BRM Reviews the 5/20/2015 Lucha Underground

[Big Red Machine]

MARTY “THE MOTH” MARTINEZ vs. PRINCE PUMA (w/Konnan)- 4/10
Good for what it was, I guess.

POST-MATCH SEGMENT- Hernandez shows up so Konnan cuts a promo on him and offers him a title shot right now, but Hernandez declines it for some unexplained reason.

VAMPIRO INTERVIEWS JOHNNY MUNDO- GREAT (aside from those five seconds where Vampiro got REALLY hyper)

DARIO MEETS WITH THE CREW- good stuff.

DELAVAR DAIVARI vs. EL TEXANO JR.- no rating. Good segment… but I’m a little disappointed that Ryck is back to being a hired henchman for a rich heel again so quickly.

CATRINA HAUNTS DARIO CUETO- she wants him to book Mil Meurtes vs. Fenix in a deathmatch for next week. So Dario says why not. Also, she seemed very interested in Dario’s key, and Dario was very protective of it.

BLACK LOTUS STUFF- she apparently ran away from her sensei so she could go kill Dario’s brother Matanza. Then Chavo Guerrero Jr. showed up and told the sensei “if you don’t want her to die, you’re going to need my help.” What does Chavo have to do with any of this?

CHAVO AND DRAGON AZTECA TALK!- exciting!
PAYOFF FOR THE “MEXICANS ARE GOING TO COME AFTER CHAVO” COMMENT FROM THE FRIST FEW EPISODES! HOORAY! Also, more discussion of the Aztec tribes! And did Chavo say that Dragon Azteca is a “Cueto?!”


LADDER MATCH FOR THE LUCHA UNDERGROUND TRIOS TITLES: Angelico, Son of Havoc, & Ivelisse(c) vs. The Crew- 7/10
A good match, and a rather safe one to my untrained eye. Great finish, too.

A great show from Lucha Underground.
