Almost think one of GoW were gonna betray his partner and join nZo!

As always, fantastic stuff

Pope, TK & nZo are a testament of how well you develop interesting characters. They are a constant highlight of your dhows and are what I come back for even more than the actual matched!

The general feel you generate throught your words is fantastic. It's gritty, it's underground, I love it

It feels like what Wrestling Society X should have been

Brian Milonas vs. Aron Stevens I smell The Question Mark

You mean the manly scent of Mongrovian perfume made of crushed beetles from the mountains and freshly cut coriander?

Amazing Warfare!! Perfectly booked! Enjoyed Kendrick, he's a man with a plan indeed. Star-making performance for Laredo, and just like in real life he steals the show only to come up short. Top notch work, felt like I was watching the show and not reading it.

Thank you my friend!

Really kind words, I appreciate it

Laredo is my Fénix in this game, he puts on great performances every time... But i'll see if I pull the trigger

Papa Shango!!!! Now that's a great character to have in LU. Well done.

He seems to be MADE for this universe, right? Makes me wonder if LU approached him IRL, after all they had HTM make a cameo as a prison guardian.

Aztec Warfare! Papa Shango! Animo!

Good show man, two Aztec Warfares on the boards in the same 24 hour period... love it!

Thank you dude!

Aztec Warfare is the BEST, but as you know a little difficult to write, it's a huge bit! Hopefuly i've done as good as you did

Thank you for the support!

Aztec Warfare is the BEST

Got introduced to a lot of interesting characters. I usually shy away from CVERSE diary because I don't know any of these dudes, but the context of LU allows you to dive me a good insight to who they are and what they want.

Loves JSP as a RVD type of athletic douchy guy, and the Priest has a killer look.

Looking forward to see more of this!

EPISODE 36: TAG TEAM EXCELLENCE

You weave your spell, your eyes they beckon me

Your lips they speak, lies and misery

I know it's wrong, but I can't turn away

The flames draw near, they're telling me to stay

Into the fire! I'm falling

INTO THE FIRE!

Welcome everyone NWA Powerrr! David Marquez and Joe Galli welcome us to this all new show from the National Wrestling Alliance. Studio Wrestling is hosting a NWA World Tag Team Championship match TONIGHT as Doug Williams & Thomas Latimer of Strictly Business will defend against the formidable Paul Ellering-led team of Gzim Selmani and Sunny Dhinsa, Occam's Razor. Joe Galli announces that on March 13 & March 14, the NWA will be BACK ON PAY PER VIEW! As the NWA will hold a double header: it's the return of the NWA Pop-Up Event, LIVE from Atlanta Georgia!

Exciting news, and it's now David Marquez who announces us that next week will feaure a larger than life 1h30 Super Powerrr edition of the show! Already announced for this Super Powerrr show the much waited Thunder Rosa vs. Vipress. Will Vipress sneak attack Rosa again, or will we have a fair match? Vipress said that she played games with Rosa because she wanted her to lost her temper and thus have an advantage when she meet her for good in the ring. Like a predator, the Serpent of Evil wants to pick her time and place! Right now, we get Thunder Rosa with interviewer Sean Mooney in order to pick her mind on the whole situation.

The FORMER NWA Women's World Champion thanks Mooney for having her. Sean Mooney recaps the even: Vipress jumped her at this very stand. She then was scheduled to face her but attacked her again before the bell, preventing the match from taking place. Then, she distracted her from a tag team match, leading to Thunder Rosa leaving the match and partner Serena Deeb taking a loss. What's her mind on all that?

First and foremost, Rosa wants to apologize to Serena Deeb. She let her alone, and she's sorry. She's not the type to throw off a match, she's a born fighter. But Vipress made her lose her temper, yeah. And that's apparently what she wants! She thinks that if she stays cold-blooded and get Thunder Rosa angry, she will get a decisive advantage over her... But she's dead wrong. Rosa says that fury is in her, it's in her Mexican blood. She's from TIJUANA for heaven's sake! The madder she gets, the more violent she becomes. And Vipress made a huge strategic mistake, because next week she got what she wanted: an angry, ANGRY Thunder Rosa... And an angry Thunder Rosa is bad news for ANYONE who crosses her path.

Mooney is about to ask Thunder Rosa one more thing, but here comes NWA Women's World Champion Serena Deeb.

Deeb heard her name called, so she couldn't help but come out. She heard Rosa's apology for leaving her all alone to face Kamille and Marti Belle... And that's ok. That's cool. Serena will have to defend her title against Kamille after being pinned by the Brickhouse, and she can't wait to face such a formidable foe... But let things be clear: after she's done with Kamille, and after Thunder Rosa has kicked Vipress' ass all over Atlanta... They will meet again. They will have a rematch with the richest prize in women's wrestling on the line, the NWA Women's World Championship! Rosa nods, and the two women get into a little tense staredown... Before shaking hands. Mooney thanks them, and reminds us that Thunder Rosa will face Vipress NEXT WEEK!

1. Jervis Cottonbelly vs. JR Kratos

Last week, JR Kratos made his return to the NWA with a surprise attack on NWA World TV Champion Anthony Bennett, beating down the young man and posing with the NWA TV title belt. The self-proclaimed "God Of War" now has a chance to return to official action with a match against NWA resident Gentleman, Jervis Cottonbelly.

Cottonbelly, although his antics are fun and popular with the families in the crowd, is a wrestler who has a lot of tricks in his bag. We've seen him get a few wins in the NWA, most notably teaming with Sal Rinauro. He's a decent competitor with solid mat wrestling.

... He lasts one minute against JR Kratos.
The muscular God of War runs towards him, grabs him, smashes him in a corner, hits hit two time with a shoulder block in the ribs, then finishes him off with a running powerslam for a three count.

WINNER: JR KRATOS

JR Kratos is standing in the middle of the ring, with the referee being afraid to come near him and lift his hand up in the air. That's when up-beat music is heard in the arena, and here comes NWA Television Champion Anthony Bennett, who comes to the stand near the entrance.

"JR Kratos!... Your match was really good, and imma let you finish, but erm... LAST WEEK, you jumped me from behind. That's not cool at all, but hey, I've got this sweet piece of gold, so I know I have a target on my back. It's ok, It's making me grow up as a competitor AND a man... So you know how it goes, right? NEXT WEEK... SUPER POWERRR... You and me, big guy, for my SIXTH Title defense... Let's get it on, big man."

__________

Following video vignette is taking place at... A border control? The quality of the footage and the format let us see that it's a video taken from a smartphone from a selfie point of view.

"Is it on? Right, wonderful!... This is a message for the NWA AND BRIAN MILONAS! I'm at the border between Mongrovia and... Well you know what's next to Mongrovia, right?... Guess what, since that out-of-shape, fat loser of Brian Milonas STOLE MY PROPERTY... MY Mongrovian Karate Third Degree Black Belt... I'M NOT ALLOWED IN MONGROVIA ANYMORE!... THIS IS A CATASTROPHE! THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? I KNOW PEOPLE!...

Well... Okay. So, my sensei Question Mark doesn't answer my calls, I think he's in the Mongrovian House of Healing after this big dummy Milonas INJURED HIS RIBS... Can you believe it? What kind of a round-shaped man with no neck would STEAL A BLACK BELT, and INJURE SOMEBODY'S RIBS?!

