Lucha Underground doesn't make any money and gets worse ratings than TNA.

Considering that Alvarez has spent two full years of LU bitching non-stop about how Pentagon is so over and they keep beating him and its going to ruin him, and yet Pentagon continues to be insanely over, its reasonable to think that LU may have some idea of what they're doing even if it defies traditional logic.

Turns out it's easy to be over if you're a good worker and you only have to wrestle in front of the same couple of hundred fans every match

LU makes a lot of stupid decisions about who should lose or not and expect people to just go along with it. Like having Fenix get destroyed but then expecting people to think he can beat the man that beat the man that beat him.

To be fair LU has also done a good job building a roster who has strengths and weaknesses against certain other wrestlers. They have a paper-rock-scissors setup with a lot of people.

I'm okay with any storyline that pays off with Dr. Wagner Jr showing up because I love that crazy gravel-voiced old bastard. My only complaint is that they didn't license Bad Medicine :mad:

Wagner's manager probably doesn't think Bon Jovi is famous enough.

LU pays a bunch of cool people to do fun things that I enjoy, and that the guy who runs the network enjoys.

A+ promotion in my book.

yeah, it must be good especially considering that AAA is starting to not pay low or mid card dudes that they rep for working shows

Jeff and Punk feuded the first half of the year over the WHC and then lost a "Loser Leaves WWE" match against Punk in August so he could leave to heal from multiple injuries. In other words, the last time Jeff was in WWE.

Alexa Bliss is going to do a new pipebomb: I don’t hate you, EC3. I don’t even dislike you. I do like you. I like you a hell of a lot more than I like most people in the back. I hate this idea that you’re the best. Because you’re not. I’m the best. I’m the best in the world. There’s one thing you’re better at than I am and that’s kissing Dario Cueto rear end. You’re as good as kissing rear end as Sheamus was. I don’t know if you’re as good as Terry Funk though.
