SportTranscript
00:00You are one of the main reasons why I came to Lucha Underground.
00:04Always so close to the brass ring,
00:07but it always remains out of your grasp.
00:09Hey, I'm not just some guy you can slap around.
00:14I wonder why you're coming to a three-way match tonight.
00:16Cage and Cuerno feels you cost them the chance to be champion.
00:19So you're gonna let them jump me two-on-one?
00:21You have a claim for the title, too.
00:23Let's make your three-way a lucha to determine the number one contender.
00:27Cage and Cuerno working together.
00:29What kind of positions did I leave Conan in?
00:31Clothes over, two, three!
00:33Hernandez is the number one contender!
00:37I think I deserve to face Prince Puma for the Lucha Underground Championship.
00:40Well, Hernandez earned a match against Puma.
00:43Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:44But he never beat either one of us.
00:46You know, you guys are right.
00:48It will be you, Alberto, versus Johnny Mundo.
00:53The winner gets Hernandez in a number one contender's match.
00:57I look forward to finding out which one of you is the best.
01:04We talked about how two of the very best counter wrestlers in the world would need to pull out all the stops.
01:09He got him!
01:10Alberto El Patron is one step away from becoming number one contender.
01:28It cost me half of Dad's fortune, but I found it.
01:33The seven medallions of each of the ancient Aztec tribes.
01:38Once united, they will make one warrior as powerful as the gods themselves.
01:47Perhaps even more powerful than you.
01:51Papa would be proud.
01:54Papa would be proud.
01:57I plan to honor history by recreating the battles fought for these medallions, starting tonight.
02:06You know, maybe I will even bring a TV up here so you can enjoy the mayhem, too.
02:24El Patron de los Medallions
02:27El Patron de los Medallions
02:31De acá te mando saludos, te guardo todo mi son
02:36Te mando mi cariñito, te extraño mucho mi amor
02:41De acá te mando saludos, te guardo todo mi son
02:46Te mando mi cariñito, te extraño mucho mi amor
02:52It is bumping and jumping off the hook, man. I'm just out of my mind with the excitement that's going on here in the temple.
02:59This is Lucha Underground, and I gotta say thank you to Sergio Mendoza y la Orquestra for rocking the house.
03:06I need to give love props to my boy, Roberto Trejillo, Suicidal Tendencies Infectious Crew Metallica, here schooling it.
03:13That's right. Tonight is the night to be here. We have a huge main event.
03:17Alberto El Patron seeks to add another prestigious title to his already impressive resume.
03:23We're talking about the Lucha Underground Championship.
03:26In order for Alberto to have that match, he must defeat Hernandez first.
03:29It's a number one contender's match. It's our main event tonight, but that's not all.
03:33Dario Cueto has promised some sort of big announcement tonight, but that's not all.
03:39Evidently, somebody has answered the call of the wild, knocked on the door of Lucha Underground,
03:44and tonight we are going to see the debut of a superstar here in Lucha Underground.
03:48A brand new luchador. Let's kick things off. The lovely Melissa Santos, take us away.
03:57The following Lucha is scheduled for one fall.
04:01Introducing first, from the cosmos, Aerostar.
04:08Well, this will be the first time that we see Aerostar in the temple,
04:13since Aerostar lost the unique opportunity to Drago in the Best of Five Series.
04:17In hindsight, I guess it's a blessing, because unlike Drago, Aerostar still has a contract here in Lucha Underground.
04:25Whereas Drago has been banished forever for failing to win the Lucha Underground title.
04:30A lot of things going on.
04:32A lot of things going on, but hey man, you as well as anybody in the world should know
04:36that a dragon being a mystical creature may be on the other side of that.
04:42We're going to find him again in those mystic clouds of Never Never Land.
04:46The exciting celestial luchador, Aerostar, ready for action.
04:50And his opponent, from Parkland, Washington, Jack Evans.
04:58Oh yeah.
05:01Yeah.
05:18There you get a good look for the first time ever in the temple at Jack Evans,
05:22a 15-year veteran of Lucha, quite the show-off, and he has an extensive resume, man.
05:27Dude, don't say that about Jack. Jack has toured. He's a road dog, man.
05:30He once wrestled 385 days in one year. How about that one in Japan?
05:35I've been with him in Italy. I've seen him in school in Mexico.
05:38This guy is the originator. He is the man. He's not cocky, brother.
05:45Of course, Jack Evans honed his career in the heart dungeon, of course, with the Mat Rats promotion in Canada.
05:51Oh!
05:52Jack Evans is excelling in AAA Mexico. Now he's got to prove himself here at Lucha Underground.
