Here's where you can talk about Lucha Underground's television show.
When you are talking about the newest episodes you might want to talk about them in spoiler tags. Right now I wouldn't worry about it but if someone complains I'll enforce that rule.

I just bought Season 1 on iTunes. I'll try talk about it weekly.
I'll give the show a try. I honestly don't like the idea behind the promotion but I'd be jackass to not give it some kind of chance.

probably my favorite company right now. Their focus on story and how they film their segments is amazing. The talent is top notch and the action is great. Sometimes I feel like they can go a little overboard with the spots or try to be too different, but they at least try different things.

#1.01 - Welcome To The Temple
Blue Demon Jr. and Chavo Guerrero Jr. have a good little match.
First episode and I'm not a fan of what they're doing with men vs. women. Son Of Havoc looks like he can destroy Sexy Star. And they have this match and he beats her in under two minutes. So what was the point of that? We're supposed to buy that Sexy Star is some kind of ass kicker that can take on men but I didn't see that here.
And they did this thing where during Star's entrance they cut away to do a video on her. I don't understand why they didn't wait until before the entrances to do that. That made this feel like it was a TV show or fake rather instead of a sport.
Johnny Mundo and Prince Puma had a fun match. Excellent main event to showcase the promotion on it's first episode.
Then Dario Cueto decides to not give Johnny Mundo the money he promised someone at the beginning of the episode. Oh boy just what we need. Another heel authority figure on a wrestling show. Yeah that hasn't been done to death.
So Ricky Reyes, Ezekiel Jackson and some Hispanic dude attack Johnny Mundo and Prince Puma.
So we got some kind of heel stable. I guess they're Dario Cueto's muscle. I'm not really looking forward to this.
But the main event was good. The first episode was alright. There's things I didn't like but I like Ricochet and he had a good match with Johnny Nitro.

When it comes to the heel authority Figures Dario is a hell of a lot better then a lot of other figure heels. once you go deeper into the show you will enjoy El Jeffe
