Most don't watch it live. El Rey isn't on that many cable providers in the US yet

After seeing every episode since the debut in 2014 usually the day after it aired I finally got caught up on the last couple weeks after having to find a new place to watch since they've been taking content off YouTube and DM.

I hope Mil gets his title back. If not him then Cage or Puma take out Midget Matanza.

Ivelisse and Taya have been been putting on great performances. Would like to see a fatal 4 way women's match and Catrina make her in ring debut in the company

still waiting on my favorite jobber Famous B's season 2 debut match

Heard who is going to make a ring debut is Black Lotus. Famous B will probably not wrestle this season. Hope you watched tonight because it was nuts.

Don't sleep on Mariposa aka Cheerleader Melissa

I think Black Lotus/Angela Fong was considered a good wrestler back in FCW too but I can't say I've seen her work



Sick ass episode tonight, made up for last week's somewhat average show in LU's standards

Love Melissa, not sure how I feel about the character for her though. I would have brought her in under her own name and gave the gimmick to another woman

[JPeeper]

Noice, 1080p rips up already.

Usually had to wait 3 days.

[tnel00]

Trios match started off a bit too spotty for my taste but finished strong and advanced some storylines in a good way. Overall a really good episode. Much better than last weeks.

More interested to see what's going on with Pentagon Jr. than anything else though right now.

[kronzino]

Mysterio is one of the least exciting talents on LU right now.

I understand the value he brings with his name and no disrespect to the OG but it's hilarious watching him compared to the younger and crazier talents.

But it's better than Blue Demon Jr I guess

It's true, he can't keep up in the ring. But he might be a great addiction to help the talents develop.

[sschantz]

I am all caught up as of today but why is Pentagon Jr in a wheel chair? What did I miss?

Thought it was funny when they are doing the scene in the police dept and there is a pic of Alberto Del Rio under 'Missing"

Matanza broke his back on their title match

Matanza broke his back on their title match

That's right, thank you.

[tnel00]

Thats Someones Daughter!!!

[tnel00]

I'm not a big Sexy Star fan, but that was a pretty awesome match

[KernelBluegrass]

HNNGGG overload tonight.... Catrina was hnnnggg all over the place, Melissa Santos was super hnnnnngggg, Sexy Star leading the way for women wrestlers today. Yes, womens can main event a show. Are you paying attention WWE? PhucK YOU!!!!

Ive been saying women should get color for awhile now.

[JoaoPTPinto]

What a match...

[tnel00]

Best part of tonights show was Marty being the biggest creep on the planet. I love that guy.

Next week we get Graver Consequences. Very intrigued to see what a 4 coffin match is going to look like. LU gives you a reason to tune in every week. WWE should take notes

[kronzino]

Goddamn that was brutal!

[JPeeper]

lol'd when Matt Stryker "THAT'S SOMEBODY'S DAUGHTER!!"

Also, GOAT moment was when Sexy Star told the ref "FUUUUUUKKKKKKK YOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUU"

if anyone wants to know how you get someone over, watch Sexy Star and Mariposa match, because THAT is how it is done.

[LurkoLantern]

That No Mas match was brutal and amazing.


You guys reading the Lucha Underground comics? Fills in backstory, like what happened to Big Ryck

Spoiler!

He dead

I think they're all available online - like if you go to comicbookresources and a search, they're all available to read

[devin45k]

I really want to get into this. I have seen several clips online and it looks really good.

Wtf...didnt even know these existed. Going to read them all later today

So what is the run down of this? Is it a wrestling show with day time tv storylines? Should I watch from season 1 in order?

I only watched a 10 minute recap video of what happened in season 1 for basic storyline progression. I have watched every episode of season 2 and outside of some references to season 1 (because of previous feuds) it all makes sense.

I would call it a scripted tv show and the problems get resolved by wrestling.

That is a pretty good description. Most every match is a story line being built or finished. There is very little that feels like just a time filler. There are crazy high spots that are honestly getting stupid dangerous. I cringe every time Pentagon Jr drops someone on their head



It is written episodic so watching from the beginning would be the best experience but I think each episode can stand purely on its own just by the quality of the matches.

[LurkoLantern]

Ok so I did a little more research on the comics - they're a 4 issue mini-series that ran from Dec - March, that take place in between Seasons 1 and 2. Fills in:

- Fate of Big Ryck
- How the Disciples built Mil's throne
- Rey Mysterio's search for Dragon Azteka Jr
- How Vampiro/Ian got committed
- Story of Matanza Cueto being possessed by an Aztec deity

[JoaoPTPinto]
