Lucha Underground Season 1 Episode 11
Transcript
00:00Congratulations, Big Rick.
00:02You have officially signed a big-money contract.
00:04I want that bonus in cash.
00:06Welcome to Aztec Warfare!
00:10We're here to beat people up and take their money!
00:13I'm the boss.
00:15Big Rick realizes that his entire crew has failed.
00:18Big Rick didn't read the fine print.
00:21He has to earn this signing bonus.
00:24Oh!
00:25And Big Rick has been eliminated.
00:27El Mexico! Nadie me respeta!
00:30He's making poor career choices
00:32and confiding in Chavo Guerrero.
00:34Oh!
00:35Never trust a guerrero.
00:37Mr. Drago.
00:39I need to know what Drago's made of.
00:41While it's Cuerno's debut,
00:43Drago then comes away with a huge victory.
00:47Cuerno's debut was spoiled by Drago.
00:50Oh!
00:51The thrill of victory!
00:55Whoa!
00:56The thrill of the hunt! He got him!
00:58The hunt has just begun!
01:02These two men are tied, one match apiece.
01:05So this is the defining match.
01:07Wow!
01:08Oh!
01:09Oh!
01:10Someone's about to die!
01:14Whoa!
01:15Due to the double count-out,
01:18the match is a draw.
01:24DRAMATIC MUSIC
01:29STRING MUSIC
01:46CHEERING
01:49Thank you everybody for riding once again with the El Rey Network here in Boyle Heights
01:58at the Temple of the Lucha Underground.
02:00Matt, it's on fire, it's gonna rock, what's up, brother?
02:03Last week here, we had a match between King Cuerno and Drago, and if we learned anything
02:07from that match, we learned that those two luchadors will do anything it takes to take
02:12each other out.
02:13Tonight, last luchador standing, think of the possibilities in this massacre.
02:19Let's go to the ring.
02:20The following lucha is scheduled for one fall.
02:23Introducing first, accompanied by Bale, Cortez Castro, and Sisko.
02:35That's Mr. Sisko.
02:41And their opponents.
02:46The chief of Pimpinela Escalante and Mascarita Sagrada.
02:53Alright, well if anyone puts the boy in Boyle Heights, it's Pimpinela, and if anyone puts
02:57the high in Heights, it's Mascarita Sagrada.
03:00I totally agree with you, Matt, this is something that nobody expected.
03:04The fans are going ecstatic for Mascarita Sagrada and Pimpinela.
03:08Well, it's Mascarita Sagrada and Pimpinela Escalante make their way to the ring.
03:14Celebrate the variety of life here on Lucha Underground.
03:18Quickly becoming my favorite luchador, Pimpinela Escalante.
03:23It's a party here in the temple.
03:26It's like Chavo Liberace had a child.
03:29Not Chavo Guerrero, Charo.
03:31Big difference.
03:32Oh, you just stepped in it, brother, and I heard you.
03:36What do you mean, Chavo?
03:37Chavo Liberace?
03:38What?
03:39Charo.
03:43My referee is Rick Knox.
03:44And this is, I mean, trying to make some sense of this all, man.
03:47This is going to certainly be a clash of styles, though.
03:50You think?
03:51You sure called that one, didn't you?
03:52See that?
03:53Matt, can you explain to me, can I have your opinion more than anything?
03:56Uh-oh.
03:57On what?
03:58On, uh...
03:59What would you do right now if you were the ref?
04:01If I were the referee?
04:02Yeah.
04:03I would call it down the middle, assert my authority.
04:05You know, point to my stripes, do the universal referee sign.
04:08Papi, dame un beso.
04:12Man, what would you do if you were three gangbangers
04:14and you're used to rocking in the streets and doing things
04:16in your own way, and then you show up at the Lucha Underground
04:18and this is what you got to run into?
04:20Yeah.
04:21What would you do?
04:22Can you not use the term gangbang when Pimpanela's in the ring?
04:24Thanks.
04:25Brother, would you pay attention and stop thinking of things
04:26that you shouldn't be?
04:27Here we go.
04:28Interesting choice of maneuvers there.
04:29Interesting choice of maneuvers there by, uh...
04:32Uh-oh.
04:33...Cisco and Cortez.
04:34Go behind.
04:35Pimpanela rolls through.
04:36Take nothing away from Pimpanela Escalante.
04:38Nothing wrong with being different, but certainly a great athlete
04:41if you will!
04:42Oh!
04:43Nice!
04:44There's Big Rick.
04:46And Pimpanela is deceptively tall and deceptively strong.
04:55Matt, they're calling for you to get in the ring
04:57and give Pimpy a kiss.