So, I've had enough. Brian Milonas, you falsly claim that I owe you 10 000$. I've watched a lot of wrestling, even though I'm not a fan of that primitive style of fighting contest, so I know how this goes... You want 10 000$ from me, I want my Black Belt back. So I've called Billy Corgan... I've pulled some strings, because I'm a WORLDWIDE FAMOUS ACTOR. Next week, on NWA Super Powerrr, we will fight, a mano-a-mano contest. If I win... You're contractually forced to give me back my black belt, AND an apology... And if you win, you will get those 10 000 dollars. Okay? Good.

Now, i've got to find a plane back in the States. This place REEKS!"

2. The Pope & Marti Belle vs. Sal Rinauro & Maria Kanellis

Marti Belle is wearing matching wrestling gear with The Pope, with his Congregation's colours on it. Pope's recruiting seems to have been fruitful for Marti Belle, since she begins the match hot with a strong advantage over Maria. She's more intense and fierce than ever, and she looks good in the early beginnings of the match.

Sal then gets tagged in, and The Pope comes out. Dinero doesn't seem to take little Sal very seriously, as he taunts him and wants him... And gives him his lawyer Famous B's card "it might be helpful with your obsessive stalking". Sal gets mad and fights with everything he has, punching kicking and headbutting Pope until he backs off in his own corner. Once the surprise is passed, Pope realizes he's much stronger than his opponent and pushes him back. Rinauro rolls on his back and comes back for more... PIMSLAP! Pope pimslapped him! Sal goes down and Pope has a pin for a two count.

Match continues, and it's more a competitive showcase between the women, while Pope and Rinauro occasionally fight but with a more comedic aspect, as Pope makes fun of Rinauro and taggs Marti Belle as often as possible for make her shine. He only tags in when she needs to catch her breath. In a fun moment, she tags him in, out of breath, he puts Rinauro down and puts him in a figure four leglock! He can clinch on the move, but when he sees Marti is doing better, he just let go off the hold and taggs her in.

In the end, Marti Belle puts Maria out with Pope's own DDE: a running and jumping double knee strike in the back when Maria's in the corner! She gets that elusive pinfall victory that she's been after for so long.

WINNERS: THE POPE & MARTI BELLE

As Pope acclaim Marti on their way back, Joe Galli reminds us of the events that took place between him and Trevor Murdock on NWA Powerrr Surge. In the ring, Sal is checking on Maria, who seems upset at the loss. He extends his arms... And offers her a "friendly" comforting hug!

Maria looks at him... And asks for a microphone.

"Listen Sal... We're cool okay? I really appreciate your support and the fact that you are my number 1 fan. You've been of great help here and in my personal life with your support... I guess we're friends, alright?"

Sal has a HUGE smile on his face and asks for a "friend hug." But Maria goes on.

"But this... You... You're too much!... I'm not gonna hug you, and I'm sorry if that hurts you... But my marriage is what's most important to me. It's obvious my husband Mike doesn't like you and I being close, let alone being friends. So no hugs. No physical contact. No more phone calls after work hours... Okay? She loves her husband. Mike Bennett is the love of her life, and she feels guilty for making him feel so bad over the last few weeks..."

Maria turns to the camera.

"I Love You, Mike. I'm sorry for being a little self-centered over the last weeks... And months. I love being adored. I love having fans. Being back in wrestling by your side felt great... But that was about you, and I made it all about me. I'm sorry. I love you."

Maria leaves, as Sal is dumbfounded and really, really sad.

__________

The Briscoe Brothers are here! Jay and Mark come out and go RIGHT to the announcing team. Mark walks back and forth behind Joe Galli and David Marquez, and Jay takes a headset. He tells them he wants to join the team! They will be looking reaaaally hard at that Main Event. Jay swears that if Nick Aldis gets anywhere near this ring in order to help his buddies, he's a DEAD MAN. Galli tells him that it's just been announced that he will get his title match against Nick Aldis on Night 2 of the NWA Pop Up Event next month! Jay: "'bout damn time."

3. NWA World Tag Team Championship Match: Strictly Busines © (/w. Kamille) vs. Occam's Razor (/w. Paul Ellering)

Since debuting in the NWA, Occam's Razor have torn down the competition, retire the Rock N' Roll Express, and wage war on Strictly Business to conquer what they feel is rightfully theirs: the NWA World Tag Team Championship. Led by Paul Ellering, they begin the match on total fire, hitting double moves on "Wildcard" Thom Latimer.

The turning point is that Latimer finally taggs in Doug Williams. Williams might look to be the weak link in this match: he's of smaller stature than the three other wrestlers, he's significantly older... But what he lacks in size and youth, he more than makes up for in veteran cunning and experience. Williams doges Gzim's offense and goes to his opponent's corner. He taunts Gzim, who runs at him... And Williams dodges, leading to Gzim Selmani colliding in his own partner on the apron! Dhinsa falls down from the apron but stay on his feet, while Williams shoulder tackles Selmani's leg and takes him down.

What follows is 5 minutes of sickening Strictly Business domination. During those 5 minutes, Selmani NEVER gets back up. Latimer & Williams do quick tag, they double team him, they hit him on the ground and prevent him from either going to tag his partner or geting back up. The two smug britishmen take a vile pleasure in stomping him down, targeting his notirously previously injured right biceps. It's an agony for the gigantic Selmani, while Latimer laughs like a total maniac.

Salvation comes in the form of Paul Ellering, who gets up on the apron to galvanize his protege. Of course, Williams gets in his face, but the ref is distracted. This allows Dhinsa to hit the ring and put Latimer down with a running shoulder tackle. Dhinsa gets back to his corner, Ellering gets back down, and Selmani can crawl to his corner... And tags in!

Former judo silver medaillist Sunny Dhinsa hits the ring. He throws Latimer around like he weights nothing and anihilates him with judo throws and powermoves of rare brutality. This gets Latimer's wife Kamille angry, and she gets in Paul Ellering's face down the ring. The two exchange harsh words, and Selmani, holding his damaged bicep, gets in between. Kamille is a Brickhouse, and is looking Selmani right in the eyes. In the ring, Dhinsa is putting Latimer in a camel clutch, things are looking bleak for the champions.

That's where the evil genius of Doug Williams strikes. He goes out of the ring and talk to Kamille. The two exchange whispers as Selmani and Ellering look on. In the ring, Latimer is suffering in agony and might be able to tap... That's when Kamille gets angry. She and Doug Williams start arguing. That distracts the referee and... KAMILLE JUST SLAPPED DOUG WILLIAMS! WHAT THE HELL?

WINNERS BY DISQUALIFICATION: OCCAM'S RAZOR

It's total nonsense.

In the ring, Sunny Dhinsa thinks that Latimer has tap out and he won fair and square. He gets his hand held up, but gets furious when he hears that they won by disqualification and that Sitrctly Business are still champions. Paul Ellering is trying to understand, and it's easy to guess, because Kamille and Doug Williams are not arguing anymore. They are smiling with all their teeth, it was a ruse! It was a travesty! Doug Williams told Kamille to simulate an argument and hit him in order to lost by DQ and still keep the gold!

Gzim gets angry, he throws Doug Williams into the ring. But like Liverpool fans, members of Strictly Business never walk alone.

NWA World Champion Nick Aldis is the first one out, encouraging Mike Bennett to follow him, as the former Prodigy is obviously dragging his feet. After all, last time they were in this type of brawl, he was left all alone and took 3 finishers, being beaten down by Occam's Razor and Jay Briscoe.

