*****************************************
It’s AAA, it’s live live live, and it’s right now now now!
There’s lots to get to tonight including a non title dream match, the possible attempted murder of a small man and of course a completely normal and uneventful contract signing.
There may also be clowns. But first:
The show kicked off with Dorian Roldan telling El Hijo Del Vikingo that he will have a match against El Hiji De Dr Wagner Jr for his Latin American Championship on May 30th, while Omos looked on. Then they said some stuff about family.
El Hijo Del Vikingo vs. Mini Vikingo
The term “blood feud” gets tossed around a lot, sometimes even in wrestling. Mini Vikingo and Regular Sized Vikingo have been embroiled in a bitter battle for weeks now. It started when Vikingo started hanging around with that no good Dorian Roldan and Omos. They picked on Mini Vikingo and after a loss, Vikingo rescinded Mini’s permission to use his name and likeness. Then Vikingo and Omos put him in the hospital. Not satisfied with making Mini’s mom cry, Vikingo went to the hospital and beat him up some more. Then Mini Vikingo interfered in Vikingo’s Rey De Reyes match for the AAA Mega Championship against Dirty Dom Mysterio and spoiled Vikingo’s chance to win the WWE Intercontinental Title from Penta. So this Battle of The Vikingos has built to tonights match, where Mini faces Regular Sized one-on-one.
Right off the top, Vikingo threw his cape over Mini and stomped him. He flattened Mini with a dropkick as the bell rang and stomped his chest in the corner. Vikingo brutalized Mini, throwing strikes and slams around the ring. Mini kicked out of every pin attempt though.
Vikingo fishhooked Mini in a modified camel clutch then sent him off the ropes, dropping him with a takedown into an ankle lock. Vikingo bounced Mini’s head off the mat until the ref made him stop.
Mini found some fight in him though, open hand slapping Vikingo. Vikingo hit him with a superkick, which staggered him against the ropes. Vikingo then dropkicked Mini to the outside. He sent Mini into the steel steps and then walked him up to the ramp where he suplexed him on the steel.
Vikingo then powerbombed Mini on the ramp, throwing him about ten feet towards the entrance. Vikingo pulled Mini back to the ring by the hair and went for a cover. The ref counted one, two and then Vikingo pulled Mini up to continue the assault.
Vikingo charged Mini in the corner, but Mini woke up and avoided it. He hit him with a headscissor, nearly getting a three count. Vikingo bailed from the ring and Mini took him out with a spinning leap over the top rope into a crucifix driver, spiking Vikingo on the floor and making a highlight reel moment that should be relplayed daily. It was honestly incredible.
Mini took control, clubbing and stomping Vikingo. He went for a springboard frog splash, but Vikingo got his knees up. Vikingo powerbombed Mini in the middle of the ring, but Mini somehow kicked out of the cover.
A frustrated Vikingo started kicking and punching Mini like a schoolyard brawl. He then went over and removed the pad from the second turnbuckle. Vikingo went to throw Mini into the exposed turnbuckle, but Mini countered with a drop toe hold and sent him face first into the steel.
Mini then scrambled up and landed a 450, but Vikingo kicked out, preventing the upset. Vikingo then threw Mini into the official, who was sent to the outside. Mini hit a hurricanrana and pinned Vikingo. The bell rang, but no one knew who rang the bell, if there was a count, or who won.
In the chaos, Vikingo clotheslined Mini and then hit a very scary urinagi from the top turnbuckle. He made the pin, but again, there was no one to count it. Vikingo rolled out of the ring clutching his shoulder and grabbed a chair.
Vikingo went to use the chair on Mini, but Dr Wagner Jr ran down and hit a Wagner Driver on Vikingo on the chair! Mini scrambled up and hit a, I kid you not, 630 onto Vikingo and the ref slid back in to count 1-2-3 in one of the biggest upsets in Lucha Libre history!
Match Result: Mini Vikingo defeated El Hijo Del Vikingo
After the match, Omos stomped down to the ring and took out Wagner Jr. He then lawn-darted Mini into the ringpost and rolled Wagner into the ring. He chopped and kicked him and was about to powerbomb him when Glaneno Del Mal (Wagner’s brother) ran in with a chair! He nailed Omos and the two chased him out of the ring.
I don’t mean to be a hater, but the first 23 minutes of this episode of AAA were more exciting than both nights of this year’s Wrestlemania combined. Absolutely fantastic match, storytelling and even then run-in was fun and made sense. AAA ¡Para toda la vida!
Non-Title Match: AAA World Cruiserweight Champion Laredo Kid vs. Rey Fenix
If you joined us last week, you’ll remember Laredo Kid losing a non-title-champion-vs-champion match to El Hijo de Dr Wagner Jr abd neing pretty salty about it. After the match, Fenix tried to cheer him up, but Laredo blew him off and angrily stomped away, leaving Fenix staring after him and thoughtfully stroking his chin. That’s wrestling code for “I think I want to fight that guy who I was just trying to cheer up next week…” So here we are!
Laredo tried to keep Fenix off his feet in the opening minutes, but Fenix was able to dodge and kip up everything thrown at him. The pace picked up with neither one gaining control, each countering the other until Laredo bailed from the ring to collect himself. Fenix went off the ropes to dive, but Laredo was already back in the ring and cut him off with a spear.
