I just kinda don't get it.
Like, all wrestling exists in a shared universe, so to speak. So why do Lucha Underground and Impact actually kill people off that are going to wrestle elsewhere? And how could they ever bring those people back if they wanted to?

And how could they ever bring those people back if they wanted to? Well, she died in the Undead Realm, so if and when they bring her back, it’s a pretty easy comic book style explain. She got resurrected. Boom. Even better, have it be some angle building toward her return.

Ogz, KM and Grado profiles got moved to the Alumni section. KM has a bad and rep and was def shit for a good while in TNA but I did enjoy him and Fallah Bah as a team
Grado......Just go back home where they like you because none of your shit translates over here
I thought KM was underrated. He was pretty good mic and acting skill, him and Fallah helped each other bring their personalities out. He's actually pretty damn tall and big and I liked his finisher

Like, LU is more a TV show that happens to have wrestling in it and you can just say that’s in its own canon rather than with everything else. Heck, even the crossover stuff with Impact just counts as “the promotion” against Impact rather than the show.

So they wrote alie out by murdering her. Don't change impact Don't forget that rosemary killed a bunch of undead people with a wrench, butcher knife and a sword and we got a Kevin Sullivan run-in... I don't know if I hated it or loved it.

And how could they ever bring those people back if they wanted to? LU exsists in its own world and nothing on that show carries over anywhere else , they kill people off to give them proper send offs and not have their audience asking where is so and so because they know that character was killed for a reason....no character has died in LU that has not been in service to a story or a character on the show. And LU has a time traveler , gods , and trinkets etc that can bring people back to life if they need to. Impact has been trying to be Lucha Underbudget for awhile now but their attempts are so laughably bad and that is just from a storytelling point of view.

Um, Impact, I know you wanted to make Allie's death scene sad and all, but you kinda failed to account for one thing: a throat slash with that kind of weapon and with that much blood would pretty much equal no talkie. No way you could avoid hitting the vocal cords.
...Google prob'ly thinks I'm a serial killer now...

I kinda wish Allie got signed by WWE just so they could debut her by emerging from the Lake of Reincarnation.

LU has had direct crossovers with Impact, and Impact has had crossovers with ROH, and ROH has had crossovers with WWE, etc. Hell, Mil Muertes just won the PCW Ultra title and they put him over as a former LU Champ. In fact, that's what earned him a title shot, so to speak. So Lucha Underground does in fact exist in the same "universe" as other wrestling, they just present it differently.

They actually explained Allie's return to the indies. At RISE, she showed up as Cherry Bomb, and they acted like it wasn't even Allie. So I guess they are two different characters?

Grado may wind up in NXT UK I could see that happening. I don't ever see him going to the WWE main roster, but as someone that works primarily in NXT UK, he'll get over thanks to the UK crowd.

They're brought back Gail Kim, and they're now bringing back Rob Van Dam (no, seriously).
Could Sabu be behind?
The fact they're getting rid of people to bring in the old guard is the old school LOLTNA we missed.

About RVD, they are bringing him for his name value, Impact clearly lacks star power. Part of RVD run in TNA being bad was also due to booking sucking the motivation out him(See his TNA debut vs Sting, it was beyond retarded that he squashes Sting and then he gets beatdown for 10 mins due to Hogan forgetting his cue).

Not for her accolades or her wrestling skill or her personality or her cultural importance, because of her ability to unretire when no one wanted her to come back.
