We look back on the history between Pentagon, Jr. and his master, El Vampiro from last season. Vampiro tells Pentagon not to let anything get in his way...not even "her."

"The Dragonslayer" Jack Evans takes the microphone from ring announcer Melissa Santos and announces his own ring entrance, much to the displeasure of the people in the temple. He also says that he'll make Drago "his little bitch" if he shows up again.

"The Dragonslayer" Jack Evans beats "The Darewolf" PJ Black after Drago, who shows up to distract Evans with some nunchaku, accidentally spits green mist into PJ Black's face. Black picks up the nunchaku as Drago slinks away, looks at them, then throws them down in digust.

Famous B is on a TV commercial, telling people to call the number on the screen so he can make them famous.

As Matanza destroys more victims, Black Lotus and Dario Cueto talk. Cueto talks about how his brother Matanza saved his life when their mother physically abused them. Cueto carries a figurine of a red bull, which Matanza used to hit their mother in the back of the head repeatedly, putting an end to the beatings. It was on that day that Cueto learned to love violence.

Pentagon Jr. confronts Catrina, saying Prince Puma humiliated him and must be taught a lesson. Catrina tells him to go and teach him on. Pentagon Jr. wants Prince Puma in the ring again, but Catrina is reluctant after Pentagon Jr. broke Mil Muertes' arm. The two fight, and Pentagon Jr. is close to breaking Catrina's arm when the lights go on and off and Catrina teleports away. She gives him the match for next week, but tells him that putting his hands on her was the biggest mistake he ever made.

Johnny Mundo beats Cage after using a lead pipe to hit Cage in the head behind the ref's back, thanks to AAA women's wrestler Taya Valkyrie, who supplies Mundo with the weapon and distracts the ref. They both attack Cage after the match

King Cuerno enters Catrina's office. He wants a shot at Mil Muertes and the Lucha Underground Championship next week, saying that he is tired of being hunted. Catrina tells him they had a deal, however, and says that he's already booked for a match next week against Fenix. This time, not only will the Gift of the Gods Championship be on the line, but it will also be a ladder match, after telling him that Fenix can fly and that she hopes King Cuerno can, too.

As Prince Puma is training backstage, he reminisces about his title match against Mil Muertes at Ultima Lucha. Pentagon Jr appears and thanks him for last week and volunteers Puma to be his partners and continue to break bones with him and destroy The Disciple of Death. Pentagon laughs invidiously, before he and Puma exchange blows...with Puma gaining the upper hand and walking away.

Johnny Mundo beats Killshot. After the match, he says that the earthquake that Mil Muertes (who sits on his throne atop the entrance) felt as a little boy, is nothing compared to the end of the world. Cage appears on the rafters and he's clearly not impressed with Mundo, and hr actually is siding with Mil Muertes. Cage wants a fight, and when faces Mundo in the ring, the latter back down. Mundo sneak attacks Cage...only for Cage to gain the upper hand, and Mundo retreats.

We see a room where Sexy Star was kidnapped by Marty "The Moth" Martinez, who puts a moth in her face as he sickly says that "she has nothing to be afraid of". He says that he's going to bring his sister with him to the temple, but he will be with her as she arrives...

Johnny Mundo beats Alberto el Patron with a surprise assistance from his longtime partner Melina Perez, who has not been in a ring in nearly five years. After the match, the two lip lock in the ring. Alberto comes from behind and throws Mundo outside the ring and attacks him, and slams his head into a window (much like what Mundo did to him). Melina throws a drink at El Patron and fights back, before he turns her around and spanks her. Alberto winks at her and stands tall.

Dragon Azteca finds Black Lotus in the cell. Once she asks him whether he was coming for her, Dario Cueto shows up with the key to Black Lotus' cell. Suddenly, Black Lotus chokes out her trainer, putting him out. Pleased with what he sees, Dario finally releases her from the cell. She refuses to leave with him, since she "got what she wanted". Black Ltous asks Dario what is he going to do about his "brother". He uses the key to unlock Matanza's cell...

Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for July 22, 2015

Dario Cueto talks with Big Ryck in his office, and tells him he had big plans in the temple until he lost focus. Dario now wants him back in the spotlight, and he wants him to get back in there with one of the Aztec Medallions, which he offers him. Cueto asks him if he wants money or power. Big Ryck tells him "Why choose when I can have both?" Not surprisingly, he gets both.

