00:00This is a temple where we honor ancient traditions.
00:04Courage, honor, and violence.
00:08Blue Demon Jr. and Chavo Guerrero
00:10represent the old guard of Lucha Libre.
00:13I thought for sure you would earn the first victory in my temple
00:16and prove to the world that the Guerrero family
00:19is the greatest luchador family in history.
00:23Damn, Chavo tapped out.
00:26Since you didn't finish the job tonight,
00:29next week I will have to bring in an opponent who will.
00:32I am Katrina.
00:34Mel sends a message.
00:36A taste before a thousand deaths.
00:39I have just signed a deal with the biggest former free agent in the business.
00:43But I signed him only to make an example of him.
00:48It's an ambush. Johnny and Puma are down.
00:52These guys, they work for me.
00:54Johnny Mundo, you need to stay away from him
00:57because his fight ain't your fight.
01:00You got Blue Demon facing the dark.
01:03Mil muertes, a thousand deaths.
01:06Can't check it straight up, ass whooping.
01:09Death to Blue Demon Jr.
01:12Again with the stone.
01:14There's Chavo Guerrero coming to Blue Demon's aid.
01:18No way Chavo will let Mel destroy that great heritage.
01:22What the...
01:24Chavo's going off.
01:26Here come some luchadores.
01:28Smack, there's another.
01:30Here comes Sexy Star trying to plead to Chavo.
01:33Mi familia numero uno.
01:35It's my family's number one.
01:38Chavo Guerrero just crossing the line.
01:40What is Chavo's motivation?
01:43Chavo! Chavo! Chavo!
02:13Chavo! Chavo! Chavo!
02:16Chavo! Chavo! Chavo!
02:19Chavo! Chavo! Chavo!
02:22Chavo! Chavo! Chavo!
02:25Chavo! Chavo! Chavo!
02:28Yo man, this place has everybody coming out of the woodworks.
02:35Wait till you see the guys I'm bringing you from Mexico.
02:39These are some of the best the country has to offer.
02:42There's Fenix, Pentagon Jr., and Drago.
02:47These luchadores, they're on point like a decimal.
02:51So, the rumors about the visa problems are not true?
02:56I had a couple issues at the border, but it's been handled.
03:00You know, Dario, you talk about you want the best fighters in the world.
03:05But in all actuality, without these boys, you don't have much of a lead.
03:12Are they ready to fight tonight?
03:15Oh yes, they stay ready. That way they don't have to get ready, jefe.
03:20How about this?
03:22I take the best three young luchadores from Mexico
03:26and put them all in a match against each other.
03:33May the best man win.
03:36That sounds real good.
03:53Hello everybody and welcome back to Lucha Underground here at the Temple.
03:57We thank you for riding with El Rey.
03:59And last week, we saw Blue Demon Jr. suffer a terrible injury.
04:03Vamp, do you have an update?
04:04Yes, I do. And he is in stable condition.
04:06We got word from the hospital and I just wish him a speedy recovery.
04:08All right, let's take it to the ring. It's time for Lucha Underground.
04:12Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome your host, promoter, and owner of Lucha Underground,
04:19Dario Cueto.
04:21Melissa Santos, our ring announcer, introduces us to Dario Cueto.
04:25There's the man that signs the checks.
04:27Last week, Dario dangled $100,000 of his own money over the head of the luchadores.
04:33We really got to see the personality of our owner, Vampiro.
04:36Yeah, he signs the checks, but he doesn't pay up.
04:38I don't understand. $100,000 and he ran away.
04:41I don't understand. $100,000 and he ran away.
04:54Gracias. Thank you very much.
04:58And welcome to my temple.
05:02So, I've been hearing people saying that there is not enough lucha in Lucha Underground.
05:09No, we don't have lucha. No, we don't have lucha.
05:14Well, if there is one thing that I do, it's give people what they want.
05:20You want lucha? I've got lucha for you.
05:33Feast your eyes on El Mariachi Loco.
05:39Where's the rest of the band?
05:44Not only does he play a mean trumpet, he's also crazy in this ring.
