This match couldn’t reach the levels of the previous trio but it did have some good stuff mixed in it. Villano and Atlantis continue their march to the big match together with Atlantis trying to go after the rudo tandem from the onset and getting beat down. We see Villano grab a drink from the crowd but sadly the camera cuts away before we see what happens. There is some weird clipping in the second fall too where Emilio and Dr. Wagner are in the ring and then we go straight to Villano and Atlantis without any tags. Villano was able to obtain the victory and the build remains strong six weeks out. Charles and Shocker had a go at each other throughout this match and that was a fun looking feud. Shocker for his part stayed out of the way mostly. Fun stuff. ***

This was a lot of fun, although very short. Villano III and Atlantis are just magic together with everything they do, but the parts without the are pretty good too. Especially the arrogance of the rudos with Dr. Wagner doing jumping jacks between falls and Shocker waving the bell like a madman in the post match. *** 1/4

Short but solid stuff, mostly a hype piece for Atlantis-Villano III. That in itself is pretty fun and so much is still to come before we get to 3-17, so I'm pumped.

The Atlantis/Villano feud continues. Love Atlantis just walking into the ring and hitting Villano with a dropkick as his first move. Then he hits a perfect tope into the crowd. The match was basically to built the feud which is alright.

The build for Satanico/Tarzan Boy and Atlantis/Villano was a hell of a one-two punch. This is the kind of thing that CMLL does really well when they bother to do it. This installment was heavily clipped so it's not fair to judge it as a match, but I liked the fact that we got a true blue tecnico fall to start with. I think that's the first time there's been a tecnico fall in this January footage. The clipping sort of ruined the rudo comeback, but they got a nice pose in with the submission. Shocker was in his prime here and it was pretty clear that he and Niebla were the best conditioned of the workers involved. They were heavily involved in the early part of the Atlantis/Villano rivalry, as I'm sure you're all aware, but it wasn't clear from the clipping how much that played into the bout. They did pull a dive on one another, though. Atlantis vs. Villano wasn't as heated as in previous matches, which may be why they shortened this, but Atlantis got a tope in, which was a statement of sorts. The rudos were the ones who mugged the camera in the post-match interview, though, and not for the first time. Villano sure was proud of taking Super Astro's mask. I wonder how he felt about Astro reneging on the deal.

Average match. Atlantis went after Villano III from the start, but didn't really get the advantage. Atlantis seemed sluggish throughout the match and not up to his usual level. Nothing really bad in this match, but it never found a groove, maybe as a result of the clipping. Shocker was funny ringing the bell.

Another clean submission win in the end for Villano III over Atlantis. My favourite part was the start with Atlantis just coming in and immediately hitting a dropkick on Villano despite the fact he knew he'd be swamped by the rudos. Little details turn up the heat.