05:57Brother, but he just walked in here and started schooling, and he almost took over.
06:00He hasn't even locked up yet, and he's just telling everybody,
06:03Hey, man, you guys are lucky to see me. How dope is that? Jack's fresh.
06:07Underneath the cocky exterior is a very, very talented luchador,
06:11influenced by the likes of Hayabusa and the great Sasuke.
06:14Jack Evans brings a unique style here to Lucha Underground.
06:19Brother, he's being disrespectful. He said he invented Lucha Libre.
06:22That's a big, big statement, dog.
06:24But I dig it, man. I agree almost.
06:29Jack Evans, of course, debuted in AAA with La Legion Extranjera.
06:34Did I say that right? The Foreign Legion?
06:35I love you.
06:36And Jack has gone on to wow fans all around the world,
06:41but Herostar puts it in the back door.
06:44Um, okay. Can you explain that just a little bit better, please?
06:48I don't know where you're going.
06:53Herostar better not get too geeked on the applause, man.
06:56Jack will school his class quick.
07:01Herostar just a little too quick for Jack Evans.
07:05We've seen this from Herostar before.
07:06The distance that Herostar makes up with this unique offense is very, very impressive.
07:12Nicely done.
07:17Herostar now chest-to-chest.
07:21Wow.
07:22You know what I dig, Matt? I say it all the time.
07:24The fans are just jumping out of the seats.
07:28We bring everybody to Lucha Underground, man.
07:30This is just where people want to be.
07:37Great agility there.
07:38Jack Evans, of course, enjoys tag team success in AAA Mexico.
07:42Two-time AAA Tag Team Champion.
07:44Once with Extreme Tiger, once with Angelico.
07:47But now Jack on his own here.
07:49Great adjustment there.
07:51Wow, brother.
07:52Kids, don't try this at home.
07:54It is rock and roll here in the Lucha Underground, but you never know.
07:58Don't try. These are trained professionals.
08:01And they recoup. They get hurt. They're human beings.
08:03But hey, man, it is what it is.
08:05Of course, all of these luchadors carry with them traits from their trainers.
08:09Herostar, of course, trained by Grand Apache and Abismo Negro.
08:12What kind of style does that lend?
08:18Huge experience.
08:19Those guys came out of the old school in Mexico and Japan,
08:22had their big interchange of talent in the 70s and the early 80s.
08:26So they're bringing a lot of heavy hitting to the game, bro.
08:29Not like me. I was trained by Homer Simpson.
08:35Oh, man.
08:38Of course, Herostar showing a little favor to his left knee.
08:41We'll keep an eye on that as the match rolls on.
08:44The athleticism of Jack Evans well on display.
08:46Wow, judo.
08:51Did you see what Jack kicked him in the neck?
08:54You notice he didn't go over the back when there's a lot of muscles that can block that.
08:57He knows what he's doing, brother.
09:00Lucha Libre!
09:04And Van, pardon the expression,
09:05what does it mean when a gringo says,
09:07I am Lucha Libre?
09:08I mean, how dishonorable is that?
09:10That's extremely gutsy, man.
09:12Not even I would say that.
09:13Conan would, but I wouldn't.
09:17Take nothing away from Jack Evans.
09:19How about that?
09:20Look at that, that heart dungeon training coming into play.
09:25If you come from the heart dungeon, you're a tortured soul.
09:28Jack is making his debut here, and he's just, like, angry now.
09:34Modified step over crossface.
09:35Painful submission hold.
09:36Herostar has only one choice,
09:38but to grab the ropes to force the referee to break the hold.
09:41You've seen Chono do that in New Japan many times.
09:43He's just tapped people out.
09:45I mean, Jack Evans is putting it in tight.
09:55Jack looks like he's been called this more than once in his career.
09:57I guess after 15 years in Mexico, what can I tell you?
10:00Hard knee strikes from Jack Evans now create space.
10:03Beautifully done there.
10:05Whoa.
10:07And you see how cocky he is.
10:08Instead of Jack going for a cover...
10:14Wow!
10:15Owned to Blitzkrieg.
10:16Is it enough?
10:18No.
10:19Ooh.
10:26Wow, Jack is awesome, man.
10:29He's so fresh.
10:31You know what he said?
10:32He got one job, brother.
10:33Do it right.
10:38Herostar now reverses the whip.
10:40Jack Evans into the corner.
10:41Herostar on the move.
10:42Evans gets the boot up.
10:43Sends Herostar back to the middle.
10:44Jack with his great athleticism,
10:46but Herostar still very quick.
10:47Go behind.
10:49Wow, Jack is awesome.
10:57I am so digging the cockiness.
11:00I am so feeling his energy.