05:50And I discovered him myself, just on the street at my favorite Mexican restaurant.
05:56And after he wins his match, maybe he will play a nice song for you all.
06:04After he wins his match, maybe he will play a nice song for you all.
06:09First, he will impress you all with his luchador skills.
06:24Because there is no challenge too big for El Mariachi Loco.
06:29El Mariachi Loco.
06:33Dario Cueto, two weeks ago, dangled $100,000 of his own money over the head of the locker room.
06:39We got insight into Dario's personality. And now, Mas Lucha.
06:46His opponent, from Cañitas de Feliz de Pescador, Zacatecas, Mexico,
06:52he is El Pequeño Tigre Blanco, Mascarita Sagrada.
07:00That's one of the original creations of the original owner of Triple A, Antonio Peña, and Paz Descanso.
07:07There he is, the one and only Mascarita Sagrada.
07:11How are you brother?
07:12Alright, you say it every week, the doors are open, not only to the pro wrestlers and the MMA's and the boxers and the athletes, but the minis as well.
07:23We do not discriminate here at Lucha Underground.
07:27Now check this out, and he's already a crowd favorite, they know, listen to that.
07:31Mascarita!
07:34Sorry.
07:35Hey, that's okay, it's alright to be excited around here.
07:39That means the sacred mask, he's a mystical being, a mystical character, I'm not sure what to make of it, but I can guarantee you, you're gonna get your wig peeled back right off the bat.
07:49Now the ITA and Mascarita of course would imply a smaller mask as opposed to Mascara Sagrada, the larger sized wrestler in Luchador and Triple A?
07:57Yeah, probably.
08:00Alright, here we go.
08:04El Mariachi Loco signaling for a timeout.
08:06He just got here, he can't come and break already.
08:10Alright, now I'm gonna try to break this down from a physical standpoint.
08:12Obviously Sagrada's gonna have a speed advantage and Loco's gonna enjoy a height advantage.
08:17What else can you chime in on here, Vamp?
08:19Well, this is Lucha Libre at its best, brother.
08:21You're already gonna see this here at Lucha Underground.
08:23Well, this is of course Dario Cueto, everyone's saying that they want more Lucha, more Luchy, can't get any more Lucha Libre than this.
08:30This is just not cool.
08:32He's gonna, brother, boom!
08:35There you go, a little Mascarita, quick!
08:37I love it, and Sagrada has to stay close because of the, pardon me, the short limbs.
08:42Decrease the striking distance.
08:44I don't even think he had a duck on that one.
08:46Oh, here we go.
08:47Nice, Tilt-A-Whirl Headscissors around the world we go!
08:57Mascarita using the ring to his advantage as well.
09:00Everything is a weapon inside the ring.
09:03Quick, he's very quick, brother.
09:06Pass by, body scissors, into the arm drag.
09:09Arm drag, he's outside!
09:10Mascarita winding up for Victor Peña!
09:13Mascarita!
09:14Toma!
09:16Cannonball!
09:17Flying cannonball!
09:24Brother, a flying cannonball for Mascarita, Sagrada, Junior, Chico.
09:28Now what's the politically correct term here?
09:30Uh, fun.
09:31Okay, I'll take that.
09:32Rock and roll, dude.
09:33Yeah, we live in a society that's way too uptight.
09:35Just have fun.
09:42Big front kick by Loco.
09:44He booted Sagrada halfway across the ring.
09:47Well, the crowd booing here, but Mariachi Loco has every right to fire back on Mascarita.
09:59Oh!
10:03Again, the body scissors.
10:05One, two!
10:09Referee Justin Borden right in the middle of the action here.
10:13Mariachi Loco supposedly works in a Mexican restaurant down the street.
10:18Yes, he does.
10:19I ate there last night.
10:21Mascarita!
10:23Mascarita!
10:24Mascarita!
10:25Mascarita!
10:26Mascarita!
10:27Mascarita!
10:29And again, trying to break this down.
10:31You'll notice the placement of the rear chin lock.
