We’re two weeks away from Noche de los Grandes and the likely main event is set, with the battle of the Grande Americanos. Other than that, we have the issues between Pagano and Psycho Clown, both among themselves and with the War Raiders. That could go in a variety of directions so let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening sequence.

Tokyo Bad Boys vs. Money Machine vs. La Parka/Mr. Iguana vs. NGD

The Boys are Kento/Takuma, Machine is Oro/Plata and NGD are Forastero/Sanson. Oro and Sanson start things off with an exchange of arm cranking until Sanson takes over. Forastero comes in for a triangle choke but Oro manages a hurricanrana to escape. Plata comes in and gets superkicked down but Takuma tags himself in. The Boys double hiptoss Plata but Iguana comes in for a running hurricanrana.

Parka launches Takuma into the air for a big crash but he’s right back with a tornado DDT to put Parka down. Everything breaks down (yep) and Parka gets double teamed but Money Machine is up with some dives to the floor. Takuma hits a big corkscrew dive and Parka follows with a middle rope moonsault. Iguana comes back in with the stuffed iguana, which is used to pull him face first into the buckle. A hurricanrana gives Iguana two and Parka is back in with a springboard crossbody to Forastero. The Bone Breaker finishes for Parka at 10:09.

Rating: B-. You knew what you were going to get with this match and that’s not a bad thing. There were a lot of people flying around and it made for a bit of a mess, but that’s all this was supposed to be. The flips and dives were entertaining and the fans are still into Iguana so it was pretty much a layup. An athletic layup mind you but a layup.

Post match the War Raiders come in and wreck people.

Dorian Roldan can’t get a meeting with his mom about being the new GM, but does find Texano Jr. who basically tells him to scram.

TripleMania will be a two night event. First night’s location still to be announced.

We look at Rey Fenix beating Laredo Kid two weeks ago.

Post match, Fenix said the fans loved that and wanted another shot at the title. Kid called him jealous of Penta, but Fenix said he was proud of his brother. Anyway, the title match is set for next week.

Galeno vs. Drago/Chris Carter

Galeno runs them both over for daring to double team him to start and throws them outside. Back in and Galeno backdrops Drago over the top and punches him in the face on the way down (that was awesome). Cue Omos to watch as the Galeno Special (kind of a spike double arm DDT) is enough for the double pin. Galeno looked good here and that backdrop punch was great.

We look at last week’s brawl with Bayley and Lola Vice saving La Catalina from Las Toxicas.

The six woman tag is set for Noche de los Grandes.

Cibernetico wants to be GM and Dorian Roldan is nervous.

Creed Brothers vs. El Fiscal/Aerostar

Julius takes over on Fiscal to start but Fiscal takes over on Brutus’ arm. Aerostar does the same and gets gorilla pressed into a splash onto Brutus for two. It’s back to Julius, who gets knocked to the floor and the Creeds get to catch a diving Aerostar. They also slam him onto the apron for a huge crash and Brutus steps on Aerostar’s head back inside.

The neck crank doesn’t last long so it’s back to Brutus for a hard shot to the face. The referee has to check on Aerostar, who flips out of a belly to back suplex and gets over to Fiscal to fight back. Fiscal sends the Creeds outside for a big dive and Aerostar hits a springboard dive of his own. Back in and Aerostar gets caught in the ropes, meaning it’s a powerbomb into an ankle lock for the quick tap at 7:20.

Rating: C+. This was a bit more like a regular tag match, as the Creed Brothers got to actually have some success for a change. They’re not exactly the best team on the main roster, but at least they have something to do here at the moment. If nothing else, they’re worth having around for the sake of offering a different style around here and that should serve them well.

Post match the beatdown is on until Los Americanos run in for the save. The Original El Grande Americano runs in to go after Bravo’s mask but El Grande Americano runs in for the save. Well kind of, as he can’t touch Original and has to wait for Rayo to jump Original, allowing Americano to go after the Creeds. Original calls this his house (the fans approve) and the match is going to be about Mexican pride. The match is going to have to work, but Americano’s work building this up has been excellent.

