00:01You are one of the main reasons why I came to Lucho Underground.
00:05Always so close to the brass ring, but it always remains out of your grasp.
00:10Hey, I'm not just some guy you can slap around.
00:14I think I deserve to face Prince Puma for the Lucho Underground Championship.
00:17Hernandez won the match. He never beat either one of us.
00:21I look forward to finding out which one of you is the best.
00:24Stop! He got him!
00:25Alberto El Patron is one step from becoming number one contender for the Lucho Underground title.
00:31What the hell is Johnny Mundo doing here?
00:37Hernandez has just become number one contender.
00:41I want to see this new Johnny unleash on Prince Puma.
00:46What do you have in mind?
00:48Prince Puma versus Johnny Mundo. All night long.
00:52Two new beginnings and a new champion.
00:55LUCHO UNDERGROUND
01:25Lucho Underground
01:46Royal Heights is the coolest place on the planet.
01:49And this is a temple. Lucho Underground.
01:51I am Vampiro with my sexy partner, Matt Stryker, who is a rock star in my book.
01:57Thank you very much, Mexican Dub Wiser.
02:01Matt, what's going on, brother?
02:03Well, by order of Dario Cuero, the Lucho Underground champion, Prince Puma,
02:06must defend his championship the entire night in a match against Johnny Mundo.
02:11Whomever earns the most pinfalls and submissions by the time we go off the air
02:16will be the Lucho Underground champion.
02:18Ladies and gentlemen, let the Lucho roll on, because tonight we do it all night long.
02:25Let's go!
02:27Damn!
02:29The four-way Lucho is one match, one show, all night long.
02:35Whichever Luchador has the most pinfalls and submission victories by the end of the night
02:41will be the Lucho Underground champion.
02:44When the bell rings, the match is over.
02:48Introducing first, the challenger from Los Angeles, California,
02:55Johnny Mundo!
03:08And his opponent, he is the Lucho Underground champion,
03:14Prince Puma!
03:18Ladies and gentlemen, tonight we bring you a wrestling fan's dream.
03:23Who else can do what we're about to do tonight?
03:26One match, two of the greatest Luchadors on the face of God's green earth.
03:31Whomever has the most pinfalls or submissions by the time we go off the air
03:36will be the Lucho Underground champion.
03:38And with Ultima Lucha just around the corner, this match is huge.
03:41This match is beyond huge.
03:43I don't even know what to do, man.
03:45I wouldn't know what to do.
03:46I wouldn't care for something like this.
03:48It's a beating for a whole hour.
03:50That's crazy.
03:52Here we go.
03:56If you know your Lucho Underground history, you'll remember that 32 weeks ago
04:00these two Luchadors stood in this very ring.
04:03It's only fitting that these two meet tonight on this historic match
04:07only here on Lucho Underground.
04:09They are main event.
04:11It's got main event written all over both of them.
04:13Puma extending his hand.
04:14What a champion, what a class warrior.
04:16He's grown so much, man.
04:18The history between these two runs rich and deep.
04:21These were the final two Luchadors in Aztec Warfare.
04:24Of course, Prince Puma went on to capture the Lucho Underground championship.
04:28Ever since then, we have seen this slow turn in Johnny Mundo's attitude.
04:33He's become more aggressive, turning his back on the believers here in the temple,
04:37concentrating on one thing and one thing only, the Lucho Underground title.
04:40Well, we're just starting the night off by disagreeing.
04:42I told you from day one, Johnny Mundo was two-faced and that he was selfish
04:49and he had an attitude and an agenda.
04:51And it just goes to show that I called it like it is,
04:53and here we are seeing the fruits of my endeavors of paying attention.
04:57Drop toehold there, of course, Johnny Mundo, an excellent, excellent mat-based grappler.
05:01But a lot of fans were turned off when Johnny Mundo threw Alberto El Patron's face
05:06through Dario Cueto's office window.
05:08It was then in there that the temple realized that Johnny Mundo
05:10is out for one person and that person is Johnny Mundo.
05:14Let me tell you something right now, Matt.
05:16That is one of the only moments, I got a few of them,
05:18but that's one of the ones that I have on my replay button on my iPhone
05:21that I watch constantly as putting his face, Alberto's face through that window.
05:25I love Johnny Mundo for that.
05:27Nice take down here and every single cover, every single submission hold
05:32carries so much weight.
05:34But these two have got enough gasoline in the tank to fly around the world 200 million times.
05:38It's going to be tough to get somebody to submit.
05:41Don't you think? Speaking of high flying, of course, the number one contender
05:44to the Lucha Underground title, Drago, watching and waiting in his lair.
05:47Drago will face the winner of this match for the Lucha Underground title
05:50at Ultima Lucha.
05:52But before we get there, we must complete this historic night.
05:59The fans just want to see Rocket World tonight.
06:03How much do you think that Plumas hometown is going to come to his favor
06:06tonight like tonight?
06:08Well, I think Puma, of course.