11:02Yeah, but what about wasting time?
11:03What about giving Herostar precious time to recover?
11:06Well, look at you.
11:08You got a good point there.
11:12Herostar on the move.
11:14Jack misses the kick.
11:15Herostar uses the ropes for momentum here.
11:18Hip toss.
11:19Whoa!
11:20Jack Evans whacked his head against the boards, man.
11:28Herostar lands on his feet.
11:31Ooh.
11:32Jack Evans getting familiar with his environment.
11:43Wow.
11:48Matt, would you say that Jack Evans is adapting
11:50to the Lucha Underground pretty quick?
11:53Remains to be seen.
11:54Oh, this is some pretty...
11:55It's been a hell of a debut so far.
11:57Uh-oh.
11:58And now, Jack Evans from the Heavens.
12:01Oh!
12:02Oh, my God.
12:06Oh, my God.
12:12With no concern for his own well-being.
12:16Good God.
12:19Ooh!
12:27This is awesome!
12:30This is awesome!
12:31There you go, man.
12:32We've said it a million times, brother.
12:34The fans can't wait to see it.
12:36This is our opening contest here on Lucha Underground.
12:38We thank you so very much for inviting us
12:40into your homes each and every week.
12:48Crazy, man.
12:49Jack has recovered.
12:50He's bouncing.
12:51He's taking control.
12:52But he's got to go for the win sometime soon,
12:54and I'm showboating.
12:55You know, a lot of this talking and stuff,
12:57but while that goes on,
12:58Jack is thinking of his next move,
12:59so it's just part of Jack's strategy here.
13:01Let's see what Evans has in mind.
13:03Whoa!
13:04Oh, my God.
13:05I don't think Jack would want to do a lip stand.
13:08The cockiness may have gotten the better of Jack Evans.
13:10Let's see if Herostar can take advantage.
13:13He better.
13:14You know, for a guy like Jack Evans,
13:15a brand-new luchador,
13:16and a guy like Herostar
13:17who has a setback,
13:18you know, these matches are so important
13:20because every win just pushes you up,
13:22up in the rankings,
13:23and every loss pushes you down
13:24further away from the championship.
13:26No doubt about it.
13:27I agree with you totally.
13:28And Jack, although he's made an impressive debut,
13:31although he's provoked the fans,
13:33he's got to come up with a win, man.
13:35Yeah, Herostar definitely is compromised here,
13:38and Jack Evans took advantage.
13:40Herostar having a terrible time
13:41trying to climb the ropes there.
13:44Well, getting kicked, injured knee,
13:46getting kicked in the head by Jack Evans
13:47didn't help either.
13:50Wow.
13:51El mejor luchador!
13:54El mejor luchador.
13:55The best luchador?
13:57Oh.
13:58Well.
14:00Uh-oh.
14:01Be careful, brother.
14:02That's a hell of a drop.
14:06No way.
14:07No way.
14:08No way.
14:09Oh, my God.
14:10No, no, no!
14:12Oh!
14:14Oh, my slipping piledriver from the top rope.
14:17Herostar crawling over to Jack Evans.
14:20If Herostar can roll Jack over.
14:22Here he is.
14:23Two.
14:24What about that?
14:26Here's your winner,
14:28Herostar!
14:32The fact that it took a move of such impact
14:34to defeat Jack Evans in Jack's debut
14:37is a testament enough.
14:38But let's focus on the fact that Herostar
14:41is now on the trajectory in the right way,
14:44moving up the rankings here in Lucha Underground,
14:46where Jack Evans goes remains to be seen.
14:52Well, we've talked about it,
14:53the impressive debut from Jack Evans,
14:54but not enough to take down the man from the cosmos.
14:57Let's shift gears now.
14:58Later on tonight,
14:59will Alberto El Patron be able to take down Hernandez
15:03and move one step closer to Alberto's destiny
15:06of becoming Lucha Underground champion?
15:08We'll find out, because our main event
15:10is still to come tonight.
15:32Damn, cuz, where you get all that green at?
15:35Ain't that's a whole lot of big faces.
15:37My business is my business.
15:39Come on, man, don't be like that.
15:42We family.
15:45Being family didn't help us to win those Trios titles, did it?
15:51I know you got this business to show off your fancy moves,
15:54maybe make some fans.
15:56I want you to smarten up.
15:57This business is about one thing,
15:59making money while you can.
16:03For the right amount of money,
16:06I'll give it to you.
16:15I even whooped somebody in my own family's ass.
16:34Welcome back to Lucha Underground.
16:35As you can see, Luchadores have been coming to the ring.
16:37We are told that Dario Cuero has demanded
16:39seven different Luchadores be here.