Overall Rating: B. The best thing I can say about this show is it has me wanting to see Noche de los Grandes. They’ve built up the main event very well and the six woman tag should be good. As usual, this show flies by and it has me wanting to see where things go next. Solid effort here, with more than enough stories that I want to see keep going to call it a success.

Results
Mr. Iguana/La Parka b. NGD, Money Machine and Tokyo Bad Boys – Bone Breaker to Forastero
Galeno b. Drago/Chris Carter – Double pin
Creed Brothers b. El Fiscal/Aerostar – Ankle lock to Aerostar

Location: Gimnasio Olimpico Juan de la Barrera, Mexico City, Mexico
Commentators: Corey Graves, John Bradshaw Layfield, Rey Mysterio

We’re still in Mexico City and this time we have the English commentary back. The big question coming out of last week is who is attacking the Psycho Circus, with Pagano looking like a suspect. That also might be a ruse and maybe we’ll find out something about it here. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening sequence.

Money Machine vs. La Parka/Rey Fenix

The Machine jumps them from behind to start but get sent outside for stereo dives. Back in and Parka hits a top rope splash for two on Plata with Oro making the save. Parka suplexes both of them at once and it’s off to Fenix, who gets double superkicked for two more. Plata’s powerbomb is broken up but Oro breaks up a diving tag attempt.

A top rope splash gives Oro two and Plata drives in some elbows to the head. Fenix fights up and fires off some kicks, allowing the needed tag off to Parka. Everything breaks down and Plata misses a Swanton, as does Parka’s springboard dropkick, which grazes Oro’s leg. Oro gets caught with a better connecting kick on top and Parka adds a big dive. That means the Mexican Muscle Buster can finish Oro at 6:27.

Rating: B-. They had a fast paced tag match between the perfectly acceptable Money Machine and the makeshift good guys. I’m not sure I can imagine this being a meaningful tag team going forward but there are worse uses for Parka and Fenix. It made for a fine opener though and sometimes that’s all it needs to be.

Video on Texano Jr. vs. El Mesias, who started fighting back in 2011 and they’ll be in the main event tag match tonight.

We look at AAA’s involvement in Wrestlemania Week.

We see the recently debuted Catalina at Wrestlemania, where she met John Cena (who of course spoke to her in Spanish) and Dominik Mysterio, who wasn’t impressed. She was in WWE a few years ago but it didn’t work out, so she has reinvented herself and is back for the Reina de Reinas Title. Pretty basic stuff here without much being added.

Laredo Kid vs. El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr.

Non-title. Wagner blocks a whip to start and avoids a charge into the corner. Kid gets in a superkick on the floor, setting up the big flip dive to send him into the barricade. Back in and Kid stomps away, with Wagner having to get over to the rope. A corkscrew moonsault misses though and Wagner grabs a quick Death Valley Driver for two.

They head outside again with Kid superkicking him again and hitting a 450 from the apron to the floor. Wagner is right back up with a slam from the apron tot he floor, with Kid somehow getting up at two. A quadruple jump moonsault gives Wagner two and the Wagner Driver finishes Kid at 6:57.

Rating: B. I was a bit surprised at the result as I wasn’t expecting one of the champions to actually take a fall. The good thing is they had a heck of a match with Kid giving everything he had to try and slow Wagner down. This was a rather nice surprise and I’ll take that any week.

Post match respect is eventually shown.

We look at more of Texano vs. Mesias, this time in 2016. They’re making this feel big.

Rey Fenix offers support to Laredo Kid, who says Fenix is just jealous that he doesn’t have a title like his brother. Ouch.

The new General Manager will be announced on May 23. That likely won’t end well.

El Mesias/Mecha Wolf vs. El Grande Americano/Texano Jr.

Americano and Wolf start things off as we have to wait for the legends to clash. A leg lariat puts Wolf down early and he gets pulled into a hammerlock. Americano grabs a handstand hammerlock before it’s off to Texano to stay on the arm. That’s enough to bring in Mesias for the slugout and everything breaks down. Texano and Americano clear the ring but Wolf goes after Texano’s bullrope.

