Lucha Underground Results & Review: 01/07/15

We start the night with a video package highlighting the past few weeks; they also highlight the announcement last week by Dario Cueto that this week will be Aztec Warfare for the new Lucha Underground Championship.

We are welcomed inside the temple by Matt Striker & Vampiro. We see musicians and dancers as Dario Cueto welcome us to his temple. Cueto says 2015 is going to be a great year for Lucha Underground and it all starts tonight when we witness Aztec Warfare. Cueto says the one who wants to be champion will have to survive 19 other competitors. He says the rules for Aztec Warfare are simple, two wrestlers will begin in the ring then every 90 seconds another will enter, eliminations are by pin fall or submission, and anything goes. Cueto introduces the two that will begin the match. #1 is Fenix who Striker pointed out lost last week to become #1. #2 is Johnny Mundo who Cueto says it was by random draw.

Elimination #19: Johnny Mundo

Winner: New Lucha Underground Champion Prince Puma

After the match Konnan makes his way to the ring. In the ring Mundo and Puma shake hands and hug, as we go off the air.

My View: What an amazing show, and amazing night in the history of Lucha Underground. Only a few notes to make on the incredible show. The first is Fenix almost missed a dive onto Cuerno, this is not the first time his opponent has had to jump to catch him, he needs to time those better or it will be a short career for Fenix. Pentagon Jr. hit a power bomb on Prince Puma where Puma landed onto Pentagons knee and bent his body in a weird way, although the announcers called it like it was suppose to happen you heard Vampiro grimace, so that tells me this was a botched move that could of seriously hurt Puma. When Chavo made his entrance Striker started saying Chavo before his music even hits so clearly the announcers know the order of the participants. The crowd was hot and into it all night, I found it funny that they were so into the match at one point they forgot to count. By now many fans know who is under the mask of Prince Puma, and Ricochet is far from a rookie so it surprises me they keep calling him one. Like I said this was an extraordinary show and I am going to watch again when I am not reporting on it just so I can enjoy it more as a fan. Thanks for reading and see you next time in the temple.

Editors Note: Please watch for my next column as I will be discussing the significance of the Lucha Underground Championship.