06:10And you'll notice that Conan has chosen not to accompany Prince Puma
06:13to the ring for this match.
06:15The champion is indeed ready, but Conan will be paying close attention
06:18throughout the match to your question.
06:20Conan has instilled a great fighting spirit in this champion,
06:24whether it be hometown or miles away from home.
06:27Prince Puma understands what's at stake.
06:29You know, it's kind of tripping me out.
06:31So how do you know so much about what Conan thinks?
06:33I've watched diligently, I've studied.
06:36Listen, we can talk all we want about our differences and opinions with Conan.
06:40But right now, Conan's protege is the Lucha Underground champion, Prince Puma.
06:44Prince Puma is a champion and Conan is lucky enough to be in his corner.
06:47But that's another story.
06:49Johnny Mundo is definitely taking him down judo style.
06:51Headlock takeover.
06:53Puma keeping his shoulders off the mat.
06:55Mundo's shoulders down.
06:57Referee, senior official Marty Elias assigned this contest.
06:59Johnny keeping his head close to his opponent.
07:00Now Puma trying to get back to a vertical base.
07:02Normally, Puma enjoys the speed and athleticism advantage,
07:05but not so much on this night.
07:07I'm liking a more aggressive Johnny Mundo.
07:12Vamp, let me ask you, you've been in some long storied wars.
07:16The longer a match goes on, who do you think it benefits here?
07:19You know, when two guys are vying for so much,
07:23you know, ego, prestige, championships.
07:25Places in history.
07:27It comes down to who's going to be able to stand up at the end of the day.
07:30And man, I wouldn't even be able to answer that question, Matt.
07:33Puma spills to the floor.
07:35Now normally in these matches, you try to avoid one pinfall.
07:37Hang on a second.
07:39Johnny Mundo on the move.
07:41Nobody home.
07:43Mundo landing on his feet.
07:45That's that parkour ability.
07:47Puma shows championship ways.
07:49Wow.
07:51You know, these two guys have been in wars
07:53for over 34 weeks, 10 million years.
07:55You can say what you want.
07:57They know each other inside and out.
07:59Scouting or no scouting.
08:01This is down to the wire.
08:03There is hatred on the inside of both these men.
08:05Ladies and gentlemen, this historic night continues.
08:07Prince Puma versus Johnny Mundo.
08:09We're doing it all night long.
08:11We'll be right back here on Lucha Underground.
08:21Welcome back to Lucha Underground.
08:23Cover here by the champ.
08:25If you're just joining us,
08:27hang on a second.
08:29Crucifix by Mundo.
08:31If you're just joining us,
08:33Prince Puma and Johnny Mundo will be in this match
08:35for the duration of the night.
08:37Whomever has the most pinfalls or submissions
08:39by the time we go off the air
08:41will be the Lucha Underground champion.
08:43The only place you're going to see something like this
08:45is right here on Lucha Underground.
08:47Exactly, Matt.
08:48I have been in wars.
08:50I have spent so many years in the ring.
08:52I've been a champion all over the world.
08:54And I can tell you right now,
08:56I would have never been able to do what these two do.
08:58The shape they're in.
09:00The stamina they have.
09:02The fortitude. Incredible.
09:04Setting the bar high each and every week.
09:06The evolution of the athlete on display here.
09:08Champion Prince Puma has Johnny's shoulders down.
09:10And Puma...
09:12Prince Puma, one.
09:14Johnny Mundo, zero.
09:16Alright, keeping score at home.
09:18One to nothing.
09:20If the night ended right now,
09:22Prince Puma would be the champion.
09:24But we have miles to go before we sleep.
09:26That count was just a little too quick.
09:28Don't tell me I'm wrong.
09:30I watched it. That was a quick count.
09:32We'll keep our eye on Marty Elias' count
09:34as the match rolls on.
09:36But Johnny can't get fazed, man.
09:38It's like the Stanley Cup playoffs,
09:40you know what I mean?
09:42Just because someone scores first
09:44doesn't mean the game is over.
09:46Johnny with the kick to the gut
09:48and Johnny fighting from behind.
09:50There's the neck breaker.
09:52Johnny going for the cover quick.
09:54Referee is down.
09:56Just a one count there.
09:58Deep double leg hook
10:00into Johnny right now to the ground and pound.
10:02I don't know if anybody notices,
10:04but Puma's head just bounced off the ring mat
10:06like a basketball.
10:08That's going to take its toll over the long run.
10:10Don't make any mistakes about that one.
10:12Johnny now there.
10:14Modified key lock bicep cutter.
10:15Starting to get a little more aggressive.
10:17We touched on it early.
10:19Cover here.
10:21And that's the magic of the Lucha Underground fans.
10:23They want to see a fight.
10:25As long as you don't quit,
10:27they will support you, no doubts.
10:29Normally a submission presents itself
10:31a lot quicker than a pinfall.
10:33Would it behoove Johnny to go for a submission?
10:35Hang on, cover here.
