00:00I'm gonna be honest.
00:05La Raza in Mexico, they found out about Blue Demon.
00:08What the?
00:09They're coming, Vito.
00:10I want Black Lotus on a silver platter.
00:13What does that cost me?
00:15Round-the-clock protection from Mexico.
00:20What do you want her?
00:21I have a spot for her right across from my brother.
00:26Dragon, for this unique opportunity,
00:30I'm gonna give you a shot against Prince Puma
00:33for the Loops Underground Championship.
00:36There is one little catch.
00:38If you don't win, you will be banned from my temple forever!
00:42There's Hernandez, the number-one contender.
00:44Friends of Conan.
00:46Oh!
00:47Finish him!
00:48He's gotta fight for his life, man.
00:49He's gotta... This could be it for him.
00:51Shoulders down!
00:52Two!
00:53No!
00:54What do you mean, you're good?
01:24What's up, everybody?
01:53Welcome to Lucha Underground.
01:54We thank you so much for joining us.
01:56A big shout-out to Los Rayobax,
01:58our musical guest tonight, rocking the temple here.
02:01I just wanted to take a quick second to apologize to you,
02:04to apologize to everybody at home.
02:06What happened last week, it should have never been that way.
02:08I've got no business getting my emotions personally involved.
02:11I should have never jumped in the ring.
02:12I'm just wanting to say I'm really sorry about that.
02:15I'm a broadcaster, and that's where it's gotta be.
02:17Based on what happened, Sexy Star is out of action,
02:19but only for a couple of weeks,
02:21as opposed to a couple of months.
02:23Professionally, we have to move on, but personally,
02:25I want to commend you for doing the right thing.
02:27Thank you very much, but, Matt, the show's not about me.
02:30Sometimes you gotta do what's right, you know?
02:33Fair enough.
02:34Thank you, thank you, thank you.
02:36Eight weeks from now, there will be an event so big
02:40that no one will ever forget.
02:42That spectacle, which is the brainchild of me,
02:45a man of class and grandeur,
02:48will be forever known as Ultima Lucha.
02:55Ultima Lucha will be a yearly event
02:58when we will feature the biggest fights
03:01and the most amazing matches.
03:03But what will be the main event?
03:05Well, the answer to that question begins tonight,
03:09because tonight, we're gonna determine the competitor
03:12that is gonna fight for the Lucha Underground Championship
03:14at Ultima Lucha.
03:18Lucha! Lucha! Lucha!
03:23I want the best fighters for my big event,
03:26so I require a challenger
03:28that has climbed the mountain before,
03:30someone that has come close to tasting gold.
03:33So I invited all the competitors
03:35that have competed with Prince Puma
03:37for the Lucha Underground Championship.
03:41And those men, those men are
03:45Hernandez,
03:48King Cuerno,
03:51Cage,
03:53and Phoenix!
03:56Wait, I almost forgot.
03:58Mil Muertes sent Phoenix to an early grave,
04:00so I guess it will be a three-way match
04:03with the winner of that match
04:05having another chance at the title
04:07in the biggest night of Lucha Underground.
04:10Ultima Lucha!
04:15We couldn't have such a big event
04:17without one of the most famous luchadores in the world,
04:20a man that was here in the very first ever match
04:24in Lucha Underground,
04:25the one, the only,
04:27the El Ultimo Emperador Azteca,
04:30Blue Demon Jr.
04:33Oh, wow, talk about a big return
04:35on the heels of Dario's announcement
04:37of Ultima Lucha,
04:39a lifetime career of legend in war.
04:42This man, Blue Demon, it is Lucha Libre.
04:46Wow.
04:50The crowd is popping.
04:52Looks sharp in the suit.
04:56Of course, the origin of Lucha Underground
04:59featured this Lucha Libre legend, Blue Demon,
05:03who has returned to the temple,
05:05and that clearly signifies how huge Ultima Lucha
05:08is going to be.
05:11The thing I love most about this,
05:13there are generations behind generations,
05:16one of the first ever masks
05:18in the history of Lucha Libre.
05:20We're talking maybe over 100 years ago.
05:25Demon, welcome back.
05:27I knew Ultima Lucha would be right up your alley
05:30because you like big events where big paydays, eh?
05:33But if you want to be part of Ultima Lucha,
05:36I have to make sure that you not bring rust.
05:39So...
05:45I have organized a match for you tonight
05:48with another man that makes a return to this temple.
05:56I recognize that silhouette.
05:59Chavo! Chavo! Chavo!
06:07We have not seen Chavo Guerrero since he quit,
06:10and it looks like this time he has some new backup.
06:13Mr. Sisko and Cortez Castro now flank Chavo,
06:17and if you know your Lucha Underground history,
06:19the first edition of Lucha Underground,
06:21mid-condition cardboard back,
06:23we learned about the families, the histories,
06:26the traditions, the fathers and the sons
06:29leaving a lasting legacy forever in Lucha Libre.
