Volador Jr. vs. Prince Devitt- NWA Middleweight Championship
CMLL on Televisa 2012
-Some good early sequences to start the match. Both hits their big moves and scored their respective fall pretty early but it kept the crowd on their toes so it worked; I liked the summersault plancha followed with the double stop/Bloody Sunday combination which was a nice sequence for his fall. Some more nice exchanges follow and Devitt’s all like WTF to the crowd lol. Back in the ring where Volador hits a sick catch powerbomb on an in-flight Devitt. Nice counter from Devitt rolling into a modified camel clutch, but Volador not to be shown up rolls Devitt into a beautiful cross-legged heel hook. Some great near falls and lots of drama down the ending stretch and the finish was fantastic; I was all like SWERVE lol. Overall, really good match and despite Devitt being built up to this match as technico, the crowd was abundantly behind Volador Jr. here.
Mascara Dorada vs. Averno- CMLL World Welterweight Championship
CMLL Guadalajara 2012
-Very solid match between these guys. Love Averno, he’s so damn charismatic and such a great dickish rudo and Mascara Dorada’s exciting offense compliments his rudo antics well. First fall sees Averno flattens Dorada with a Double Arm Facebuster, and then they start to pick up the face. Out of nowhere Dorada hit a gorgeous over the top rope hurricanrana and the rollup pin for the second fall. Nice headscissor/twister press sequence by Dorada, but Averno comes back with countering Dorada’s springboard sunset into the STF. Dorada sold the shit out of that boot the chest lol followed soon after by Averno hitting a sick double arm facebuster from the top and the crowd popped big for the kickout by Dorada. Great finish with a beautiful springboard transitioned into a roll up. Pretty much par the course for these two guys, which means a very solid and easy to sit through championship match.
Got to say that I'm" looking forward the seeing the upcoming tapings from AAA, the 4/30 tapings are more appealing to me:

As far as CMLL is concerned, I can't wait to check out Sombra vs. Rojo Jr. for the CMLL Middleweight Title, two of my favorite luchas hamming it up for the strap. Also, my best wishes out to El Mesias and nothing against the guy, but its likely he may miss TripleMania so I hoping that they strip him of the belt and have Perro Jr. win it so Mesias can come back and do the whole revenge angle.

Drago, Fenix & Heavy Metal vs. El Consejo
AAA on Televisa- 2012
-Very fun Trios match here. Starts off with the small vs. big guy shoulder block spot but Ano Jr. isn’t going down and Drago tries for a sneak pin followed by Ano Jr. giving him a STO takedown to major heat. Fenix tags in and cleans house before the rudos get the upperhand. The technicos fight back with Fenix hitting a sick Death Valley Driver on Toscano into the corner. After some more back and forth, the finish comes from a distraction by El Hombre de Negro, allowed Texano Jr. to deck the shit out of Fenix with a Lariat followed by the Powerbomb/Back Stabber combination. Overall, very good Trios match further establishing El Consejo.
I will say that Fenix was the star in this match though; dude is charismatic as hell and hit a lot nice spots (my favorite being the Kobashi chops followed by the bitchslap). He’s really improved over the last year.
Its a shame that they had to push TripleMania back, but I guess they really want Mesias to be on the card. This does give AAA the opportunity to build more towards the show so its good in that regard.
Until then I can't to see Dragonmania VII, I hope that my lucha provider can get ahold of the show. Good looking card and the Dragon Scramble match looks insane, here is the card for those that don't know:
