(3) Supernova & Magno beat The Right (R.J. Brewer and Petey Williams w/Lizzy Valentine) in an impromptu ladder match. As far as I could tell this technically wasn’t a “match” as no bell rang at beginning or end; it was simply a battle to grab the bag hung above the ring, as Petey Williams wished to burn it before Magno and Supernova could regain their masks. This was one of the best live matches I’ve witnessed from Lucha Libre USA so far, as the ladder stipulation gave the four wrestlers plenty of chances for unique spots. In one, Supernova was lying on the turnbuckles, and Brewer and Williams set one ladder up pointing at him and another on that ladder, forming a “T” shape which the two dropkicked simultaneously into Supernova’s chest. In another spot, Supernova and Magno did a double back drop to Brewer onto a leaning ladder; Brewer bent the ladder in a very convincing (and painful-looking) way. They do this all the time in WWE’s gimmick-filled PPVs, but it’s truly something to behold live and up close. Finally, Supernova and Magno regained the bag, only to find that a red, white and blue piñata was inside. The Right walked away gloating to end the first half of the show.

(7) LA Park (w/Mini Park) defeated Petey Williams (w/Lizzy Valentine). Despite his older age, LA Park looked quite viable in this match with Williams, hitting a few big enzuigiris and other moves. In one of the best comedy spots of the night, Park threw the referee at Williams, causing the ref to inadvertently pin Williams as Park made a fast three count. The referee celebrated quickly before the match resumed. Park finally pinned Williams after a spinning headlock elbow drop. Given the amount of heat that The Right garners, it seems strange that Williams would be pinned clean by a wrestler that probably is not going to be a regular performer for the company.