06:32It was embodied in the Guerrero family
06:34and the Blue Demon family.
06:36Matt, please expound on that.
06:38Man, I said it before and I'm going to say it again, Matt.
06:41Thank you for asking. This goes back generations.
06:43Can you imagine these two kids growing up in the ring,
06:46getting face-to-face?
06:47Get me a referee,
06:48because these two legends are going to have a match right now.
06:52But, but, but...
06:55Unlike the first match that you two fought,
06:58this time, anything goes!
07:02What the hell was that?
07:03Not dressed for competition, but here we go.
07:06They thought they were going to educate us. Now's the time.
07:08This is a hockey fight.
07:09These two kids grew up together,
07:11watching their dads, watching their fathers,
07:13grandfathers, uncles, aunts,
07:14everybody in the ring fighting,
07:16and here we are in 2015 Lucha Underground.
07:19One more time, Blue Demon and the Guerrero dynasty
07:21going at it.
07:24Yeah, Blue Demon not even in ring gear,
07:26but not one to shy away from a fight.
07:28Of course, Chavo Guerrero,
07:29a 20-year career from the legendary family.
07:33Names like Chavo Sr., Hector, Mando, Gorey, Eddie,
07:36even Eddie's daughter, Shawl Guerrero,
07:38the entire Guerrero family,
07:39synonymous with Lucha Libre.
07:41Bro, this is a setup, no doubt about it.
07:45Dario said anything goes,
07:47and normally that plays into Chavo's way off,
07:49but look at Demon on the fly.
07:51Wow. Oh, Chavo out of the way.
07:53There you go.
07:56Demon, wise to the ring wars,
07:58knows that the crew are lurking about,
08:01and Chavo takes advantage.
08:05There is only two members of the crew out there,
08:07but they look more vicious than ever.
08:09Cisco and Cortez seem almost inspired,
08:13regalvanized with Chavo at the helm.
08:16Maybe that's what they needed to set it up.
08:19Oh, yeah.
08:22You know, some of the words Dario used
08:24to describe Ultima Lucha,
08:26the biggest fights, the most amazing matches,
08:28you can only imagine what Dario has in store
08:31over the next eight weeks.
08:32Unless Blue Demon fires up,
08:34it does not look like he's gonna make it to Ultima Lucha.
08:42Hang on a second.
08:44Chavo now has the kendo stick.
08:47Man, I like this.
08:48I hope that Chavo beats his ass.
08:50I don't like Blue Demon at all, man.
08:53You give us such great history.
08:55Maybe we can have a new series on El Rey,
08:57Lucha Origins, hosted by Vampiro,
09:00drawn by Alex Ross.
09:02Oh!
09:07When Chavo hits you,
09:09the best thing you can do is stay down and cover up.
09:11What Chavo Guerrero is doing to a Lucha Libre legend
09:14has earned Chavo a black mark
09:16in the Lucha community.
09:18And now the crew absolutely disrespecting the legend,
09:21the name, and the mask of Blue Demon.
09:23Excuse me.
09:24Dario said anything goes.
09:26And why do you always insist that Blue Demon
09:28is the only legend?
09:29Don't forget that Chavo Guerrero
09:31is just as much entitled to that word.
09:33I get it, but legend doesn't necessarily mean
09:35that you have to have others do your dirty work.
09:38Well, hey. Hey, man.
09:39Double stomping to the DDT.
09:47Laid out Blue Demon.
09:49Good.
09:52You mother bitch!
10:00Chavo Guerrero now ascends to the top of the ring,
10:04looking for the Frog Splash!
10:07Is Chavo's return a triumphant run?
10:10Yes!
10:12Here's your winner,
10:14Chavo Guerrero!
10:19Chavo Guerrero now with the crew,
10:22making a statement in his return to Lucha Underground.
10:26Chavo clearly sending a message to Mexico
10:28and perhaps ensuring that Blue Demon
10:31does not make it to Ultima Lucha
10:33or ever returns to Lucha Underground again.
10:44ULTIMA LUCHA UNDERGROUND
11:05I'm sorry, but business is business.
11:10You're a liar.
11:11I'm a Guerrero.
11:13You betrayed El Dragon Azteca.
11:15He will make sure Mexico finds you.
11:18After what I did to Blue Demon Jr.,
11:20Mexico won't have a boss to ever come after me again.
11:28Oh, and I hope you enjoy your view.
11:44ULTIMA LUCHA UNDERGROUND
12:04Don't make me call security. You don't belong here.
12:08ULTIMA LUCHA UNDERGROUND
12:11What do you want, Drago?
