Yes
LOL, I caught that also.
He needs to fund his new temple somehow. Peddling $20 from his brother's meals isn't enough in this economy.

We need a follow up to the add in a scene on the next episode where the contestant is so ecstatic to get into her brand new Prius that she doesn't notice Matanza waiting for her inside.

He's also in the next episode of Always Sunny, masquerading as a Doctor. Sneaky.
We need something in his return skit talking about how he's been busy.

Is this for the belt? Looks like it might be Fenix vs Mil 3.
Including
Big Ryck and Hernandez
Tremendous episode, tremendous main event, and that ending swerve is out of control! What a time to be alive!
Thought it was a pretty weak episode by LU standards. Kobra Moon's debut was extremely underwhelming, Drago/Evans was a disappointment, and Cuerno/Fenix was worse than their match in the premiere. Best part of the show was the
Joey Ryan
With that said, it was still better than every episode of Raw I've seen over the last year.

Really enjoyed tonight's episode.
Jack Evans is a great heel. Dragons was great
Current and Felix works so well together.
Loved the Texans video
The ending was pretty cool neat.
Looks like pentagon vs puma next week

I feel like the only PWG fan on the internet that
still likes Joey Ryan

The did in the first episode. They said Mundo sacred him away
In the ring? No. He made a brief cameo on last week's episode.

Oh did they? I must have missed that, was it in his workout segment? Most of that got cut off in the completely legit dvr recording of the show i watched

so did they imply last night that aerostar is a time traveler?

Google tells me it was episode 2?

yes it was , my mistake.
also i love how they turned the entire show around last night. Turing a jobber into an important character is something that only LU could do.

Is there a way to watch season 1, legally?

I'm sort of a pro wrestling ex-pat, was big into WWF/WCW back in the Attitude Era, quit watching honestly the day after the whole Chris Benoit tragedy. I've caught some PPVs here and there but nothing near the level I used to be at.
THIS show however, is a breath of fucking fresh air. It's so over-the-top but played so serious, I can't explain it. The video segments, the camera angles, the entrances, the bizarre storylines involving some belt that's infused with stones from the Gods or some shit? Fuck if I know but it's amazing. I've only watched Season 2 so far but every episode has at least one spot where I just cringe in disbelief. I'm just coming to grips with what the face/heel dynamics are but I'm absolutely hooked.

Lucha Underground's ratings for this week was 136,000, which was up from last week's. Glad to see an uphill trend to the ratings, even though I thought this week's episode, King Cuerno vs Fenix aside, didn't really do nothing for me.

This week looks like Joey Ryan's debut plus texano returns
And the main event is prince puma vs Pentagon
And the main event is prince puma vs Pentagon
I was thinking we'd have to wait a bit longer to get that main event.
Can't wait for Puma v Pentagon!
They could have delayed that match a bit longer but I think they have plenty of things they need to do for future episodes... so fuck it, give it to me now!
Kobra Moon was really disappointing, so hopefully she'll be relegated to multi-person matches from here on out so I don't feel like they're wasting time on a match with her when we could get more Aeostar, Drago, Pentagon, Fenix, Mil, Cuerno, Puma, Mundo, Rey, Ryan, Mack, PJ, etc... gawd there are a lot of great wrestlers on this show and I didn't even name them all.

Agree on Kobra Moon. Ophidian is a better snake style wrestler. It's a shame they couldn't get The Osirian Portal complete with gimmick for LU.

Matanza is being possessed by an Aztec god, huh? If it's Huitzilopochtli everything is fucked.

Pretty damn good episode. Better than last week's, of course. Really liked the Cage vs. Joey Ryan match.
Finally, anything with Pentagon Jr. is absolute gold.

With rising ratings, the big question is, how do you make the show appeal to non-wrestling fans? I think it has crossover potential with the science fiction and urban fantasy crowd. Obviously you're going to want the series on demand with a wider platform for people to access the show, but beyond that....what do you do to advertise it to these viewers who might not consider a wrestling product?

I honestly don't know. But, I do enjoy the previews and commercials. They embrace the cheesyness and tv show aspect.
If anything it's the limited availability that hinders the show's expansion.
