Demus & Dave The Clown vs. Chris Dickinson & Mascarita Sagrada

Sagrada (aka the former Torito in WWE) and Demus started out with the crowd chanting for Saagrada.  Demus used his power early to control but Sagrada used his speed to toss him off and his several Mexican armdrags before nailing a head scissor.  His momentum didn't last long as Dave clobbered him but Dickinson cut him off and nailed several lariats in the corner.  Dave cut him off with a running lariat.  He and Demus trashed Dickinson in the corner  They whipped him to the opposite end, where he was hit with a lariat and a cannonball.  Sagrada tried to intervene but was powerbombed by Demus.

The crowd chanted evil things at the villains.  Dickinson returned to the ring but was double teamed.   He avoided a charge in the corner and nailed several lariats.  He and Dave peppered each other with forearms.    He rolled up Dave for a two count, then nailed a DVDR but Demus broke up the pinfall.   Demus rebounded off the ropes and tried for a shoulderblock but bounced off rudely.  Sagrada tagged in and hit a springboard kick on Dave.  Dickinson hit a back suplex for a two count.

Sagrada dropkicked Dave in the legs and cannonballed him in the corner.  The crowd chanted for him.  Demus entered the ring and kicked him down.  Sagrada hit a geat top rope head scissors in Demus.  He did several rotations around hm before sending Demus to the floor wth a head scissor, then hit a dive to the outside.  Dave went to hit one but Dickinson cut him off with a lariat for a two count.  Dave nailed a chokeslam for a two count but Chris kicked up.  They battled to the floor.  Demus and Sagrada battled back into the ring, where Sagrada brought the house down doing another series of rotations into a head scissors takeover into a pinfall combination in one fell swoop for the pin.  That was FUN.

Your winners, Chris Dicksinson & Mascarita Sagrada!

Really fun opener with Demus and Sagrada reprising their long running rivalry.  

They aired a big opening video.

Team Impact: Impact Tag Team Champion Josh Alexander & Sami Callihan & Michael Elgin vs. Team AAA: Murder Clown & Drago & Faby Apache

Team Impact attacked before the bell and trashed Team AAA.  Murder Clown and Alexander faced off.  Clown stiffly kicked him in the back of the heads and did a 619 variation.  He came off the top with a flying bodypress.  Alexander snapped him on the ropes and nailed a running kick to the back while Clown was on the apron.  Drago and Elgin had some nice exchanges.  Drago naied a superkick and charged, then came off the ropes with a nice rana.  He sent Elgin to the floor and went for a dive but was cut off by Alexander.    Faby hit the ring and nailed a rana on Elgin, then a dropkick on Alexander, sending them to the floor.  Drago hit a nice dive to the outside.

Callihan confronted Faby and spit in her face.  Needless and disgusting.  She went to town on him, beating him across the back until getting kicked in the face.  He kicked her down but she came back and hit a rana.  She dropkicked him off the apron and hit a flip off the apron to the floor on Sami.  The crowd chanted for her.   Team Impact triple-teamed her but Faby came back to kick Sami in the face   They overwhelmed her, beating her down as they prevented her partners from returning to make the save.  They tagged in and out, working her over as the crowd tried to rally Faby.  She came back with a dropkick off the ropes but it hardly fazed Elgin.  

Team Impact continued the carnage until Murder Clown finally hit the ring but he too, was overwhelmed.  Lots of fans yelling for rudos before chanting expletives in Espanol at Impact. Murder chokeslammed Alexander.  Elgin showed off his power, htting a fall away slam on Apache and Drago at the same time.  Elgin went for a powerbomb off the ropes but Drago turned it into a rana for a two count.  Alexander broke up the pin.  Faby attacked him.  They battled to the top rope, where she hit a top rope sunset flip powerbomb,   She nailed a shining wizard but was attacked by Callihan and hit with a piledriver.  Drago kicked Sami in the face.  Callihan hit a pump kick but Drago came back with a Canadian (Dragon?) Destroyer for a two count.

Alexander nailed a belly to belly off the ropes on Drago,  Murder Clown hit a DVDR.  Elgin snapped him with a German suplex.    Elgin hit a flip dive over the top to the floor on everyone.  That left Murder Clown in the ring.  He teased a dive to a BIG POP and hit one, barely clearing over the ropes, toppling everyone.

Back in the ring, Elgin lowblowed Clown and hit a powerbomb off the ropes for the pin.

Your winners, Team Impact!

A good back and forth match.  Apache was great as the babyface in peril and they built well to the big pop for the Murder Clown dive.  Good stuff.

They continued beating Team AAA after the bell.  

Flamita vs. Puma King vs. Daga vs. Aerostar

All sorts of fast paced action at the bell and then they face off.  Flamita hit a moonsault to the floor on Puma King then killed him wth a superkick on the floor.  Daga and Aerostar battled back and forth.  Star nailed Daga with a kikck to the head, then hit a somersault into a stunner for a two count.   Flamita and Aerostar battled in the corner.  Flamita ate a kick to the face and was powerbombed down.  Flamita ascended to the top for a 450 splash for a two count but Puma King broke it up.  He powerbombed Flamita and tied him up in the ropes.  He nailed a double stomp for a two count but Daga hit the ring.  The crowd gave Daga a lot of garbage.

Daga took control of the ring.  He nailed several kicks and chops.  Puma King went for a powerbomb on Aerostar but Daga kicked him in the back of the knees.   There was a ton of back and forth action.  Flamita hit a leaping rana off the top on Aerostar.  Puma King hit a flip dive to the outside on Daga.  Daga was full blown heel.  He was almost backdropped off the top to the floor but reversed it into a rana.  He finally nailed a Jay-Driller for the pin..

Your winner, Daga!

WAY too much to do play by play live on but tons of near falls and good action.  The crowd really enjoyed the hell out of this.

By virtue of his win, Daga has earned a future AAA Cruiserweight title shot against Laredo Kid.