Aldis & Bennett hit the ring. With Williams and a semi-conscious Latimer, they gang up on Selmani & Dhinsa. But as they promised, the Briscoes are coming down the announcing desk and into the ring.

It's an all out brawl! A 4 on 4 affair starts, with Latimer & Williams continuing their match with Occam's Razor, while Bennett is brawling with Mark Briscoe, and Aldis & Jay Briscoe are giving us a little preview of their March 14th title match! It's total pandemonium, an all out war, and that's when a surprising but fitting figure comes out.

It's Billy Corgan! And the NWA President of the Board has a microphone!

"STOP THIS! STOP THIS!

THIS IS TOTAL NONSENSE!

THIS ISN'T THE NWA! THIS IS A MESS!

Tonight, you disgraced the integrity of the world's most prestigious tag team wrestling title in the world!

Week after week, you sabotage MY program with your brawls!

I could ban you all. I could forbid you to have physical contact... But i'm a businessman first. So next week, it's only fitting that the special Super Powerr Episode would be Main Evented by a SUPER Match... As Strictly Business will face The Briscoe Brothers AND Occam's Razor in a 4 on 4 match! If we were in the 80s, this would be inside two steel cages, but you know we don't have the rights, so you'll settle this like men NEXT WEEK!"

A plumber... We also see the crazed maniacs of the Temple, from the apparently flesh-eating Marty the Moth and his obession with ring announcer Shaul Guerrero, the serial killer on the run LuFisto who's coming to the Temple with her doll ; Trios Champions The Rabbit Tribe, and so much more... The video ends with an earlier meeting between Aerostar and Dario Cueto, where the time traveler explained Dario that they were in a sort of alternate reality that diverged from theirs sometimes during the previous seasons.