10:37Could Puma go up two? Oh, no.
10:39Would it behoove Johnny to go for a quick submission here
10:41and try to even the match up?
10:43I don't know if it's going to behoove him.
10:45It's going to be a pin.
10:47Hang on a second here.
10:49Nicely done.
10:51Great tuck standing moonsault.
10:53Shoulders are down, not enough.
10:55No, that's no way he's going to,
10:57it's no way, it's not time.
10:59But Johnny, favoring his neck.
11:01You see that? He got rocked.
11:03You take a glance at your clock at home,
11:05you see how much time is left in this match.
11:10Of course, as you fall behind in decisions,
11:12the clock becomes your enemy.
11:14With the reversal, sends the champ Puma in.
11:21Great counter there by Johnny Mundo.
11:23Okay, that was so fresh
11:25because Johnny just nailed him full on
11:27with all his weight.
11:29Hook him, hook him, hook him.
11:31Cover here.
11:33Notice Johnny's not showboating
11:35and he went over there, he moved his butt.
11:37Something simple like a dropkick to the midsection
11:39knocks all the wind out of your opponent.
11:41Johnny wise to go for the cover there
11:43to the arm.
11:46Hang on a second there, unique.
11:48Not enough.
11:50Van, there are so many different submissions
11:53that one can go for on the arm.
11:55I mean, can you dive into Johnny's mind
11:57and maybe speculate what Johnny has in store?
12:00I would think that Johnny knows Puma very well
12:02and he knows that giving him the injury now
12:04is going to be in his favor later on in the night.
12:07Maybe it's a card he's tucking away.
12:09He's working on that now.
12:11Maybe he's trying to freak Puma out
12:13and I'm thinking that's his only strategy.
12:15Johnny keeps on the wrist,
12:17controlling the left arm of the champion.
12:22Van, how do you pace yourself in a match like this?
12:24You know you have to go the entire night.
12:26Nice cutter there!
12:28We've called it so many times.
12:30I think at this stage in the game
12:32it's adrenaline and ego and pride.
12:34Don't you think?
12:36There's no pace in here, man.
12:38This is just ass whooping.
12:40Prince Puma doesn't have enough in the tank
12:41to go for the cover.
12:43You have to start to question the injury
12:45to the left arm of Prince Puma.
12:47Puma now trying to create space.
12:49Space, of course, Puma's best friend
12:51because of Puma's speed.
12:53We've seen Johnny sustain some injuries
12:55over the last weeks.
12:57It's only a matter of time
12:59before these bodies start to give out.
13:01They can't be bouncing around like that forever.
13:03Hang on a second here.
13:05End of the world.
13:07Perfect position for Johnny Mundo
13:09but Puma has it scouted.
13:11Prince Puma won!
13:13Johnny Mundo won!
13:16You know what?
13:18That was totally fresh.
13:20That was so awesome that he did that.
13:22Johnny looked over his shoulder
13:24to see where Marty Elias was.
13:26Johnny knew exactly where he was
13:28and took advantage.
13:30Either way, the decision counts.
13:32Both of these luchadores each have a victory.
13:34When we come back, we'll find out
13:36who's going to pick up the momentum.
13:38Lucha Underground continues all night long next.
13:40Welcome back to Lucha Underground.
13:42The challenger Johnny Mundo on the floor.
13:44Prince Puma inside.
13:46Each man owns a victory over one another
13:48in this all night long contest.
13:50Whomever has the most pinfalls or submissions
13:52by the time we go off the air
13:54will be the Lucha Underground champ.
13:56Vamp, your thoughts thus far?
13:58I am so happy that he cheated.
14:00Sorry, man, it's war.
14:02You're going for the gold.
14:04Referencing Johnny Mundo using the ropes
14:06to get the victory before we went to break.
14:07And now we are back and both men
14:09start from square one here.
14:11Puma with the schoolboy.
14:13Referee is down.
14:15Not enough.
14:17It just amazes me the conditioning these guys got.
14:19It's just like nonstop.
14:21There's no rest spots.
14:23You know what I'm saying?
14:25They're just rocking.
14:27And those punches are definitely
14:29taking the lifeline of Puma.
14:31Of course, the Lucha Underground title
14:33is of the utmost importance.
14:35But now with Ultima Lucha around the corner,
14:37Mundo in.
14:39How can Puma even come up with blocking this stuff?
14:41Johnny's so quick and he's attacking that body
14:43from every angle.
14:45He puts a hold on him.
14:47When you go to counter, he's on the other side
14:49and just blasts you.
14:51You're not going to like my answer,
14:53but it's the great training of Conant.
14:55Cover.
14:57Johnny is just attacking Puma
14:59from every single angle possible.
15:01Well, we've talked about the Puma
15:03being a counter wrestler,
15:05constantly taking advantage of mistakes
15:07of Prince Puma in the last minute
15:09to two and a half minutes of this match.
15:15You called it.
15:17There you go.
15:19Fans are coming alive and you know very well
15:21that brings Puma to life.
