Lucha Underground producer Eric Van Wagenen was a guest on “The Steve Austin Show” this week, and when asked about the future of Lucha Underground, Wagenen had the following to say:

“El Rey has absolutely wants us back. They’ve given us an offer on the table, they want us back 40 more episodes, ‘we’d love to have you start airing in October. We want you back.’ Now, what we’re trying to do as an organization, is we’re trying to maintain this certain level of production value. There’s the amount of money El Rey is giving us, and then there’s this amount of money that we need to spend in order to keep the same level of quality that we’ve established. […] It’s a high production value, we put a lot of emphasis on the production value, we don’t cut any corner. So now, what we are doing is, myself and the other El Rey executives and the investors and Mark Burnett and the people who work at the United Artist Media group – there is a combined effort to bridge that gap, between the money El Rey is giving us and the money we need. All options are on the table, whether that’s Netflix, iTunes, a secondary broadcast partner, or DVD sales, merchandise, you name it, everything’s on the table. The money guys are trying to close that gap, and once we have that gap closed, we’re announcing.”

ECW Original Advised to Retire

According to PWInsider.com, Sabu, who has two broken bones in his shoulder, has been advised by doctors to retire. As opposed to heeding the doctor’s advice, it’s being said Sabu boarded a plane to Europe instead to work more indy dates.

I think the whole first season of Lucha Underground should be put on Netflix. That be awesome

Sabu what are you doing?
