Lucha Underground: Season 3
Season 3 starts this week. Shit will go down. Post about it here. "My belly's just a little big, my heinie's just a little big, but bruddah, I'm bad and they know I'm bad." - Dusty Rhodes

So far, so good. Marty the Moth is becoming one of my favorites. I also really like the Underground Worldwide stable.

if you need a way to catch up/ see what the hype is about with Lucha Underground, go90 (Verizon's streaming video app) just added the 1st half of season 2. It's free to anyone, just search the App/Play Store, and you can Cast via Chromecast/Roku/Fire Stick

Pretty good start to the season. Nothing overly spectacular, but solid shit all around. I did notice that Pentagon looks like a monster in comparison to Rey Rey.

I've been meaning to check it out. I had this peak level of interest after Ultima Lucha and the start of Season 2. I'm finding that interest has waned considerably. I'm not sure if it was the news of all the injuries, talent leaving or Lucha Underground generally being douches about talent leaving. How did the end of the season go?

End of season was good. Rey Mysetrio came in and tore it up. New season is great too. Never liked Cage or Texano for a long time, then my feelings for both guys grew and I felt that it would be awesome at Ultima Lucha Dos and now they're doing the Ultimate Opportunity, which is so great.

I love how you can see that Kanyon is Cage's trainer just by watching him. Totally different wrestler, but just that innovative style.
Really shocked WWE haven't grabbed him yet. |

I'm surprised they haven't gone for her too. She's much better than anyone in WWE.

They've tried at least once or twice to get her but either LU pays her more or she'd be in the same situation like Prince Puma where whoever signs her, can't have her on tv till the end of Season 3 at the earliest.

I was reading up on that some time ago, and it appears that Cage did spend some time in WWE developmental somewhere or other. Not sure how he didn't get more of a shot.

I read he was in FCW about the time that EC3 and a bunch of others were (Wyatt, Dallas, Justin Gabriel/PJ Black)

Didn't know he was trained by Kanyon, but he definitely did drop a "WHO BETTER THAN CAGE?" on the most recent episode. Makes sense now.

Even though it's in the early establishing stories phase for the season, I think it's top quality right out of the gate. Like that Ivelyse and Katrina already have a match set for the season finale, there's tension in the Worldwide Underground and we haven't even got to Paul London yet. There's not a person on the roster who sticks out as making me want to fast forward, which is astounding. Mil was the only guy I didn't like for the longest time as he's just a slow lumbering hoss, but once he got going with the brawls in grave consequences and him and Matanza going through the roof, I loved him. Marty the Moth is great too after that WMD match. From top to bottom, the best hour of wrestling on TV still. Great roster, great matches and the storyline and production are top notch. Still laughed at Honkey being a random cop in the jail. |

He was Kris Logan in FCW. I don't know why he was released. He called them "idiots" for letting him go, but he might just be working. He says he's open to going back. I didn't see much of his work, but they might have just wanted him to go and get some more seasoning. That seems weird, since they were producing a clone factory at that point in time, and even now, they say they want people trained properly, but the guys that carry NXT all have experience in many different styles.
If I were him, I'd send feelers to the WWE when my contract with LU/AAA is up. He reminds me of a good Ryback. |

I Marty was brilliant just brilliant. I also love how in the LU male female in ring encounters are treated so casually its easy to get used to and they do a good job of making The likes of Sexy Star look more than capable of delivering beat downs
Could gush about this show forever Then again this is the company that made me like Ezekiel Jackson so not too surprised as what they manage to pull off anymore just enjoying it |

Sexy Star seems like a real trooper from what I've seen. I was a bit annoyed the WWE passed her up a few years ago.

What are some good Matanza matches I should check out? I've seen a few Jeff Cobb matches in PWG and he's quickly become one of my new favorites.

So Jim Cornette hates LU with a passion he specifically points out that Sexy Star beating male wrestlers is stupid and ridiculous.
we can't be friends anymore |

That's because Sexy Star is the most overrated luchador on the show.

It's been 13 weeks since we've seen King Cuerno. I am afraid he's gone forever.

Think he left the company during last season's tapings. More due to LU's co-owner Mexican promotion AAA recent money problems and horrible management than anything LU related itself.

Either he must have reconsidered recently or maybe it was just from LU he left. Don't think he was involved in any of the tapings for this season.
LU has a similar problem with at least 2 other stars after this season with one already confirmed gone due to retirement. |

I read that Cuerno was invited to the CWC and AAA wouldn't let him go. I think I would have died.