15:23That's right.
15:25And you talk about motivation.
15:27You talk about things that inspire.
15:29If you look at Johnny Mundo's career,
15:31his entire career, Johnny has never captured
15:33that elusive world title
15:35and really had a nice long reign
15:37of supremacy.
15:39Johnny understands that a victory here
15:41could be the first step.
15:43Whoa!
15:45He's never been the man.
15:47Just say it like it is.
15:49Don't be so politically correct, man.
15:51He's just never been the man.
15:53Let's kind of eat at him.
15:55Notice, Marty Elias
15:57not making any counts.
15:59No count outs here.
16:01And that, of course,
16:03by order of Dario Cueto.
16:05Dario wants to see
16:07if he can finish Puma
16:09with Ultima Lucha around the corner.
16:11Where's Johnny going?
16:18What the hell?
16:20A tool kick.
16:22Jair Crobar in a box.
16:24As long as he didn't pull
16:26a little person out from under the ring,
16:28we're good.
16:30Mundo now turns it around.
16:32The fight on the floor.
16:34Pinfalls have to come in the ring, though.
16:35The second fireman's carry.
16:37What's Puma going for here?
16:39Oh!
16:41Oh!
16:47We bring it to you
16:49unique and different each and every week.
16:51Why should tonight be any different?
16:53This is Lucha Underground.
16:55That was just so awesome, man.
16:57The violence,
16:59the weapons, the brutality.
17:01I just...
17:03Matt, I want to hit someone with a chair.
17:05That's it for me, buddy.
17:07Hang on a second.
17:09Amidst the carnage,
17:11Johnny's got something in his hands there.
17:13That Crobar right to the gut.
17:15No disqualifications here.
17:17And Johnny's going to take full advantage.
17:20This is the darker side that we've talked about.
17:22Oh!
17:24Booyah!
17:28Oh, my God.
17:30Holy shit!
17:32Holy shit!
17:33I don't mean to knock the money,
17:35but I broke his cranium.
17:37Puma is out.
17:39Johnny understands.
17:41Pinfall has to happen in the ring.
17:43Both guys each have a decision.
17:45Johnny's looking to go up 2-1 here.
17:47And that's what he does.
17:49Wow, easy.
17:51Cover him again, cover him again.
17:53Right now, cover him again.
17:55100% agree with you.
17:57Grab him again.
17:59But there the ego of Johnny Mundo comes into play.
18:01Johnny said, it's my world,
18:03it's my world.
18:05The champion, Prince Puma.
18:07Referee Marty Elias has a civic duty
18:09to check on the wellness of the competitor.
18:11The luchador says, I want to continue.
18:13Here we go.
18:15Let's swim to the moon, moonlight drive.
18:17Pin him, pin him, pin him, pin him.
18:191, 2, 3.
18:21Johnny Mundo, 3.
18:23Prince Puma, 1.
18:25Yep.
18:27If Johnny continues these high impact moves on the head,
18:29Johnny's going to run away with this thing.
18:31He's running away right now.
18:343 pinfalls to 1.
18:36Johnny Mundo in control.
18:38Whomever has the most pinfalls or submissions
18:40by the time we go off the air
18:42will be the Lucha Underground champion.
18:44Man, he got clocked.
18:46Right in the bean with a crowbar.
18:48Where's Conan now?
18:50I'm sure Conan is watching.
18:52Sure, he's watching.
18:54Willing his protege.
18:56Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:58Mundo on the move.
19:00Oh!
19:01Now you have to start to worry about concussions.
19:03Now you have to start to worry about this kid's career.
19:06Yeah, well, where's...
19:08I don't want to say it.
19:10End of the world.
19:12Perhaps the end of Prince Puma's title reign.
19:14Referee is down.
19:16Johnny Mundo, 4.
19:18Prince Puma, 1.
19:20You called it.
19:26Johnny Mundo with 4 victories
19:28to 1 of Prince Puma.
19:29You look at your clock at home.
19:31You do the math.
19:33You see how much time is left.
19:35And now you have to ask yourself,
19:37what does Prince Puma have?
19:39This is enough.
19:41This is enough.
19:43Hang on, what is this?
19:49Johnny Mundo feels that he has this match
19:51well in hand.
19:53Taking a little bit of a beverage break.
19:55Matt, I don't want to change subjects.
19:56But we got to start thinking about Puma's health.
19:58You know what?
20:00Live to fight another day.
20:02You were at camp for so long.
20:04Let it go.
20:06Let it go, man.
20:08But Ultima Lucha right around the corner.
20:10That big, big payday.
20:12That big paycheck.
20:14That's why Puma is still in this thing.
20:16And that's why Mundo is fighting so hard.
20:18And now the disrespect.
20:23And if you look at Prince Puma,
20:24you look at the champion
20:26pulling himself up,
20:28willing himself back to his feet.
20:32Wow.
20:36Johnny smells blood.
20:38I always like to see a shark
20:40before a feeding frenzy.