And of course, it's a total hoss fight. Earth shakes and the believers shiver as the two behemoths go all out. Of course, Muertes is still a little injured after the total war he had last week with Crane, so this offers Taurus a slight advantage. After the 90 seconds of total fight, it's time for entrant #3. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="99Mfpzg.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/99Mfpzg.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> It's Laredo Kid! The luchador cautiously enters the ring, and comes face to face with Taurus. The Minotaur tries to grab him, but a serie of dropkicks keep him at bay. Meawhile, Muertes is back up and comes behind Taurus with a SPREA! Laredo kid jumps at the occasion and hits him with a goddamn hurracanrana for a 2 count! Muertes gets mad and starts to batter the poor Laredo Kid. He body punches him in the corner ala Undertaker, then hits him with a sidewalk slam. It has already been 90 seconds, and here comes #4. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="H81laQL.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/H81laQL.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> La Hiedra is here! The luchadora flies at her rival Black Taurus, who tried to break her back only for her to be saved by Son Hof Havoc who in turned got his back broken... Last week, La Hiedra saved Facade from the same fate. She flies at Taurus with a springboard hurracanrana... But Taurus gets a hold on her and doesn't go down, instead hitting her with a powerbomb onto a standing Mil Muertes! Muertes goes down but gets back up. We get another intense staredown between the two monsters... And Muertes picks La Hiedra back up... Powerbomb! He powerbombed her right at the feet of Taurus, as a challenge to him! La Hiedra rolls out of the ring, and the monsters get closer and closer, face to face. That's when the drum rolls start to beat... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="7Mu5Wg5.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/7Mu5Wg5.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Number 5 is Zicky Dice! He runs down the stairs like a total tool, screaming "OUTLANDIIIIISH!" He runs around the ring while the two monsters don't even look at him. He finally get in the ring and approaches Taurus and Muertes from the side. He... Taunts them? Is he mad? Of course, the provocation is quickly answered, as Mil Muertes turns around and hits him with his Flatliner. He then motions towards Black Taurus as a way to tell him "show me what you got". Taurus picks up an already inanimated Dice, and hits a sit-out powerbomb for a three count. Zicky Dice has been eliminated. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="g7fYL2i.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/g7fYL2i.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> The tides might be turning, because #6 si Mil's disciple Obaryion! He runs to the ring and jumps at Taurus. The Minotaur is midly annoyed by him and clubbers him, but it gives Mil enough time to hit him with a spear. Meanwhile, outside of the ring, Laredo Kid and La Hiedra seem to have made a pact. They both get back to the ring. Laredo Kid hits Muertes with a running dropkick to the knee. The God of Death is down on a knee, and La Hiedra runs at him with a shining wizard. Laredo Kid then attempts a springboard 450°, but Obaryion jumps onto his master's body to protect him! Both get hit, but Laredo might be facing a 2 on 1 situation because La Hiedra spotted Taurus on the outside and hit him with a Tope Con Hilo! The Beast goes down! <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="z1oZVUA.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/z1oZVUA.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> #7 is Facade! Instead of running down the stairs, he instead goes into the crowd, just above La Hiedra and Taurus... Jumping crossbody onto Taurus! La Hiedra and Facade fist bump and go to war on the beast that injured Son Of Havoc. In the ring, Laredo Kid is fighting off Obaryion while Mil's recuperating, letting his minion do the dirty work. Laredo hits a beautiful Pelé kick on Obaryion that sends him down, but when he gets up he crosses eyes with Mil Muertes who runs at him with yet another spear... And Laredo leapfrogs him! Mil goes right into the turbuckle post! Laredo Kid hesitates a second, but choses to finish off Obaryion with a standing moonsault, and then immediately a standing shooting star press for a three count! Obaryion has been eliminated. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="hNdgbHF.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/hNdgbHF.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> #8 is Nelson Erazo aka Homicide! 'Cide is coming out with a fork reminiscent of one Abdullah the Butch. He runs down the stairs and slide into the ring... Fork shot to the forehead of Laredo Kid!... And one for Mil Muertes!... WHO NO SELLS IT! Homicide looks at him, then his fork... Then decide f**k it, and stabs Mil's forehead four time like a maniac! This time, Muertes stumbles, and 'Cide hits the rope for a lariat. Meanwhile, outisde of the ring, La Hiedra and Facade are teaming up against Black Taurus. They seem to match him 2 for 1, which is a crazy thought. They hit him with quick kicks and make him back up to the bottom of the stairs. That's when the drum rolls hit again... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="B6NQJSS.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/B6NQJSS.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Number 9 is Black Lotus! She comes running down the stairs and jumps off of it to hit a double foot stomp on the top of Black Taurus's head! Dios mios! Taurus is now on his knees, and La Hiedra & Facade hit him with a double superkick... He's still on his knees, so they decide on a second stereo superkick... But Taurus, although stumbling, is getting back up... The monster is about to regain his senses, but from the ring comes flying Laredo Kid with a crossbody that takes EVERYBODY DOWN! Outside of the ring, five people are down, but in the ring Homicide is facing the wrath of Mil Muertes. The God of Death has him trapped in the ropes and boxes him like he wants to punch him to death. That's when #10 enters, we're halfway through the match... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="7uJDzec.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/7uJDzec.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> "From el Inframundoooo... DRAGOOOO!" The Dragon comes out, and he has nunchuks with him! He slides into the ring and hits Mil Muertes with a serie of nunchuks shots. Muertes goes down and rolls outside of the ring, leaving Drago all alone, posing with the nunchuks. Meanwhile, outisde of the ring, La Hiedra and Facade drag Taurus under the bottom rope. They want to end the monster. They each get to a turnbuckle, ready to hit a move, but Taurus is already getting back up!... That's when Homicide hits him with a lariat. Taurus stumbles, and Drago hits him with his nunchuks on the top of the head. He gets down on one knee, and La Hiedra comes flying... Missile dropkick! Now he's down! And Facade goes for a Swanton Bomb! Facade & La Hiedra both get on top of Taurus for the pin. One, two,... Black Taurus has been eliminated! They did it! But just as one monster is out, another comes out. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="ZOAsBmN.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ZOAsBmN.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> #11 is LuFisto! She slowly gets down the stairs with her disgusting looking doll near her ear, like he was talking to her. LuFisto puts her doll on one of the stair's step and goes ringside, where Laredo Kid and Black Lotus are. LuFisto candidly asks Laredo Kid "do you wanna play?" Then HEADBUTTS him down! She turns to Black Lotus and also headbutts her down before getting in the ring. In the ring, Homicide grabbed the nunchuks out of Drago's hands and is fighting with him. LuFisto faces La Hiedra & Facade. They go for a stero superkick, but she let herself go down on her knees to dodge. She gets back up and hit them with a double clothesline, they go down! LuFisto notices Mil Muertes outside of the ring, on the other side from where she made her entrance, and it seems like there's something between The God of Death and the psychopath, like two weirdos recognizing each others. But that's when #12 comes out. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="8zKGQ1m.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/8zKGQ1m.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> #12 is a luchador making his debut to the Temple, which Vampiro tells us is Bill Carr! The man is a total sleaze ball, with aviator glasses on his face, believing he's acting in Top Gun or something. He smiles a lot, gets down the stairs... And notices LuFisto's doll. He picks it up and makes fun of it. He gets into the ring, slowly, and faces LuFisto. "Is that yours?" he asks... LuFisto kicks him, hits him with a Death Valley Bomb, and pins him. Bill Carr had been eliminated. Meawhile, Facade & La Hiedra are fighting the impromptu alliance of Black Lotus and Laredo Kid outside of the ring. They hit each other with moves, Laredo facing La Hiedra and Black Lotus facing Facade. That's when Facade hits Laredo with a superkick. Black Lotus dodges a superkick from la Hiedra, and hits her with her Wheelbarrow Dragon Suplex! Facade tries another superkick, but Black Lotus dodges and throws him into the ring. In the ring, Facade comes at the feet of LuFisto, who's still absorbed by staring at Mil Muertes. Facade's getting up gets her out of her blurr, she picks him up, and a Death Valley Bomb puts the Neon-Ninja away. Facade has been eliminated. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="OWkpjpz.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OWkpjpz.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Lucky #13 is El Dragon Azteca Jr! Of course, down the stairs is Black Lotus, with whom he has a strange dynamic going on. She killed his master, claiming HE kiled her innocent parents. Azteca Jr. doesn't know is he believes her, so he wants to fight. He approaches her, but Black Lotus backs off. She doesn't want to fight him! El Dragon Azteca wants to chase her, but Drago & Homicide are brawling near him, and gets entangled in the brawl! In the ring, Mil Muertes slowly made his way to LuFisto. The two death machine stare at each other. LuFisto begins to laugh like a maniac "she told me about you!" she says... If she speaking about the doll? As Drago, 'Cide & Azteca brawl outside of the ring, La Hiedra found herself chasing after Black Lotus. Meawhile, Laredo Kid, who's still in the running after being #3, gets in the ring, inbetween LuFisto & Mil Muertes' staredown. He shouts at them "I'M NOT AFRAID"... And go after them both! The fire in this kid! The cojones[/b]! He hits them with everything he had, and they move back!... For a moment. After the shock and surprise of the attack, Muertes gets his head together and hits Laredo in the gut. LuFisto then grabs him by his mask and plants him with a Facebuster. That's when #14 enters. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="oXH0kyF.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/oXH0kyF.