 Ring Around The Red Bull! 
Thor is crashing down towards Earth and finally comes in time to save himself. He then sees a strangely garbed figure trying to fly - poorly. Thor saves the man, who introduces himself as El Vampiro. El Vampiro tells Thor about his meeting with El Toro Rojo and how he was beaten badly. Suddenly, El Toro Rojo comes crashing in, intent on killing El Vampiro. Thor knocks him outside, but before Mjolnir can return to his hand, El Toro Rojo sends it careening away by butting it with his head. He and Thor fight hand-to-hand until Thor allows himself to be hurled towards his hammer, but it is too late. Thor transforms into Blake, and El Toro Rojo crashes into him, sending Blake careening towards a wall. Luckily, before Donald Blake takes the bone-crushing blow, he is saved by El Vampiro. Believing he has finished, El Toro Rojo takes Blake's cane and leaves. He has a match but will return afterward to finish off El Vampiro. Blake heads to the arena to get his cane back. He ties a scarf around his face and climbs into the ring. He grabs the cane and manages to get slammed to the mat, triggering the change. They wrestle back and forth when El Toro Rojo attempts to gore Thor but Instead gets his horns shaved off by the whirling Mjolnir. With EL Toro Rojo's power diminished, Thor knocks him through the roof and out of the arena to a painful landing. Thor then leaves and heads for Olympia.