12:13You offered an opportunity to any man
12:17who has faced Prince Buma for the title.
12:20That includes me.
12:22And you're right. It does include you if you hadn't been banished.
12:25ULTIMA LUCHA UNDERGROUND
12:36Imagine what I will do to Hernandez in that match tonight.
12:43Let me fight!
12:49So the mighty Drago has found a loophole.
12:51Okay, Drago. You're in the match tonight.
12:55On one condition.
12:58You must win it.
13:00Because if you don't,
13:03not only will you still be banished from my temple,
13:07but you will have to leave your mask behind.
13:12Deal?
13:14ULTIMA LUCHA UNDERGROUND
13:22ULTIMA LUCHA UNDERGROUND
13:29ULTIMA LUCHA UNDERGROUND
13:38The Fahway Lucha is a trio tag team match
13:41and is scheduled for one fall.
13:44Introducing first, accompanied by Katrina,
13:48the Disciples of Death.
13:52Well, we first saw these minions of Katrina get involved
13:55in the death match between Phoenix and Mil Muertes.
13:58But this is our first look at them in the ring
14:01as they are led by the sultry, dark, mysterious,
14:06and captivating Katrina.
14:08The lights are kind of going on and off.
14:10There's some weird, weird energy.
14:13And oh my God, she is devastating.
14:17Barrio Negro, Trece, and El Sinestro de la Muerte
14:21make up the Disciples of Death.
14:23And if Sinestro has a power ring,
14:25then I don't know what else to say.
14:28This is the first time that I have noticed
14:30that anybody so obscure has come into the temple
14:33and has actually affected the electricity in the building.
14:36But it's obvious that Katrina leads these Disciples.
14:39The energy that Katrina has in her hand, that rubble stone,
14:43seems to control the forces of mortality.
14:48In this case, death.
14:51It's almost as if these soulless, lifeless beings, entities,
14:56come alive at Katrina's behest.
14:58And their opponents, the team of Bengala,
15:03Mascarita Sagrada, and Pimpinela Escarlata.
15:10The Navy Discovery check both boxes in stride left
15:13because the party's back in town.
15:16You're excited.
15:17Yeah, this is the first time we're seeing Pimpi and Mascarita
15:20back in action here since they were taken out by the crew
15:23nearly four months ago.
15:24Since Sexy Star is on the mend,
15:26it seems that Pimpi and Mascarita have brought a new partner,
15:30making his lucha underground debut.
15:33Brother, not only can Bengala wrestle,
15:36he's a really cool cat too.
15:38Well, with the white tiger,
15:39I guess that makes Pimpi and Mascarita Siegfried and Roy,
15:42and if Bengala eats Mascarita, well, that would just be sad.
15:46Pimpinela Escarlata bringing the carnival, the party,
15:50back to the temple.
15:51The liver of the free life knows how to ignite a building
15:56and absolutely get some love.
15:58Let it go! Let it go! Let it go!
16:01Let it go! Let it go! Let it go!
16:04Let it go! Let it go! Let it go!
16:07Let it go! Let it go! Let it go!
16:10Let it go! Let it go! Let it go!
16:12Well, bam, just on appearances alone,
16:14the contrast between these two teams.
16:16Of course, the Disciples of Death all in dark and black
16:19representing the macabre,
16:20whereas Bengala, Mascarita, and Pimpi all in white
16:24and representing light, so to speak.
16:25Well, I would say the contrast is a little different.
16:28One's short, one's a cat,
16:29and one's kind of, you know, up your alley,
16:31and the other three guys worship the devil,
16:33so you think that would be it?
16:36Ooh, I think they worship death.
16:38They worship the afterlife.
16:40Pimpinela, the liver of the free life.
16:44Drop down now. Pimpinela on the move.
16:47Leapfrog to get out of the way.
16:49Wait for the hip toss,
16:50but Pimpinela well-versed in lucha libre.
16:52Counters with the arm drag.
16:58No, man, you punch him in the mouth.
17:00It's death.
17:01What's wrong with you?
17:04Oh, oh, oh!
17:05Better back it up there.
17:07He might lose an eye.
17:09He has.
17:12Pimpinela enjoying success
17:14in his return here to lucha underground.
17:18It's been all Pimpinela thus far.
17:20Yeah, well, I think everybody's starting to forget
17:22that as soon as you have somebody called
17:24Disciples of Death...
17:25Oh, oh, oh, oh!
17:28Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
17:33Oh, man.
17:34What the hell?
17:37Um...
17:38Oh!
17:39Tag made, and now our first look at Pimpinela.
17:42Let's see if he can earn a strike here,
17:44because I heard he's a perfect competitor.
17:47The pick of the litter.
17:50Your turn.
17:51I asked him how he was feeling.
17:53He said he was feeling feline.
17:55I hope he has more than nine lives.
