Lady Shani suffers potential injury in opener
The opening match was marred by some type of injury to Lady Shani, which removed her from the match immediately. It was not apparent what happened as she was exchanging covers with Adelicious, and then Adelicious did a cartwheel and grazed past Shani, who reached for her eye or face and just went down. It was hard to see if there was any contact, but it was not obvious what happened to her. Shani rolled out of the ring and never returned. Therefore, Adelicious could not tag in.
Mascarita Sagrada did his routine, working with Jack Cartwheel with the size discrepancy and then having Abismo Negro base for him flying head scissors and ‘ranas. Cartwheel went for a twisting press off the top, missed his target, and landed on his partner. Adelicious executed a high cross to the floor on Cartwheel and Abismo for her lone spot.
Mini Vikingo hit a tope con giro and then pinned Mini Abismo Negro Jr. with a shooting star press.
The match was thrown off due to the Lady Shani incident, and it seemed like the remaining members had to piece together a tag match.
Zuffa Boxing’s Cain Sandoval and comedian Gabriel Iglesias were shown in the crowd.
Los Americanos survive elimination match
This was an elimination rules and therefore, three falls across the allotted time. It really picked up for the final fall involving Fraxiom and Los Americanos.
Joaquin Wilde and Cruz del Toro are teasing a breakup as Wilde was distracted using his hairspray, and a miscommunication spot led to their removal from the match. Del Toro landed a coast-to-coast dropkick on Frazer, but Axiom saved. Wilde attempted to use the hairspray but sprayed into Del Toro’s eyes by mistake, which led to Axiom and Frazer hitting their finisher with Axiom off the top with a missile dropkick. Del Toro walked to the back with Wilde following an argument.
The Tokyo Bad Boys took over in the second fall and saw Takuma (formerly Nobu San) do a step-up to the top rope and a moonsault to the floor. Bravo lifted Takuma for an airplane spin and simultaneously delivered the Giant Swing to Kento, and that was super impressive from a strength and coordination perspective. Fraxiom hit the same missile dropkick into side Russian leg sweep combo, and Axiom pinned Takuma.
The last fall had about seven minutes and elevated this match to the next level. Los Americanos and Fraxiom are the most under-utilized teams in the world. Axiom hit a moonsault into a DDT, which Graves was quick to attach to Rey Mysterio and Eddy Guerrero’s famous match at Halloween Havoc in the same building twenty-nine years ago. Fraxiom went for their finisher again, but this time, Axiom missed and nailed Frazer, which was a great spot as you’d seen them eliminate the last two teams with it. Bravo & Rayo hit a top rope ‘rana and splash combo for a big near-fall. Los Americanos took control of Frazer with Rayo snapping his fingers and Bravo landing a diving headbutt into a side Russian leg sweep for the win.
The two teams shook hands after the match, and the last portion of this was excellent.
