Go2Sleep Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Dario Cueto, while being a psychopath, was also a businessman who liked to have a professional, well-rounded product to keep that payoff drawer full. Catrina's motivations are more ambiguous thus far, but she's clearly got more on her mind than bumper music.
Tromatagon Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Dario wanted us to feel like we were at a violence party.Catrina doesn't give a shit how we feel COME BACK JEFE
RandomAct Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Besides, where would Mil's throne be if there were bands? I just had the urge to watch the All Night Long match again.
GOTNW Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 I kind of want them to make it so that Catrina is actually the devil and runs the temple as her own Hotel California.
Tromatagon Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Issue four of the comic, which reveals what Matanza looks like- http://comicbook.com/2016/03/09/exclusive-read-the-final-issue-of-the-lucha-underground-comic-he/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
Kyuubi Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Look if Matanza is Great Khali, I am fucking not watching the show anymore. 1
GOTNW Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 It's Taurus right? says me, who has watched like two AAA matches this year if that. I don't even know how the guy looks.
Tromatagon Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 No and no and stay off Wikipedia unless you want to know by accident
The Man Known as Dan Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Well that Cage match isn't gonna have people up in arms one bit.
Tromatagon Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 It's okay, he's not a man, he's a machine So they can't cry intergender foul Seriously though I expected a shitstorm just seeing it at the tapings. 1
The Man Known as Dan Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Welp that Triple Threat kicked all sorts of ass.
cubbymark Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 This show was definitely interesting. The opener with the Mariposa reveal was good. Fenix's showcase video was good, the NUNCHUCK FIGHT backstage with Darewolf, Jack Evans and Drago was BOSS. Cage/Taya was, was, I don't know what the hell that was. But that main event, sweet Jesus that main event was amazing. I'm shocked Mil went over as cleanly over both Puma and Pentagon.
JCM Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I loved the main event almost as much as I hated that Cage match. This was basically a bad episode of Power Rangers until the main event. 1
Matt D Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I'm on episode 2 of Season 2 and within range of catching up within a week or two but I really need to start on NXT so I can be caught up by Mania.
Patrick B. Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 That Cage superplex spot was ri-goddamn-diculous.
Robert Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 That main event was ridiculous. Everything that makes everyone love LU right there. You couldn't even blink it was just non-stop action and a decisive clean finish putting the champ over. By miles the best match this season and in the high end stuff from last year too. FENIX VS MIL MUERTES NEXT WEEK! And Angelico's awesome hair! The rest, aside from our hero Aero Star returning, was a mixed bag depending on your tastes. I loved Fenix's video package & him doing a bilingual promo. It wasn't perfect but it's the effort that counts. That's something WWE would never do without turning it into a comedy "hahaha this guy can't talk normal" deal.
Norwegian Rudo Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Any thoughts on the major LU and AAA star who has never worked for the major American companies and who is trying to get into WWE (per the Observer)?
Jamal Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 The triple threat was fantastic. Definitely dug the Mariposa reveal and thought Taya still managed to make a strong in-ring debut, considering who she was up against.
Tromatagon Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Any thoughts on the major LU and AAA star who has never worked for the major American companies and who is trying to get into WWE (per the Observer)? If I had to guess, I would guess Cuerno since he has the biggest shot in getting signed
Robert Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Most definitely Cuerno/Fantasma. He hasn't been shy on twitter lately.
Norwegian Rudo Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Most definitely Cuerno/Fantasma. He hasn't been shy on twitter lately. He's the one who speaks great English, right?
Curt McGirt Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Okay fuck it. I'm breaking down and watching last night's episode even though my net time will be shot afterwards. Thanx to cubsfan for being a gent. - "Ay, gurl" made me laugh. Mack is good as always but that whole angle just insults my intelligence. They're trying to be intentionally campy while also being sexually fucked up... it doesn't work. Then again I own bootlegs of most of the Ilsa films so I might not be one to judge. - Jack didn't flush! When you're immediately involved in a nunchuck battle with a spaceman and a dragon though, it's understandable. - Vamp references Benoit; later he says (not talking about Nancy) "she asked for it". That says just about everything about this match as it went right down the rabbit hole into ECW territory. - At least the Famous B bit had a sense of self-consciousness and intentional humor. Boy this is really back-and-forth. - "Earthquakes, destruction, blood, coffin matches..." Okay Vamp. Three-ways blow but this might be a corker. And sure enough it is, really great sloppy brawl that transitions into the hilarious but logical idea of "well let's just hit the champ with a bunch of topes and superkicks". This is the kind of match that reminds me why I love Lucha Underground, just completely insane work with solid storytelling. Everybody gets crushed but Muertes guts it out and Fenix comes out to cash in for his title shot next episode. This almost makes up for the goofiness/misogyny of everything prior. My net time expired during the viewing but the three-way makes me not regret it -- until the bill comes in the mail, that is.
Jiji Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 That Cage/Taya match definitely made me feel uncomfortable. But if they wrestled a 50/50 match, that would've sucked too. I'm wishy-washy on intergender wrestling but it can be done better than this. Muertes handled the gross size difference with Ivelisse much, much better. That triple threat is one of my favourites of all timez. Constant action for the majority of the match and when it finally trod into WWE territory of "one guy rests on the outside while the other two have a standard match", at least they set up those stretches with the guy taking an ass kicking from the two other competitors. Great match! I also marked out for Aero Star's appearance.