Texano beats Johnny Mundo by disqualification after interference by The Crew (Mr. Cisco and Cortex Castro). Alberto El Patron shows up and destroys everyone, then Texano hits whoever is laying with the bullwhip. Alberto and Texano almost confront one another due to their past feud, but Alberto El Patron walks away.

Hernandez is in Dario Cueto's office. Cueto is making Ultima Lucha two weeks long and Hernandez vs. Drago will be a Believer's Backlash match, where the strap is held by one of the fan and whoever finds the person who has it gets to use it.

The Mack quickly beats Cage. After the match, Cage and Mack brawl, and security officials also get beat up and tossed around as the fight almost spills into the back. Dario Cueto shows up and makes a Falls Count Anywhere between them with weapons around the ring as he announces that Ultima Lucha starts a week early. He also prepares to announce what the Aztec Medallions are for.

Dario Cueto tells everyone that the seven Aztec Medallions make up The Gift of the Gods: a championship belt that grants the holder a shot at the Lucha Underground Championship whenever they want, with a catch: you have to give one week's notice in order for the match to be promoted. Once the title is cashed in, the Aztec Medallions are removed and re-distributed, and the fight for power begins again. Cueto sets up a seven-way match between all those who have earned Aztec Medallions, whom he calls to the ring. Jack Evans, Aerostar, King Cuerno, Sexy Star, Bengala and Big Ryck (who was given an Aztec Medallion by Cueto) show up. They place their medallions into the belt to secure their spot in the match for the title, but there is one problem: Mil Muertes destroyed Fenix. Cueto puts Fenix's medallion back up for grabs, when Fenix suddenly shows up. He puts Fenix in a battle royal for the Aztec Medallion he earned...and that battle royal is next

Fenix wins a battle royal to regain the Aztec Medallion he initially earned before being taken down by Mil Muertes.

Prince Puma, now in a black mask, shows up to speak, but before he can do that, Mil Muertes and Catrina appear. Puma drops the microphone and lays down the belt, and tells Mil Muertes to come and get it. As he does, The Disciples of Death (Barrio Negro, El Siniestro de la Muerte and Terce) show up to attack Puma, but Puma strikes back and lays them all out to send a message to Mil Muertes. Mil Muertes then gets in the ring and the two of them brawl, but Prince Puma easily overpowers Mil Muertes.

Here are the highlights for tonight's show!

Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for July 8, 2015

Pentagon, Jr. is talking  with a mysterious figure, who seems to be his master. He says that Vampiro is not the man that he once was, and he vows to destroy him at Ultima Lucha.

The Mack gets an upset victory over Cage with a quick roll-up.

Son of Havoc is in the locker room as a finger reaches out and touches him. It is revealed to be Catrina's, as she says that not only are the Disciples of Death are coming for the Trios titles, but 1,000 deaths will be coming for him at the expense of Mil Muertes. Ivelisse tells her to back off, and as she grabs for Catrina, the lights suddenly go out and Angelico walks in to his partners (and former couple) being in a rather uncompromising position, which makes Angelico think that they are getting back together... which they deny.

Vampiro interviews Pentagon, Jr. He apologizes for attacking him several weeks ago. He compares Pentagon's dangerous ways to his early days as a wrestler. However, Vampiro says that he's a changed man and that his demeaning days have passed. Pentagon, who has refuted questions the entire interviews, nearly gets physical with Vampiro (who, shockingly enough kept his cool) before storming off.

Mil Muertes beats Son of Havoc. During the match, the Disciples of Death attack Ivelisse and Angelico at ringside following a distraction by Catrina.

Texano is in the ring. He says that he has always been Mexico, despite not being trusted by the ones that are closest to him, and that the last thing he will do is turn his back on his people. He says that he doesn't care about them, but he hates Chavo for being a traitor against his country. Suddenly, The Crew (Mr. Cisco & Cortez Castro) attacks Texano until Blue Demon rushes to his aid, only for him to turn his back on Texano and joins forces with The Crew. He grabs mic and says that he, not Texano is Mexico, and he is going to have to fight him to prove his worth.

Drago will take on Hernandez at Ultima Lucha!

Team Mundo (Johnny Mundo, Super Fly, Hernandez and Jack Evans) beats Team Alberto (Alberto El Patron, Sexy Star, Aerostar and Drago) in an Atomicos match.

Prince Puma will meet Mil Muertes face-to-face next week!