10:33Mascarita has nowhere to go.
10:40Ooh!
10:41Wow!
10:42I don't even know what to call that, except ouch.
10:45Cover here.
10:46Over here.
10:53Mascarita Sagrada sitting right there in the center of the ring on that seal that is so significant to the Mexican culture.
11:09El Mariachi Loco had some moves.
11:17Oh!
11:19El Mariachi, of course, going to enjoy a strength advantage.
11:22And if you study physics, obviously, Mariachi's height is going to come into play.
11:26The higher he picks Mascarita up.
11:29El Mariachi Loco disrespecting Mascarita Sagrada.
11:32Trying to pit him with one foot.
11:34He's small, but you ain't gonna beat him like that.
11:37El Mariachi Loco ascends high the temple here in Lucha Underground.
11:51Lucha Libre legend Mascarita Sagrada on the mat.
11:55Oh!
11:57Beautiful Tilt-A-Whirl DDT points down to...
12:07Oh!
12:09No, he blocked him.
12:11Face plant.
12:13Give credit to Mascarita Sagrada for absorbing the punishment.
12:18The pass by here again into the Tilt-A-Whirl.
12:20No, going for the DDT again.
12:22Blocked this time. Looks like that's a choke, perhaps.
12:24Yes, it looks like Mascarita has some type of modified D'Arce choke there if you're an MMA fan.
12:29Rolls him onto a small package.
12:31That's it! No pun intended!
12:39It was the choke that weakened Mariachi.
12:41And then the, pardon the pun, the small package.
12:44And Mascarita Sagrada is victorious here.
12:50Chavo Guerrero Jr.
12:51Oh, come on!
12:55Oh!
12:57Chavo just won me over 100,000% with that.
13:00Kick him in the face.
13:01Man, I love that. I'm sorry.
13:07Boom!
13:08Hey, man, I'm sorry.
13:10I was really doubtful of Chavo.
13:12I don't know where his motors are.
13:14I know he's got a chip on his shoulder.
13:15Man, I told you I don't like him, but I was certainly in favor of him kicking that little guy in the head.
13:20Chavo Guerrero has done it yet again.
13:22Continues his rampage in Lucha Underground.
13:46Welcome back to Lucha Underground.
13:48Chavo Guerrero has left an unexplained path of destruction here.
13:53Last week, the victim, Blue Demon Jr.
13:55And just moments ago, the mini Mascarita Sagrada.
14:00I can't make any sense of it.
14:02Vampiro tried to get some answers earlier this week.
14:05Let's take a look.
14:06Hey, everybody, it's Vampiro here in Lucha Underground, Boyle Heights, ringside.
14:13And I would like to welcome to our show the great Chavo Guerrero Jr.
14:19How you doing, man?
14:20It's been a long time, brother.
14:21Thanks for having me.
14:22You've been everywhere. You've done everything.
14:24You won championships here and there.
14:25But it always seems to me like you've been riding on the coattails of the Guerrero name.
14:29You've never really done it yourself.
14:31Who is Chavo Guerrero today?
14:33And what are you going to do here in Lucha Underground, man?
14:35Look, my father was a legend. My uncle's a legend.
14:37My grandfather, Gordy Guerrero, I mean, practically invented Lucha Libre.
14:41I've been representing the family, La Familia Guerrero.
14:44And I've been doing it their way out of respect.
14:46Because now, for the first time, I'm leading La Familia Guerrero and I'm leading my way.
14:52Two legends, the Guerrero family and the dynasty of Blue Demon Jr.
14:56History was made.
14:58The first match televised in the world by two iconic figures for Lucha Underground and the El Rey Network.
15:05Brother, you had a chance to show the world that you were stepping out of the shadows and taking on the great Blue Demon Jr.
15:11Unfortunately, brother, in front of the world, you tapped out.
15:15Second match, you came down to help him.
15:17But what did you do? You turned to violence.
15:19You went behind his back. You took a chair.
15:21You beat him so bad and you put him in the hospital.
15:23What is up with that?
15:25The only reason that he's a legend is not because of what he did.
