Jacy' and Steven are the unofficial lore keepers of Lucha Underground.
Join us as we recap and analyze every episode of the El Ray Network's now-defunct TV series "Lucha Underground" from beginning to end, reflect on what was happening in wrestling from 2014-2018, and discuss current events in the world of pro wrestling today.
“Cage in a Cage” | Roman Gets a New Belt?! | Chaos at Wrestlecon 2016 | Following Lucha #62
We continue our lore keeping journey on Following Lucha this week by watching and analyzing season 2 episode 14 of El Ray Network’s Lucha Underground, “Cage in a Cage.”
From a very important health update on Mil and Matanza, to Angelico’s tragic motorcycle accident, to Cage existing inside a cage, to the Crowning of NEW trios champions, to Pentagon having hot wax poured on his crippled body, episode 14 was wrestling-heavy and light on lore! We also talk wrestling in the week of April 27, 2016, as Chyna passes away, chaos breaks out at Wrestlecon 2016, Samoa Joe wins gold on a house show, and Ric Flair gets hammered at an airport. Also, we talk Seth becoming the inaugural WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Roman’s new gold, Braun Strowman’s neck surgery, Matt Jackson obtaining a Nevada State Fire Performers License, and the general disaster that was Double or Nothing 2023.

“Monster Meets Monster” | Double or Nothing 2023 | Disciples of Death Dead?! | Following Lucha #61
We continue our lore keeping journey on Following Lucha this week by watching and analyzing season 2 episode 13 of El Ray Network’s Lucha Underground, “Monster Meets Monster.”
From Dario Cueto continuing to emotionally manipulate his roster, to Drago and Aerostar getting buried by commentary, to the reckoning of the Disciples of Death, to the battle of behemoths between Mil Muertes and Matanza, episode 13 was pretty good! We also talk wrestling in the week of April 20, 2016, as TNA gets evicted from their corporate offices, WWE suspends Adam Rose and Konnor, Total Bellas gets a premiere date, and Bray Wyatt injures himself in Italy. Also, we talk Steve Austin squealing to the dirt sheetz, Hulk Hogan’s interest in AEW, how Chelsea Green got her job back with WWE, the state of Imperium, and the original (real) plans for AEW Double or Nothing 2023.

“Three’s a Crowd” | AEW Collision Announced! | Bryan Alvarez Chill Like That?? | Following Lucha #60
We continue our lore keeping journey on Following Lucha this week by watching and analyzing season 2 episode 12 of El Ray Network’s Lucha Underground, “Three’s a Crowd.”
From the debut of a more militaristic Killshot, to the ambiguous motives of Black Lotus, to Daga’s first match in the temple, to the actual rebirth of the disciples of death, to the team of Rey Mysterio, El Dragon Azteca Jr., and Prince Puma advancing in the trios tournament, episode 12 was decent! We also talk wrestling in the week of April 13, 2016, as a bunch of NXT stars debut on the Raw after Mania, AJ Styles becomes the number one contender for the WWE title, Total Divas has a roster shakeup, and Trevor stops taking new indie dates. Also, we talk the announcement of AEW: Collision, Sammy Guevara being a good guy again(?), Seth Rollins is filming for a new Captain America movie, and CM Punk hates Bryan Alvarez who was maybe Maria’s past lover.