17:57All right, we're done.
17:58Standing side headlock now.
17:59Bengala pushed into the ropes.
18:01Off and running now.
18:02Great handspring.
18:03Knocked one of the Disciples off.
18:05Ooh, I think that was Trece that suffered the attack.
18:09Now I think that's Trece and Sinistro de la Muerte.
18:17Double whip in now.
18:18Bengala showing the style
18:21that is absolutely welcome here in Lucha Underground.
18:25Nice cross-cross slide with the trick.
18:29They kind of look more organized than I thought they would.
18:32Whoa!
18:33Nice moves out there.
18:34Double by Bengala.
18:36Oh!
18:39Barrio Negro now,
18:40who early on has established himself
18:42as the most aggressive of the Disciples of Death.
18:45That's it.
19:03Nicely done by Bengala.
19:12Oh!
19:16Well, from the stage in Las Vegas
19:18right here to the Lucha Underground,
19:21Bengala like a cat jumping out of a tree.
19:25And Bengala makes the tag to Mascarita Segrera!
19:31Awesome.
19:32Ten points.
19:34Beat him like a pinata.
19:37Break him.
19:38Boots.
19:39Ooh, the outside.
19:40Oh, wow.
19:41Nice pinata.
19:42Wow.
19:56You know what?
19:57You know what I really like about these Disciples of Death?
20:00They put up with it, they went with the joke
20:02and they went with the comedy,
20:03they went with all this that was coming in this match,
20:05and they turned it around.
20:06Katrina just said, hey, that's enough.
20:08Listen, as in life, you put up with the jokes
20:10and you put up with the BS, but death is coming.
20:12Oh!
20:13No doubt about it.
20:20Yeah, ooh.
20:21You know what?
20:22Do it again.
20:37Bengala now back into the ring.
20:39And Bengala seems to be the best chance
20:41that this team of Pimpy Mascarita and Bengala have.
20:47And you'll notice that the Disciples of Death
20:48don't go for cover.
20:49They constantly go to try to inflict pain.
20:53This has just become like a massacre.
20:55But I wouldn't worry about it,
20:56because, like, he's endangered, isn't he?
20:59He is in danger, yes.
21:00Endangered.
21:02Yeah.
21:08A punch to the top of the head
21:09will compress the neck there.
21:15Mascarita Sagrada sent in.
21:17He's the only guy in the world
21:18that has to take 753 steps
21:20to get across the ring.
21:22Mascarita still fighting
21:24from the electric chair position.
21:26Victory roll, Mascarita, no!
21:29Pimpy with the assist!
21:33Oh!
21:36Oh, my God!
21:40That was pretty cool.
21:41Smacked him right in the mush.
21:44Bengala like a caged tiger now.
21:46Oof!
21:49Hang on here.
21:50Disciples working together.
21:54Nicely done!
21:56Hey!
21:58He pulled that out of the depths of hell.
22:00I'm feeling that little darkness.
22:02It's not about pretty moves
22:03and flashy stuff
22:04with the Disciples of Death.
22:06And I like that about this trio.
22:09Throw him out the window.
22:10Yeah, that's awesome.
22:13That isolates Pimpanela Escalante
22:15with the Disciples of Death.
22:17Pimpy now,
22:18fighting with every fiber that he has.
22:25Ooh!
22:26Good.
22:27Big boot of death metal.
22:31That's not good.
22:37What is she doing?
22:42Whoa!
22:43You know, Pimpy's been known
22:44to steal a kiss or two,
22:45but Katrina may have just stolen
22:47a bit of Pimpanela's soul
22:49with that lick of death.
22:50That was, like, weird.
22:52And now, with the salt of Pimpanela
22:55fresh on Katrina's tongue,
22:57the Disciples taking Pimpanela
23:00through the streets of Galilee,
23:02and that has to be it.
23:03Cover here.
23:05Referee down.
23:07The Disciples of Death have returned.
23:10We're your winners,
23:12the Disciples of Death.
23:15The DOD too much for Bengala
23:17and the returning Pimpy and Sagrada.
23:20But speaking of return,
23:22big news.
23:23We have learned that Dario Cuero
23:24is allowing Drago to return to the temple
23:27to compete in tonight's
23:28number one contenders match.
23:30That huge four-way is up next.
23:42Please, Johnny, have a seat.
23:46I want to know why I'm not
23:47in the number one contenders match tonight.
23:49If anyone deserves a shot
23:50at the champion at Ultima Lucha.
23:54It's me.
23:55No, you don't understand.
23:58I expect you to be champion at Ultima Lucha.
24:01Now, please, have a seat.
24:08When I said that I wanted us
24:10to have a new start,
24:11Johnny, I meant it.
24:13I'm not one to hold grudges.
24:15So you gave me a black eye.
