat.
Vikingo picked up Dinamico and threw him into the
turnbuckles. He hit a 630 splash and made the pin, picking
up the victory on his way to Rey De Reyes.
Match Result: El Hijo del Vikingo defeated Dinámico
-Suddenly, AAA Mega Champion Dominick Mysterio appeared on
the screen. He congratulated Vikingo on his victory tonight,
but he will show him what it means to be a real champion at
Rey De Reyes. As the segment ended, Vikingo looked a little
worried.
-AAA Women’s Champion Flammer appeared on screen next,
issuing an open challenge for her title to not the women of
AAA, but the women of WWE at Rey De Reyes.
Rey de Reyes Tournament Qualifying Match: Mr. Iguana vs.
Santos Escobar vs. Psycho Clown vs. Abismo Negro
Off of the bell, Iguana and Escobar let Psycho and Negro
take each other own. Negro turned his attention to Iguana,
until Psycho clown took him out. Clown hit a hurricanrana,
and Iguana came back with a dive over the ropes to take out
Escobar.
Iguana and Clown faced off in the ring, but Escobar put a
stop to it, sending Iguana out of the ring. Escobar went for
a cover, but Negro broke it up and the two slugged it out in
the middle of the ring. Negro sent Escobar to the floor with
a clothesline and Iguana took him out with an Iguanarana.
Iguana grabbed his puppet and Clown gave her a gentle pat.
He then dragged Iguana to the corner where ht leapt off the
ring post onto Negro on the outside. Clown followed with a
leap of his own.
Clown and Iguana got back in the ring and Iguana hit an
insiguri. He went for a diving headbutt, but Clown caught
him and deposited him in the corner. Iguana jumped, but
Clown caught him in a powerslam. Negro broke up the
subsequent pin.
Negro hit a gutbuster on Clown, but couldn’t get a three
count. Negro went for a piledriver, but El Fiscal showed up
and jumped in the ring to fight Negro. He clotheslined him
over the ropes and they fought to the barricades and up into
the crowd.
With the 4-way now a 3-way, Escobar hit a meteora on Clown
in the corner. Clown came back with a superkick and then a
Psycho Driver. He dropped the straps and went up to the top
turnbuckle. Suddenly, The War Raiders (#1 Contenders to
Clown and Pagano’s tag titles) showed up and pulled him off
the ropes.
They laid a beating into him until Clown’s partner Pagano
arrived with a Kendo stick and drive them off. Iguana took
advantage of the chaos and hit a hurricanrana on Escobar.
Escobar raked the eyes of Iguana and dropped him with a
Hands of Destiny. Escobar pinned Iguana and solidified his
spot in the Rey De Reyes finals!
Match Result: Santos Escobar defeated Mr. Iguana, Psycho
Clown and Abismo Negro
-After the match, Psycho Clown and Pagano walked to the
back, but noticed that Murder Clown was missing! First Dave,
then Panic Clown, now Murder Clown! Something is up! The
sound of someone in the next room was heard, and they kicked
in the door, only to find Murder Clown! Dropping a deuce!
Whew. And Ew.
La Parka vs. The “Original” El Grande Americano
So, just to remind everyone, to keep things straight, I
refer to the “Original” El Grande Americano as “OG” and the
other El Grande Americano as ‘Greende Americano.’ Not that
it’s likely that will come up in this match or anything.
La Parka is crazy popular and I am so happy to be able to
say that. He got a huge ovation as he entered the match.
They locked up off the top, with OG sending La Parka into
the corner. He went for a chop, but La Parka danced out of
it. They locked up again with la Parka landing a shoulder
tackle. OG took La Parka to the mat and they rolled through
some pinning combinations.
La Parka started pulling OG around with arm drags, leading
to a reset. OG rolled out of the ring, giving La Parka some
room to dance. The crowd HATED OG and screamed at him over
the barricade. OG got back into the ring and sent La Parka
to the corner, chopping and stomping him.
La Parka found himself in an ankle lock in the middle of the
ring, but managed to counter it into a pin attempt. La Parka
scooped up OG for a backbreaker and sent him to the outside.
OG got back in, but fell victim to an insiguri off the
apron. He dodged La Parka jumping at him and then dropped La
Parka on a table in a shinbreaker.
OG threw La Parka into the ring steps then back into the
ring ring. He hit a dragon screw takedown and wrapped La
Parka’s leg around the ring post, smashing his knee. OG
dragged La Parka to the middle of the ring and continued
working the knee.
OG grapevined La Parka’s leg, bending it horribly. La Parka
managed a sunset flip, but OG still had ahold of things and
sent him to the corner. He tried a chop, but La Parka
dodged. He came back with another Dragon screw take down
though.
La Parka went to the outside to regroup, but his attempt to
jump back in turned into a northern lights suplex instead.
OG started messing with La Parka’s mask, but the Ref put a
stop to it. OG went for a suplex, but La Parka countered it
and whipped him into the corner.
They two traded blows until La Parka hit a drop kick and
facebuster. He hit a second one, but clearly La Parka’s knee
was not at 100%. He tried a bridge suplex, but OG kicked out
at two.
OG slid over into a backslide, but La Parka kicked out at
two. OG hit a liger kick and then a fisherman brainbuster,
but La Parka just wouldn’t give in. OG went up to the top
turnbuckle, but La Parka joined him and nailed a Spanish
Fly. He went for the cover, but OG kicked out.
The two exchanged rolling pin attempts until OG got the
ankle lock on. La Parka kicked out and went for a bone
breaker, but OG turned his mask backwards and hit a bridging
German suplex to pick up the victory.
Match Result: The “Original” El Grande Americano defeated La
Parka
After the match, Santos Escobar came out, as did Greende
Americano and that meant all four competitors in the Rey de
Reyes finals were on the stage. Rey de Reyes starts next
week! Be there, or be, well, somewhere else. I’m not a cop.
