Pierroth Jr., Tarzan Boy, & Hector Garza vs Shocker, Negro Casas, & Hijo Del Perro Aquayo.

1st Fall: During the intros Vampiro came out on crutches and bald, Pierroth tries to make peace with him, but Vampiro just pushed him away. The rudo beat down begins right away. Vampiro leaves, Casas was mocking his limp, when Tarzan attacked Casas from behind. Garza low blowed Shocker, the ref didn't see it. From outside the ring, Pierroth's female trooper La Nazi grabbed Perro Jr.'s crotch. Not hit, grabbed. Tarzan and Hector team up to give Shocker a double team power bomb and submit him together to one-legged Boston crabs each to win this fall. Outside Pierroth and La Nazi are double teaming Perrito, and La Nazi gives him a wicked looking low blow kick.

2nd Fall: Hector kicks Casas while the others hold him, but Shocker signals the comeback, by saving him. Perro does his senton to La Nazi outside. Shocker is busted open, but he and Hector but on a good show. Shocker submits Hector to a version of a Indian Deathlock. Casas was working on Tarzan when Perro came up and did a majistral cradle and pinned him. Casas was irked.

3rd Fall: The action swings back and forth for a while. Hector tries his moonsault outside to Shocker but he moved and he connected with Tarzan. Shocker topes him. Perro was going to do his double foot stomp move, when Casas came in and did the move first and pinned Pierroth for the win. Perro was pissed.
And that ended CMLL.

AAA:

Juventud Guerrera, Charly Manson, & Mr. Aquila vs Electroshock, Zorro, & Intocable.
1 Fall: This is the same match they ran last week, not going to go over it again. Juvie and Co. win in the rerun also.

Antonio Pena at some kind of news conference saying they are a worldwide company and they are the best lucha libre company in the world.

They played a new intro.

They showed brief footage from a mixed 4 person tag from Japan, with Japanese commentary.

Footage from a parade with the AAA guys going by on a big bus. And intermixing with the crowd but a very small crowd. Then the luchadors both tecnico and rudo are seen praying at a church. Strange seeing guys like Pirata Morgan, Cibernetico, & Juventud Guerrera on thier knees praying.

Cibernetico is asked if he prayed for help in winning his mask vs mask with La Park at triplemania 12. He said no, Parka is the one who will need help, not him.

A fight breaks out in the parking lot, Cibernetico, Abismo Negro, & Chessman are beating up on La Parka. When Gran Apache comes in for the save. It ends there.

This show played like a Sunday Night Heat show that precedes a WWE PPV. They talked and talked and talked. About Triplemania 12.

Back in an arena, Pirata Morgan is saying his group is the original and the real Infernales.

Amazingly they address the Hector Garza situation. They said that yes, he did show up at Arena Mexico recently. But he still has a contract with AAA, and they are working to come to some kind of agreement with him.

And that wrapped up AAA and this week's show. Have a happy and safe Memorial Day. I can be reached at blue_demon2003@yahoo.com