16:41We're waiting on two more.
16:43Sexy Star making her way to the ring
16:46here in Lucha Underground.
16:48This is kind of crazy.
16:49She's stepping into the Shark Tank here tonight, man.
16:54Every time Sexy's here,
16:56it's always a moment to remember,
16:57and of course, Sexy has a long, intense,
17:00aggressive history with Pentagon.
17:06Here comes the seventh Luchador, the Mack,
17:09the man we met in the Trios Tournament,
17:12now stands here on his own.
17:14Of course, Mack teamed with Killshot and Big Rick.
17:19But it looks like it's every man for himself.
17:21I mean, everywhere you look in the ring,
17:23each Luchador has a great feather in their cap.
17:26Phoenix overcame,
17:27Nil Muertes has had classic matches.
17:29We've touched on Sexy Star.
17:30Of course, Mack we've touched on.
17:32Killshot, impressive in the Trios,
17:34and now singles match.
17:35He has very odd pacing to him.
17:37Cage, of course, we know about his power.
17:39Cuerno, the skilled hunter,
17:40perhaps the most intelligent, calculating Luchador.
17:43And Pentagon, who many people feel
17:45is the most dangerous man here in Lucha Underground.
17:50And there is the boss.
17:56Tonight, you seven are gonna be competing
18:00for a very unique but very valuable prize.
18:06One of the seven Aztec medallions
18:09that represents the ancient tribes.
18:13And why should you want to get this?
18:16Because earning one of these medallions
18:19will give you the chance for immortality.
18:24All I will say is the winner of this match
18:27will get the first medallion.
18:29So now, get me a referee and let's start the match!
18:33Seven Luchadors about to go to battle
18:36over a mysterious medallion that Dario Cuerno has said
18:39has immortal value.
18:41Our huge seven-way Lucha is next
18:45here on Lucha Underground.
18:48Welcome back to Lucha Underground.
18:50Seven Luchadors about to compete
18:52for one of Dario Cuerno's Aztec medallions.
18:55Here we go!
18:58One fall to a finish here.
19:05Dario touched on this Aztec medallion vamp.
19:08Do you know anything about it?
19:10No, I don't.
19:11I don't know anything about it.
19:13Dario touched on this Aztec medallion vamp.
19:16Do you know anything about it?
19:18All I know is it's a key.
19:20He said something about immortality.
19:22That's heavy stuff.
19:24We've come to know that Dario's offers
19:26always have major ramifications
19:28here at Lucha Underground.
19:30And Dario said that owning one of these medallions
19:32will pay out.
19:33It will have value.
19:35When Dario makes that promise, Dario delivers.
19:37Yeah, but you've got to remember,
19:39some of those secrets are pretty dark.
19:41Is it almost worth it?
19:43Let's not forget Drago.
19:46Whoa!
19:48Pentagon goes for the cover.
19:51Vamp, we see the Seven Luchadors in this match.
19:54Do you give your advantage to one in particular, and why?
19:57Yeah, well, actually two.
19:59I'm going to say Phoenix, obviously,
20:01because his spirit is just rock and roll.
20:04But I'm a big fan of the violins.
20:07Ooh!
20:08But then again, cover here.
20:11No, Cuerno, sexy.
20:13It's hard to say, bro.
20:14This is 7th world-class athletes.
20:20If you're breaking it down from a strategy point of view,
20:22you have to believe that Cage has the power advantage.
20:24Pentagon is just going to have the ability to end careers.
20:28Phoenix has the high flying advantage.
20:30Cuerno with the calculating kill shot,
20:32maybe the X factor.
20:34And Mack, who we don't know much about,
20:36also may come into play.
20:38You know what, man?
20:39I think Cuerno might have the advantage
20:41only because he analyzes things and takes his time.
20:44Yeah, but we're leaving out one person, though,
20:46and that, of course, is Sexy Star.
20:48We'll get to that as this match rolls on.
20:50And now, kill shot with the waist.
20:51Go behind there.
20:54Kill shot in Cuerno.
20:55Notice how Cuerno tries to keep the hand to gain the advantage.
20:58Gets off of his rear.
20:59Standing face now.
21:00Cuerno with a forearm to the ear.
21:02Slows the wrestling down.
21:03Ooh!
21:04Well, man, Cuerno's a hunter,
21:05and, well, kill shot's got a bullseye in his head.
21:07I don't know.
21:08Draw the parallel as you will.
21:11Kill shot now.
21:12Sent into the corner.
21:13Cuerno creates space.
21:14Gets ahead of Steve, but kill shot steps out.
21:16Use the waist lock to switch.
