Bael looks to be going for a cover but bites at Aerostar's forehead instead. Bael with another quick tag to Castro, holding Aerostar in position for a forearm to the kidneys.
Cortez Castro gets told he sucks, forcing him to bust out a butterfly suplex. He covers but Aerostar kicks out before 3. The fans tell him he can't wrestle as he goes back to brawling. Bael tags back in, he got a 6 week course at a wrestling school, at least, he snapmares Aerostar over into a chinlock on the mat. Aerostar gets to his feet pretty quickly, but the usual three elbows can't free him so he drops to his knees with a jawbreaker, sendin Bael into the corner, Bael sends Aerostar overhead, Aerostar lands on the top rope and springs back hitting a back elbow. Aerostar crawls, looking for his partners. That can't be easy in his mask. Bael beats him, getting the tag to Mr Cisco but it wasn't enough to stop a tag to Argenis. Argenis sends Mr Cisco on a return trip with a springboard headscissors takedown! Argenis kicks Mr Cisco in the gut but is sent into the ropes from a bulldog attempt.

Cortez Castro breaks up the count with Bael right behind. Striker notes that The Crew have been coming in and out of the ring at will, where as the techincos have been more reserved, Vampiro calls it their difference in styles. Argenis sends Mr Cisco across the ring but he hangs on to the rope, not running into a dropkick. Argenis is catapulted into a kick by Cortez Castro on the apron as Bael climbs onto the top turnbuckle for a double stomp on Argenis across Mr Cisco's knees. The referee counts Argenis' shoulders down for 2. Mr Cisco gives Argenis time to get to his feet, running into a back body drop.
