There's ya boy Sami. There's a lot to look forward to with him this season. The live crowd had NO IDEA what to make of him hugging Ivelisse, I'll tell you that. It's funny when the announcers play confused at something because the crowd is usually legitimately confused

You shall all soon witness the power of my Tragic 8-Ball!
This may be a nerdish lore question, but seeing London's White Rabbit group with an Aztec tribe graphic made me wonder if LU's ever explicitly stated what the Seven Tribes are. Looking at the best version of the GotG title belt I could http://imgur.com/a/ZpFcD I'm trying to match tribe graphics to what we've seen so far.

From left to right:
1- Some kind of ram or sheep skull, unknown tribe
2- Rabbit, for London's new group
3- Moth, most likely, the rich sickos Marty and Mariposa
4- Snake. Kobra Moon and formerly Drago
5- Flaming bird, probably Fenix
6- Man with cat headdress, obviously Puma
7- Another skull face thing, with a lizard tongue and what looks like feathers or scales. No idea.

Am I thinking too hard about this or have they not given us all seven of the tribes yet?

It was real weird. Worth mentioning I suppose that this was during the first weekend of tapings, and I think like Sexy's first actual match of the year, and all the rest of the Sexy Star versus Worldwide Underground stuff was backfilled later. This was when Sexy was very much on the outs with AAA and a lot of folks thought this was just her dropping the title in kind of a clusterfuck before she was on her way out. But plans changed (especially since Ivelisse's injury left Sexy as the only female face on the roster).

#7 might be Dragon Azteca's tribe, they've mentioned in one match that the Dragon and Puma tribes used to be allied.

#1 might be death, related to Mil Muertes?

Yeah, this was kind of the dregs of the first weekend of tapings. The most important stuff (aside from the title change to Johnny) really happened in the vignettes, setting up Chavo/Rey for next week, the GOD THING that Dario has in the box, and the end segment with Vamp and Puma. Not that much ring-wise.

Next week should be really good. Do not miss.

Because it's secretly just a melodrama about spacemen and dragons and gods downloaded into mysterious artifacts and also Johnny Mundo, who is just a big jerk.

It felt like they were setting up major storylines (New people showing up, vignettes for new people, Dario being possessed by an Aztec god or some poo poo and/or looking for a new vessel of him?). It was a bit dull from a wrestling stand point though.

Cage and Texano are having a Best of Five series to determine who gets to become a vessel for a ancient Aztec god.

It's not that kind of test.
Special shout-out to Matt Striker this week for referring to Ivelisse as "raven-haired."

Though, with that said dark red ravens would be super rad.

I tried giving the Dusk Till Dawn show a chance since they do a lot of marathons on El Rey. It's not actively terrible, I guess, just kinda boring and not something I'd go out of my way to watch. Decent background noise.
