Here's a place to check results and comment along with the latest airing of Lucha Underground in its regular Wednesday night at 8PM Eastern time slot on El Rey Network. This space is for you to rave and/or bitch about whatever goes down on the hottest new concept to hit pro wrestling in ages - during its initial broadcast!
El Rey is available via the cable and satellite providers list on their webpage here. If one of those is your hook-up and you can't find the channel on your box, reach out to them and ask for it. If you don't see your provider listed or you've cut the cord, you can find El Rey on the Sling streaming subscription service here and fubo.tv here. Or you can order the episodes on iTunes here.

The show opens with a video in Dario's office. He's talking to a new Luchardor with a black jaguar mask. He gives him an Aztec Medallion and tells him he'll be making his debut in the Gift of the Gods match. This wrestler, named Night Claw, says he's going to prove to everyone he deserves to be on top of Lucha Underground. Dario Cueto warns him that over confidence can be a down fall.

Dario is talking to El Dragon Azteca. Cueto tells him that his brother didn't kill his master. He tells about the match at Ultima Lucha Dos. He says when he gets in the ring with Black Lotus, he'll look into her eyes and realize that she killed his master and not Matanza.

Cortez Castro, Mr. Cisco, & Joey Ryan vs. Killshot, Marty "The Moth" Martinez, and Sinestro del la Muerte. The winning team gets 3 medallions.
Prior to the match, Marty offers Killshot his dog tags as an effort for them all to work together.
Nasty. Early on in he match, Marty steals Joey's lollipop and puts it in his mouth. Marty tries to then give it to Killshot who slaps it away.
It's a match that starts standard but breaks down into typical LU wildness. Mr. Cisco shines in the match and Marty and kill Shot actually work well together. In the end, Mr. Cisco is on fire but Joey gets himself involved in the action and he shoves Cisco. This allows Marty's team to take advantage for the win.
Marty, Killshot, & Sinestro all win an Aztec Medallion
Marty takes back Killshot's dog tags after the match without Killshot noticing.

Sexy Star & Mariposa vs. Ivelisse & Taya where the winning team gets two Medallions
This is a pretty good match with both teams getting along just enough. However, when Sexy Star is working on Taya outside, Mariposa tosses her aside and starts going at Taya instead. Ivelisse hits a cross body from the top rope onto Mariposa and Taya goes back to work on Sexy in the ring.
Sexy Star fights back and Taya ends up tagging in Ivelisse. She and Sexy go back and forth in the middle of the ring. Taya runs in and goes to spear Sexy Star but spears Ivelisse instead. Mariposa takes down Taya and shoves Sexy Star on top of her for the pin.
Sexy Star & Mariposa both win an Ancient Aztec Medallion

Prince Puma has a live mic.
He says that the only match he wants at Ultima Lucha Dos is against Rey Mysterio. He considers Rey the best. But he wonders is he as good as Rey Mysterio? Or maybe... he's better. And he has to know. He asks Rey if he'll take the match.
Mysterio tells Puma he has mad respect. Rey needs to know if he's still the best and accepts the match. The men shake hands.