20:43While time may not be on Puma's side,
20:45there is still some fight
20:47in the champ.
20:49Nicely done.
20:51That's not fair.
20:52Nicely done.
20:54Let's not forget, hometown.
20:56Look at Johnny.
20:58Puts the foot on the ropes out of instinct.
21:00It shows you where Johnny's head is
21:02versus where Puma's head is.
21:04Well, maybe unfortunately
21:06those years of experience Johnny has
21:08are going to pay off finally.
21:10Maybe he's going to get the ball
21:12and score that touchdown.
21:14Maybe he is finally going to become the man.
21:16Think of all the wars
21:18that Johnny Mundo has been through.
21:20Think of all the wrestlers,
21:22who have come close to this moment
21:24right here and right now.
21:26But Prince Puma
21:28will not let the championship dream die.
21:30Prince Puma will fight
21:32with every ounce of venom and vinegar
21:34that beats in his heart.
21:36Oh, this doesn't...
21:38Oh!
21:40Goddamn!
21:42Oh, my God.
21:44Ladies and gentlemen,
21:46you are watching Lucha Underground.
21:48This match for the Lucha Underground championship.
21:50Johnny Mundo with four victories.
21:52When we come back,
21:54the quest continues
21:56here on Lucha Underground.
22:01And we are back.
22:03Welcome back to Lucha Underground.
22:05The challenger, Johnny Mundo.
22:07The champion, Prince Puma.
22:09This match goes all night long.
22:11Whomever has the most victories
22:13by the time we go off the air
22:15will be champ.
22:17Vamp, I'm all for the aggressiveness.
22:19I'm all for the weapons.
22:20When you try to take a man's life,
22:22when you try to put his head
22:24through the apron like he just did,
22:26that is not right.
22:28I'm sorry to say it.
22:30That was totally wrong.
22:32If you're just joining us,
22:34Johnny Mundo has hit Prince Puma
22:36in the head with a crowbar.
22:38He's given Prince Puma a neckbreaker
22:40on the ring apron,
22:42and now the steel ladder.
22:44Damn it, Johnny.
22:46That's a cursing.
22:48Prince Puma got his ass
22:50kicked out of the ring.
22:52Instinct, like you said.
22:54Instinct.
22:56What is he doing?
22:58Johnny Mundo has been known
23:00to use the temple,
23:02use the environment.
23:04That parkour background of Johnny Mundo
23:06gives Johnny that X-factor.
23:08Has a very unique offense
23:10that no one else is capable of.
23:12Look at the fans covering their eyes.
23:14I don't even know what to make of this.
23:16I hate to say it,
23:18but it's almost too extreme for me.
23:21What's he doing?
23:24Of course, no count-outs,
23:26no disqualifications.
23:28See the looks on the faces
23:30of the believers.
23:32The only champion they've ever known
23:34in this temple is Prince Puma,
23:36and now it seems that Johnny Mundo
23:38is running away with this thing.
23:40I understand Johnny's pissed off.
23:42I understand he wants it.
23:44I understand he's never been the man,
23:46but you don't gotta do this
23:48to somebody else.
23:50The look in his eyes
23:52tells you a far greater story
23:54than anything Vampire Eye can tell you.
24:03Did you hear what he just said?
24:05I want to do this.
24:07I want to hurt him.
24:12Prince Puma has not voluntarily
24:14been on his feet
24:16for quite some time.
24:18This goes from being
24:20a threat to an assault.
24:25Johnny's got the advantage, brother.
24:27He doesn't gotta do this anymore.
24:29He can just, you know, wait it out.
24:31Like a soccer team, you know what I mean?
24:33Yeah, but there's something
24:35about Johnny's ego.
24:37There's something about the message
24:39sent to the entire locker room
24:41that is definitely watching this match.
24:43He definitely wants to walk in
24:45the Whoopi Malucha as a champion.
24:47But then again, you know what?
24:48If I had the confidence that I have
24:50in my brain,
24:52maybe I would do the same.
24:54Hang on a second here.
24:56It shows you how important
24:58this championship is.
25:00But the champ still's got some fight in him.
25:02What the hell are they doing?
25:04Everything that they have to do
25:06to become Lucha Underground champion.
25:08Fighting amongst the believers.
25:10The fans.
25:12There is no safe port
25:14here in the temple.
25:16The first signs of offense
25:18from Prince Puma in quite some time.
25:20And you brought up about how
25:22Puma is here in his hometown.
25:24Puma now amongst his people,
25:26amongst his family,
25:28now finds the fight.
25:30Matt, I'm gonna put this down, man.
25:32I'm about to go up there
25:34and watch this thing.
25:38Oh, Jesus Christ.
25:41Holy shit!
25:43Holy shit!
25:45Did you hear that bang?
25:47Oh, it was at the floor.
25:49That was Johnny's ribs
25:51coming out through his lungs.
25:53And now Prince Puma
25:55back up and moving.