24:16Who cares?
24:17I look great in sunglasses.
24:19And when I tried to destroy you,
24:21it was simply business.
24:23But you refused to be destroyed.
24:25And I respect that.
24:29But it wasn't until I saw
24:32what you did to Alberto,
24:33when you gave me a front row seat
24:35to the real Johnny,
24:36the bloodthirsty, arrogant,
24:38breaker of men,
24:40did I realize you are truly
24:43the future of Lucha Underground.
24:46Which is why I want to see
24:48this new Johnny unleashed
24:50on Prince Puma.
24:56What do you have in mind?
25:01You think you're better than Prince Puma?
25:03No.
25:04I know I'm better.
25:07Well, I'm gonna let you prove that
25:09to the world next week
25:11in a concept you've never seen before.
25:14It's going to be Prince Puma
25:17versus Johnny Mundo
25:19all night long.
25:21One show, one match.
25:23Whomever gets the most pinfalls
25:25and submissions by the end of the night
25:28will be the Lucha Underground champion.
25:33Dario.
25:37You just might be the best boss
25:40I've ever had.
25:42To new beginnings.
25:48And a new champion.
25:57The following lucha is a four-way match
26:00scheduled for one fall.
26:02And the winner will be the number one contender
26:05at Ultima Lucha.
26:09Introducing first,
26:11from the 559,
26:15they call him...
26:17Cage.
26:19Well, with Ultima Lucha looming now,
26:21this man that appears before you
26:23since his debut has said
26:25that he doesn't care about heritage,
26:27he doesn't care about tradition,
26:29all he cares about is championship gold.
26:32And Cage could be one step away
26:34with a victory in this match.
26:36Vamp, you've sat down and talked to Cage
26:38in your interviews that are becoming
26:40quite controversial and legendary.
26:43You know what? Back then in the day,
26:45he said he did not care, he doesn't worry
26:47about bloodlines and all that kind of stuff.
26:49He's gonna make his mark and plow through things.
26:51And you know what? He has certainly done that.
26:53No doubt about it. Every time we see him,
26:55he's bigger, he's badder, he's stronger.
26:57He is a machine that will not be stopped.
26:59And from the highlands of Guerrero, Mexico,
27:04King Cuerno!
27:08King Cuerno has had storied wars
27:10with the Lucha Underground champion, Prince Puma.
27:13If anyone has the odds-maker's bet
27:17to win this match, it has to be King Cuerno, no?
27:20No doubt about it. And he has been stalking,
27:23plotting, contemplating, and analyzing
27:25since day one. Maybe it's all coming down
27:28to this final battle. Maybe all along,
27:31he's been tricking everybody and playing us.
27:33The most analytical luchador,
27:35the most cerebral, the thinking man's luchador,
27:38King Cuerno the hunter.
27:40And anyone that hunts has a predatory,
27:42manipulative nature about them.
27:44King Cuerno is no different.
27:46And from Houston, Texas, Hernandez!
27:53Well, with Hernandez in this type of match,
27:55all bets are off.
27:57Here comes a guy that was inches away
27:59from capturing the Lucha Underground championship
28:01and feels that that opportunity
28:03has slipped through his fingers.
28:05The cocky strut of Hernandez tells you
28:07everything you need to know.
28:09And even Cuerno is well aware
28:11of the biggest bear in this fight.
28:13And I'm also very, very suspicious
28:15to this day with his relationship with Conair.
28:17Let me tell you something about Cuerno.
28:19You said he's analytical. I said he's spiritual.
28:21And he's also the one who follows
28:23some type of discipline, some ritual
28:25that hasn't changed since day one.
28:27I see that he's on a path,
28:29and he knows exactly what he's doing.
28:31And finally, making his return
28:33to Lucha Underground,
28:35from El Empramundo...
28:38Drago!
28:40Well, Cuerno must have found a loophole
28:43or made some type of deal.
28:45It is a dark night here in the temple,
28:48and Drago begins again.
28:51That is so crazy.
28:53You said something that is so eerie.
28:56What kind of dark deal did he have to make
29:00to get back here into the temple?
29:03Dario Aquedo banished Drago
29:07after Drago failed to capture
29:09the Lucha Underground title.
29:11But with Ultima Lucha,
29:13Dario Aquedo is bringing back the best
29:16and inviting fighters from all over the world
29:19as Drago makes a return
29:21here to Lucha Underground,
29:23and I, for one, am amped.
29:27So cool.
29:29Anybody who has fought Puma for the title
29:31can be in this match.
29:32How fresh, how devastatingly fresh
29:35is Drago tonight?
29:36Oh, my God.
29:37Per the order of Dario Aquedo,
29:40if Drago loses this match,
29:43he will continue to be banished
29:46and must unmask.