21:18Kill shot using his environment.
21:20Pass by.
21:21Sends Cuerno in.
21:22Leapfrog to get out of the way.
21:23Kill shot with a drop kick right to the stomach.
21:25That's crazy.
21:27Cage is squeezing the life out of the Mack.
21:34What's kill shot having in mind here?
21:36Vertical suplex.
21:40Ooh!
21:45A lot of action.
21:46Oh, there is Sexy Star.
21:53You can hear the believers come to life for Sexy Star.
21:58Sexy represents everything that Lucha Underground and the temple is all about.
22:02Back to the action in the ring now.
22:04Kill shot in Cuerno.
22:05She represents the temple.
22:06She represents women worldwide, bro.
22:12Now, the powerful cage.
22:15Working in tandem with Cuerno here.
22:19They've won as a team before in certain shows.
22:23Boom!
22:24Well, tonight it's every man for himself.
22:26Mack has a great opportunity to make an impression here.
22:29But Cuerno, we've touched on it.
22:31The thinking man's luchador.
22:33He's in the right place at the right time, so it seems.
22:35Well, Mack just left an impression in his boot.
22:38In someone's face.
22:40Here we go.
22:41Double suplex coming.
22:43Wow.
22:45Sexy lurking, watching.
22:53Cuerno ascends one side.
22:55Cage the other.
22:56They make eye contact.
22:57Here we go.
22:59Whoa!
23:01Cover.
23:02No.
23:03Mack, Cage is a machine.
23:05Do you think Cuerno's grooming him for something?
23:07Grooming Cage?
23:08You think?
23:09I don't know, but I just know they're both racing
23:11to get the end of the match.
23:12They understand what's at stake.
23:14Cage now.
23:15Sexy has never turned down a fight.
23:18Tonight will not be the first time.
23:20Ooh!
23:22Sexy tried to get out of the way of that lariat,
23:24but caught a bit of Cage's fist.
23:27Do you think?
23:28Oh, my God.
23:33That is such a devastating move.
23:35It's almost like a cold one with your leg.
23:37Oh!
23:38Penta got home run.
23:39Everywhere that there's space,
23:41a luchador fills that space.
23:44Now, kill shot in Mack.
23:46Seem to be friendly,
23:47seem to have some kind of amicable professional relationship here.
23:52Wow.
23:55Oh, man.
23:59Mack, of course, is the coach.
24:01Mack, of course, is the cousin of Big Rick.
24:09Man, this is...
24:10Oh!
24:12Oh!
24:16What the hell is going on?
24:18Great action.
24:20Luchador!
24:21Oh, this is the kind of match that's just...
24:23Double cover, double count.
24:25Sexy breaks them both up.
24:28That's not good.
24:29That's not good.
24:31Now about the fact that Sexy Star is still standing
24:33after nearly being decapitated by Cage.
24:36And Sexy's still fighting, too.
24:39Oh, she was.
24:41Oh, she is.
24:42Oh, my God, bro.
24:44Look at this, toss her like a doll.
24:49Smart.
24:52Now, Cuerno and Sexy Star,
24:54they lack hands.
24:55Sexy now getting position, using the ropes.
24:57Classic Lucha Libre here.
24:59Oh!
25:01Didn't see that.
25:02Well, that's Sexy's animosity for Pentagon that took over there.
25:05Back to the action in the ring.
25:07Mack has Cage up.
25:08We haven't seen Cage manhandled like this.
25:11Oh!
25:13Mack's not backing down, man.
25:14We've said it before.
25:15This is something...
25:16The same size, different styles, but...
25:18Whoa.
25:19Remember what they're fighting for.
25:20Dario Cuero has promised an Aztec medallion
25:22and has promised value, riches, and immortality.
25:25Well, you've got a Phoenix, who is immortal,
25:27and the seal can't be destroyed, so...
25:29Covered by a kill shot on Phoenix, too.
25:31Cuerno breaks it up.
25:34Cuerno now maybe going for the throw.
25:36Oh, yes.
25:37Cuerno has won many matches with this.
25:39Referee is down.
25:40Sexy makes the save.
25:41And now Sexy Star into a crucifix pin.
25:44Rick Knox is down.
25:45Pentagon interrupts.
25:47Oh, damn, brother.
25:48Oh, my God.
25:49Pentagon settling things down here.
25:52The settling things down has to benefit guys
25:55like Pentagon, Cage, and Mack, no?
25:58No doubt about it, but, hey, man,
26:00I give Mega Props to Sexy Star,
26:02but she just got destroyed!
26:05Oh!
26:07Mack and Cage now.
26:09Wow!
26:10Showing it to you.
26:11Nice!
