I think everyone could have predicted that finish exactly as it played out. Only partial question was if they’d pin Evans again because they do it all the time. My money was on Laredo though.

for some reason, I picked this next match at the one to be the shortest lol. But it probably won't be to long, I hear Chad has a plane to catch so he probably shouldn't have to long a match.

lol they show highlights of Vikingo winning the Mega Title and they won't even show the former champion.

I first saw Vikingo when he was maybe 19 or 20 working as a freelancer on a AAA opening match hoping to earn a deal. If you’ve never seen those matches…they’re like a war where three or four guys are thrown out there to impress and they all try to break their necks to get noticed. Wildly dangerous looking stuff, honestly. Anyway…I think it took a total of 90 seconds watching Vikingo for me to tell anyone who would listen that he was going to be a star. Quickest I’ve ever identified a guy as A GUY in decades of watching wrestling. He just had all of it.

AAA knew it too…they signed him and then years passed without them helping him get a visa to work in the states. He did a few TNA tapings when they were in Mexico and then another year would pass before they’d come back and he’d be on US TV again. He obviously got one eventually and popped up on AEW where he was immediately seen as a star…but they strengthened their CMLL ties and that iced out AAA. He’s done some TNA shows including one recently…but, as someone who has loved this guy from practically first sight…I’m very happy that he’s being pushed as the face of this whole thing by the biggest company in the world.

Son of a bitch... I picked the NA Title match to the longest on this show... so far it's the second longest... 6 seconds short of being longest...

I mean there was an AAA dude there in Laredo Kid so it was WWE vs AAA.

Corey is really worried about AAA losing their title to an outsider when that title has been held by Jeff Jarrett twice, Kenny Omega and Nic Nemeth already

time to snap into the slim table

it's not a WWE show so it's only a regular table. No Slim Jim Branding because AAA doesn't do Slim Jim