29:48Oh, I guess a deal was made.
29:51The stakes could not be higher.
29:53A four-way match for a chance
29:55at the champion at Ultima Lucha.
29:59We are back here.
30:00This is our main event on Lucha Underground.
30:02All four of these luchadores
30:03have had opportunities at the title before.
30:06Now they fight for one more chance,
30:08this time at Ultima Lucha.
30:11This is just intense beyond belief.
30:13Here we go.
30:14Drago, Cage, Hernandez, and Cuerno.
30:17Cage and Hernandez will have the strength advantage,
30:20and Cuerno will have the strength advantage.
30:22This is just intense beyond belief.
30:24Here we go.
30:25Drago, Cage, Hernandez, and Cuerno.
30:28They're going to have the strength advantage,
30:30whereas Drago and Cuerno are going to have the speed
30:32as well as the agility advantage.
30:34They're going to break this down.
30:35I don't know about that.
30:36That was pretty agile,
30:37just going over the top rope.
30:39But here we go.
30:43This match is going to move
30:44at two entirely different paces,
30:45the pace of Cage and Hernandez
30:47and the pace of Drago and Cuerno.
30:49Well, I think it's the pace of pain
30:51and the pace of fury.
30:54Cage and Hernandez,
30:55there's just no love lost there.
30:56These guys are trying to break down the building.
30:58Maybe we should take the ring out of the way
31:00so they have more room to fight.
31:01Cover here, and of course,
31:02we've been talking about Lucha origins all night long.
31:05Drago and Cuerno,
31:07some of the original Luchadores
31:09here at Lucha Underground,
31:10and Cuerno, to his credit,
31:12has been at the top of the heap since day one.
31:15No doubt about it.
31:16This is an original rivalry,
31:17but something has happened to Drago.
31:18Maybe he's had to go deeper into this thing
31:20where he's doing this mystical association with dragons
31:23because look at his skin.
31:24He's kind of like getting scalier.
31:26Weird.
31:27Let's not forget about the last Luchador standing match
31:31that these two had,
31:32and so many matches
31:33throughout the time of Lucha Underground
31:36are so talked about,
31:37but everything leads now to Ultima Lucha.
31:40This is the turning point
31:42in many of these young guys' careers.
31:44It's do or die, put up or shut up.
31:46There is no tomorrow.
31:47Power of Hernandez here.
31:50While all this is going on,
31:51you have to believe that somewhere,
31:52Conan and Prince Puma are watching and studying
31:55because one of these four men
31:57will be Prince Puma's opponent,
31:59provided Puma remains champion
32:01come Ultima Lucha in eight weeks' time.
32:03Well, maybe Puma better be praying,
32:05and Cuerno is analyzing
32:06where he's gonna get a bigger payday.
32:09Back to the action here now.
32:10The two big boys going at it.
32:12You can't even say that anymore.
32:14Two big boys.
32:15These guys are, like, crazy.
32:17They are just tearing it up.
32:18There's almost like there's no weight class here.
32:21These guys are just agile, agile quick,
32:23and then agile all over again.
32:24And you talk about the agility of a guy the size of Cage.
32:27Little-known fact I found out
32:28is that Cage was gonna be a professional skateboarder.
32:31Really? Yeah, that tells you a lot
32:32about his footwork and his balance,
32:33but he chose Lucha Libre
32:35because you can't really beat people up
32:36in pro skateboarding.
32:37Cover here, no.
32:38Here's a skateboarder like on a tractor-trailer truck.
32:41He weighs about 320 pounds.
32:43No body fat.
32:44He is a machine. Forget about it.
32:46Yeah, well, we'll see Cuerno and Cage
32:48most likely working well together.
32:50They've tag-teamed before,
32:51but it's every man for himself in this four-way.
32:55Man, that is the third time
32:56that Cage is just throwing Drago like a rag.
32:59He is so strong, it's unbelievable.
33:02Wow.
33:03The thirst for being champion,
33:04all four of these men have tasted championship opportunity,
33:07but no bigger stage than Ultima Lucha.
33:09Did you see that stare down there?
33:11A little bit of friction.
33:12Something's kind of turning here,
33:13because don't forget, these guys were...
33:16on the same team there for a bit.
33:18Yeah, you know what I mean?
33:19It's interesting to see
33:20that tensions are discreetly building.
33:24A little discreet, a little overt tension it is.
33:27Cuerno now and Cage.
33:29We've seen this from them before.
33:33Cage just went.
33:35Followed by Cuerno.
33:37Cover here.
33:38Drago senses the urgency.
33:40Oh, Cuerno, almost with a sixth sense,
33:43knew that Drago was behind him.
33:46Don't forget, as you said,
33:47Cuerno is a hunter.
33:48He's analyzed.
33:49He knows it.