Pentagon attacks Vampiro from behind and hits him with a chair. Pentagon says that Vampiro is afraid of him, and then reaches for some gasoline. After douching the gasoline on Vampiro, Pentagon lights a lighter and says that he has one week to decide on whether he wants to fight him at Ultima Lucha, so he can deemed as a sacrifice to his master. The show fades right when Pentagon looks to drop the lighter on Vampiro.

Here are highlights from tonight's show!

Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for June 17, 2015

In tonight's episode, Prince Puma defends the Lucha Underground Championsip against his arch-nemesis, Johnny Mundo, in which has been billed an "All Night Long" event. Lucha Underground owner Dario Cueto rules that the man with the most pinfalls and/or submissions by the end of the night will be the champion!

With a final score of 5-4, and just seven seconds to spare, Prince Pumas beats Johnny Mundo in an incredible match to retain the Lucha Underground Championship! During the match, Johnny Mundo tried to let time pass by getting the guest musicians to play music from atop of the stage, while Puma was laid out on the ground at ringside. Also, Alberto El Patron makes his return since he was brutally assaulted by Mundo to gt revenge on the latter. He grabs the mic and says that his problems with Mundo are far from over, and that if Puma retains the title tonight (which he ultimately did), he had better watch his back.

Here are the highlights from this incredible match!

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!

Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for May 6, 2015

Johnny Mundo and Alberto El Patron are in Dario Cueto's office. They both feel that they deserve a shot at Prince Puma's Lucha Underground Championship. El Patron goes as far as to say that he deserves a shot more than the actual number one contender, Hernandez, who sleazed his way into changing the standard triple threat match into a #1 contender's match last week. With this, Dario Cueto holds up slips of paper with both their names on them, setting up the main event match for tonight, in which the winner will face Hernandez next week to determine the true number one contender for the Lucha Underground Championship.

Ivelisse, who is on crutches due to a leg injury, sits in the audience and torts out orders to her partners.

The Crew (Cortez Castro & Mr. Cisco) beats Son of Havoc & Angelico.

Dario Cueto now has DelAvar Daivari, the man who took out Texano a couple of weeks ago. Cueto acknowledges him for his bravery, and sets up a match between the latter and Texano tonight. Meanwhile, in the locker room, Konnan blasts Hernandez for what he did in Prince Puma's title match against Drago last week. Hernandez felt that he saved his title match, but Puma isn't trying to hear any of it. Dario Cueto overhears the fuss, pleased with what he hears, and sets up Hernandez and Puma to tag against Cage and King Cuerno later tonight.

DelAvar Daivari beats Texano by disqualification with Texano pushes the referee to get to Daivari. The two brawl in the ring afterwards.

Cage and King Cuerno beats Prince Puma and Hernandez after Hernandez powerbombs Prince Puma on the turnbuckle and takes a walk out of the match, leaving Puma to fend for himself.

Black Lotus is still determined to leave and fend for herself, but El Dragon Azteca refuses to see her suffer the same fate as her parents. He then give her the ultimatum - if she beats him, she can leave. After a short series of blocks from both sides, Dragon Azteca gains the upper hand, and says that she has a better chance of survival than her parents if she stays with him. Reluctantly enough, she blows out her candle and stays.

Alberto El Patron beats Johnny Mundo in a fast-paced, chaotic match to earn the right to face Hernandez to determine the true number one contender to Prince Puma's Lucha Underground Championship!

Catrina sends a cryptic message about the afterlife. She is standing in front of a casket, which revealed to has the deceased Mil Muertes inside. She orders Ricky Banderas to come back alive as Mil Muertes, and just like the famous Frankenstein scene, he comes back to life.

Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for April 15, 2015

As Aerostar stands atop of  the Lucha Underground Temple, the proprietor Dario Cueto lurks from behind. He says that Aerostar will need more luck than wishes upon a star, as he believes that Drago isgoing unleash his fires of hell on him to get a taste of Cuerno's "unique opportunity".

King Cuerno, Cage and Texano beats Prince Puma, Johnny Mundo, and Hernandez to advance to the finals of the Lucha Underground Trios Tag Team Championship Tournament.

Dario Cueto runs into Drago, who is preparing for his match against Aerostar. Cueto says that there's an "unique opportunity" on the line, and he better bring his A game.

Pentagon, Jr., who is not scheduled to be in the ring tonight, is in the ring. He whispers to ring announcer Melissa Santos to announce that tonight's sacrifice was dedicated to "his master"... which happens to be Melissa herself. While struggling against Pentagon, color commentator Vampiro won't stand for this, and goes to the ring for the save... not before Sexy Star swoops in and saves Melissa.

