This week's Lucha was pretty good, but last week's was insane. Lots of jumping off high things.
This week was Penta being Penta, to his own detriment. Going alone against 2 main eventers was a dumb choice, but he's not exactly bringing his brother back from the dead, I guess. Indiana Mundo was pretty classic. Too bad about the reptile. He'll be missed after impressing this season. |

Yeah was shocked that was how that ended but reptiles are know to grow back limbs as well. Not sure they can grow back a head though.

Season has been pretty good so far and really enjoy the creative ways being done to deal with people no longer being in the company.
Could have easily gone the lazy route by just ignoring them or have them simply lose a match as their exit but instead are using the departures in different ways to play into the on-going storylines. |

I'm finally all caught up, and I'm in love again. Definitely gonna miss Vibora as soon as I started to like him. Mundo would be weird with the Reptile Tribe, though...who I think are much better this season. I like how Kobra Moon extends the letter "sssssss" when she speaks, and Daga fits well, even though he looks nothing like a reptile.

Loved this episode. Loved the classic WWF reference at the end.
Mariposa's breasteses are very nice. |

Ya, Mariposa was hot in that episode. Never noticed that before.
Also, Ricky Mundo is delightfully creepy. |

Mariposa has a really fucking great match later in the season. I hope they don't kill it with editing

Really great episode this week. Great matches, epic vignettes, setting up matches for next week that should (and do) burn the house down. Also, I will be making my debut in the crowd next week.

Best episode this season. Good to see a real cage match with none of the escape to win bullshit. Main event was just crazy.

Damn, that main event was insane. Ricky Mundo is insane. I liked whatever that was happening with Catrina and Melissa Santos. Famous B is hilarious to me, for some reason.
Lucha Underground is the best. |

That cutscene at the beginning was the main event of the whole episode. Probably the best one they've EVER done.
I don't think that I put together at the tapings who Joey Wrestling was. I just figured he was some jobber. Big Bad Steve Pentagon has a hell of a rogue's gallery this year. Matanza, Cage, the latest challengers... and there's way more to come. I marked out so fucking hard at the end of this one. Also, this episode is the first one where RoXer and I are in the crowd the whole time (and we ended up being there for the rest of the season), so my thoughts and recaps will probably start getting longer every week. |

Jack Swagger seems really bad in Lucha Underground. Def seems a lot slower than he was when I last saw him. Maybe it's just in comparison to the speed of everyone else, but he seems like a lumbering idiot.
Everything else is pretty much the best |

Yeah, he's probably the only guy where I felt he doesn't really fit on the show. Something about his booking and matches comes more off as WWE style than LU or lucha style.
Even in terms of big or bulky guys, Brian Cage and Vibora are more entertaining to watch in LU than Swaggie. |

Yeah def, they're trying to sell him as kinda a "monster" but all the other monsters are 10x better than he is e.g Cage, Mil Muertes, Matanza
Feel like half the smaller guys are more intimidating due to style too. He just seems like a tall, once in shape but lost a lot of muscle mass but still got some size, kinda guy. Which I guess is exactly what he is |

Fell away from LU at the end of Season 2, just watched Ultima Lucha Tres Part IV to set me up for S4.
Love Johnny Mundo’s character/presentation. It’s very similar to something I wanted to do as part of the last attempt at Armchair Warfare. Gonna start S4 soon. |

I was searching something about something and ended up coming across a spoiler for Ultima Lucha on the Wikipedia page. Steer clear of there to avoid my fate.

That doesn't really apply to me, but I'm sure the NDA I signed does until the show actually airs.

My problem is I usually watch as I'm going to bed and I'm usually drunk and pass out before it ends. I'm all caught up, didn't see that coming tough.

feel like this week's show was great. Aerostar makes me laugh a lot in his out of ring segments.
Feel like some of the matches really benefit from being edited (like the Trios and Killshot/Havoc both did). Cut the matches down to just the really good parts and speeds everything up. Killshot's SPOILER: show Longer thoughts on Marty in spoilers. SPOILER: show |