26:12Cover here.
26:13This could be a huge win for Mack, no?
26:15And the crowd is on their feet, Mack.
26:17This is awesome.
26:18This is Lucha Underground.
26:20Hell, yeah!
26:21Lucha!
26:22Lucha!
26:23Lucha!
26:24Lucha!
26:25Lucha!
26:26Lucha!
26:27Lucha!
26:28Lucha!
26:29Lucha!
26:30Lucha!
26:31Lucha!
26:32Lucha!
26:33Lucha!
26:34Lucha!
26:35Lucha!
26:36Lucha!
26:37Lucha!
26:38Lucha!
26:39Lucha!
26:40Lucha!
26:41Lucha!
26:42Lucha!
26:43Lucha!
26:44Lucha!
26:45Lucha!
26:46Lucha!
26:47Lucha!
26:48Lucha!
26:49Lucha!
26:50Lucha!
26:51Lucha!
26:52Pentagon and Phoenix now.
26:55Lucha!
26:56Yeah!
26:57Nicely done there.
26:58Phoenix did not let Pentagon get any momentum at all,
27:00and now Phoenix measuring.
27:02Oh!
27:03Cage with the discus line, turns Mack inside-out.
27:08Phoenix wise to get back into the ring.
27:11What does the Firebird have in mind here?
27:16Wow, the power of Cage.
27:19This doesn't bode well for Phoenix.
27:22What the hell is Killshaw doing?
27:24Oh!
27:26Oh!
27:28Oh, my God, dude.
27:32I have been totally with the fans.
27:35It's Sunday, I'm here to say I'm holy.
27:38Here it comes.
27:44Destruction total. Boom!
27:46The arrow from the depths of hell for King Cuerno.
27:50He just delivered the kill shot to kill shot.
27:53Back into the ring, sexy star in Pentagon.
27:56Ooh, long animosity here.
27:59Pentagon has got no love for sexy.
28:02Of course, the history between Pentagon and sexy
28:04as well as several other luchadors,
28:05Pentagon has tried to break the arm of sexy star.
28:08He's successfully broken the arm of many other luchadors.
28:11Uh-oh, what is this?
28:13What is he doing, dude?
28:15Things you've never seen before,
28:17you will see here on Lucha Underground.
28:21Sexy spine shot,
28:23whereas the package pile driver spiked Phoenix.
28:28Good God.
28:30And we've seen this from Pentagon.
28:32This is the prelude to the injuries.
28:34Pentagon likes to trap the arm and then pull back
28:37by popping the shoulder or the elbow out of its socket.
28:40Sexy may have saved Phoenix's arm right there.
28:43No doubt about it, saved his career,
28:45saved his life, saved his livelihood.
28:47Pentagon and sexy now.
28:49Oh, man, but she's...
28:51Oh!
28:52She paid the price.
28:55Was it worth it to be a good Samaritan?
28:58She might have saved Phoenix, but at what cost, bro?
29:05Phoenix turns Pentagon around now, Phoenix.
29:08Wow!
29:09Standing moonsault.
29:12Referee is down.
29:14Oh!
29:15He got him!
29:16Here's your winner, Phoenix!
29:19Phoenix has won the first medallion.
29:23Phoenix has earned one of the seven ancient medallions
29:26that Dario Cueto has promised will be very valuable
29:30down the road.
29:31The fight continues on the outside,
29:34and the question remains for tonight.
29:36What is the value of the Aztec medallions?
29:39And the bigger question,
29:40who will earn the shot at our Lucha Underground champion,
29:43Prince Puma?
29:44Alberto El Patron versus Hernandez.
29:46Dario Cueto once again has offered this.
29:49The match must have a winner.
29:51Therefore, the only way to win
29:53will be by pinfall or submission.
29:55That Lucha is still to come.
29:57What a night, and we're only getting started.
30:13I like you guys.
30:14I really do.
30:15I never thought you could survive as a team.
30:18They haven't won my Trios title.
30:21But the fact is that Castro and Mr. Sisko
30:26beat you guys last week,
30:27so I have given the crew a shot at your belts.
30:31But her leg is still broken.
30:33I only need my hands to beat their punk asses.
30:37Yes, but you will need your legs, too,
30:39if you want to retain your titles.
30:41Because next week,
30:44you three are facing the crew
30:47in a ladder match.
30:51What?
30:52Oh, I could strip you of the titles now
30:55and save you from any more injuries.
30:59No.
31:00We fight.
31:03We fight.
31:07Damn right we fight.
31:14Get off, get off.
31:15Don't touch me.
31:18Can you?
31:23Do you need anything?
31:27I'm telling you, something changed in her.
