Welcome to PWInsider.com's AAA Verano de Escandalo Week 3 report for Saturday 8/8 after it aired on FOX Latin America and YouTube.
AAA is again at Arena San Marcos in Aguascalientes, Mexico with Corey Graves, JBL and Rey Mysterio on the call.
Psycho Clown vs. Cruz del Toro vs. El Fiscal: Winner Advances to the AAA Latin American Championship Match
Cruz del Toro and El Fiscal initially worked together against Psycho but that went to hell early. Fiscal nailed a powerbomb on del Toro for a two count. Cuz came back with a big tornillo dive onto both of his opponents on the floor. Psycho Clown caught del Toro with a Psycho Driver onto the apron before taking Fiscal down on the outside. This set up a new masked wrestler coming out of the crowd and attacking Psycho, so this is whoever is responsible for all the attacks on Psycho Circus in recent weeks. He ripped at Psycho's mask, chokeslammed him through chairs and menaced fans. All this allowed Fiscal to take down Cruz and hit a top rope frog splash for the pin.
Your winner, advancing, El Fiscal!
This was a solid, fun bout. At least we know now Pagano was indeed innocent!
They went to a segment where AAA GM Rey Mysterio put over the luchador tournament with the winner facing Roman Reigns at the 9/22 Raw in Mexico City, as well as AAA talents appearing over the course of Summerslam weekend at WWE events.
From the onset, this was all action with some nice back and forth lucha sequences. Noisy Boy nailed a springboard stunner for a two count. Cartwheel was spotlighted with all his cocky offense, nailing a big flip dive and a Red Arrow to score the pinfall.
Your winner, Jack Cartwheel!
Short (as in less than five minutes) but fun.
Karmen Petrovic walked out, setting the stage for Los Perros del Mal to attack Cartwheel. Daga declared that the AAA roster are nothing and Perros del Mal run the company. They introduced former FMW star and lucha legend Damian 666, bringing him back to the faction he was first part of when it was created.
They aired an interview with Dominik Mysterio. He said that after El Grande Americano won the Rey de Reyes, Americano became the Mexican Hero, so Mysterio keft. He said he was the King of the Luchadors and would beat Americano at TripleMania. When asked about Dorian Roldan and that apparent alliance, he said they both understand having to deal with fathers in executive roles standing over them. Dom said Omos would be with him next week when he appears. Liv Morgan showed up, so they are teasing she will be coming to TripleMania.
AAA Reina de Reinas Championship Flammer vs. La Catalina vs. Lady Shani
Some nice dives to the floor by both challengers, Shani and Catalina, early on. Catalina nailed a missile dropkick and powerbombed Flammer onto Shani for a close two count. Catalina nailed a spear on Flammer outside the ring and delivered a running knee strike to Shani once she returned inside. Flammer picked the bones, throwing Catalina to the outside, and pinned Shani to retain.
Your winner and still Champion, Flammer!
Your typical WWE Triple Threat bout. Everyone worked hard.
