Lucha Underground recap for June 10, 2015: "The Desolation of Drago"

The show begins with Drago standing atop of the Temple. He spreads his wings, then descends to the grounds...

In the temple, Dario Cueto is in the ring. He announces a Fatal Four Way #1 Contenders Match for Prince Puma's Lucha Underground Championship. The competitors? Hernandez. King Cuerno. Cage... and Fenix would have been the fourth, but he was destroyed in a Death Match with Mil Muertes. With that, he calls out one of the men who wrestled in Lucha Underground's first-ever match: Blue Demon, Jr., who comes out to a standing ovation. Dario says that to make sure that he doesn't have any ring rust, he sets up a match between Blue Demon and his arch-nemesis, Chavo Guerrero, Jr. (who is now accompanied by remaining members of The Crew, Mr. Cisco and Cortez Castro), and Dario says that "anything goes".

Chavo Guerrero, Jr. quickly beats Blue Demon, Jr. when The Crew (Mr. Cisco & Cortez Castro) aids him in hitting his signature Frog Splash.

Drago makes his glorious entrance into the temple.

The debuting Disciples of Death beats Bengala, Pimpinela Escalarta and Mascarita Sagrada.




Dario Cueto makes a deal with Drago: either win the #1 contender's match, or continue to be banished, but this time without his mask. He makes it a deal.

Johnny Mundo is in Dario Cueto's office, and he is pissed that he is not in the number one contender's match for the title. Dario says that if he wants to prove that he is the top wrestler in Lucha Underground, he signs him up for match against Prince Puma... All. Night. Long. The two shake on it and make it official.

Drago beats Cage, Hernandez and King Cuerno to become #1 contender for the Lucha Underground Championship, and he earns the right to keep his mask. Prince Puma steps into the ring and the champion and challenger have a stare down.


Meanwhile, Dario Cueto is peeking out the window when suddenly a finger taps him. When he sees no one, he continues to look out the window. He then turns around again to find Catrina sitting behind his desk. She is upset with the fact that Cueto did not put Mil Muertes in the number one contender's match tonight. When he doesn't give her a clear answer, she proceeds to nearly choking the life out of him, until he makes a deal to have Drago defend his number one contendership against Mil Muertes. Satisfied, she lets him go and disappears.

Here are the highlights from tonight's show!