25:57Adrenaline is a wonderful thing.
25:59What the hell is he doing?
26:03You gotta be kidding me.
26:07Prince Puma has a table
26:09to add to the others.
26:11What's coming next?
26:13Your guess is as good as mine.
26:15Prince Puma, not one, not two,
26:17but three tables.
26:19And the end is nigh,
26:21perhaps, for Johnny Mundo.
26:23This is insane, man.
26:25I'm actually starting to dig it, brother.
26:28Bringing back memories.
26:30That pain.
26:32When you're at this stage, man,
26:34forget about that championship.
26:36You just want to feel that pain.
26:38This, of course, for the first time ever,
26:40this match all night long,
26:42the champion Prince Puma.
26:43Johnny Mundo,
26:45whomever has the most victories
26:47by the time we go off the air,
26:49will be our champion.
26:51Johnny Mundo leads it
26:53with four victories to Puma's one.
26:55But right now, Prince Puma
26:57looks to be setting up
26:59for victory number two
27:01and perhaps some momentum.
27:03He's got a lot of work to do, man.
27:05That's a big mountain to climb.
27:07Time is ticking.
27:09Forget about ego.
27:11Forget about this and that.
27:13It's ominously below.
27:15Who knows what Prince Puma has in mind.
27:18Puma finally gets his wits,
27:20realizes that Johnny tried to end his career
27:23with a crowbar,
27:25and now Prince Puma looks to do the same
27:27to Johnny Mundo.
27:29This is back and forth.
27:31This is violent.
27:33Somebody's going to get effed up
27:35in a big, bad way.
27:37Oh, my God.
27:44The thrust kick sent Puma crashing.
27:47Luckily, Puma avoided the tables.
27:49Did he just mafia kick his face
27:51off of the balcony to the floor?
27:54Oh, shit.
27:56The ladder is still there,
27:58and we've seen Johnny use the ladder
28:00as a weapon before.
28:02Johnny trying to gauge
28:04where his opponent is.
28:06That parkour Spidey-like ability
28:08of Johnny Mundo.
28:10Now up here on our bandstand,
28:11the Mexican Dubwise,
28:13your better move.
28:15Why is he going up there?
28:17Can I just say that that was probably
28:19one of the coolest things
28:21that I've seen so far in Lucha Underground?
28:23Johnny Mundo, Spider-Man.
28:25Uh-oh, that way.
28:27Look at the scoreboard.
28:29Mundo, four.
28:31Puma, one.
28:36Last I heard,
28:38most falls over the course of this show
28:39leaves Lucha Underground champion.
28:42He's burning time, dude.
28:44That's exactly what Johnny's doing.
28:46Play a song.
28:48Play a song.
28:50Play a song right now.
28:52Pardon me.
28:54Well, as M. Bison gets the band going here,
28:56Johnny Mundo will just let the clock run out.
29:09Hang on, hang on.
29:11Puma,
29:13with the last fiber of his being,
29:15with every ounce of training,
29:17the sounds of Conan's voice,
29:19whatever beats in Puma's Aztec heart
29:21is what's willing the champion.
29:23Well, he's just busting his head
29:25with a two-on-one.
29:27And listen,
29:29even with a pinfall here,
29:31Puma still has a chance
29:33to win the title.
29:35He's got a chance.
29:37He's got a chance.
29:39He still has a lot of ground to make up.
29:42Oh, man.
29:44That's a big, big mountain to climb, man.
29:50That's a lot of expensive equipment up there.
29:55Oh, yeah, baby.
29:58Jose Feliciano across your dome.
30:02Well, I said it before, and I'll say it again.
30:05A little bit of Pete Townshend right there
30:07busting the guitar.
30:09All the believers realize
30:11that they are a part of something special here tonight,
30:13a part of history.
30:15Oh, my God.
30:19Underneath that carnage
30:21lies the Lucha Underground champion
30:24and the challenger,
30:26ladies and gentlemen,
30:28Jose Feliciano.
30:29And the challenger,
30:31ladies and gentlemen,
30:33come right back,
30:35because Lucha Underground continues.
30:50Welcome back to Lucha Underground.
30:52The believers standing tall
30:54as Prince Puma and the challenger
30:56lie underneath that carnage.
30:57You are superhuman.
30:59And the fact that Puma is the first one stirring
31:01gets these believers going.
31:03They still believe in the champ.
31:05Puma is back on his feet.
31:07Every second wasted
31:09is one second closer
31:11to Johnny Mundo's first-ever
31:13Lucha Underground championship reign.
31:19And look at Puma.
31:21Look at Puma
31:23trying to drag Johnny back to the ring,
31:25trying to go for a pinfall,
31:27trying to stay in this fight,
31:29trying to keep his last final claws
31:32on the Lucha Underground title.
31:34Dragging him to the ring.
31:38It's inspiring.
31:40You got to admire the kid's heart,
31:42Prince Puma.
31:44Warrior. Warrior.
31:46No other way to say it.
