While it hasn't left the scene, Lucha Underground's top prize has taken second stage a bit during the just concluded Trios tournament and the blow-off of feuds and series between the likes of Fenix, Mil Muertes, Drago and AeroStar.
In addition to weaving multiple programs into and from the tournament won (twice!) by Angelico, Son of Havoc & Ivellise last week, Dario Cueto ensured that the best of five series between Drago and AeroStar would dovetail right back into his World title when he gave the luchador from the netherworld a shot at Prince Puma's belt for his victory...with a price. If he fails to claim the belt, Drago is exiled from The Temple!
It's champion vs. career!
Our exclusive advance clip this week also features the devious Dario (who is still my homeboy, even if he's a dick). The owner gives Puma a "pep talk" to help him over any babyface issues he may be having about facing Drago, and then he calms Hernandez down about his Triple Threat with Cage and King Cuerno - in a way designed to further drive a wedge between Konnan's guys...