15:28Hell, no it wasn't. It's about what his daddy did.
15:30His daddy was the one that passed on his mask to Blue Demon Jr.
15:34You almost killed him.
15:35Have you not seen what the Guerrero family is actually about?
15:38What we actually do?
15:39We don't like you. We put you out.
15:41And that's what I did to Blue Demon.
15:43Blue Demon came in, living off of his dad's legacy.
15:46You've seen him in the ring, even in his prime.
15:48Even when he was the best that he ever was, he still sucked.
15:52You know, everybody at the El Rey Network, they all think Blue Demon is this pot of gold.
15:56They're cash cows.
15:57They thought he was a huge marketing piece when they brought him in.
16:00And they thought, oh, Chavo Guerrero, people know him.
16:02They'll watch. He'll get some viewers.
16:04You know what? I'm tired of that.
16:06I'm tired of anybody who actually thinks that they can just bring me in to be the opponent.
16:11They can kiss my ass.
16:12The reason I came to Lucha Underground was to make myself a star.
16:16Dario Cuerto, he says that he wants violence.
16:19Well, Dario, I'm your man.
16:22Everywhere you've been, you've been a champion.
16:25You've carried the weight of that cross of the Guerrero name on your back.
16:28You stepped out of the shadow.
16:30What are you talking about, dog?
16:31Look, truth. I have been a champion everywhere I've gone.
16:33But I haven't been a champion here.
16:35Not in Lucha Underground.
16:36And if I've got to put a legend in the hospital to do that, I will.
16:39What would you do if Blue Demon was sitting here right now?
16:42What would you say to him?
16:43Blue Demon, I don't hate you.
16:45You know what I really hate?
16:46That for one second, I thought you may have been better than me.
16:50But now, Blue Demon, you know who's better.
16:53Me. I'm better than you.
16:56Chavo Guerrero is here in Lucha Underground to stay and to dominate.
17:02Crazy.
17:03Brother, you got some issues.
17:05I'm Vampiro. You're watching Lucha Underground here on the El Rey Network.
17:09El Rey.
17:11LUCHA UNDERGROUND
17:37Vito.
17:38Conan.
17:39What's up, brother?
17:40What's up?
17:41Just here, man.
17:42Hey, man. Good to see you, brother.
17:44You too.
17:45How are you?
17:46I'm good, brother. You?
17:47Man, we go back a long time.
17:49That's right.
17:50And to me, you've always been like family.
17:54So I'm going to put you up on game.
17:57La Raza and Mexico, they found out about what you did to Blue Demon.
18:03Yeah, but I...
18:05And it's only a matter of time before they find out what you did to Mascarita.
18:11The streets, they're talking. Están hablando.
18:15So I'm going to give you some advice.
18:18If I were you, I'd dip, become extinct, like a comprehensive immigration bill, or like a ghost.
18:27They're coming, Vito.
18:35RUN
18:49You took something that doesn't belong to you.
18:52Just know that he never forgets.
18:57And one day, someday, you too will belong to me, Marta.
19:05The following lucha is set for one fall.
19:08In the ring, from Venice Beach, California, Ricky Mandel.
19:15And the winner is...
19:17Ricky Mandel.
19:19And the winner is...
19:21Ricky Mandel.
19:23And the winner is...
19:25Ricky Mandel.
19:27And the winner is...
19:29Ricky Mandel.
19:31From Venice Beach, California, Ricky Mandel.
19:36The last guy I know in a wrestling ring from Venice Beach, California, did pretty well.
19:40And his opponent.
19:44Accompanied by the beautiful Katrina.
19:47From beyond the grave, más allá de la tumba, Mil Muertes.
19:54Of course, Mil involved in the Blue Demon Jr.
19:57I guess it's called a tragedy at this point with Chavo Guerrero.
20:00Now, Mil and Katrina, they have a unique backstory as well.
20:03Let's take a deeper look into the mystery that is Mil Muertes.
20:17On September 19th, 1985, an 8.1 magnitude earthquake shocked Mexico City.