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> 14 is The Mack! Mack runs down the stairs and join the melee ringside. He and former championship partner Homicide get the batter of Azteca Jr & Drago. There's a brief floating moment when they look at each other... But Mack offers a fist bump, and 'Cide nods at him when fist bumps him. They get in the ring and we get a face off with LuFisto & Muertes... They jump at each other! Muertes fights Mack while LuFisto brawls with Homicide! Ringside, a tired La Hiedra is no match for the Black Lotus, who has her down. Elsewhere, Drago and El Dragon Azteca Jr. are down, and Laredo Kid has rolled out of the ring and is near his friend Drago. In the ring, the monstruous brawl results in Mack hitting a Spinebuster on Muertes, while Homicide is shoulder blocking LuFisto in the corner. Mack is all alone in the ring atop of Muertes, he shakes his arms... HE THROWS HIS ELBOW PAD OFF! HE'S GOING FOR IT! HE'S GOING FOR THE PEOPLE'S ELBOW! He runs to the rope, then to the other side of the ring... SPRINGBOARD HURRACANRANA! OUT OF NOWHERE CAME LAREDO KID! AND HE PINS THE MACK! ONE, TWO, AND THREE! Willie Mack has been eliminated. As we get a replay of the HUGE move from Laredo Kid, we see that Homicide could have helped Willie Mack and break the pin... But didn't. Instead, he waits for the pin to be made, and goes at Laredo Kid. He's going to hit the Gringo Killer, he as Laredo up... But LuFisto comes at him with a lariat! Homicide falls backwards, and Laredo Kid is back on his feet... HE hits the Gringo Killer on Homicide! He pins him! Homicide has been eliminated. In a swift moment, Laredo Kid has eliminated two third of the former Trios Champions! Speaking of Trios Champions, here comes #15... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="TpgtrRl.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TpgtrRl.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> It's the Whitte Rabbit, Brian Kendrick! And he's coming out on the shoulders of fellow tribe members Mala Suerte & Saltador! In the ring, Black Lotus has dragged La Hiedra in. She locks eyes with LuFisto, and wisely backs off and outside of the ring. LuFisto picks La Hiedra up, Death Valley Bomb! La Hiedra has been eliminated. The field is narrowing! Outside of the ring we got Black Lotus. On another side, Drago, El Dragon Azteca & Laredo Kid. In the ring, Mil Muertes and LuFisto are still dominating. Meanwhile, Brian Kendrick is... Staying on top of the stairs? Taping his head with his index finger, he's believing he's so smart... And he might be, because he and his two followers are in perfect position to ambush next entrant! And that's when sh*t hits the fence. Mil Muertes turns to LuFisto and points to the doll. They exchange harsh words that we don't quite understand, Mil Muertes speaking in Spanish and LuFisto in french. That's when Drago, Azteca & Laredo Kid decide to team up! They storm the ring, with Drago hitting a springboard missile dropkick on LuFisto to kick her out of the ring. Azteca jumps at Mil with a springboard crossbody... But Mil catches him! It's up to Laredo Kid to deliver a springboard dropkick on the back of Azteca, who falls on top of Mil. Kid & Azteca attempt a double pinfall on Mil... But he kicks out! He gets up, bu Drago low kicks him in the calf. Azteca hits him with a jumping knee to the face, Laredo with a superkick... Mil is stumbling, the three masked marvels look at each other... Triple Superkick! The three of them get on top of Mil, ONE... TWO... Mil Muertes has been eliminated. And here comes #16... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="jNPwJQQ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/jNPwJQQ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> "Welcome to Dropville!" Here comes Worldwide Underground Leader PJ Black! But as he comes out on the top of the Temple's stairs, Brian Kendrick and his two followers are waiting for him... They gang up on PJ Black! They beat him down like rabid dogs, and Kendrick motions to his followers to toss him... Down the stairs! PJ falls all the way down, as Kendrick laughs like a maniac, proud of his ambush plan. Down in the ring, LuFisto is staring down the three men who eliminated Mil. Once again, they look at each others... And decide to team up! LuFisto is not as tired as Mil and she puts up a good fight, but the combined assaults of the three luchadores is one hell of a combination! After taking a large amount of attacks, she crawls to her doll which is stil in the ring. She grabs it and puts it near to her ear, like she's listening to her. She then rolls out of the ring... And turns her attention to Black Lotus who was still gaining time! LuFisto is approaching Lotus who readies herself... BUT EL DRAGON AZTECA JR COMES OUT WITH A TOPE CON HILO! He hit LuFisto hard! Azteca slowly rises up and points to LuFisto "you're MY opponent!" Lotus still doesn't want to fight him, so she gets in the ring. Azteca follows her, he goes for a forearm shot, but she dodges... And Azteca hits Laredo Kid instead! They argue, and it's ON! Laredo Kid and Dragon Azteca Jr. get in a brawl. Meanwhile, we here the lucha drumrolls... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="mkP5ZyX.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/mkP5ZyX.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> #17 is Marty "the Moth" Martinez. Is he gonna fall in the Rabbit Tribe's trap?... Uh-uh, he comes with a chair in hand! Marty decks Saltador, then Mala Suerte, and the headshots put them down for good. Kendrick is panicked, he escaped down the stairs, jumps over the poor PJ Black, and slides... Under the ring? Marty gets down the stairs, grabs PJ on the road, throws him into the ring... AND MAULS EVERYBODY WITH A CHAIR! A chairshot for Azteca, one for Laredo Kid, one for Black Lotus, and one for Drago. CHAIRSHOT CITY! Marty then picks PJ Black up and hits his Butterfly Suplex for a three count. PJ Black has been eliminated. He then turns to Black Lotus and licks his lips like a predator about to enjoy a meal. He picks her up... Butterfly Suplex... You know the rest. Black Lotus has been eliminated. Marty isn't done yet. He crawls over Lotus and clench his jaw. He's got... Drool dripping down his mouth?? It's disgusting! What is he about to do? We may never know, because that's where ring-announcer Shaul Guerrero interferes! <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="vzgjQBg.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/vzgjQBg.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Shaul, who has been stalked by Marty over the last weeks, comes to the ring, picks up the chair... And hit Marty on the back with it! Marty is hurt and annoyed, he gets back up, looks at Shaul... And laughs like a maniac, because of course. But Shaul is not giving in anymore, she hits him with the chair on the head, and Marty falls down! That's when Drago comes back to his sense, he goes to the top drope, points to Shaul Guerrero, points to the sky... FROG SPLASH ON MARTY THE MOTH! Marty "the Moth" Martinez has been eliminated. And here comes the drums for #18... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="oHPIrLQ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/oHPIrLQ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Her's Ophidian! From the top of the stairs, he points at former Tribe fellow Drago, then runs to the ring and slides under the bottom rope. The two men face off... But Ophidian doesn't go for a fight. He joins his hands together and start to... Undulate from left to right? He speaks a mysterious tongue, and it seems to confuse Drago, who gets dizzy... Is he getting hypnosed?... It seems so!... But Laredo Kid and Azteca are back up. They're confused by what is happening... And Azteca decides to hit a bicycle kick on Ophidian. He goes down, and it seems to break the spell, Drago comes back to himself! Meanwhile, Brian Kendrick gets out from under the ring. In the ring, Laredo Kid checks on Drago... Who pushes him back! What's happening? Laredo Kid speaks to him, and Drago finally seems to come back to his senses... But that's when Brian Kendrick comes from behind. He pushes Laredo outside of the ring and jumps on Drago's dizziness to roll him up! Drago has been eliminated. What a snake is this rabbit! Kendrick taps his right temple with his index and smiles, proud of him. He outsmarted the field! Speaking of the field, it's narrowing even further... <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="tc7poLz.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tc7poLz.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> #19 is Puma King! As he enters, Laredo Kid, El Dragon Azteca, Brian Kendrick and Ophidian are still in the running. Puma King enters the ring and vows the crowd with surprising agile moves. The feline master gets Laredo with a flying headscissors, delivers a serie of armbar to Azteca, hits a superb springboard tornado DDT on Kendrick, and as Ophidian slythers out of the ring, Puma King poses for the fans. He already conquered their heart after a brillant encounter with Lucha Underground Champion. Speaking of him, 90seconds passed during that aerial feline assaults, and here comes #20. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="Mv13AVq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Mv13AVq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Lucha Underground Champion Ethan Cueto the Third who comes out accompanied by Dario Cueto who, like always, is the one wearing the belt. EC3 gets into the ring and recreate the magic he had with Puma King two weeks ago. They deliver a brief but intense match inside the match, that ends when Cueto hits a pumphandle powerslam on King. Ophidian gets up and does with Cueto as he has with Drago... But EC3 doesn't seem to be that affected by the hypnosis. Instead, he MAULS the small statured Ophidian with a big boot, picks him up and hits an electric chair drop for a three count. Ophidian has been eliminated. He then turns to El Dragon Azteca Jr., and this aztec warrior is not doing out without a fight! He hits move after move and Cueto, but the champ doesn't seem really affected. He grabs Azteca mid-air, puts him on his shoulders, and bits a Wrath of the Gods (Fireman's Carry Cutter) El Dragon Azteca Jr has been eliminated. Kendrick, Puma King, Laredo Kid, EC3. One of these luchadores will walk out with the Lucha Underground Championship, that's fore sure. As the four men are each in a corner, Dario laughs from outside of the ring "this isn't a royal scramble, FIGHT!" EC3 obeys and gets to Puma King. As they fight, Kendrick hits a low blow on Laredo Kid and rolls him up. One, two... KICK OUT! Kendrick picks up the chair that was used by Marty, he tries to hit a down Laredo Kid, but the Kid puts his foot back up and the chair hits Kendrick in the face! Laredo is quick to process: he kip-up and hits a superkick to Kendrick, followed by a standing shooting star press... Brian Kendrick has been eliminated. At this stage of the match and with such a formidable foe, Laredo Kid decide to team up with Puma King. They fight the monster, but the demi-god that is EC3 is a match for the two of them, and it's a fair fight! Wanting to end things quick, and perhaps doubting his baby brother can do the job, that's when Dario Cueto goes to the music group that was performing tonight and... He steals one of the cymbal from the drums! Dario slides it into the ring for his brother, and EC3 is quick to oblige: BANG! Cymbal shot to Laredo Kid, who goes down, and BANG! One to Puma King!... But the King of the Feline Tribe stumbles. EC3 tries another shot but King gets under it, runs to the rope, springboard... CUTTER IN MID-AIR! EC3 HIT A CUTTER IN MID-AIR! Puma King has his head planted and his body in a vertical position for a second, then gets pinned. Puma King has been eliminated. Laredo Kid has made a huge match. He eliminated 3 luchadores, enters at #3 and he's in the final two. But of course, he's no match with a fresch EC3. The champion picks him up by his mask and spits at him, utterly disrespecting him. He applies a headlock, about to hit his One Percenter... But Laredo Kid rolls back, dragging the champ with him, ROLL UP! ROLL UP! ONE TWO THR HE KICKED OUT! Laredo Kid nearly stole the Lucha Underground Championship! The crowd goes nuts for him, but EC3 is pissed. He beings to tear his mask ("the ultimate act of disrespect for a Luchador" reminds Matt Striker) and hits him with another cymbal shot. Blood is dripping from Laredo Kid's busted open forehead. But in one last act of defiance, he flips the bird to EC3, giving him his middle finders! EC3 picks up Laredo Kid and is about to hit a powerbomb... But Laredo Kid reverses into a hurracanrana! He holds on! ONE TW... EC3 BRUTALLY KICKED OUT! Laredo Kid is done for, he has no more energy, and EC3 picks him up for a brutal One Percenter. He's furious, but he won.

