The fact that Vibora was able to take Luchasaurus with him because it wasn't a company trademark is one of the few feelgood stories about the end of this show.

It's my headcanon that Luchasaurus was a clone of Vibora with the DNA genetically engineered to be more sophisticated and friendly.

Honestly I recall less of a decline in quality than it just being harder to pay attention to because it was obvious their fate was sealed and also they burned through pretty much all the goodwill they had when it came out they were leaving all their wrestlers on the hook waiting for possible renewal. It was a good idea for a wrestling show, if only they’d had a business plan behind it.

I think they were really banking on Season 1 really going places, business-wise. There were tons of problems with even that season. Canned/heavily edited wrestling always does poorly. When your opening match of your first episode is Chavo Guerrero and I can't remember, that really damped a lot of channel flickers interest.

Chavo vs Blue Demon Jr I thought the very next match after it (aka "Face Sexy Star has a lot of ineffective offense against heel Son of Havoc who's determined to not hurt her because he's a man wrestling a woman, who finally hits A Single Move and beats her clean") was worse personally. At least there were some alright spots between Chavo and Demon, even if that particular matchup didn't work well in the LU format

The AAA guys were pretty much the only ones that still had active contracts, right?