20:25Thousands of lives lost that day.
20:29Including Mil's entire family.
20:32Mil was buried alive in the rubble.
20:35A 7-year-old child alone in the darkness for days.
20:40Thinking death was coming.
20:42But he didn't feel fear.
20:45He felt comfort.
20:49Being at the brink of death is where he belonged.
20:53And when he finally emerged, he brought all that death with him.
20:58Because the coldness and death were where he found warmth.
21:04Where he found strength.
21:12Before the earthquake, his name was Pascual Mendoza.
21:16But after rising from the ruins, he became Mil Muertes.
21:24A thousand deaths are coming.
21:36Well, that certainly sheds a little light on a very dark soul.
21:40He sure is looking like he stepped out of the 50s or the 60s in that wrestling attire.
21:46We also know that Katrina seems to like to get a taste of some of Mil Muertes' opponent
21:53by dragging her tongue across their face.
21:56Yeah, I don't know about that, man. That's a little bit strange, but I can tell you something right now.
22:00Yeah, I know you do, but Mil Muertes is an extremely violent, aggressive person.
22:05Old school, doesn't care, comes in, prays, beats you up, and that's that.
22:10Well, we did see what Mil did to the legendary Blue Demon Jr.
22:14last week.
22:15Matt, not only did you destroy him, you dominated.
22:20This young man, Ricky Mandel, has a chance to make a name for himself here at Lucha Underground,
22:23but you can see the nerves on Ricky's face.
22:26Oh, man, look at Mil Muertes. He's here for business, brother.
22:28He's just built like a train.
22:30Perhaps a kiss for good luck from Katrina?
22:33I don't think he's going to need it.
22:35I don't think Mil believes in luck.
22:37I think he believes in causing pain and suffering.
22:40Yeah, Muertes looks like he's going to enjoy a power advantage.
22:43He's not even worried about giving his back.
22:45The psychological advantage is what Muertes enjoys the most.
22:48You can see Ricky Mandel, a lot of lateral movement shows that he's nervous,
22:51but I know Ricky Mandel, and I know that he can go.
22:54What did I tell you, brother?
22:56Just a beating. No wrestling here.
22:59Sorry to say it.
23:07Muertes' quickness of Ricky Mandel, that seems to be the story here in the early going.
23:12Yeah, well.
23:15I don't know if clotheslines and power moves are going to be in the arsenal here.
23:19Bang! Hold that!
23:21Oh, man, brother.
23:24I could watch Katrina clap all day.
23:27Well, that's just called a beating.
23:29Oh, man.
23:32Oh!
23:39Thank God.
23:41Punch, chop, kick.
23:43Man, I'm a big fan of Mil Muertes.
23:48And you can feel the...
23:51It's almost like a chill.
23:53There's something going on in the temple here as the live crowd watches Mil Muertes,
23:58Katrina getting involved.
24:00Yeah, but Mil Muertes, you know what, brother?
24:02He's not even trying to win this match.
24:04I don't know if you take a note, but he just wants to stomp this kid.
24:10Oh.
24:13Oh, please keep slapping the mat as much as you want.
24:17Ricky Mandel yet to muster up any offense, save for the early going here.
24:22I don't know.
24:23Mandel's mouth wide open, usually indicative of a tired fighter.
24:26Oh, gosh.
24:28I felt that myself.
24:31Here we go. Mandel's opportunity now.
24:34Dropkick sends Muertes off of his feet.
24:36Now if Mandel can muster up some energy and realize where he is.
24:39Remember, it only takes three seconds to be victorious.
24:42Come on, Ricky.
24:44Oh, dude. Bad move.
24:46Oh, a little bit of comeback here.
24:50I'm not feeling that at all. Mil Muertes is going to fire up.
24:53Oh!
24:55Thank God.
24:57Mandel, you want to talk about rocking your world.
24:59Ricky looks like he's seeing his entire life flash before him.
25:03That's because it's about to come to an end.
25:08Flatliner aptly named.
25:10Marty Elias down to Mil Muertes is your winner.
25:15Your winner is Mil Muertes.