Since Melissa Santos is too shaken to announce the main event, Dario Cueto decides to take on the task, and remind everyone that the winner will earn one of his "famous and unique opportunities".

Dario Cueto is at ringside for the main event match.

Drago beats Aerostar to win the final match in the Best of Five Series, and the two shake hands in respect. Dario Cueto congratulates Drago for the win. The "famous, unique opportunity"?

Underground Sound - Lucha Underground Recap for February 11, 2015

Dario Cueto chats with Alberto El Patron, who has some things to get off his chest tonight.

Fenix defeated Argenis with the piledriver. Catrina crawls into the ring in a possessed sensual style on top of a beaten Argenis, staring at Fenix as she does it. Fenix makes a run for it, while Catrina sadistically looks on.

Alberto El Patron arrives as he makes his Lucha Underground debut tonight!

Catrina is walking backstage when she runs into Mil Muertes. She tells him that he needs to - before she finished her sentence, Mil Muertes grabs her up in a chokehold and yells at her in Spanish before putting her down. Moments later, Mil Muertes is walking down the halls and Chavo Guerrero happens to pop up. Muertes grabs Chavo by his neck and slams him against the walls.

A mysterious man is asking God to forgive him, for he is going to sin. Throughout the promo, there are vignettes of The Crew (Bael, Cisco and Cortez Castro) attacking Johnny Mundo and Big Ryck. At the end of the promo, Big Ryck appears, smoking his cigar and saying that he is going back to the Old Testament and he makes it simple: "Vengeance shall be his."

Alberto calls the audience his family and that he is finally here in Lucha Underground. He talks about his legendary wrestling family including Mil Mascaras and Dos Caras and how they taught him about the passions about the wrestling business, and how he became a wrestling icon in the country he had to conquer, the United States. He says in Spanish, "Back there, they embraced me, but when I turn around they stabbed me in the back." and that he is the first Luchador to hold every major title in North America. He refuses to be held back because of the color of his skin or getting the job (but he boldly says that he gets the job done), and that the Revolution of Alberto El Patron has begun, but out of nowhere, Alberto's  rival El Texano, Jr. makes his debut and attacks him from behind.

REVIEW

Sup, everyone and welcome to the February 11, 2015 edition of the Lucha Underground recap. Things are heating up tonight, especially with highly-anticipated debut of Alberto El Patron and various feuds throughout company. Topics that I will be focusing on tonight are Big Ryck's vengeance, Catrina's sadistic desires, and Alberto El Patron's debut. Without further ado, lets get started.

Big Ryck's Vengeance

One of the highlights of tonight's episode, in my opinion is the backstage promo with Big Ryck. A couple of weeks prior to this, The Crew (Bael, Cisco, and Cortez Castro) turned their back on Big Ryck, much to the satisfaction of Dario Cueto. Throughout the promo, there were vignettes shown of The Crew doing their dirty work. All I have to say is, The Crew had better have eyes in the back of their heads, because now Big Ryck is going OLD TESTAMENT on them, and as he said in his promo: "Vengeance shall be mine." Oh, I cannot wait for him to return. I feel that something memorable is going to happen, and I'm glad that he said his prayers, because he's going to be doing some major sinning!

Catrina's Sadistic Desires

So, we've seen a good amount of Catrina on the big screen more than usual tonight. First, she peered up at ringside during Fenix's match against Argenis, and she sexually and creepily crawled on top of Argenis after the match. Also, she got into some sort of an "altercation" with Mil Muertes, who grabbed her up in a chokehold, but she seemed to enjoy it. To be honest, I do not know what is going to happen and who is going after who, but I know that someone's going to left broken and battered afterwards. Maybe Catrina has some sadistic Fenix fetish or something (haha). Another thing that I learned is that never mess Mil Muertes when he is angry (and Chavo Guerrero found that out tonight)!