31:49It's not looking good, man.
31:51Time is running out.
31:53It's almost like the end of the game,
31:55but you can't throw in the towel.
31:57This fight began.
31:59Puma in.
32:01Mundo's shoulders down.
32:03Referee.
32:06It may be elementary.
32:12But now Prince Puma has cut the lead in half.
32:14And again,
32:16look at your clocks at home.
32:18Do the math.
32:20Does Puma have enough time
32:22to pull out the absolute miracle?
32:25Matt, if you were Puma,
32:27what would you do right now?
32:29I would go for every single pinning combination
32:31that I know.
32:33Small package, sunset flips, schoolboy, you name it.
32:35Mundo, I'd stay away.
32:37Okay, well, Puma's got to pick up the pace
32:39and don't forget that Johnny's been working on his arm.
32:41That might be a factor.
32:43Remember, submissions come into play as well here.
32:47From our vantage point,
32:49Johnny bleeding from the bridge of his nose
32:51as well as the back of his head.
32:53Come on, Puma.
32:55The fact that either of these two guys are standing
32:57just how tough they are.
32:59Come on, man, you got to pull it off, kid.
33:01Forget about the one-on-one.
33:03Go for it, go for it.
33:15Wow.
33:17Just hockey fighting to the end.
33:19Here you go.
33:25Johnny ducks now, uses the ropes.
33:27Went for a kick.
33:29Puma rolled out of the way.
33:31Puma with a kick of his own.
33:33Go, go, go, go.
33:35Back to the middle of the ring.
33:37Hang on a second here.
33:39Oh!
33:41Still not enough.
33:43Come on, man, you got to pick it up.
33:45What does Puma have up his sleeve here?
33:47Could it be enough?
33:49One, two, oh!
33:51Johnny Mundo, four.
33:53Prince Puma, three.
33:55And now you got to start to go.
33:57You look for the empty net.
33:59Now you got to go for the Hail Mary.
34:01It's four to three, and time is winding down
34:03for Prince Puma.
34:05This is insane, man.
34:07This is magic.
34:09This is what it's all about.
34:11The challenger with his shoulders flat on the mat.
34:13The champion with his face off the mat.
34:15Looking for something.
34:17Maybe looking for Conan.
34:19Maybe looking to the believers.
34:21But Prince Puma has to fight
34:23with everything he's got left.
34:25He needs his crowd.
34:27He needs his crowd.
34:29Puma, go for it, brother.
34:31Time is not on your side right now.
34:33And you can feel the momentum
34:35starting to shift here,
34:37and Johnny Mundo feels it as well.
34:39Wow.
34:41Johnny steps out of bounds and tries to stop the clock,
34:43although the clock continues to run.
34:45Johnny is up four wins to three,
34:47and Johnny realizes that momentum
34:49is on Puma's side.
34:51The ring is tilting in favor of the champion.
34:53No doubt about it.
34:55I don't mind being a dirty player,
34:57I don't mind being a coward, man.
34:59Get in there and fight.
35:01Well, in the record books,
35:03it won't say how Johnny won.
35:05It'll just say that Johnny Mundo
35:07is the new Lucha Underground champion.
35:09Wow.
35:11Johnny just trying to take a knee now
35:13and run out the clock.
35:15And Puma literally chasing Johnny,
35:17both figuratively and literally here.
35:19Well, no amount of training
35:21is going to prepare you for this one.
35:23How bad does he want it?
35:25I mean, listen, like it or not,
35:27this is a very smart strategy by Johnny Mundo.
35:29It's a great strategy.
35:31I didn't expect to see that from Johnny Mundo.
35:33Wait a minute.
35:35Puma's quick.
35:37Johnny quicker.
35:39Don't get frustrated, kid.
35:41Pay attention.
35:43And now if Conan were out here,
35:45at least Conan could provide
35:47some sort of distraction,
35:49some sort of traffic.
35:51What are you doing, man?
35:53Get out of here.
35:55No, don't stand behind us.
35:58We're back on here.
36:00Johnny Mundo trying to use
36:02every single thing he can.
36:04Prince Puma with that kick, though.
36:06He may have the opportunity here.
36:08Puma climbs high.
36:10Can Puma tie it?
36:12Here we go.
36:14The champ will find it.
36:16That was Puma's opportunity right there.
36:18Took too much time, brother.
36:20Johnny Mundo is increasing
36:22his distance.
36:24The further and further
36:26Johnny goes from Puma,
36:28the further the championship
36:30goes from the hands
36:32of Prince Puma as well.
36:38Hang on.
36:40Who's that?
36:42What was that?
36:44What happened there?
36:46Bang!
36:47The last time we saw that man,
36:49his face went crashing
36:51through a window
36:53at the hands of Johnny Mundo
36:55and everything that belonged
36:57to Alberto El Patron.
36:59Oh, boy!
37:01Johnny coming back down the hallway.
37:04What the hell is going on?
37:06Up, up, up!
37:08Ooh!
