After the match they both shake hands. Striker and Vampiro hype the “Grave Consequences” match as we go to a break.

My View: Another great match between these two. They continue to come up with new things to make the match fresh and more interesting than the one before it. Vampiro made a comment about the Lucha fans actually liking the product; I could only take that as a shot at WWE.

Back from the break we see a video hyping Konnans revenge, this video revolves around the game of chess. At the end of the video we see he was talking to Puma the whole time while playing chess.

My View: This video was not as cheesy as it sound it was well done.

Back in the ring the 3-on-1 elimination match is next. Melissa Santos introduces The Crew which is already in the ring. Big Ryck comes out next; he is wearing the eye patch and the cigar is in his mouth.

Big Ryck hits a double suplex on Cisco and Cortez. Ryck uses the keno stick to execute a clothesline on Cortez and gets the pin for the elimination. Now it’s just Ryck and Cisco and Cisco retreats up the stairs. Sexy Star comes out and kicks him down the stairs and throws Cisco in the ring. Ryck punches Cisco in the eye then sets up a chair. Cisco is busted open as Ryck works on the eye of Cisco. Ryck power bombs Cisco thru the chair and gets the pin for the win.

Winner: Big Ryck

Striker hypes the “Grave Consequences” match which is next as we go to a break.

My View: This match was ok it was a straight beat down of the Crew to show the dominance of Big Ryck.

Back from the break Striker announces that next week Alberto El Patron will defend his AAA Championship against Texano in a “Bull Rope” match. They also announce that #1 contender Cage will face the Champion Prince Puma in a “Boyle Heights” street fight.

We go to the ring where Melissa Santos explains the rules of the match. The only way to win is to place your opponent in a casket and slam it shut. We see several people walk the casket to the ring; they are wearing the makeup of the dead. The first man out is Mil Muertes with the sacred rock as we go to a break.

After the match the precession of death comes out to wheel the casket off. We go off the air with Fenix celebrating in the ring.

My View: all I can say about this match is “WOW” and please watch it for yourself.

Overall Show: Another great show and next week is going to be just as good.They need to try and get another hour because they could easily fill it. This is without a doubt the best wrestling show on television that is filmed for original programming. Thanks for following along see you next time in the Temple.