Alberto El Patron's debut

Alberto El Patron's debut tonight was nothing sort of awesome! He came out to a thunderous ovation from the crowd in the Temple and he was able to get some things off his chest that's been on his mind for quite some time. In his promo (which is much better than his promo work I've heard in the past), there was one thing he said that stood out to me, which he said in Spanish, "Back there, they embraced me, but when I turn around they stabbed me in the back." When he said this, I knew exactly who he was talking about... his situations with the WWE. Since being released, he has had some critical things to say about the WWE - from the pay to the underutilized talent (to who he says that they should go to the Indies if they had the talent, because money has to be made). I can tell that he is happy where he is, and if ya ask me, I think that this a great move by Lucha Underground to sign El Patron. Another thing that stood out to me was the blindside attack by El Texano, Jr., whom Alberto beat for the AAA World Heavyweight Championship. This debut was not acknowledged, which makes things a bit more interesting. I can come up with a good number of scenarios: such as El Texano, Jr. and Alberto El Patron going at it for the AAA title in Lucha Underground, which can be huge for both promotions, or the two having a deep storyline to continue their feud from AAA, which is also good for both companies. Whatever the case, El Texano, Jr.'s attack changed the complexion of things, and things will only get more intesne in the coming weeks.

That's a good load for you guys this week. Tune in next week for another Lucha Undeground review. LUCHA! LUCHA! LUCHA!

Review

Sup, everyone and welcome to the February 4th, 2015 edition of the Lucha Underground review! As always, Lucha Underground continues to deliver and they continue to get better with each passing episode. Tonight's main topics I'm going to be covering are: Cuerno targeting Mundo, continued "Conquest for Matanza", Catrina's motivations, and the arrival. This hsoule be a relatively short one, but I'll make the best of it. Without further ado, let's get started!

Cuerno Targeting Mundo!

Tonight during the main event of Cage vs. Johnny Mundo, King Cuerno was watching the match from the rafters of the Lucha Underground Temple. Why? Well, we will find out nearing what seemed to be the end of the match, but Cuerno sets his target on Mundo, attacking him ruthlessly with a chair, injuring his knee in the process. This not only shows that Cuerno is on the hunt more than ever, but he may have a bone to pick with Mundo. Whatever the case, this was an interesting scenario, and now I want to see Mundo's reaction to the attack.

Continued "Conquest for Matanza"

Last week, the mysterious lady appeared in Cueto's office looking for Matanza. However, it seems that Cueto is on the hunt for Matanza. I have many scenarios for how this Matanza mystery will pan out. One: the mysterious lady is posing a trap. Two: "Matanza" may be someone on the roster. Three: Dario Cueto may know about Matanza. To sum it all up, the possibilities are endless...

Catrina's Motivation

As Fenix was training with the punching bag, Catrina appears out of nowhere and seduces him with her beauty and sadistic desires. She shares a kiss with him, but tells him not to tell anyone about it. So, my thing about this is what is the story behind Catrina kissing him? I think that this is all a set up, because of Fenix defeating her main squeeze, Mil Muertes last week. However, maybe there is something that Catrina feels about Fenix, and she may use her seduction tactics to take him under her wing.

Arrival of Alberto El Patron!

He's heeeeeeeeeeeeeeere! Finally. Alberto El Patron makes his Lucha Underground debut, but where does he go from here? Now, lets not make the assumption that Alberto's going to be the huge star of Lucha Underground. Is he a viable candidate? Yes! Should he be pushed into it? No! To be honest, having someone in the caliber of Alberto El Patron can only make things better for the company, especially since Alberto is already familiar to American wrestling fans (WWE, anybody?). Also, Luch Underground has helped Alberto a great deal behind the scenes with problems with his former employer, WWE so what better to pay back for all the help? I am very excited to see Alberto El Patron in a company that is clearly his comfort zone. and I know he is looking to tear the house down!

Well, that's it for me, folks. Until next week, keep on flyin'! LUCHA! LUCHA! LUCHA!

Johnny Mundo is in the ring and is still looking from a payoff from Dario Cueto. Instead of receiving Cueto, he gets Big Ryck, who threatens to put him through another table… before Mundo dives on Big Ryck. Konnan appears from the top of the rafters and warns Mundo that Prince Puma will no longer have his back. Puma comes out of nowhere and hits the missile dropkick on Big Ryck, followed by a double dropkick by Mundo and Puma. Suddenly, Puma and Mundo go at it, and both are separated by security.

Lucha Underground Results for November 5th, 2014

Dario Cueto’s crew: Big Ryck, Cisco and Ricky Reyes, the three men who decimated Johnny Mundo and Prince Puma last week, showed up and trash the crowd and the latter duo. However, this did not last long, as Johnny Mundo goes on a warpath! Big Ryck manages to escape, but Cisco and Reyes stayed on the attack and out comes Prince Puma. Lucha Underground owner Dario Cueto comes out and sets up an impromptu tag team match: Mundo & Puma vs. Cisco & Reyes.
