Sucks about that for MVP, but he has taken it well and said he messed up as LU wants a tight lid on developments and storylines before they air and he hopes he can work with them again. Also, speaking of developments, there's talk that three new luchadoras will be debuting at tomorrow's tapings, see for yourself their identities but be warned. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} Io Shirai, Kairi Hojo and Mayu Iwatani, from the Stardom promotion {Spoiler} Hope that is true the best elbow in da bidness wreckin the temple

Now that I think about it, Pentagon Jr. is Vegeta.

Since its all but confirmed that Ricochet is WWE Bound at this point, they're going to need to either write him off or find someone to replace him as Prince Puma.
I say go with the Heroic Sacrifice scenario, Puma saves one of the Aztec Descendants from Matanza but at the cost of his own life in doing so and Mysterio takes off his mask and keeps it as a memento to never forget who they've lost.

I have not read the spoiler myself but seen alot of discussion kicking up about it and sounds like LU took a huge risk and alot of people do not know how to take it just yet.
But this is what LU does doing completely unconventional things and has put them on the map.

I'm not going to be all judge, jury, and executioner for what's happened until its aired. I remember there was people being confused and wondering how they was going to make Vampiro as Pentagon's master work, until Ultima Lucha aired and everything fell into place. Let's see what happens when they air it and the build for it.

Read a spoiler earlier and I'm pretty damn conflicted about it. It will definitely polarise when it airs, but LU has surely earned some 'wait and see where this goes' at this point. {Spoiler}{Spoiler} Personally I think the inter-gender stuff is one of the worst things about LU and would prefer them to simply establish a women's division with the talent they have (and they have a lot of it especially now they're bringing in the likes of Io freaking Shirai), but as said, they have earned some patience from me.

I was at the show last night. I'm pretty sure of the SPOILER you guys are talking about. It went over AMAZINGLY.
Of course, I've been to a few tapings recently and it's been built up to very well.
An upcoming match on Season 2 will MAKE this character.

I really hope whatever this is about, it isn't a WWE-esque "We were doing what the fans wanted, but now we're going to make him the anti-thesis of everything you loved about him" thing with Pentagon...

Some new faces made their way to the Temple this weekend: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} - Vermin's own Kevin Martenson had a tryout match against Kevin Kross, who was having his first dark match of season 3. "Let's go Kevin" "Kevin sucks" chants during this match. Still waiting on Kratos.
- The Stardom 3 made their debut Saturday and had their first matches tonight. All three were over from the beginning and got a huge ovation after their matches.
- Former FCW/NXT trainee & Big Brother contestant Austin Matelson debuted as a masked reptilian luchador. "Luchasaurus" chants As far as the bigger spoiler... {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}I'll just say that it went over very well to everyone except the smarkiest of smarks. I'd say 80% of the Temple were chanting her name, 10% were shaking their heads in disapproval, and another 10% were chanting "Sexy sucks!" and "No she doesn't" in response to "You deserve it". Regardless, everything will be alright after tonight

{Spoiler}It doesn't sound good, but Lucha Underground hasn't let me down so far. Less concerned about who won than that it seems to be a "Move a championship to somebody else without having them beat the previous champion" cheat, which seems an underwhelming way to end the reign in question. And potentials devalues the match type used, which would really suck since it's one of LU's signatures.
Though it does feel ironic that this is basically the ONE wrestler on the LU roster who's been regularly getting Cena/Roman-like "God, why are they pushing/protecting them" comments about them on the internet.
Still, optimistic to see how it all plays out.

{Spoiler}Wait. They made SEXY STAR their champion!? Holy shit, that's awful. And not because it's a woman, but because Sexy Star herself is not good.