The distraction leaves Texano to get caught in a Hart Attack for two and we hit the chinlock. Texano’s tilt-a-whirl backbreaker drops Mesias though and it’s back to Americano to take over on Wolf. A middle rope clothesline gives Americano two with Mesias making the save. Everything breaks down and we get some dives to the floor, with Americano getting the better of things. Wolf loads up the mist but Americano knocks it out of his mouth. The running headbutt and La Cavernaria finishes for Americano at 8:20.

Rating: B-. Another perfectly nice tag match here as Americano continues to be the hottest thing in the promotion. It’s awesome to see him having this kind of success as the whole gimmick was little more than a joke that took off. Mesias vs. Texano certainly felt big as well as they tapped into the pre-WWE history and it worked as planned.

Post match Americano lets Texano have the ring but the Original El Grande Americano runs in to give Texano an ankle lock. The other Americano makes the save.

Overall Rating: B. The best thing I can say about this show is one of the most important aspect to any series: it’s easy to follow. At no point do I feel lost, confused or anything else and that’s a great sign. They aren’t exactly doing revolutionary stuff but it all makes sense and ties together, with stories getting to rotate in and out every few weeks to keep them fresh. That was the case again here and it made for a rather good show, as usual.

Results
La Parka/Rey Fenix b. Money Machine – Mexican Muscle Buster to Oro
El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. b. Laredo Kid – Wagner Driver
El Grande Americano/Texano Jr. b. El Mesias/Mecha Wolf – La Cavernaria to Wolf

Rey de Reyes 2026 Night Two
Date: March 21, 2026
Location: Auditorio GNP Seguros, Puebla, Mexico
Commentators: John Bradshaw Layfield, Rey Mysterio, Corey Graves

We’re back to another part of this show and this time it’s about some gold rather than a really big sword. The Tag Team Titles are on the line as Psycho Clown and Pagano are defending against the War Raiders. Other than that, we have a mixed six person tag, which should be a lot of fun. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

The opening video talks about iron sharpening iron and the iron will you need in this ring. We also look back at last week and look forward to this week.

Money Machine/La Hiedra vs. Lola Vice/Mr. Iguana/Rey Fenix

Fenix and Oro start things off with a run of the ropes, as Fenix keeps leapfrogging him. Oro gets sent back into his corner so Vice is in to hit Hiedra in the head. Iguana comes in to take over on Money Machine but the stuffed iguana is intercepted. A backbreaker/spinning top rope splash combination hits Iguana and they stop to beat up the stuffed version.

It’s off to Vice to send Hiedra into the corner for the running hip attack as everything breaks down. Hiedra is back up with a Stunner into a hip attack of her own, followed by a Downward Spiral. She makes the mistake of going to yell at Iguana though and gets caught in a double swinging faceplant. It’s back to Fenix to clean house with the rapid fire kicks, plus a super inverted Spanish Fly for two on Oro. Vice dives onto Hiedra and Iguana hits a big dive off the top to the floor. The Fenix Driver finishes Oro at 9:41.

Rating: B-. This was the fun opener that I was expecting as Vice and Iguana are a blast together, with the others more than pulling their weight. Fenix was in there as well to add all of the high flying stuff and that’s always worth a look. Good stuff here, with the fans digging what they were getting.

Post match Chelsea Green pops up to say she never lost her Mixed Tag Team Title, so acknowledge her as your champion. Anything involving more Green is a good thing.

We recap the Tag Team Title match, with the War Raiders showing up but Pagano and Psycho Clown not being ready to roll over for them.

Tag Team Titles: War Raiders vs. Pagano/Psycho Clown

The Raiders are challenging. It’s a brawl to start with the Raiders taking Clown out. Pagano manages to fight back and gets an Air Raid Crash to Erik but gets knocked off the top. Ivar crushes Pagano against the steps and hammers away back inside. Erik’s big knee gets two and Erik slams Ivar onto Pagano for two more. Pagano kicks his way out of the corner though and it’s back to Clown, who is healthy enough to start fighting back.