04:58It'll be the most action I've had in a while.
05:00Oh.
05:01Do you want me to get Pimpy down here and give you a kiss?
05:03Uh, I'm okay.
05:04Not that there's anything wrong with it, you know?
05:06Can you prove to our viewers that you don't have any discrimination?
05:10There are no discriminations here.
05:11Oh!
05:12Equal-opportunity ass-kickers everywhere you go,
05:14and Pimpanela Escalante is one.
05:16Ooh!
05:17Knife-edge chop.
05:18Oh, Jesus!
05:19Cisco on the receiving end.
05:21Cisco on his way in.
05:22Pimpanela moving.
05:23Misses the splash.
05:24Cisco out to the middle of the ring.
05:25Fine forearm.
05:26Look at the way this unit works.
05:27Yeah, I knew it was coming here.
05:28Boom!
05:29Bang!
05:30Boy, oh, boy.
05:31And here comes Bale.
05:32It's almost as if these three luchadores,
05:35Cisco, Bale, and Cortez,
05:37work as one unit.
05:40They form to make one.
05:43Transforms.
05:44Okay, cover here.
05:45What'd you say?
05:46Pimpanela Escalante,
05:47showing that he still has some fight in him.
05:49But did you see the look on their faces?
05:51They're just determined,
05:52and they're mapped out their violence.
05:53They just function as a wild oil unit,
05:56like you called it, man.
05:57You can't let the psychological ramifications
05:59of being in the ring with Pimpanela and Mascarita
06:01take you off your game plan.
06:02Well, hey, brother, in effect, I have.
06:04Wow!
06:05Red suplex by Cortez the Killer.
06:06Cover here.
06:07Brother, Cortez just looks intense, man.
06:10Yep, and Big Rick,
06:12the boss of these three men,
06:13looking on.
06:15Lighting the Dutch master.
06:17Puffing away.
06:18Now, Mr. Cisco traps the arms.
06:21Looks like he's going for a surfboard.
06:22Pimpanela's face.
06:23Ooh!
06:24Curved stomp.
06:25Oh, that's something I like.
06:26Oh!
06:31Oh!
06:32Senton Dick Togo style.
06:34Cisco in for the cover.
06:35Still not enough.
06:36Boy, oh, boy, Pimpanela tough, huh?
06:39Hell yeah, brother.
06:40Told you.
06:41I told you the first time he came out.
06:42When you said, she, I said, no, he said, he did.
06:44No, he didn't.
06:45Yes, you did.
06:52Fighting with all the venom and vinegar
06:54that one can muster.
06:55Pimpanela has to watch out.
06:56What a little exchange there.
06:57Oof.
06:58What was that all about?
06:59That was nice.
07:00That was nice violence.
07:01Pimpy needs to make up about 20 feet
07:03to tag in his fresh partner,
07:04albeit Mascarita Sagrada.
07:07Oh!
07:08Oh!
07:12Man, just abuse, brother.
07:15You know what?
07:16Do you kind of feel like they're going
07:18more to hurt somebody than actually win the match?
07:20That's a great point.
07:21Winning the match is one thing,
07:22but sending a message and showing off
07:24that you can actually hurt.
07:26How do I call that?
07:28Go ahead, brother.
07:29So that was a butt butt.
07:33Mascarita Sagrada flying.
07:36Pudencamerana.
07:37Frankensteiner, if you will.
07:38Mascarita Sagrada on the way.
07:40Tilt-A-Whirl DDT.
07:43Cover.
07:46Mascarita was able to see Cortez coming in.
07:50Damn, brother.
07:51Dropkick right to the face.
07:52Those little legs can move.
07:53Oh!
07:54Mafia kick.
07:55Dislocated his jaw.
07:56No doubt about it, man.
07:57I like that.
07:58It doesn't matter how big it is.
07:59Kick him again.
08:00If I was him, if I was in the ring right now,
08:02you know what I would do?
08:03I would beat his little...
08:06Oh, that's why you're over here.
08:08Mascarita Sagrada.
08:09Oh!
08:10Cannonball.
08:19Pimpanela, who has captured the imagination
08:23of the crowd here at the temple.
08:25Arguably the most exciting luchador we have yet.
08:27Ah!
08:28There you go.
08:29Dame un beso.
08:30Aui, oui.
08:33And now...
08:36Pimpanela.
08:37Oh!
08:38Classic lucha libre made famous by Mila Mascarita.
08:42Blue Demon, the original.
08:44Even great Gloria Guerrero, I'm sure, has done that move.
08:47A tope off the third turnbuckle to the floor.
08:50Brutal.
08:51Suicidal.
08:52Look at Pimpy soaking it up.
