4. Sin Cara Missed A Dive While Los Matadores Blame El Torito For Losing

It's nice to see a tag match featuring teams that aren't in the title picture, but this story is pretty ridiculous. When Lucha Dragons faced Los Matadores, it was a very good match for the time given. They got about seven minutes. The problem with a match like this is that Los Matadores are barely used, so there's barely a crowd reaction for anything that they do. At least with Lucha Dragons the crowd is very interested in what they do, especially when Kalisto was in the ring. Kalisto is so exciting when he gets the hot tag. His athleticism is unparalleled. At one point near the end of the match, Sin Cara went for a dive outside the ring. His legs didn't really clear so his leap failed to really make contact. Thankfully for WWE, this is a taped show. They only showed his back during the dive so we didn't see how far he missed one of the Matadores outside the ring. If that happened on Raw it would be the talk of the show. On Smackdown it's not as noticeable. The story here is that after the win by Lucha Dragons, El Torito was blamed for the loss even though it had nothing to do with him. According to reports, Torito is turning face and will be paired with Lucha Dragons because they're the more popular team. It's that simple sometimes.
