Signed up for FuboTV and am hype as gently caress for the premiere tomorrow.

Another Person posted:

if this show could get onto netflix like that other El Rey property on this pic it might actually take off because it is the perfect "1am stoner looking for something to watch in awe" programming. but it will never happen.

Shouldn't be that hard to get season 1 on some service unless they're asking for an arm and a leg for the rights. Netflix, Amazon and Hulu are hungry for content.

I missed everything before shao khan mil, did much happen in the intro?

Vampiro was in an insane asylum. He was picked up in the desert by Matt Striker. Fenix wanted to cash in his belt tonight but Catrina (the new owner) told him next week...if he still has it

Or they just dubbed better sounding chop noises over top the original ones.

The only time I recall hearing Havok's voice being played with were the telenovella segments; they didn't seem to be doing any of that for the in-ring stuff.

They did it last night when he was talking in the ring before the match.

Also, plenty of "gently caress Cornette" chants during breaks and before the show, which everyone (fans and staff and producers and Vampiro) seemed to get a kick out of.

Everyone please tweet this to Cornette so we can get a long term feud going between the two (even better if they actually hire him and put him in the Hernandez role) (even even better if it ends with Corny getting chased around the ring by fans with belts)

Boo mo-cap. I wish we could get a new wrestling game with a good animator doing the moves. AKI's moves were brutal looking.

Is that a WWF comic book reference with the guy wearing the hotrod shirt? I could swear a kid in that comic (was it the granny one with the nasty boys and bushwackers?) wore one.

Forgive my ignorance here but what exactly is Sexy Star's rationalization for getting a Hogan-ish big head and refusing to job?

She held the title for over a year and only got booked to lose it after she complained publicly about what a pointless title it was.

More shocking...was that Puma doing the Angelico jump from the top of the office?

WrestlingInc saying they've been told LU's close to a Hulu deal; 2 seasons with a 3rd option http://wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/2016/0330/609135/lucha-underground-close-to-signing-deal-with-top-streaming/

Not as good as getting a Netflix deal in terms of exposure but a pretty big coup for wrestling fans. $7.99 (or $11.99) a month gets you Lucha Underground, Raw, Smackdown, Main Event, Superstars and NXT (plus NXT specials)

There's a rumor that (major spoiler) prince puma was killed off during the season 3 tapings and they're going to release him from his contract so he can go to WWE

Pretty big blow if it's true but as long as they have Pentagon Jr, I think they'll be ok. He's the true star of Lucha Underground.

A Netflix deal would be game changing. That would make them leap frog over NJPW as the number two promotion in the world IMO. Hopefully they are prepared to capitalize on it with merchandising (way more than they currently have)

Season 3 season pass is now available on iTunes.

I still don't understand why they don't put this up on any other VOD store.