Everything breaks down and Clown hits a running dive to take out Erik on the floor. Back in and Clown gets knocked into the wrong corner, with Ivar being driven into his face. Pagano comes in again to make the save and it’s a missile dropkick into an Emerald Flosion for two on Erik. Pagano and Erik strike it out until Ivar is back in with a spinning kick to the face.

The Doomsault connects, with Clown having to dive off the top for the save. Everyone pulls themselves up and Clown pulls off his mask to reveal a red version. The champs win a slugout and Pagano hits a top rope legdrop for two. Back up and Pagano accidentally elbows Clown, only to have them go after the Raiders instead of each other. The double brawl is on and the referee is shoved down, which is a double DQ at 13:29.

Rating: B. This was exactly the kind of fight you would have expected from these teams and that was great to see. It’s a good example of not trying to overthink things, as this was about two big power teams beating the daylights out of each other. I like the ending as well, as that could set up a big physical rematch down the line.

Post match the brawl is on again and they grab chairs and kendo sticks to make it better. Security breaks it up.

El Ojo is trying to regroup after last week, with Dorian Roldan on the phone with his mom. After getting her out of the way, Roldan has to convince El Hijo del Vikingo that he should focus on winning the Intercontinental Title.

It’s time for the presentation of the sword to El Grande Americano. With the Roldans in the ring, 2010 winner Chessman, 2015 winner Texano Jr., and 1999 winner Cibernetico come out with their big swords. Now it’s time for this year’s winner, El Grande Americano, with JBL hating him all the way to the ring.

Americano greets everyone and thanks the fans for everything before praising the three previous winners. He talks about the respect he has for lucha libre and thanks Marisela Pena, as well as the fans. It’s about carrying the pride of Mexico and it isn’t about where you were born, because the pride of Mexico is about the culture.

Cue Dominik Mysterio (JBL approves) to actually shake hands and suggest that they have the title match right now. Americano chases Mysterio off but here is the Original El Grande Americano to jump Americano from behind. The beating is on with Americano being sent into various things and Original ripping at the mask. Los Americanos run in for the save but Original steals the sword to end the show.

Overall Rating: A-. This was a heck of a show with two good matches and a big angle to wrap it up. As has been the case since it started airing weekly, AAA is an easy show to watch and the English commentary has helped it a lot. This was a rather good show and it flew by, which is always nice to see. Heck of a show here and I want to see what happens next week.

Results
Rey Fenix/Mr. Iguana/Lola Vice b. Money Machine/La Hiedra – Fenix Driver to Oro
War Raiders vs. Pagano/Psycho Clown went to a double DQ when both teams shoved the referee

AAA On Fox
Date: February 14, 2026
Location: Auditorio José María Arteaga, Santiago de Querétaro, Mexico
Commentators: Corey Graves, John Bradshaw Layfield, Rey Mysterio

We continue the road towards King Of Kings and the qualifying for the namesake match continues. That’s in addition to El Hijo de Vikingo getting ready to challenge Dominik Mysterio for the Mega Title. This show has been a breeze to watch in its early weeks and it would be great to see that continue. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening sequence.

Jack Cartwheel vs. La Parka

Cartwheel cartwheels around to start and Parka loses his sleeves, though his arms have bones on them as well (that’s great). A running crucifix bomb plants Parka and he rolls outside, where Cartwheel busts out a space flying tiger drop for the big crash. Back in and Parka gets two off a Michinoku Driver but Cartwheel snaps off a poisonrana. A Red Arrow misses though and Cartwheel gets suplexed into the corner. Cartwheel rolls outside so Parka nails a suicide dive, followed by the Thriller for the pin at 3:59.

Rating: B-. I was surprised at the length of the match as I was expecting this to be a good bit longer. They crammed in a bunch of stuff into just about four minutes and that’s great to see. Cartwheel was hyped up as a big deal, but given that Parka was in the Royal Rumble, it’s no surprise that he got a showcase here. Fun match either way though.

Post match Parka brings in a kid for some dancing. Works around the world.

We look back at El Ojo destroying Mini Vikingo.

