WWE announced just a day or so before this past Saturday's AAA Alianzas event in Mexico City they would be streaming the show on their YouTube. Since I was at AEW Full Gear, here's my report.
Before the broadcast:
*Abismo Negro Jr. defeated Pimpinela EscarlataLa Parka defeated Galeno Del Mal.
*Faby Apache & Natalya defeated Las Toxicas, Flammer & La Hiedra.
*Lince Dorado issued an open challenge and Apollo Crews returned to the ring from injury to beat him.
AAA Alianzas:
They opened the stream with clips of everything that led to this show.
Interesting no English announcers this time around. I guess they are experimenting with whether the audience will watch even if they are only broadcasting in Spanish.
They showed everyone arriving at the show.
They went to ringside for the opening ceremonies.
AAA Cruiserweight Champion Laredo Kid came to ringside to do some commentary.
Axiom vs. Octagon Jr. vs. Je'Von Evans to crown top contender for AAA Cruiserweight Champion
They had a feeling out process early. Lots of early pinfall attempts and all three threw dropkicks at the same time, then faced off. They went for a three-way test of strength. Axiom scored with a dropkick that sent Evans to the floor and then repeated the feat with Octagon. Evans took down Axiom and knocked Octagon off the top. Evans went for a dive but when he rebounded off the ropes, found Octagon waiting for a springboard into a rana.
Octagon cleared the ring and hit a torneo dive to the floor on his opponents. He hit a slingshot splash on Axiom but Evans broke up the attempt. Evans drilled him with forearms. Octagon was sent into the buckles but ran up and hit a twisting moonsault press for a two count. Axiom caught him with a big back suplex and then followed up with one on Evans.

Evans set up for a superkick but Axion caught it and shoved his foot at Octagon. Evans came off the ropes for a springboard cutter but was caught and slammed. Axiom drilled Octagon with a kick to the head but Evans broke it up. The story has been the third competitor has prevented anyone from pinning their opponent.

Octagon went to the ropes but Axiom nailed a Spanish Fly. He set up but ran into Evans nailing a cutter. Evans splashed him and scored the pin.
Your winner, Je'Von Evans!
Obviously a ton of upside on Evans, who performs his heart out. Glad to see Octagon wasn't pinned here as you don't want the local heroes losing to the WWE outsiders in Mexico, no matter who owns the controlling interest. You would just be telling the audience their long-time stars aren't really stars and that risks pissing off the audience.
AAA Cruiserweight Champion Laredo Kid faced off with Evans, so that match is coming soon. Laredo is excellent so that will be a lot of fun.
Backstage, AAA Mega Champion Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano declared they were going to win tonight.
Los Psycho Circus (Dave The Clown & Murder Clown & Psycho Clown) & Pagano vs. El Ojo (El Mesias & Forastero & Mecha Wolf & Sanson) in a No DQ Match.
BIG pop for Pagano ans Psycho Clown.
Lots of brawling. Weapons tossed into the ring. Tons of plunder. Mexico was loving it. The Clowns cleared the ring but soon Murder Clown was being murdered by El Ojo. They worked him over with Singapore Cane shots. He came back to nail multiple members with a Samoan Drop at the same time. Murder Clown made his way to the corner and tagged in Psycho Clown. The Clowns began hitting dives. Tables were pulled from under the rng. They were set up against the ringside barricade. Lots of big moves in rapid fire succession. Psycho Clown escaped a powerbomb attempt and turned it into a sunset flip.
They all built into a big Tower of Doom spot off the top. Murder Clown killed someone with a big splash off the ropes. Everyone was down and almost counted down on the mat. Utter chaos. The brawling continued on the floor. Murder Clown dove off the top down onto everyone. Pagano hit a tope con hilo on Mesias through the tables against the barricade. Psycho Clown hit a Spanish Fly off the top into a chair for the pin.

Iguana sacrificed himself to save her and ate the shot, KO'd and pinned by Page.