31:44Silly phoenix.
31:47You fell right into my trap.
31:56You made a mistake when you buried them.
32:02I'm sorry.
32:04I'm sorry.
32:06I'm sorry.
32:08I'm sorry.
32:09I'm sorry.
32:10I'm sorry.
32:11I'm sorry.
32:12Damn.
32:14He needed your power of a thousand lives
32:18so he could be reborn even stronger than before.
32:22And now that he is,
32:24he's coming for you.
32:30But you're just a pawn
32:36for death.
32:42♪♪
32:52♪♪
33:02♪♪
33:12♪♪
33:21The following lucha is to determine
33:24the number one contender
33:26for the Lucha Underground Championship.
33:31The only way to win is by pinfall or submission.
33:38Introducing first, from Houston, Texas,
33:43Hernandez!
33:46Six-foot-five, 290 pounds,
33:50with 20 years of experience in our sport.
33:54Hernandez has held nearly 30 titles in his career,
33:56but perhaps none more career-defining
33:59than the one Hernandez chases tonight,
34:01the Lucha Underground Championship.
34:03No doubt about it, but last week,
34:04he pucked out our champion.
34:05Don't forget that, Matt.
34:07Not afraid of anybody.
34:08Definitely is making an impression
34:10pretty quick here in Lucha Underground.
34:12You don't care that he's in Boyle Heights at all.
34:14And his opponent, from San Luis Potosi,
34:21Alberto El Patron!
34:29Internationally renowned, six-foot-three, 240 pounds,
34:33the AAA Mega Champion, Alberto El Patron,
34:37voted Tecnico of the Year for 2014
34:40by the fans of AAA Mexico,
34:42and now Alberto is here and electrifying the temple.
34:47No doubt about it, man.
34:48He's got the fans in the palm of his hands.
34:50He's got the rest of the world on edge,
34:52and here he is in the temple in Boyle Heights,
34:55Lucha Underground, making the statement, brother.
34:57Alberto El Patron and Johnny Mundo
34:59had an absolute classic,
35:01that Alberto came out on top
35:03and has earned his position here.
35:05Hernandez earned his way here by defeating Cage and Cuerno.
35:09This match is going to be awesome.
35:12No doubt about it, man, but he's not even given
35:15any props to Hernandez, bro.
35:16He's more worried about what the fans think.
35:19He's got something. You know what?
35:20He's got to focus on the task at hand, though.
35:23You heard Melissa Santos give the top of the match.
35:27Dario Cueto's demand that this match must end
35:29in pinfall or submission.
35:31Important to point out that Alberto El Patron's
35:34MMA career, out of his nine victories,
35:37seven of them were by submission,
35:39so this may play in to El Patron's favor.
35:42Hell, yeah. But let's not forget
35:44that little leather fin he's got in his favor,
35:46that lineage of lucha heroes,
35:49which gives him the heart of a lion.
35:52Of course, you refer to El Patron's family,
35:55so they'll go in mis mascaras.
35:57CROWD CHANTING
35:58Yeah!
36:00Oh, my God!
36:03And, Bam, as I look at Hernandez and Alberto El Patron,
36:07I'd be remiss if I didn't mention
36:09that Prince Puma's a rookie, okay?
36:12Puma's reign may be in jeopardy.
36:15These are veterans.
36:16These are veterans of the mat wars.
36:18Whomever comes out on top in this match
36:20really poses, perhaps, the most serious threat
36:23to Puma's Lucha Underground title reign.
36:25There's no doubt about it,
36:26because these guys have been rocking
36:29for 20 years all over the world,
36:31multiple titles between them,
36:33been in wars, know what it takes,
36:35are not scared to take a beating,
36:37and Puma has that cancer in his corner,
36:40which would be Conan, so it's gonna be interesting.
36:44Opinions of Vampiro are not the opinions
36:46of anyone else here at Lucha Underground.
36:49I can't believe that you're a fan of Conan's, dude.
36:51We agree on everything but that.
36:53I don't get it.
36:53If you're a fan of Lucha,
36:54if you're a fan of history,
36:55if you're a fan of tradition,
36:57then you're a fan of Conan.
36:58Brother, he's a dictator, dude.
36:59What's wrong with you, man?
37:00Back to the action in the ring now.
37:03Look at the eyes of Hernandez.
37:06This is a definite change in tempo here,
37:09but when you get guys like this,
37:11it's like two mountains hitting.
37:15And you know, Hernandez can't be happy.
37:16The fact that Hernandez was the number one contender
37:19and then feels that Dario Cueto just pulled the rug out
37:21from underneath and forcing Hernandez
37:23to fight Alberto El Patron,
37:25but Hernandez is a fighter and says,
37:26I'll do what I gotta do.