Mini Vikingo is in the hospital, with his mother by his side. He says his heart hurts the worst, because he tried to honor Vikingo and this is what happened. He’s so glad his mother is here with him, though his mother finds a note saying “SEE YOU SOON!” from El Hijo de Vikingo. Unfortunately she doesn’t show it to him. This was so over the top that it was great, especially getting to see Omos wreck him again.

Santos Escobar doesn’t like people dancing around here and is ready to put El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. on trial, with Escobar as judge, jury and executioner, say at King Of Kings.

Las Toxicas vs. Faby Apache/Jessy Jackson/Adelicious

Apache charges at Maravilla to start and grabs a flipping backslide for two. It’s off to Adelicious, who gets hit in the face and Hiedra comes in for a backbreaker. Jackson comes in for some running knees in the corner but a distraction lets Flammer come in and the villains take over. A kick to the face in the corner puts Jackson outside but she manages a double clothesline. Adelicious comes back in with a double missile dropkick and a 450 gets two, with Hiedra making the save. Everything breaks down and Flammer’s basement dropkick pins Adelicious at 3:42.

Rating: C. Another quick and to the point match here as the regular trio gets to smash through a makeshift team. If nothing else, Flammer, the Reina de Reinas champion, getting a win is a good way to go as you want to remind people that the champions are indeed good. Not much to see here, but they were moving while they were in there.

The Original Grande Americano declares that he is the real version and accuses SOMEONE of impersonating him for the last six months. That impostor even SANG SONGS in Spanish to pretend to be him. Don’t worry though as he’ll win the Rey de Reyes tournament and then the Mega Title.

We look back at Panic Clown being attacked a few weeks ago.

The Psycho Circus and Pagano want to keep their eyes out tonight and then go see Panic, but one of them (Dave I believe) has forgotten something in the locker room.

We look at the rather intense rivalry between Abismo Negro and Fiscal, who meet next week.

Money Machine vs. War Raiders vs. Los Americanos

For a Tag Team Title shot against Pagano/Psycho Clown (on Spanish commentary) at Rey de Reyes. Bravo armdrags Plata down to start and stops to dances so Oro comes in, earning a beating of his own. The Raiders aren’t having this and clears the ring, including dropping Oro for two. Money Machine gets back in to take over on Erik but Ivar takes both of them out. Los Americanos are in to jump Ivar, but the Raiders pull the two of them out of the air.

That means a toss to send the two of them into each other for quite the crash but Money Machine dives in to dropkick the Raiders down again. The Raiders catch the diving Money Machine and toss them into each other as well though, leaving the Raiders to go after Rayo inside. The Bronco Buster misses for Ivar though and Bravo comes back in to slug away at Money Machine.

Rayo’s middle rope moonsault clears out a bunch of people on the floor and Bravo actually slams Ivar back inside. Stereo diving headbutts get two on Ivar but Money Machine is back in to take over. A suicide dive hits Ivar and a second takes Erik out but Los Americanos double headbutt Oro. The Raiders make the save though and a belly to back suplex/top rope splash finishes Plata at 9:27.

Rating: B. They went with the fast paced, exciting style here and that worked well. The Raiders were a smart addition as you can always use a team with a power brawling style. It helps that they already have a reputation as former champions in WWE to add some star power. The other teams were rather good as well, as they were flying around to confused the Raiders, making for a hot main event.

Post match the champs get in the ring for the staredown with the Raiders, but here is Murder Clown to wave Psycho and Pagano to the back. Dave the Clown has been attacked and is taken away in an ambulance to end the show.

Overall Rating: B-. The best sign is that these shows seem to be starting to bring in some more AAA stars rather than just having the WWE guest stars. That makes sense to a certain extent, but eventually you need to stick with what this show is supposed to be about. They made it work again this week, with a completely entertaining show, even without most of the bigger names. Hopefully they can continue that trend, as it’s a good thing to see.

Results
La Parka b. Jack Cartwheel – Thriller
Las Toxicas b. Faby Apache/Jessy Jackson/Adelicious – Basement dropkick to Adelicious
War Raiders b. Money Machine and Los Americanos – Belly to back suplex/top rope splash combination to Plata