25:20Impressive victory by the fan of a thousand deaths, Mil Muertes.
25:28Oh, God. Does that turn anyone else on? Am I weird?
25:50Yeah, man. You got to crack that fool with his head.
25:53Yeah.
25:54Harder with the chair next time.
25:58Hey, look at this dude.
26:04I'm here to see Dario Cueto.
26:06Nah, Holmes. Senor Cueto is busy.
26:08Oh, yeah? Hey, you got the password, Holmes?
26:11Password?
26:13Yeah, I got your password.
26:23Boys!
26:28Hold on, Johnny. Hold on.
26:30Calmate. Tranquilo.
26:32Relax. Don't worry. Past is the past.
26:35I'm here to work with you.
26:37Now, I hear you want violence.
26:40Give me a match with Big Rick next week, and I'll give you violence.
26:45You want him?
26:47Yeah.
26:49You want him?
26:51Yeah.
26:53You want him?
26:56You want him?
26:58You got him.
27:00In the main event.
27:02Next week.
27:04Gracias.
27:08Oh, and by the way.
27:12When I'm done with Big Rick, you're next.
27:25I'm sorry.
27:51I told you I don't fight for free.
27:53It's gonna cost you.
27:59If that is not enough, I'll write you a check.
28:01I don't care how much it costs.
28:03Next week, Johnny Mundo goes to the hospital.
28:08What?
28:21Probably the freshest thing about the Lucha Underground is the level of competition.
28:24The doors are open for everybody.
28:27Yes, including this gentleman who has set the world ablaze.
28:31Let's take an intimate look at Prince Puma.
28:38LUCHA UNDERGROUND
28:57His name is Prince Puma.
29:01He has fought all his life.
29:05Actually, all his life.
29:12Because this mask has been passed down over centuries.
29:16Finding warriors to bring it on.
29:20Every man has a destiny.
29:22A higher calling.
29:24This is his.
29:28In that ring, a battle that started almost a millennia ago will be fought.
29:34And will be fought again.
29:44He does this for his ancestors who died fighting for his tribe.
29:51And for all the assholes who said he would never make anything of his life.
29:57He silences them all.
30:05LUCHA UNDERGROUND
30:19The following Lucha is set for one fall.
30:22And is the main event.
30:28And is a three-way match.
30:32Introducing first, from Entremundo, Drago.
30:40Ladies and gentlemen, this is our main event on Lucha Underground.
30:43Where we will premiere for you three of the most athletically gifted luchadores in the world.
30:50Some of them debuting for the first time on U.S. soil.
30:53Feast your eyes on Drago.
30:55Brother, if you go to Mexico City and you check out the Pyramid of the Sun.
30:58When the sun sets at a certain hour in the day, a serpent slowly comes down the stairs.
31:05But Drago, look at that tongue, man.
31:07Damn fresh.
31:09Gene Simmons, maybe?
31:11And from Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico.
31:15Pentagon Jr.
31:19Matt, I want to quickly point out that in Mexico City and Lucha Libre.
31:22You always have the ying and the yang.
31:24There's octagon and then there's pentagon.
31:26They have the good and the bad.
31:28And this is something that's very classic for Lucha Libre.
31:30They have the dark side of a character, of a traditional Lucha Libre luchador.
31:38And finally, from Mexico City, Mexico.
31:44Phoenix.
31:47Apparently, Matt, this is the future of Lucha Libre in the United States and the world.
31:54As well, of course, these are clearances for all three luchadors,
31:57which means we will be seeing them more and more on Lucha Underground.
32:01And Vampiro, triple threat rules.
32:04This is different than a traditional match.
32:06All three luchadors can be at the ring at the same time.
32:09One pinfall will win this match.
32:11Disqualifications and countouts are referee Rick Knox's discretion.
32:18It's big time.
32:21It's main event time. We'll be right back.
32:45This is your main event on Lucha Underground.
32:48Vampiro, triple threat rules.
32:51This is different than a traditional match.
32:53All three luchadors can be at the ring at the same time.
