Psycho Clown is in the ring. He says that what has transpired is not paranoia and is why he is here tonight. He says he does not have answers about what has happened and that he cannot ignore it, and that he cannot stop thinking about it. He demands that Pagano step in the ring and give him answers. Pagano shows up and heads to the ring, and Psycho Clown says it has been several weeks and that his brothers have been falling one by one, and all the facts that are in front of him are making him think it is one of them. He tells Pagano to be careful of what he accuses him of, as he has seen Murder Clown attacked on the ground and he found the black bandana near him, which he produces. Pagano takes it from his hand, and Psycho Clown says it breaks his heart that his brothers are being attacked from within before asking Pagano what is going on. Pagano says that after all they have been through, all the wars they fought together and all the blood and sweat they spent defending the tag team titles, he would not think of attacking his own brothers. He says that this is not a test, but a game, of someone who wants to destroy what is left.

Flammer says she would like to say her feet are flat on the ground after all that has happened, but Earth does not deserve her, much less the fans. Flammer thanks all the people that a took a minute to congratulate her on TV, even though she does not recognize any of them, but they know her, and that is what matters. She also wants to thanks all the "good-for-nothing" women that she beat during the last 973 days as well as all the foreigners that came from Raw and SmackDown to face her, and most importantly, she would love to thank all the Mexican women that she has humiliated, stepped on and destroyed. Flammer says she has demonstrated she is what she is and she is who she is, but she wonders where this leads her. She says this leads her here, as the best luchadora in Mexican lucha libre. Flammer states that she has beaten all of her opponents and that she is undeniable and untouchable, then proclaims that this coronation will never end. Suddenly, the lights go out, then La Catalina, fresh out of CMLL, appears in AAA. La Catalina congratulates Flammer, then says that she knows all three women in the ring and tells them that she hopes they enjoy their party, then reminds Flammer that she has never faced her. La Hiedra and Maravilla go after La Catalina only to get laid out, and Flammer's attempt at a cheap shot fails. La Catalina shoves Flammer's face in the nearby cake, then throws her into the easels carrying the photos of Flammer in the back.

"Dirty" Dominik Mysterio heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Dominik says he has no respect for the fans, and that he does not want to see old people on the flags because he is the owner of AAA and he makes the rules here. He says that absolutely nobody has given AAA the position he has given in it, and nobody has taken the AAA Mega Championship to Raw. Dominik says that when he beat John Cena at Survivor Series, the Mega Championship was in the middle of the ring so everyone could see it. He says that AAA is on Fox for all of Mexico and Latin America and is exploding, but it is because of him, not El Hijo del Vikingo or Dorian Roldan. He says that this is all possible because of him and that AAA is in a new era, and that he is "the dirtiest of the dirtiest" and the king of the luchadors. El Ojo (Dorian Roldan, Omos, El Hijo del Vikingo) shows up, and Roldan says that they are in a new era that nobody could have imagined a year ago, and that he is now one of the richest people in Mexico. He says he has invested his money very well with the true champion and the best wrestler Mexico can give in El Hijo del Vikingo, who tells Dominik that his end has come and that on March 14th, he will see him in the best city in Mexico: Puebla. He calls Dominik "the worst of the Mysterios" and himself "the best in the world," then asks Dominik what he will think in their championship match. Dominik tells Vikingo he will kick his ass in front of his whole family. Vikingo admires the confidence that Dominik has in thinking he can beat him in his own house, but says he will not beat the best wrestler in the world, and proposes something more interesting for their match: putting something on the line that really hurts. Vikingo proposes that Dominik put his hair on the line right now, then gives Dominik two weeks to think about it before he signs the contract for their match.