37:27I don't have to like it.
37:28You know, but you know what?
37:29I also think that Hernandez is no dummy.
37:31He plays that card very well.
37:32You know, hey man, it's not my fault.
37:34And he likes to get into fights.
37:36He's not that much of a wrestler, so to speak.
37:38More of a brawler.
37:39Likes to hurt people.
37:40El Palon taking it to El Patron right now.
37:45Yeah, man, I'm feeling that.
37:47Bro, he is scary as hell, dude.
37:52He's got that battle face on.
37:53It changes things, doesn't it?
37:56And El Patron's taking a lump in.
38:02Hernandez will enjoy a power advantage.
38:04Patron will enjoy big match experience advantage.
38:08Nice.
38:10And here comes Alberto.
38:18Oh, lung blower early in the match.
38:22Grab him, grab him, grab him.
38:23Here goes the experience, like you said, bro.
38:25One, two, no.
38:27Matt, a little too quick.
38:29A little too quick.
38:36Look at the guns of Hernandez.
38:38Booyah!
38:40There you go.
38:41Wake up call.
38:44And that super kick, that thrust kick,
38:47was how Alberto defeated Johnny Mundo to get to this point.
38:50So Hernandez had that move well scouted.
38:52No doubt about it, but he was just raining down
38:54meat hooks on his head.
38:55Those punches to the face are going to take his toll
38:56on Barbie doll.
38:57You know, if you've watched Lucha Libre,
38:59if you've watched wrestling,
39:00you know that the signature maneuvers
39:01are usually the moves that guys use to win matches.
39:04But here in Lucha Underground,
39:05guys have different moves in their arsenals.
39:07The match can end at any time after any move.
39:09This may be it right here.
39:11No.
39:12That's such a great call.
39:13We see everything here.
39:14There are no limits.
39:16But I do like when somebody punches somebody's face
39:18through the mat.
39:20Me, personally.
39:23He's going to pull his ears off.
39:24Oh!
39:28There it is!
39:32Alberto into the cover.
39:33Marty Elias is down.
39:34Not enough.
39:35When you get kicked in the ear like that,
39:37it burns so hard.
39:38It just sends a sensation through your head.
39:40It hurts so much.
39:41Yeah, but let's not forget Alberto planted the seed
39:44with that maneuver on Hernandez's left arm.
39:46Alberto likes to use the armbar,
39:48a submission hold.
39:51Exactly.
39:52And he's calling for it.
39:53He's got Hernandez down,
39:54but to my liking, for a submission fighter,
39:57he's taking way too much time.
40:00Matt, what the hell?
40:02Whoa!
40:05Oh!
40:08What the hell is Johnny Mundo doing here?
40:12What the?
40:18Forget to do that.
40:19I thought these guys were friends.
40:20Oh my, oh!
40:23Whoa!
40:27Holy shit!
40:28Holy shit!
40:29Holy shit!
40:30Holy shit!
40:31Holy shit!
40:32Holy shit!
40:33Holy shit!
40:34Holy shit!
40:35Holy shit!
40:36Holy shit!
40:49We got this, we got this!
40:52Fight like a man!
40:53Fight like a man!
40:54Fight like a man!
40:56Fight like a man!
41:14One, two, three!
41:16Whoa.
41:18Here's your winner, Hernandez.
41:23Johnny Mundo, the man who lost to Alberto last week,
41:27has just snapped.
41:28What the hell is he trying to do?
41:31We have never seen Johnny Mundo act this way, Matt, ever.
41:37Hernandez has just become number one contender
41:41with a huge assist by Johnny Mundo.
41:44They say that the best of the best come here.
41:47The question is, has the temple and all it offers
41:51brought out the worst in Johnny Mundo?
41:54Alberto! Alberto! Alberto!
41:57The medics are there, telling Alberto
41:59he got his ass whipped,
42:01busted the window with his face, Matt.
42:03And I know from experience, this kind of injury,
42:06this kind of shot in the head
42:07is going to send things down your spine.
42:08He's not moving at all.
42:10To Alberto's wife and children watching at home,
42:14our paramedics are going to do their best here.
42:17There is Hernandez,
42:19the man who will challenge Prince Puma.
42:21But the other story is that Alberto, el patron,
42:23is hurt bad, and it's all because Johnny Mundo.
42:27So many questions remain.
42:28The biggest one of all, why, Johnny?
42:30Why?
42:32This is mine!
42:37Johnny Mundo has made an earth-shattering statement
42:42that this temple, Lucha Underground,
42:45is Johnny's world.
