Dragon Lee & Dralistico defeated Arez & Willie Mack, Myzteziz Jr. & Komander, and Latigo & Toxin. Four-way tag bout to determine the #1 contenders. Winners earn a future shot at AAA tag champions FTR. Everyone was sizing up to start the match then a sexy song played for Mack to strut his dance moves. Rudos dropkicked Mack to end the routine. This bout was a showcase of athletic maneuvers with ropewalking, springboarding, 450 splashes, moonsaults, shooting star presses, tornillos, and tijeras. Down the stretch, Kommander landed a shooting star press outside onto bodies below. Dragon Lee and Dralistico seized the moment with a flurry of offense on Toxin to win. German suplex by Dragon Lee, Mexican Destroyer by Dralistico, and a double underhook piledriver by Dralistico to win.
After the match, Dr. Simi stuffed dolls fell from the sky onto Mack. The pharmacy mascot challenged Mack to a dance-off. Pelvic thrusts and hip swivels aplenty.
AAA Reina de Reinas Championship: Taya Valkyrie retained against Kamille. AAA champion versus NWA champion. Only the AAA gold was on the line. Arez was the second for Taya, and Flammer was the second for Kamille. No DQ in effect. High spots were a torture rack powerbomb from Kamille, a superplex from Kamille, and a cutter from Taya off the apron onto a table outside. When Taya had momentum toward the end, Flammer created a distraction. When Kamille had the upper hand, Arez created a distraction to land a suicide dive on Flammer. Kamille leaped for a flying crossbody onto Taya. La Wera Loca rolled through the impact for an STF submission to win. Kamille tapped out.
Konnan was proud to be in the main event of the first Triplemania. He’s always tried to bring order to AAA. Cibernetico interrupted with the Vipers by his side. He called Konnan an infection to AAA. Los Vipers jumped Konnan from behind.
John Morrison, Brian Cage, & Sam Adonis defeated Sanson, Cuatrero, & Forastero (c) and Psycho Clown, Laredo Kid, & Bandido. The AAA Trios Championship was on the line, but the stipulation stated that the champs must be pinned to lose the belts. Morrison received a live musical entrance for his Johnny Caballero character. In the end, he kicked Laredo Kid in the cojones behind the referee’s back to win. Since the champs were not pinned, the titles did not change hands.
Arturo “Rudo” Rivera and Blue Demon were inducted posthumously into the AAA Hall of Fame.
Hair vs. Hair: Pagano defeated Cibernetico. Falls count anywhere rules. Cibernetico was joined by the Vipers for a 4-on-1 advantage against Pagano. Charly Manson ran out to help Pagano. In the skirmish, Pagano accidentally clobbered the referee with a light tube. Play Vampiro’s music! Vampiro entered as the backup referee. Pagano hit a piledriver on thumbtacks. 1, 2, Cibernetico kicked out. The Main Man rallied for a chokeslam onto a barbed wire chair and a second chokeslam onto tacks. The action veered onto the stage. Konnan arrived to help fend off the Vipers. Pagano and Cibernetico climbed a ladder with a table set up below. The table was a swerve. Pagano lifted Cibernetico for an Air Raid Crash in the opposite direction crashing through the stage. Vampiro made a three count to determine a winner, but we couldn’t see who was on top until Pagano stood up out of the hole. Cibernetico was taken backstage on a stretcher. Pagano took his bounty in the training room to cut Cibernetico’s hair. Respect from both afterward.
AAA Megacampeonato: Hijo del Vikingo retained against Fenix. Papa Vikingo was Hijo’s second. Arez backed Fenix. War of high-flying attrition with epic kick-outs for drama. Vikingo ran down the ramp to step up over the ropes for a 630 senton. Kick out. Vikingo landed a regular 630 senton. Kick out. Fenix hit a fire driver. Kick out. Fenix hit a second fire driver. Kick out. Vikingo countered on the turnbuckles for a super reverse rana. Kick out. Vikingo closed with an inverted 450 splash to win. Fenix showed respect to the victor.
Ruleta de la Muerte Mask vs. Mask Final: Pentagon Jr. defeated Villano IV. Arez was the second for Pentagon. I believe Villano V was the second for Villano IV. Rugged brawling style of fight. Controversy erupted when Pentagon locked in a torture rack. Villano allegedly tapped out, however, referee Marty Elias missed out. Penta thought he won, but the fight continued. Later, Villano trapped Pentagon in a cruceta knee crank. Penta clearly tapped out, but the referee missed it again. Villano thought he won. The fight continued. In the end, Penta gained the upper hand to punt Villano in the head. Penta went for the winning pin after his signature armbreaker.
Villano IV removed his mask. His name is Tomas Diaz Mendoza. Villano IV is 57 years old with 42 years as a luchador.