37:10The scene of the crime.
37:12Oh, shit!
37:13Oh, shit!
37:19A pissed-off Alberto El Patron
37:21has returned to the temple.
37:25But the clock still ticks.
37:40As we reset ourselves
37:41here at our announced position,
37:43Alberto El Patron
37:45hits him quickly down!
37:47Two, three, four!
37:49And Puma, four!
37:51Johnny Mundo, four!
37:56Hang on.
37:58Alberto has something to say.
38:01Los Angeles!
38:03El Patron is in the house!
38:09Hey, Johnny,
38:11looks like this match is even,
38:13but you and I,
38:15you and I battle.
38:17We are far from even.
38:21If you walk away with the title tonight,
38:23just be ready,
38:25because I'm gonna kick your ass
38:29and take it from you.
38:31And you, Puma,
38:33if you win,
38:35just be ready.
38:37I'm coming for you
38:39and the Lucha Underground title
38:41but, of course,
38:43you already knew that.
38:46Whatever Johnny Mundo took away
38:48from Alberto El Patron
38:50when Alberto was laid up
38:52in the hospital,
38:54Alberto El Patron
38:56has just issued a receipt.
38:58We're tied, four victories apiece.
39:00The clock ticks.
39:02Here we go!
39:04I don't even care what's going on anymore, man.
39:06I'm freaking out.
39:08This is insane.
39:09He needed a miracle
39:11and he got it in the form of Alberto El Patron.
39:14Matt, what the hell's gonna happen
39:16if this ends in a tie, dude?
39:18The show's almost over.
39:20It's not gonna end in a tie
39:22that much, I can assure you,
39:24knowing our owner, Dario Cueto.
39:26We will not leave until there is a winner.
39:28No!
39:31Oh, man, this is so awesome.
39:33Desks flying.
39:35Backslide here.
39:37NWA title was won with that move years ago.
39:39One second, sunset flip.
39:41It's not enough, no.
39:43Stacked, shoulders down, no.
39:45Fish out of water, these two.
39:47Big knee to the face, two.
39:49Oh!
39:51Vamp, I'll state the obvious, my friend.
39:53Whomever gets the next pinfall and submission
39:55is gonna be the Lucha Underground champ.
39:57Matt, Matt, Matt!
39:59Time is running out!
40:01Come on, man, time is running out!
40:03Someone's gonna take this.
40:05Let's go!
40:07As each second ticks off the clock.
40:09Is this it?
40:11Puma setting Johnny up now.
40:13Johnny still has a lot of fight in him as well.
40:15Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on!
40:17Kick to the gut, Johnny's mouth agape,
40:19gasping for air.
40:21Oh!
40:23Standing Spanish Black, C4, new champion!
40:25Oh, man!
40:27Lucha, Lucha, Lucha!
40:29Lucha, Lucha, Lucha!
40:31Whoa!
40:33Lucha, Lucha, Lucha!
40:35The believers feel like they're in a match.
40:37Us here at the table feel like we're in a match.
40:39We have a heaving chest and a pounding heart
40:41because of what's riding on this tonight.
40:43No doubt, man.
40:45Look at the beating these two have taken.
40:47Covered in blood, bodies scarred.
40:49People out of breath.
40:51The desk is busted.
40:53Let's not forget that a majority of this match
40:55has been in favor of Johnny Mundo.
40:57The tide began to turn.
40:59The appearance of Alberto El Patron
41:01really put momentum in Puma's favor.
41:03But Johnny is trying to recapture
41:05what he's had this entire match.
41:07The fans are on their feet.
41:10Here we go.
41:16Still precious seconds left.
41:18This is it.
41:20Puma willing himself back to his feet.
41:22Mundo doing the same.
41:24These two world-class luchadores
41:26putting everything on the line.
41:28Come on, come on, come on.
41:30Look at the space between the two.
41:32Look at the distance.
41:34Go, brother, go, brother, go, brother.
41:36Puma needs to make up this space right now,
41:37right here, for everything you've got, kid.
41:39Come on.
41:43Perfect positioning there.
41:45And Puma realizes it.
41:47Here we go.
41:49Wipe the sweat from your brow.
41:51The championship hangs in the balance.
41:53Tick-tock, tick-tock.
41:55What does Puma have?

42:39fell off the clock,
42:41Prince Puma

42:45to the stratosphere.
42:47The lucha underground champion
42:49rides a wave of momentum
42:51going into Ultima Lucha

43:02Ladies and gentlemen,
43:04I've had a chance to call
43:05some of the greatest matches
43:07of the last 10 years, in my opinion.
43:09I'll tell you, I'm damn proud
43:11to be the voice attached
43:13to that right there
43:15because there aren't a lot of places
43:17and a lot of guys that can do
43:19what these guys just did.
43:21Prince Puma, the lucha underground champion,
43:23went all night long
43:25for that pearl on that striker.
43:27This is lucha underground.
43:29Tell your friends, boy.
43:35Thanks for watching.