33:50Everybody, when you're about to be eliminated,
33:56things are different.
33:57No sixth sense is on fire.
33:59And on top of all the stakes,
34:00Drago has to win this match.
34:01Otherwise, Drago will not only be banished,
34:03but he will be shamed into unmasking.
34:09They talk about hitting a building at full speed.
34:11Good lord.
34:13Oh!
34:15There's that teamwork with the train to nowhere.
34:17Powerbomb into the rugblower.
34:19Drago has enough wherewithal
34:20to keep his shoulders off the mat,
34:22but still, Cuerno right there.
34:24Not a good welcome home, man.
34:25Jesus.
34:27These two are...
34:28Something's gonna happen.
34:32I don't know if Cuerno was thinking about this.
34:34He's gonna have to actually go toe-to-toe with Cage tonight.
34:39These two work together to get the other two out.
34:41Now it looks like Cage and Cuerno
34:43are setting up to go at it with one another,
34:45but the other two luchadores in this match
34:47have a lot to say about that.
34:51Cuerno is...
34:54not backing.
34:55There's something a lot more deeper here.
34:58It's heating up.
34:59Cage is saying, come on, brother.
35:00It's the Lucha Underground Championship.
35:02It's the personal issues here,
35:04and all four of these guys have intersecting issues.
35:07You know, Hernandez is directly responsible
35:09for Drago losing and being banished,
35:11so you have to take that into consideration.
35:15I don't even know which way this is gonna go, man.
35:17It's just too much.
35:18Kind of like when Earth moves, you know?
35:20The continents are grinding.
35:21The mountains are exploding.
35:23Icebergs are cracking.
35:24Plantatonics inside.
35:26Cuerno and Hernandez inside the ring.
35:34Cuerno on the move now.
35:35Oh!
35:36Hernandez with a big bounce.
35:46LBJ! LBJ! LBJ! LBJ!
35:50LBJ! LBJ! LBJ! LBJ!
35:52Drago!
35:53Drago blames Hernandez rightfully so
35:55for causing him to lose his match against Prince Cuerno
35:57and become banished from the temple for life.
36:00Little bit of redemption on Drago's mind here now.
36:02Drago on the move, flips over the much larger Hernandez.
36:05Hernandez goes for the boot.
36:06Drago with the trip.
36:07Now Drago setting up.
36:16That's way better.
36:18No!
36:19Matt, I...
36:20Just like you said, sixth sense is on fire.
36:22Everybody's attentive.
36:23I'm feeling somebody behind me.
36:25I turn around and there is Killshot on the perch
36:28analyzing everything that's going on.
36:31The entire locker room knows what Dario Cueto can do
36:34when giving opportunities.
36:35With Ultima Lucha coming up,
36:37every single luchador is gonna vie for their spot.
36:42People at home cannot understand
36:44how impressive it is to see Cage up close and in person.
36:47He walks by the desk here and he is just a mountain.
36:50Good Lord.
36:51Now back to the subplot of Cage and Cuerno.
36:55Cuerno better...
36:56Oh yeah, I'd feel that.
36:58Here we go.
36:59Cuerno ducks.
37:00Right hand blocked by Cage.
37:01Big forearm now.
37:02Cage picks Cuerno up.
37:04Cuerno slips the slam, pushes Cage,
37:06goes for the kick.
37:07Cage blocks.
37:08Cage goes for the discus clothesline.
37:09Cuerno still too quick.
37:10Pass by there.
37:11These two know each other so well.
37:13Drago interrupts.
37:15Drago just is like...
37:17Great agility by Drago.
37:25Danger, danger, danger.
37:27Perfect set up.
37:28For the moonsault from Cage.
37:30Cage rolls off.
37:31Cuerno takes advantage.
37:33I can't figure it out yet.
37:35I don't know if these guys are kind of like...
37:37Are we friends or are we foes?
37:39Gut wrench.
37:40Oh, nicely done by Hernandez.
37:42Are we victims?
37:43Good God.
37:48And if you're a strategist,
37:49of course you're breaking down
37:50which of these four would have
37:51the best chance against Puma.
37:53And honestly, any four could have
37:56the Lucha Underground title in their hands
37:59come the end of Ultima Lucha.
38:01Yeah, you know what?
38:05Why doesn't anybody go for the cover?
38:07These luchadores realize that every time
38:09they go for a cover, they give up their back
38:11and any wrestler will tell you
38:12you don't want to give up your back.
38:14Forget about it, man.
38:15It's the end of the line, bro.
38:16You gotta go.
38:17You know, nobody wants to give up this shot
38:19at Ultima Lucha.
38:20You give up your back, you give up everything,
38:22but Drago also might even give up his livelihood.
38:24Who knows?
38:33Nicely done by Drago.
38:35Welcome home, baby.