08:53That's right.
08:54You feel the momentum shifting now
08:55in favor of Mascarita Sagrada and Pimpanela.
08:57Blind tag was made.
08:58Not sure if the referee saw that.
08:59Oh, yeah, I like that.
09:00Oh!
09:01Almost a 3-D into a codebreaker.
09:05That's gotta be it.
09:06Yeah, man, he deserved it.
09:07You know what?
09:08Forget about it.
09:09Here we have it, Mr. Sisko and Cortez Castro!
09:13Hell, yes.
09:14You know, Big Rick and his crew
09:16had four of the coveted 20 spots in Aztec Warfare,
09:20which determined our first-ever Lucha Underground champion,
09:23but none of them even made the final six.
09:26That has to stick in Big Rick's craw for sure.
09:30Speaking of Big Rick, brother,
09:31here comes the man-mountain himself.
09:33Big Rick is the boss, smoking a cigar,
09:36stepping in, in a no-smoking zone, by the way,
09:38not caring at all.
09:40He's got something to say.
09:42Yeah, that's right.
09:43Forget we're in California.
09:44Brother, he does not look happy.
09:46He never does.
09:47It looks like his biceps are bigger than Mascarita Sagrada.
09:59Passes the Dutch to Mr. Sisko,
10:02and now Big Rick speaks.
10:03I'm just out here today
10:05to let every single one of you,
10:07when I mean everyone,
10:11I mean every
10:13one
10:15of you.
10:19I want you to know that sooner
10:21or later
10:23I'm coming after the gold
10:25and whoever
10:27is carrying it.
10:29For we must all appear
10:32before the judgment
10:34of Big Rick.
10:38Wow, what was that?
10:39Big Rick was quoting scripture there,
10:41but before that, Big Rick made it clear
10:43that anyone that stood in his way
10:45to the Lucha Underground Championship
10:47would suffer, and it seems that
10:49Cortez, Castro, and Bale took exception to that.
10:51Hey, man, it was like a little slap in the face.
10:53Did you see that look when he gave him the cigar?
10:55He was like, hey, man, I was gonna mention it,
10:57but I wasn't sure, but, boy,
10:59they took the big man down there,
11:01Oh, man, brother, look, he's got a candlestick.
11:05Well, it looks like this union is unraveling,
11:07and that's what the Lucha Underground Championship does.
11:09It makes enemies out of friends.
11:11It makes friends out of enemies.
11:13Call it what you will.
11:15It's the most important prize here in Lucha Underground.
11:17Oh, my God, brother, he's gonna crack here.
11:19Cortez.
11:21Bamboo shoots slapped against the skin.
11:27Man, Big Rick just got
11:30schooled, checked.
11:32Oh, man.
11:34Oh, Cisco enjoying the Dutch, puffing away.
11:36What's up here, man?
11:38Look at that look.
11:44Hey, man.
11:46Brother, I've seen something like this in prison.
11:52Ooh!
11:54Yeah! Leave a stamp, dog.
11:56Dude, it stinks.
12:08I guess Big Rick isn't the boss anymore.
12:12It's symbolic as well as brutal.
12:14It's a message.
12:16Keep your eye on the prize. I get all that.
12:18Oh, dude, the line has been crossed, brother.
12:22Big Rick just got checked.
12:25Notice where they go.
12:27Dario Guido's office.
12:29Well, when you're a mercenary,
12:31high as bitter, right?
12:33Yeah, hired guns.
12:51That was amazing.
12:54Stop that, then boom!
12:56There goes Rick's eye.
12:58Big Rick had a hard time
13:00seeing how valuable we could have been
13:02to one another.
13:04Now it'll be hard for him to see anything.
13:08You watch my back,
13:10and I'll dig deeper.
13:14Can I get a yes, sir?
13:16Yes, sir.
13:18Good.
13:21Okay, I'm just being told that Big Rick
13:23has been taken to a medical facility.
13:25We'll give you updates as the night goes on.
13:27And Vamp, it's a far cry from last week
13:29when we saw Prince Puma retain
13:31the Lucha Underground title,
13:33but then a new challenger emerged.
13:35Dude, I had the exclusive
13:37opportunity to find out
13:39just a little bit more about that attacker,
13:41and let me tell you something.
13:43He is the man they call Cage.
13:45Let's take a look.
13:47Hey, everybody, it's Vampiro again,
13:50and I'm on the ring side
13:52up and personal
13:54with the man they call Cage.
13:56Good to meet you, brother.
13:58Right off the bat,
14:00I can feel it,
14:02and this is what everybody wants to know.
14:04You got this attitude.
14:06You just present yourself with this arrogance.