Laredo went back to basics, throwing punches and slaps at Fenix. He dropkicked him in the head, but Fenix kicked out at two. Fenix tried a spin kick, but Laredo countered it into a Michinoku driver. Laredo went up top and landed a perfect crossbody splash. Fenix kicked out of the cover at two.
Fenix started a comeback with a back elbow and superkick. He punted Laredo’s head off the top rope, but Laredo kicked out of the cover. Fenix insiguir’ed Laredo to the outside and then leapt off the apron for a hurricanrana.
Fenix threw Laredo back into the ring and hit a moonsault from the top turnbuckle. Another kickout at two though for Laredo. Fenix continued with the kicks to the head, setting up Laredo for a Mexican Muscle Buster.
Laredo got out of hit though and dropped Fenix with a hard right hand and then a moonsault from the bottom rope. He went for a second one, but Fenix moved. No bother because Laredo hit him with a Mexican Destroyer DDT. Fenix somehow kicked out at ONE though!
Laredo set up Fenix, but Fenix exploded out of nowhere with a cutter. They started trading chops, until Fenix sent Laredo into the corner. He charged him but got caught by another right from Laredo. Laredo went up top, but Fenix climbed the ladder and hit an uppercut.
He grabbed Laredo and nailed him with a Mexican Muscle buster. Fenix made the cover and the ref counted three to give him the victory.
Match Result: Rey Fenix defeated Laredo Kid
Another absolutely stellar match. Fenix should be in line for a shot at Laredo’s Crusierweight Title asap. Hey, maybe on May 30th? The match was so good that the crowd started throwing coins into the ring, which is a sign of great respect in Lucha Libre.
Next, a video package aired recapping all the clown drama in the Psycho Circus lately. Someone took out Panic Clown and Dave The Clown and Psycho Clown began to suspect his tag team partner Pagano after Pagano was late to help Psycho in a match against the War Raiders. They argued and Pagano stormed off, but Psycho turned the corner and found an unconscious Murder Clown, a telltale bandanna left on his chest. A bandanna belonging to none other than Pagano! Next week, Psycho and Pagano will meet face-to-face to get to the bottom of this and I can almost guarantee that it will be awesome. Clown-level awesome.
It was also announced that next week, La Catalina will make her in-ring AAA debut.
Real El Grande Americano and Original El Grande Americano Contract Signing for Noche de los Grandes
As anyone who’s ever seen wrestling knows, the most dangerous moment in any competitor’s career is when they must face their opponent one-on-one in the ring and do the paperwork to make their match official. I’ve often wondered if other matches on the card had to go through this same paperwork and they just don’t make a big deal out of it, or if these contracts are only for big-time matches. It seems like we should have more of these segments and yet, I’d really be happy with less of them, in spite of how much WWE loves them.
Anyway, to bring you up to speed on the El Grande Americano Civil War, the “Real” El Grande Americano was living high on the hog, getting over huge in both WWE and AAA. Then, the “OG” El Grande Americano returned at the Royal Rumble in January. They both won spots in the finals of Rey De Reyes with Real Americano winning the whole darn thing and getting the bigass sword. OG Americano was not happy about this and they interfered in each others business to the point it became comical. Now, Real Americano has challenged OG Americano to a Mask-vs-Mask Match on May 30th to settle things once and for all. But first, the paperwork!
Both Americanos calmly walked to the ring. Then they signed the paper, shook hands and that was it. See you May 30th!
Just kidding!
The ring was filled with Security, ring announcers and Dorian Roldan as the Americanos made their entrances. It felt kinda pointless, as everyone knows there is noone more ineffective than a security guard on a WWE payroll. Regardless, they made it to the ring.
Roldan announced that Mask-vs-Mask is one of the most important matches in Lucha Libre. He asked the Americanos to sign the contract. OG Americano then pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket and handed it to Roldan.
Roldan read it, saying it was a letter from OG’s attorney. It said that OG Americano would not face Real Americano unless the following condition was met:
No Physical altercations from now until May 30th. If this was breached, then the attacking wrestler would automatically lose their mask.
Real Americano agreed and signed the addendum to the the match contract.
Roldan then read that there was one more condition: OG would not participate in the match if the current ring announcer was not removed from AAA.
This greatly upset Real Americano and was clearly an attempt to draw him into a fight. The ring announcer (who’s name I missed, apologies), left and both Americano’s signed the match contract.
OG Americano left the ring and then suddenly the Creed Brothers showed up and drove Real Americano through the table in the ring! They covered him with the American Flag, but Rayo and Bravo Americano arrived to run them off and even the odds.
So, until the match on the 30th of May, the Americanos (Real and OG) cannot touch each other or they will automatically lose their match.
The show ended with an Americano staredown.
I am not a fan of contract signings, but as they go, this was a pretty good one. The stipulations added will make the next couple of weeks really interesting! Also, if they don’t re-name the Creeds Brutus Americano and Julius Americano, they are missing out.
Another great episode of AAA! ¡Esto es lucha libre!