January 3, 2021

Maaan that's rough!

Sometimes the game just kicks you in the balls on doesn't stop when you're down

Have you maybe considered sticking on 2 ppvs a month and no TV Show to get some cash? That seriously modify how you have to book your stories and may hinder your pop growth, but I recall it saved me quite a few times doing ECW Diaries back on tew2016

January 2, 2021

That's purely awesome buddy!

Really intrigued by what is the deal with Famous B, Mack & SOH (loved that we FINALLY had an explanation for the lazy Son Of Madness story)

Jeremiah looks like he will rebel and I can't wait for him to collect snake heads

Will Vampiro be able to resurrect Matanza? Where are the Gods? So many questions!

January 1, 2021

And it's ooooon!

Eager to see what you will do with that buddy, count me as a Believer

How did Thea Trinidad survive that Spanish Fly spot from Mack? Love the stories. Are Heidra and Facade meant to be the Angelico and Ivelisse of this alternative reality? Could see them challenging for the Trios titles after they're done with Taurus

A bad ass chick and a crazy high flyer wraring neon colors?

Well it's true that i've already been more subtle

But will Son Of Havoc return from that broken.back??

SEASON 5 EPISODE 5

As always, show opens with a video recap of previous episodes. This one focuses on the rich history that led to the Main Event: a Grave Consequences Match between Mil Muertes and Jeremiah Crane. Both men will be looking to lock their opponent inside a casket and put him away... Forever.

Following scene takes place in a dark litted locker room, where the two protagonists are seated next to each other. A short writing tells us the scene took place last week after the show.

The Mack: Listen, Nelson. I really liked those Trios Championship. I know we were a makeshift team made up by Cueto, but we geled and we became champs! Cueto told me we can have our rematch if we find another partner... Sooooo you in?
Homicide: Listen esse, I came to the Temple to end the war between my Cartél and the Guerrero's Family. Now, it's done... But hey, I like that place. I like that place a lot. I guess my primos can take care of the business while I get some fun here.
The Mack: Yeah man, it's all about fun! Beating people up, blood, sweat, guts... The Mack LOVES that too!
Homicide: But what about the third man?
The Mack: WHO'S THE THIRD MAN, BROTHER?!... Hahaha!
Homicide: ...
The Mack: Well The Mack says, let's pick whichever jabroni walks out that door first, right?
Homicide: You know we ain't in a movie, right hermano[/b]? We could be waiting here for hours!
The Mack: The Mack... Didn't think about that. Well let's give it a try, alright? I got a good feeling 'bout this.

....

???: Hey guys... Do you know where the toilets are?
The Mack: Told ya', Cide! Hey man, are you by any chance a luchador?
???: Uh... No... I'm the plumber, I was called for a water leak.
Homicide: Madre de dios.
The Mack: But... You know wrestling right?
???: Wrestling?... Yeah, of course! I'm a huge fan of The Rock!
The Mack: The Mack has never heard of that Stone-man. Anyway, drop your tools, thanks to the sacred rule of "whoever walks in first", you're now part of the next Trios Champions!
???: Trios?... Well... Ok I guess?
The Mack: What's your name, brother?
???: I'm Luke... Luke Calhoun, Plumber from father to son since 1979.
The Mack: IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOUR... Just kiddin' bruh, haha!... Hey, this is our partner, Nelson. You can call him 'Cide.
Homicide: Dios mios...

Lucha Underground Trios Championship Match
The Rabbit Tribe © vs. The Mack, Homicide & Luke Calhoun
The Rabbit Tribe is as demetend as ever. Saltador jumps everywhere, sometimes diving between the ropes without aiming at someone and without even being the legal man. Mala Suerte can be found doing cartwheel, and Brian Kendrick can't help himself but laughing like a manic unexcpetedly. That doesn't stop the Tribe from being one hell of a trio, and Kendrick with his flips and dirty brawling combination make for a formidable foe.
Luke Calhoun sometimes seem a little taken aback by these shenanigans, but makes for a surprisingly good brawler. Mack and Homicide are great luchadores and complete this team.
But they lack teamwork, and a miscommunication causes Calhoun to unadvertantly hit Homicide with a lariat. Kendrick jumps at the occasion and hits his Down the Rabbit Hole (Sliced Bread #2) on Homicide for the win.
WINNER AND STILL LUCHA UNDERGROUND TRIOS CHAMPIONS: THE RABBIT TRIBE

Post match, Calhoun checks on Homicide and apologizes for hitting him. But the furious mob leader that is Nelson Erazo is not the forgiving kind. He kicks Luke Calhoun in the balls and goes out of the ring to take a steel chair! He's about to hit a kneeled Calhoun, but The Mack gets in between, his hand in front of him, asking 'Cide to not hit him. In the end, Homicide spits on the ground and leave, while Mack shouts at him that "we're a team, damnit!"

"Yo soy El Dragon Azteca Jr. I was raised in the respect of the ancient traditions. I'm the heir of the Eagle Tribe, who named me the bearer of the torch. I was trained by El Dragon Azteca in honour and respect.

Last week, my dreaded rival, the woman I swore to KILL, Black Lotus, came to my rescue. I didn't ask her to. I didn't know what she was doing there. She knows I want to kill her in revenge for my maestro. But she didn't put a finger on me while I was down. I respect that, although I don't understand it.

But then, she talked to me. She whispered to my ear. You know what she told me? She told me that she killed my master, because HE killed her parents, and that they were innocents.

Why would the most honorable man I ever knew, MY MASTER, kill two innocent people? Either she's lying, either my master wasn't the man I thought... But how couldn't he be?... But why would she lie, when she could have taken my life right there in the ring?

I don't know what to think, and I don't know what to believe.

But I know how to test a person's value. If I want to know if Black Lotus is honourable and telling the truth, I have to face her.

So consider this a challenge, Black Lotus.

You, me, the Lucha Underground Temple...

Let's fight, and we'll think later."

Facade vs. Black Taurus
This match has a lot of bad feelings, after Black Taurus broke Facade's friend Son Of Havoc's back, after they saved La Hiedra from the dreaded Minotaur.
It's a total clash of style, as the pure strength of Taurus faces the crazy risk-taking almost suicidal aerial style of the neon-wearing ninja Facade.
The back and forth progressively grows in favour of Taurus, and he catches a springboard hurracanrana attempts into a powerbomb onto the turnbuckle for the win.
WINNER: BLACK TAURUS

The match is over, but it's clear what Black Taurus has in mind. He picks Facade back up and grabs him by his throat. He's about to hit him with the same Chokebreaker that he used to break Son Of Havoc's back. But once again, here comes the cavalry!

