Previously, Lucha Underground would have ended later this year in November, after the 39th Episode according to the press release. But now, that has been extended substantially and the fans in the Arena can rest easy knowing it’ll be staying around longer. We’re no strangers to LU, and with its impressive & diverse roster, with the likes of AAA Champion Alberto el Patron, Johnny Mundo (Morrison), Pentagon Jr. Angélico, Prince Puma (Ricochet) and one of the best Authority Figures in wrestling Dario Cueto, the company has become a cult-smash hit among fans.
Lucha Underground sent shock-waves through the landscape filled with Traditional American Wrestling/Sports Entertainment and just like back in the mid-1990’s with ECW, LU has become must watch television for anyone who wanted “something different”.