14:08I gotta be honest with you, man.
14:10Backstage, in the locker room,
14:12or wherever, everybody's talking
14:14that you just ain't happening, man.
14:16You got a lot of heat. What's up with that?
14:18What is this, high school? I mean, come on.
14:20Are we here to make friends? We're not here to make friends.
14:22They don't hand out titles to the most-liked luchador.
14:24They hand out titles
14:26to the best luchador,
14:28and that's exactly who I am.
14:30I feel it.
14:32I understand it.
14:34I'm almost gonna say I'm about to be your fan.
14:36Don't get all in my face now.
14:38You come here, and you've taken out Puma.
14:40Boom!
14:42And he didn't move, brother.
14:44You've bit off a big chunk of the pie
14:46here in the Lucha Underground,
14:48taking out the champ right off the bat.
14:50I took out the champ because I'm not gonna wait in line.
14:52I'm not gonna wait for my turn
14:54when I'm better than everyone in the building.
14:56You see, Cueto asked for blood.
14:58He asked for violence, and I'm handing him all those things.
15:00And all I ask for in return
15:02is that 20 pounds of gold.
15:04You've only been here for a week,
15:06here in the Lucha Underground,
15:08shooting your mouth off.
15:10What makes you so sure?
15:12Tell me. Help me. Help the fans understand.
15:14What makes you so sure that you're gonna dominate?
15:16Because one thing is punching the champ,
15:18getting the title, going after the title,
15:20but retaining superstar status, brother.
15:22That's what this business is about.
15:24Doesn't matter if I've been here for a day,
15:26a week, a month, a year.
15:28I am the best. Okay.
15:30I'm not gonna wait my turn. My turn is now.
15:32Brother, the only thing I see
15:34is a kid with big arms and a big eagle.
15:36You can sit here, and you can try to rile me up.
15:38It ain't gonna happen.
15:40I'll go through every damn person in this building,
15:42and I'm gonna step back in that ring.
15:46I'm not trying to push your buttons.
15:48I'm not trying to offend you, brother.
15:50Who is Cage in 2015?
15:52Tell me, convince me that you're the guy
15:54that I should put my money on.
15:56I'm the best. I'm just built better.
15:58All right? I'm bigger, I'm stronger,
16:00I'm faster, and I want it more.
16:02You want to know why people call me Cage?
16:04It's because everyone that's ever met me
16:06or been in the ring with me,
16:08including Conan,
16:10the late champion Puma,
16:12they both found out when you're in the ring,
16:14Cage, you're not in the ring with a man.
16:16You're in the ring with G.
16:20There you heard it.
16:22Much respect.
16:24You gotta see it to believe it.
16:26The intensity is at an all-time high
16:28here in Lucha Underground.
16:30Boyle Heights.
16:32Vampiro with the man.
16:34Cage, future champion.
16:36No doubt about it.
16:38Coming up on El Rey Network.
16:56The following lucha
16:58is scheduled for one fall.
17:00Introducing first,
17:02from Puebla, Mexico,
17:04Superfly!
17:06All right, Superfly, a luchador
17:08that has impressed us over the past few weeks.
17:10Tonight, a huge guest for the Fly.
17:12Muchísimo.
17:14Es desde Puebla, México, Matt.
17:16Un lugar muy conocido en todo el país.
17:18And his opponent,
17:20from Jalapa,
17:22Veracruz, México,
17:24Pentagon Jr.
17:28Over the past few weeks,
17:30Pentagon Jr. had been aligning himself
17:32with Chavo Guerrero.
17:34During his time in Aztec warfare,
17:36Chavo blasted Pentagon across the skull
17:38with a steel chair and eliminated
17:40Pentagon from championship contention.
17:42This is the first time we've seen
17:44Pentagon since that night.
17:46These two luchadors
17:48are striving to break
17:50from the middle of the pack to the top tier
17:52here in Lucha Underground.
17:54Brother, you gotta give it to this kid, though.
17:56You can't tell me he's not...
17:58Look at that, man. That was home run, man.
18:00You gotta give him props, brother.
18:02He bases his entire way
18:04off being the opposite of Octagon,
18:06a great Mexican wrestling legend.
18:08Superfly.
18:10Just being Superfly.
18:12Backflip onto his feet.
18:14Superfly ducks the clothesline, gives the bump to create space.
18:16Superfly now using the ropes for momentum.
18:18Backflip into the lung blower.
18:20Nicely done by Pentagon.
18:22Is it enough?
18:24You know how much that hurts?
18:26Yes, I do.
18:28Damn!
18:30What am I going through right now?
18:32Pain. Doesn't even know where he is.