38:41Lucha! Lucha! Lucha!
38:43Lucha! Lucha! Lucha!
38:45Lucha! Lucha! Lucha!
38:53And now the heavy hitters, Cage and Hernandez.
38:55Twin towers.
38:57Hernandez throwing it all out there!
39:00I just felt the floor shake
39:02from Hernandez knocking those two people out.
39:06Well, if you're a longtime viewer or a first-time fan,
39:08you know that when the luchadores are on the floor,
39:10it starts to get hot and heavy.
39:12What does Cage have in mind?
39:15Now's the...
39:16Now's the time to take risks.
39:18There's no way this guy's gonna move...
39:20Oh, he caught it!
39:21Oh, he did not look back.
39:23No fear, no fear, no fear!
39:26Oh, yeah.
39:28We regret the chances that we do not take in life,
39:31and Cage is taking every chance that he possibly can
39:35to become number one contender.
39:37We've seen this how many times?
39:39Querno! Querno! Querno!
39:42Querno.
39:43La flecha del infierno.
39:45Querno noticing a kill shot, sending a message.
39:49Oh, yeah!
39:52Booyah!
39:53Unh!
39:55Shots fired by Querno.
39:57Oh!
39:58Hernandez was wise to get out of the way.
40:00Cage and Drago took the brunt of the attack.
40:02Yeah, he might have a face of a...
40:05You know, it's the wrestling style.
40:07It's the strength, it's what you can do,
40:09but it also matters what you have between your ears.
40:11Sometimes a smart, crafty competitor can win,
40:14and you know who really wins?
40:16Listen.
40:17It's the believers here in the tent.
40:22Oh!
40:24Insane. Insane.
40:26You know what? We've said it a million times, Matt.
40:28When you're at the stage in the game,
40:30the minutes are going on, you're running out of feelings.
40:33This is pure adrenaline.
40:34But with everybody down,
40:35we'd be remiss if we didn't point out
40:37that Drago doesn't need to be pinned
40:39to lose his mask tonight.
40:41So Drago essentially really behind the 8-ball.
40:44So much riding on it.
40:46And Drago pulled down all the stops.
40:50Drago.
40:51Here we go, here we go, here we go.
40:53Drago looking to get his revenge.
40:551, 2, 3!
40:57It's over!
41:00Yeah!
41:03Drago!
41:05Drago!
41:06Drago!
41:07Drago!
41:08Drago!
41:09Drago!
41:10Drago!
41:11Drago!
41:12Drago!
41:13Drago!
41:14Drago!
41:15Drago!
41:16Drago!
41:17Drago!
41:18Drago!
41:19Drago!
41:20Drago!
41:21Drago!
41:22Drago!
41:23Drago!
41:24It's all about second chances and taking opportunity.
41:26Drago defeated his old nemesis, King Cuero,
41:29to earn the opportunity at Ultima Lucha
41:32that has to feel good.
41:34And now the welcome back for Drago.
41:37Hell yeah, welcome back.
41:39The intensity in this building right now is insane.
41:42Drago!
41:43Drago!
41:44Drago!
41:45Drago!
41:46Drago!
41:47Drago!
41:48Drago!
41:49Drago!
41:50Drago!
41:51Drago!
41:52Drago!
41:53To show you how quickly life can change.
41:58Six weeks ago, we thought we'd never see Drago again.
42:01Now, we are looking at the two luchadores
42:04that will fight for the Lucha Underground Aztec Gold Championship
42:08at Ultima Lucha.
42:10Drago!
42:11Good night, everybody.
42:13Drago!
42:14Drago!
42:15Drago!
42:16Drago!
42:17Drago!
42:18Drago!
42:19Drago!
42:20Drago!
42:21Drago!
42:22Drago!
42:23Drago!
42:24Drago!
42:25Drago!
42:26Drago!
42:27Drago!
42:28Drago!
42:29Drago!
42:30Drago!
42:31Drago!
42:32Drago!
42:33Drago!
42:34Drago!
42:35Drago!
42:36Drago!
42:37Drago!
42:38Drago!
42:39Drago!
42:40You made a mistake not putting Mil Mortes in that match.
42:41Mil has never faced Puma for the title.
42:42And that is exactly why Prince Puma is still champion.
42:54Mil Muertes destroys everything that gets in his way.
43:00So tell me, why are you in his way?
43:04I'm not, I didn't know Mil Muertes wanted to be champion.
43:09Every man, mortal or immortal, craves power.
43:17So why are you in his way?
43:20I'm not.
43:22How about in two weeks, Mil faces Drago
43:26and the winner of that match goes on to face
43:28the champion at Ultima Lucha?
43:36Wise choice.
43:40Even the monster you hide in that cell
43:43is no match for Mil Muertes.
43:51Mil Muertes.
