This actually entered "so bad it's good" territory for me - what a fucking amazing series of production botches. Last two matches were good, I got my money's worth I guess, but AAA are fucking cursed with iPPV.

Putting on a show worse than ROH production wise takes skill
Coming back for Bound For Glory 2015? I swear it is probably TNA's last PPV until the next one!

AAA, and bad productions go hand in hand.
Seriously they are the number 1 wrestling promotion in Mexico, but for some reason CMLL has always looked miles better than them from a production standpoint for the better part of 3 decades.

The best reviews of the show are literally "there's no reality in which this was worth $30"

Seriously, it was amazing in its awfulness. The old dudes vs clowns was compellingly bad. During the cage match all I could think was "imagine damn near killing yourself for a match this shit". Cage/Alberto wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either and the main event was easily the best match on the show, which isn't saying much. I was thoroughly entertained by the post-match idiocy and the production botches throughout - also, take a drink every time Striker says "nicely done". Some other Striker-isms: trying to pop shitty NY indie dudes with namedrops on commentary, describing everything as "a sign of respect" and that moment when you realise he's been fucking vanity searching himself during the PPV and is aware of and starts poking fun at the shit people have tweeted about him.
It was worth it for the smile it put on my face watching Myztiziziziz put on this solid match with Mysterio only to whiff it HARD at the end. It was like fate.
I love ring veteran Avarno putting the boots to him immediately instead of looking like a FCW/NXT trainee and just staring at the botch looking confused

Averno just immediately stomping the shit out of him was fucking hilarity
She's beautiful and this is totally not a sharp knees, 2/10, would not commentary, but looking at her I can't help but thinking of Quint in Jaws describing a shark's eyes.
"The thing about a shark, it's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When it comes at you it doesn't seem to be livin'."
Forget traniees how about the fucking wwe main event.
Cena breaks his nose and Rollins stares at him like Vince is in his ear or something.

Well in Rollins' defense, he saw his life flashing before his goddamn eyes
Don't wanna be Kennedy'd
Tell me, he did not just wear that.
fuck that shit you do your job and sell the match
All that company preaches is shit like standing your ground and not taking shit. Hell Rollins and Cena got fucking merch from that busted nose.

So I saw this making the rounds, Data West: https://twitter.com/Jocay19/status/630559127530545152
And after googling "Perros Del Mal," I discovered that it's the name of a heel group that Perro Jr. founded.
So am I to gather than Mistico turned because he wants to get revenge on Rey for killing Perro Jr. with the 619?

No, Pentagon would be the one for that spot. Mistico is just latching onto anything popular to try to keep himself relevant since Rey and El Patron took his 'big fish' spot. Everything I've ever seen about Mistico IRL says that pretty much nobody likes him where as everyone liked Perro.
Originally they were talking about Pentagon vs Rey, but I imagine Mistico pulled a gun on Konnan backstage and demanded he get the feud instead.

You are overthinking and it was probably just a typical random indy heel turn (crossed off indy because really everyone does it, at least AAA saved one for their biggest show to get people hyped for the next year of their stuff)
