RIPPA

Nah.  They both usually like LU; But Bryan has hated intergender since the start and rails against it almost every time.  Different people are into different things.  I know as soon as Pentagon started strangling a woman with a cable, I said, "this is fucking dumb" and turned it off.

As I said, different people like different things and see things differently.  For me, and likely B&V, watching Pentagon punch and kick women and beat them with foreign objects while a rabid crowd cheered it on was gross.  Up there with Vince and Trish's "bark like a dog" shit.  Again, that's just me.

When I said "this show", I meant this episode. Like I said before, I  understand if the show was uncomfortable.

I really liked the episode yesterday excpet for PJ vs Sexy Star obviously. Kind of unexcusable that if Sexy/Mundo is actually happening next week we're getting 3 Sexy Star singles matches in 5 weeks while certain guys who shall not be named will likely not get 3 singles matches the entire season.

Very excited for Kobra Moon's new group. Great looks, I like the story & I know who's under the hoods so we're in for some fun! Stuff like this is what I want more of on the show. I know a lot of people aren't in the campy shit but I'm sorry - I tuned in for Mortal Kombat so give me MORTAL FUCKIN KOMBAT!

Was it just me or did Marty The Moth's body look awful yesterday? He's not the best physical specimen in general but yesterday it looked like he was cycling off something or had a rash... maybe it was just the video quality via how I watched but something looked really weird.

The Matanza breaking out stuff was great. Damn he murdered Azteca countering the DDTijuana! HIDE REY REY! WE WANT REY REY TO LIVE! :(

Next week shapes up good if they hold off the cage match. Angelico is back, two more 4 way qualifiers, hopefully Lord Pindar's friends show up in a match.

Unless she's against somebody I really care about I can't watch Sexy Star matches anymore.  I just fast forwarded through it and see no reason to go back to watch it.  She's just a waste of valuable TV time and I won't waste my time putting up with her anymore.  I feel sorry for guys like @Tromatagon and others who had to put up with her shit live.

That said the other two matches were really fun.  Didn't expect Mack to win but I'm happy he did.  I imagine Angelico's going to win next week so so far it'll be Cage/Mack/Angelico.  Really curious who the fourth will be, but that's already shaping up to be a wild final.  I liked the Kobra Moon segment, but her acting was godawful.  Those masks though are tremendous.  And more Matanza/Azteca goodness will be had so I'm very cool with that.

I just watched the Pentagon vs. Triad match from last week (so I'm still a week behind). Wow, that was an amazingly fun match from start to finish. It could have done without Vampiro sounding like he was watching a porno at various times during the match but aside from that, it was everything you really want Intergender wrestling to be...especially the third match. Good lord they were just going to town on each other.

So now that Mundo is champion, are they really setting up an angle down the line for Angelico to be the one to try and dethrone him? Seems odd out of everyone in the company they would go with him. Seeing what they did to Sexy Star, you'd think they'd maybe go to the long shot of The Mack going for the title with him having to go through the entire Underground. Cause at least he's not as injury prone as Angelico.

The Opening match is the best match of the Battle of the Bulls Tourney and there is another thing I want to take about but it spoils the episode so I will wait until more people post about the episode.

For the Sexy Star fast forwarders she has two backstage segments.

DAREWOLF YOU ARE A TERRIBLE HUMAN BEING & FRIEND. GO FUCK YOURSELF.

Two awesome four-ways. How is Jack still alive? He landed on NOTHING. Well, the ground. Which is nothing. HOW ARE YOU ALIVE, JACK? Angelico's bump a second later into the fencing was almost as brutal. I did like the opener better overall though.

LUCHASAURUS ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! The only thing missing was Giant Silva or Giant Gonzalez in the role. Great debut for him & Pindar... unless you're Drago. In which case you're fucked. Aero Star vs Pindar better be coming to my TV soon!

The Worldwide Underground skit was hilarious with the mocking of WWE style segments & Rey is alive so that's always good news.

The only bad thing was Sexy Star's "acting". I hope they eventually release DVD sets and by that point she's on bad enough terms they leave on her outtakes because if the final product is that bad, I can't even begin to imagine how great the ones they can't use are.

Excellent show.

I saw Jack die right in front of me on that dive and I was really really really worried about him and he came out and finished the fucking match.  Props.

Luchasaurus is legit one of the worst wrestlers I've ever seen in my life and makes me think Bill Demott was right all along.  His official name is Vibora which sounds like Vibrator which makes it make sense why they hired such a huge dildo to play him.

There was an absolutely fucking lit Aero Star/Pindar match involving some other people but it was a goddamned dark match - and one of the best of the entire season.  Pindar rules.  Fuck Matt Riddle.

I can't say I was a big fan of Kill Shot taking a Kudo Driver head first onto an open chair and then running 100mph and jump kicking guys a few minutes later, but that's mostly my nitpick of the style.

Is Lucha Saurus just Baron Corbin in a dinosaur mask? Is that why he wasn't on Smackdown on Tuesday? Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen Lucha Saurus and Corbin in the same place at the same time. Hmmmmmmmmm.

The first 4-way was lit. My biggest nitpick was Mariposa as the foundation for the tower of doom, but I can't say I blame her for not wanting to be at the top. Otherwise she didn't look too out of place despite being in there with 3 insane 100+ mph workers. Killshot had a death wish in this match. Crane and Fox are neck and neck for best newcomer in S3.

or Austin from Big Brother 17.

The guy who, after one of those backyard competitions, spat out some harsh lines for a fellow houseguest or two and told guest host Jessie Godderz that he was doing a heel turn. All of this made the CBS prime time show.

BB5 was before my Big Brother fandom so I did not know that. I remember Austin though.

I like the look and have never seen him wrestle but am now less hyped based on Casey's comment. I would hope they'd hide him in trios matches if he's that bad. But if that trio includes Kobra Moon then holy fuck Steve Pain has his work cut out.

Loving Kobra Moon, she rules. Her new group had a great debut thus far. Enjoyed both 4 ways, thought Mariposa had a good showing. Killshot's post-match kick looked good but the double stomp not so much. Thought for sure Angelico would win so was surprised by the finish to the main. Fun episode overall

Yeah my buddy who I watch all the Lucha Underground episodes with can't wait to find out what's behind what Crane grabbed from the ceiling.

It was a Ouija board, you could get a good look at it, when he was talking to Catrina.