La Hiedra, who almost was Taurus' first victim in the Temple, comes out with a springboard dropkick to the back of Taurus. He stumbles and let go of Facade. The high-flyer is quick to escape the ring and get away with La Hiedra in front of the fury of the Man Beast who let go an unhuman scream in anger.

Catrina: My love... I don't want to lose you.
Jeremiah: You won't. Tonight, I kill Mil Muertes.
Catrina: Be careful, you know how powerful he is.
Jeremiah: You're doubting me?
Catrina: Of course not... But I'm afraid.
Jeremiah: Once he's dead, I'll win the Lucha Underground Championship. I'll also take back the Gauntler of the Gods that the Cuetos stole...

"Don't interfere in Grave Consequences... This is Death's territory. This is MY territory. And my quarrel. I will put Jeremiah Crane to the grave. And then, I will claim my Queen. Catrina will be mine, and we will reign over hell together."

Grave Consequence: Mil Muertes vs. Jeremiah Crane /w. Catrina
What can we say about a match where the luchadores literally put their lives on the line?
It's a hatred, brutal fight between two men who want to kill each others. They hit each other with grueling shots and moves, and a steel chair quickly gets involved when Jeremiah asks Catrina to send him one.
As the match goes on, Jeremiah's forehead gets wide open by a chairshot, and he wears a crimson mask. In an adrenaline and madness fueled move, Crane actually takes the blood on his fingers and licks it with a crazy smile.
Mil also bleed from under his mask, which gets partially torn by Crane's hands.
The casket gets drag into the ring by Crane, who hits a front suplex on Mil onto it. The two men try to lock their opponent inside the casket, but none of them relinquish the match... And his life.
But the damages are done in this crazy 15 minutes car crash of a match. Crane attempts his Death Kick that would make Muertes fall into the casket... but Muertes grabs his foot and hits a goddamn leg-trapped Flatliner onto the casket! He rolls Crane inside the wooden death vessel and slam the door shut. As Catrina cries and screams in anguish, Mil Muertes is the winner.
WINNER: MIL MUERTES

"Congratulation, Mil Muertes. You won Grave Consequence. As I promised, it earns you a shot at the Lucha Underground Championship and my baby brother EC3 next week. Celebrate all you can, because next week, Dario's Dial of Doom will decide the stipulation of your match!... Hopefully it's not another Grave Consequence, otherwise YOU'll be the one burried alive!"

Quick Show Recap:

A footage of last week shows The Mack convincing Homicide to cash their rematch for the Trios title next week. Homicide says he likes the Temple and will stay in for a little while although his war with the Guerreros are over. Mack is a goof, and that leads to a plumber named Luke Calhoun being picked as their trio partner.
The Rabbit Tribe defeats Calhoun, Homicide & The Mack to defend the Trios Championship due to some Calhoun/Homicide miscommunication.
Post-match, an angry 'Cide attacks Calhoun, but Mack gets in between and asks him to stop, leading to Homicide walking out.
Black Taurus broke Son Of Havoc's back last week. His friend Facade wants to avenge him, so he'll face Taurus next week.
Willie Mack wants another shot at the Trios Championship. Cueto tells him that since former partner Salvador Guerrero hasn't been seen nor will be since losing a Death Match to fellow former partner Homicide, he can have his rematch next week if he finds another partner.
El Dragon Azteca Jr reveals what Black Lotus told him last week: his master killed her parents, two innocent civillians. Azteca doesn't know if he should believe her, but he wants to face her in order to test her and see if she's saying the truth.
Black Taurus beats a revenge-seeking Facade. He tries to break his back post-match like he did with his friend Son Of Havoc, but La Hiedra makes the save.
Jeremiah Crane and Mil Muertes both prepare for their Grave Consequence Match. Catrina is afraid, but Crane swears he won't die tonight. Muertes orders his followers to not interfere.
Mil Muertes defeats Jeremiah Crane in Grave Consequence.
Post match, Dario Cueto confirms that as a result, Muertes will have a shot at the Lucha Underground Championship next week again Ethan Cueto the Third... And Dario's Dial of Doom will decide the stipulation.

SEASON 5 EPISODE 4

As often, show opens with a recap of certain past events. This video package focuses on the winners of the Ancient Aztec Medallions (Marty the Moth and the three members of the Worldwide Underground), the changing of the Lucha Underground Championship on the first show of the season, and last week's meeting between Dario Cueto and Aerostar & Drago.

"Listen, Azteca, I was really clear last week. I told you that I won't give you the match you want with the murderer of your master, Black Lotus, unless you manage to find out WHO is the undercover cop in my Temple. I also told you that if you DIDN'T, I would feed you to Marty the Moth Martinez. El Jefe is a man of his words, okay? So get to the ring, because you're facing the Moth right now... Oh and Azteca?... It will be anything goes... Good luck kid."

El Dragon Azteca Jr. vs. Marty "the Moth" Martinez - Anything Goes
There's no particular bad blood between the two men. There's no quarrel to be settle, no feud to resolve. But Marty the Moth is one scary psychopath. After waving like a madman to ring announcer Shaul Guerrero during the introduction and asking her "how's your uncle" (the poor Salvador Guerrero having lost a death match last week), he jumps at his opponent of the night, and BITE THE SIDE OF HIS THROAT! HE'S GOING FOR THE JUGULAR!
Azteca is the superior wrestler and vows the crowd with some aerial moves, but with small amount of blood dropping from the side of his neck, he faces a different beast. Each time Azteca get the upperhand with some wrestling, Marty gets back with the use of a chair, or by just biting him like a rabid dog.
In the end, Marty wins the match with a butterfly ddt onto a chair.
WINNER: MARTY "THE MOTH" MARTINEZ

Post match, Marty doesn't seem like he's done. Eyeing the semi-unconscious Dragon Azteca Jr., he crawls on the ground like a predator and stalks Azteca like he's his prey. Always with a sick and demented smile on his face, Marty grabs Azteca by the head... He's biting him through his mask! He's biting at his forehead! As the Believers in the Temple chant "you sick f**k", suddenly the lights go out.

...

...

When they come back on, Marty isn't alone in the ring.

It's Black Lotus! She smiles at Marty and wave at him like an innocent little girl, but... She then runs right at him, yakuza kick! Marty is down and he wisely choses to retreat from the ring. What does that mean? Why is Black Lotus saving the disciple of the man who killed her parents?... She looks down at Azteca who can't believe what is happening, and clenches his jaw in anger at the sight of her. Lotus crouches over him and whispers something into his ear. She then left without anything else, as Azteca is left all alone and seemingly dumbfounded.

We get quick package video from Black Taurus breaking Son of Havoc's back last week. It is followed by a pre taped Facade promo.

"Son Of Havoc is my friend. He's the only one I can call a friend in this Temple. He found a little lost puppy on the road and brought him here. Last week, my friend's got injured by Black Taurus after we saved La Hiedra from him. Son Of Havoc is badly wounded, and cannot make it to the Temple until a few fews, maybe months.

Well let me tell you something Taurus. You might be that big bad monster, but I ain't afraid of you. Perseus killed the Minotaur, and I'm gonna slay you and avenge my friend, next week!"