32:56One pinfall will win this match.
32:58Disqualifications and countouts are referee Rick Knox's discretion.
33:02No friends, no enemies.
33:03Just three guys that want to make an impression.
33:05And I'm telling you right now, with that tongue, Drago made an impression on me.
33:09Now, some people call this match a three-way dance,
33:13but the term triple threat just seems to be far more dangerous.
33:17Far more dangerous.
33:20Matt, you got spun around by that kick.
33:23Here we go, Pentagon.
33:26It's every man for himself, evidently.
33:30All three of these luchadors will enjoy a fast-paced, high-flying style.
33:35Right now, it seems that Pentagon is...
33:37Fire it up.
33:39Bang!
33:41Keep your eye on Drago.
33:44Of course, the luchadors will not work together.
33:46Wow!
33:47Man.
33:48Watch, watch, watch what's coming, Matt.
33:50Oh!
33:53The fans don't even know what to make of this.
33:55And now it's time, evidently, for the Phoenix to rise from the ashes
33:59here in the Temple of Lucha Underground.
34:07Nice!
34:10That was called an 875 corkscrew twist from the top.
34:14Straight to the floor, Matt.
34:15I don't know if you've ever seen that before.
34:17I've seen it now.
34:22Drago looks kind of fired up.
34:23I don't know if he's hurt or if he's getting ready to rock and roll.
34:25Well, we'll try to keep track of the injuries and the collateral damage
34:28that's done to each luchador as the match goes on
34:31to give you a better gauge on who may be victorious.
34:34Right now, Phoenix in the ring with Drago.
34:38Wow, kick to the chin.
34:41Wow, leg sweep.
34:43Fairly huge defensive maneuver in the martial art of Hakido
34:47straight from Korea.
34:49Notice how Phoenix cuts the ring off.
34:51Wow.
34:52Lends itself to Phoenix's speed.
34:54Drago seems to be slightly shorter, but perhaps a little more quick.
34:57Or quicker, pardon me.
34:59Wow!
35:01What would you call that, Matt?
35:03Total World DDT.
35:04You're quick tonight, brother.
35:06Pentagon Jr. and Drago in now.
35:09Nice little tanahashi there.
35:13Pentagon signals that he has no fear.
35:15Cero miedo.
35:21Matt, can you please tell me how fresh it is
35:23that lucha libre comes from Mexico,
35:25but almost everybody has an oriental theme?
35:28Well, I think that fighting and wrestling is universal.
35:31It's worldwide.
35:32Of course, the popularity of MMA and pro wrestling,
35:34puro wrestling, lucha libre, world of sport,
35:36whatever you're into, enjoy lucha underground.
35:42Wow.
35:44That's right.
35:45Call for it.
35:46You deserve it, brother.
35:47The crowd is on its feet.
35:50You can get a shot of Phoenix's chest.
35:52There is a dream catcher tattooed above his heart.
35:54I'm sure there's significance there.
36:00Here comes Phoenix with a head of steam.
36:04Wow.
36:07Devastating.
36:08A guy that size can be moving that quick, brother.
36:11And of course, remember that when the luchadores
36:13are outside the ring, they're still not safe
36:15because of the aerial abilities of these world-class athletes.
36:21Three acai kicks to the back, to the midsection.
36:24Wow.
36:25Nice.
36:26Jesus.
36:27If I could physically do that, I would steal that move.
36:35Get up!
36:37Modified Michinoku driver knocks down just a two count.
36:40The only thing that wasn't modified that, brother,
36:42was his spine going through his upper cranium.
36:46Listen to the people, the faithful in the temple.
36:54I haven't seen you that freaked out in a long time, brother.
36:57You're chipping.
36:58All three luchadores down.
36:59Referee Rick Knox starts the count.
37:01If no luchador reaches their feet before ten,
37:03the match is ruled a no contest.
37:05I'd hate to see that happen.
37:06Brother, and the fans are chanting lucha
37:09only here on the El Rey Network and La Lucha Underground
37:12in the temple of Lucha Libre.
37:14That's right.
