The Official Lucha Underground(Season 2)on El Rey Discussion

[Art Barr]

Rewatched Aztec Warfare today and I can't believe I didn't realize before how blatantly they've been building Cage up for a Matanza match. Like it's obvious they eliminated him and Mil before Matanza's arrival so they can have them face him later on, but the first time I didn't get exactly how much they've built Cage back up. This whole feud with Johnny Mundo is just to bring the guy back to the level he was on when he first debuted in LU because that guy, The Machine, is a legitimate contender for Matanza.

Only thing I wish they had done differently with Matanza is that instead of having him move like Jason Voorhees/the Frankenstein monster, he should be storming around in the ring like an unhinged animal, like a grizzly bear of destruction. Like how it is with Brock Lesnar really, yeah Brock's strength is pretty scary but when you see Brock move, that's when he gets really scary because the guy has the speed of a jaguar. If Matanza moved like that in the ring it would be absolutely insane, and he probably could if they let him. The guy's nickname in the indies isn't Mr Athletic for no reason.

Cage is my favorite character on this show.
I hope he gets the title but real talk, I could see him never getting it and putting over talent.

Very good match but production continues to be a huge problem for this show.

The editing and pacing sucks. Cameras seems to miss a lot of moves as well. Announcing is horrible, too. Vampiro is terrible and because of the pacing, they really aren't allowed to give much dramatic weight to anything.

That's my while thing, people are going to nitpick instead of letting go and enjoying it.


I loved it so much I'm gonna watch it a third time.

I watched it three times too

Looking back it was good that they found a way for Mil to not square off with Mantanza just yet save that for Ultima Lucha.

As for Mantanza's gear as much as I like the "escaped from the mental ward" look it reminds me too much of Erick Rowan's gear and that's

You mean,....daniel Wyatt.

Matanza was built up for a season plus. He ate one of the guys from the crew. Are we really not hooked into the story line ? I think hes playing his role fine so far.

Im really looking forward to the trios stuff. Right now theres a lot of people with one partner and no third.
Mack/Sexy Star, Moth/Mariposa, Johnny/Taya, Drago/Aerostar, Jack Evans/Darewolf. Whos gonna be the third for these squads, if they are even in it?

[Misanthrope]

Build a case against Dario? nikka, you got him for conspiracy to murder for feeding Bael to Matanza.

 

[DaylitoJames]

The Crew and Joey Ryan it should have been Officer Castro, Officer Joey Ryan and snitch D'Angelo Russell

 

[DaylitoJames]

Build a case against Dario? nikka, you got him for conspiracy to murder for feeding Bael to Matanza.

To be fair Castro could be jailed as a accessory to Bael's death since he pushed him into Mantanza