The Mack: Listen boss, The Mack was Trios Champion and He never got His rematch. I want another shot at the three Rabbit freaks.
El Jefe: I don't know if you noticed, but one third of your trios championship team almost murdered the other third in the Temple last week. I'm not sure Salvador Guerrero will be back to the Temple anytime soon.
The Mack: Don't tell the Mack he can't have His rematch, Jefe. I'm the most electrifying superstar in AAAAALL of the Temple! The Mack is money! The believers want to see The Mack!
El Jefe: You sure get a lot of screams from our blood-thirsty believers. And when they're happy, they pay a lot. They drink a lot. And the more they drink, the more they get blood thirsty... I like that.
The Mack: You see? Come on boss, gimme a shot.
El Jefe: Okay, it's done. Next week, you and Homicide get a chance to win back your Trios Championship. Just find a third partner, and it's done.
The Mack: Thank you boss! FINALLY... THE MACK, HAS COME BA...
El Jefe: Yeah yeah ok ok I got it. Now, get out of my office, because you've got a match, RIGHT NOW.

Three Way Dance for an Ancient Aztec Medallion
Thea Trinidad vs. Willie Mack vs. Drago
This match is elimination style. It starts hot with Thea Trinidad going straight at Drago and putting him down with a gut kick and a DDT. She then turns towards Willie Mack and elbows him... But he didn't feel anything. Former Trios Champion The Mack unleashes punches on her, that look eerily similar to The Rock's People Punch.
The match is fast and furious, with alliance making and breaking in the middle of it. First elimination comes when Dragon is on the top rope, about to hit a flying move on Trinidad... But Willie Mack jumps ONTO the turnbuckle and hits a goddamn SPANISH FLY ON DRAGO ONTO THEA TRINIDAD! The crowd goes crazy, and The Mack pins Drago.
He tries to pin Thea immediately, but she grabs him, roll up!
One, two, and three!
WINNER: THEA TRINIDAD

After the match is over, Drago goes out his way to shake the winner's hand, followed by Willie Mack. As Drago exits the ring and makes his way to the back through the smoky corridor entrance, the camera follows him. Drago goes through numerous corridors and up somes stairs. He then opens a door, and finds himself on the roof of the Temple, breathing some fresh air.

Aerostar: These ancient medallions are not your fate my brother.
Drago: And what is my fate, oh traveler of times?
Aerostar: To save the world. Again. As you and I did thousands of years ago, when the Gods ran amongst the tribes and waged war on our ground.
Drago: It was centuries ago. I'm not the young dragon I once was.
Aerostar: You still are the most powerful dragon in the world, respected by your peers.
Drago: My peers are fewer and fewer every decade. Soon, there won't be any dragons, or even representants of the Snake Tribe. Reptiles once rules the earth, but this time is over...

???: It might not be.

Aerostar: Who are you?
Drago: I know you.
Ophidian: I am Ophidian of the sand. I am the great Serpent.
Drago: You're the slytherin snake! Our tribe banned you thousands or years ago! I thought you were dead.
Ophidian: I'm not my dear friend. I survived. You exiled me accros the world, and I found the great sand areas. I prospered. I became a God.
Drago: You're not a God. You're a scum! You're Ophidian the Liar, the teller of stories, the great Plotter!
Ophidian: Accross the world, I became revered. Being a God is about being worshiped my dear. Ohhh, there's so much I can show youn. You shall join me, great Dragon. Together, we could restore our Tribe and rule the world again.
Aerostar: Drago is not interested in your fantasies!
Ophidian: Remember when reptiles rules the earth my friend... If you want that to become true again, join me.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! Let me introduce to you the finest invention in all of the wrestling world. This is... DARIO'S DIAL OF DOOOOOM!

"I will spin this dial to decide the person who will have a shot at the Lucha Underground Championship against MY BABY BROTHER ETHAN CUETO THE THIRD! Which ever name gets picked will come out and face the greatest luchador alive, whose name is CUETO in case you wondered. So without further a due... LET'S SPIN THE DIAL!"

...

...

"Dario's Dial of Doom has made its choice. The UNLUCKY winner is..."

"PUMA KING!"

Lucha Underground Championship Match
Ethan Cueto 3 © vs. Puma King
EC3 has the powers of an ancient Aztec God. He might be Lucha Underground's greatest luchador, with the strength of a bear and the speed of a cheetah. He crushed many luchadores, including Mil Muertes who he won the title from. So this match should be easy picking for him. Right?
If you guessed that, you're dead wrong. The match is far from the one-sided affair it could have been with Puma King having a star-making performance and the two wrestlers gelling really well.
The fantastic looks and surprising agility of Puma King puts the believers in awe and endangers EC3's title reign to the point that even Dario Cueto sometimes seem afraid.
It's a jaw-dropping 14 minutes show stealing match where each luchador is even. But in the end, as Puma King attempts a reverse rana, EC3 muscles up and delivers an eletric chair driver for a nearfall. The kick out angers EC3 who picks Puma's up and hits his headlock driver, the One Perceter, to keep his championship.
He may have lost the match, but Puma King's performance made him a star to the Believers tonight.
WINNER AND STILL LUCHA UNDERGROUND CHAMPION: ETHAN CUETO 3

As the match is over, EC3 screams his rage and happines at winning. He's soon joined by Dario Cueto who takes the belt from him and holds it up like he is the champion. But out of the dark comes someone who also competed for the title some times ago...

It's JEREMIAH CRANE! Getting in the ring behind EC3, he waits for him to turn around and hits him with his Death Kick (Bicycle Kick). EC3's down, and Crane turns his attention towards El Jefe and the belt. But he's not alone to creep out of the shadows.

Obaryion, Payne and Kodama, Mil Muertes's Death Disciple come out! They rush at Crane and begin to beat him up. Crane puts up a good fight, he kicks Obaryion to the ground and pushes Kodama back. Just as the monstruous Payne is about to hit him, he backs off... The three Disciples slowly back off one step, then two. Crane doesn't understand, but we see what he doesn't...

Mil Muertes is behind his back! Muertes attacks Crane and beats him down under the eyes of his followers. He tears off Crane's leather jacket in a fit of rage, screaming "SHE'S MINE" (referring to Crane's girlfriend Catrina who's not around). Crane fights back, but soon Muertes is throwing him out of the ring and just at the feet of the believers. They brawl like madmen just in front of a rabid crowd, but El Jefe has made it back to his office's entrance, followed by his brother.

"HOOOOOOOOOLD ON!

Mil Muertes! Jeremiah Crane! You two can't seem to live inside my Temple together. To me, the solution is easy: Mil wants Crane dead, Crane wants Mil dead... WELL I'LL LET YOU KILL EACH OTHERS! BECAUSE NEXT WEEK, YOU TWO WILL FACE...... IN GRAVE CONSEQUENCES!

Whoever lost will not be a problem anymore, and whoever win...

HE WILL GET A TITLE SHOT AT MY BROTHER EC3!

Quick Show Recap:

Azteca didn't find out who the undercover cop is, so Dario Cueto puts him in a match against Marty the Moth with no disqualification.

Thank you buddy!

With 1h shows I think it's better to use alternatives in order to further stories

With the intricacies I'm going with the Pope/Murdock i figured it was a great 1st edition !

Prediction contest for episode 36 is still running, feel free to join in! For a reminder, winner of this multiple show prediction contest will be able to pick a future TV Champ!

Wow man, that's a huge honor to be an inspiration for others to start a diary, thank you very much for that

I like the set up to the trios title match

Warhorse is a superb fit for LU, i'm gutted I didn't think of him for my own roster !

The ending was great, I was worried you were gonna do a LU diary without LU's best character ever, EL JEFE!

Keep up the good work!