37:15There you go.
37:16Go to elreynetwork.com, type in your zip code.
37:18You'll find the channel on your cable provider.
37:20You don't want to be left out
37:22when everyone's talking about Lucha Underground.
37:24You'll only see this kind of wrestling action right here.
37:29Andres onto the apron.
37:30Keep your eye on Drago.
37:32A little shades of Dr. Wagner there by Phoenix.
37:35Oh, man.
37:36Oh, this doesn't bode well for Drago.
37:38Drago, that was like, please don't.
37:41Oh, man, something not good.
37:44Oh.
37:45Oh, the anticipation builds.
37:50Man.
37:51And Drago's still in the wrong part of town.
37:54Phoenix seems to be the fan favorite here.
37:58I think that everybody here pretty much gained fan favoritism.
38:02Oh, wow, beautifully done.
38:04Here we go.
38:05Is it going to happen?
38:06Roll through, roll back.
38:07Oh, that backstabber.
38:09Beautiful sequence.
38:10Oh, I felt that myself.
38:12And this is the action you get
38:13when three luchadors are in the ring at the same time.
38:16The top talent in the world right here in front of us, Matt.
38:19And Phoenix seems to be ascending the Walk of Faith.
38:25Of course, nothing is off limits here in the temple.
38:28Pentagon and Drago both willing the crowd to get behind them.
38:45Drago off the ropes.
38:48Big chop by Pentagon.
38:55Oh.
39:01Another monster chop from Pentagon.
39:17Drago using his speed as well as his hips.
39:20It seems that Drago seems to enjoy an athletic advantage over Pentagon.
39:24Whoa, look at that.
39:27That dragon can fly.
39:30Oh, man.
39:31Hang on a second.
39:32Hang on a second.
39:33Phoenix punched right atop the temple.
39:35Pause.
39:37Matt, that's got to be 30 feet up there.
39:41Ladies and gentlemen, this is Lucha Underground.
39:47With no regard for his body,
39:49no regard for his back, for his knees.
39:51Oh, my God.
39:55A beautiful sacrifice by the Phoenix.
39:58Off the hook.
40:01Phoenix can barely rise to his feet.
40:04Did Phoenix sacrifice just a little too much to try to win this match?
40:08Yeah.
40:13The crowd is on their feet showing their appreciation for these three men.
40:19This is awesome.
40:22And Pentagon joins his opponents now.
40:24One of these three luchadors will walk out of this match with a huge victory tonight.
40:28The question, who's it going to be?
40:32Pentagon now with Dragon.
40:34Muscle buster time perhaps.
40:36Wow.
40:37Package pile driver.
40:38Could this be it?
40:39No.
40:41Oh, man.
40:43Oh.
40:50Oh, nice kick check there.
40:51Just kicking the ankle.
40:54Wow.
40:55What the hell is that?
40:56First round.
40:57Referee knocks down 2-3.
41:00And your winner is...
41:05Phoenix.
41:06Phoenix stealed it.
41:09Ladies and gentlemen, get to know Phoenix as well as Drago and Pentagon Jr.
41:15What a main event.
41:16A triple threat match here on Lucha Underground.
41:19Phoenix victorious with what I can only call a reverse Huna Contreras pile driver brain buster?
41:25I think I'm going to guess it's a question mark, Matt.
41:28Okay.
41:29After jumping off 453 feet in the air.
41:36Well, ladies and gentlemen, we had a huge triple threat match as our main event.
41:40We saw Mil Muertes continue his path of rage.
41:43And we heard from Chavo Guerrero Jr.
41:46Lucha Underground is certainly getting interesting.
41:50Brother, you can see this is our main event and the crowd giving a standing ovation.
41:56Ladies and gentlemen, we thank you for joining us once again.
41:59We'll see you next week right here on the El Rey Network.
42:03This is Lucha Underground.
42:14LUCHA UNDERGROUND
42:22Johnny Mundo thinks he can threaten me, Dario Cueto, and get away with it.
42:35I will not be intimidated by anyone.
42:38Not even you.