18:34You know, that starts at the bottom of your spine,
18:36goes all the way up to your neck,
18:38it tingles through your feet.
18:40It is so painful, and it takes the wind out of you.
18:42It's not good, man.
18:44But I'm feeling that kick, brother.
18:46You know, me being the martial arts guru that I am.
18:50Oh!
18:52A new twist on an old favorite
18:54courtesy of Pentagon Jr.
19:00You can feel it, man.
19:02It's just like enjoying the violence.
19:04As it says,
19:06poorly translated, but it does mean
19:08I have no fear.
19:10Zero miedo.
19:12Better be careful you don't say another word.
19:14And let me answer that.
19:16Whoa, arrogance.
19:18In Luchador-like Pentagon, what would Pentagon need
19:20to get to that next level here?
19:22You're seeing how vicious and unrelenting
19:24Pentagon is.
19:26Anything else?
19:28I don't know, man.
19:30The talent is there,
19:32the aggressiveness is there,
19:34the ego is there, the arrogance is there.
19:36I mean, he's a world-class fighter, no doubt about it.
19:38I don't know if he's got to put more time in,
19:40if he needs better guidance.
19:42I don't know.
19:44Matt, good call, good question.
19:46All right, let's not shy away
19:48from Superfly, who has been taking
19:50quite a beating and yet is on
19:52his feet, and that in and of itself
19:54is a victory as Pentagon.
19:56He's put in so deep.
19:58I don't know if he's catching it, but the extension
20:00after impact, that is brutal.
20:02How he's getting up after that knockout shot,
20:04not sure, but he's a warrior.
20:06Pentagon keeps Superfly moving,
20:08and that may work against Pentagon now
20:10as Superfly gets ahead of his team.
20:12Double clothesline now. Now this is the opportunity
20:14that Superfly needs.
20:16Pentagon is down, and for the first time
20:18now, it looks like the tide can
20:20turn in Superfly's favor.
20:22Referee will count to ten if neither
20:24arrives to their feet.
20:26This match is a no contest, similar to what
20:28we will see later on tonight in the last
20:30Luchador standing, where the
20:32referee's only job will be to count to ten,
20:34and whichever Luchador can get to his feet
20:36is the winner. Imagine what you have
20:38to do to another man
20:40to keep him down. Let your
20:42imagination run with that.
20:44The fans are saying, yes, you can.
20:46Yes, you can. That's a big thing in Mexico,
20:48brother. When you're coming back from behind, it's almost like
20:50an overtime game in hockey in the world.
20:52Stanley Cup, let's say.
20:54Si se puede. Yes, you can.
20:56World Cup, Stanley Cup,
20:58World Series, Super Bowl.
21:00How about Lucha Underground Championship?
21:04Springboard into the
21:06arm drag, and now Superfly showing
21:08some offense. Don't worry about the people, bro.
21:10Come on.
21:14Pentagon tries
21:16to follow through,
21:18and now Superfly perhaps will live up to his
21:20name. This is Lucha
21:22Underground!
21:26That's awesome. Very awesome.
21:30Now let's see where Pentagon's
21:32maturity as a Luchador starts to develop.
21:34But you cannot pass the test to be a Luchador
21:36in Mexico if you don't learn your tumbling, and that certainly
21:38saved him off that.
21:40But not that!
21:42Cover! Lefty ref!
21:44Oh!
21:46No fear, dog.
21:50Don't get angry, kid. Control yourself, man.
21:54You hear Vampiro's advice to
21:56Pentagon. You hear the believers in the temple's
21:58advice to Superfly.
22:00Wow.
22:02Body scissors roll through, crossing the legs.
22:04Crossing the legs makes it very
22:06difficult to kick out.
22:16Blocks the kick there.
22:18Spin around. Ducks the clothesline.
22:20Pentagon Jr. on the move now.
22:22Tanahashi clothesline. Is it enough?
22:24Pentagon floats over. No leg cover.
22:26And that may have been the difference. I think so.
22:28Anger's getting the best of him.
22:30Not putting a period at the end of
22:32the sentence like he just said, Matt.
22:34You know what I mean? Little details. He's got to tune up.
22:40Bad dog.
22:42Yes! Back kick into the solar
22:44plexus. Knocks the wind out of Superfly.
22:46What's Pentagon setting up for him?
22:48Superfly blocks it by grabbing.
22:50Pentagon takes the block.
22:52Piledriver. That's got to be it.
22:54Two.
22:56Pentagon Jr., your winner.
22:58And your winner,
23:00Pentagon Jr.
23:10Hey!
23:12Yo pensé
23:14que Chavo Guerrero
23:16era una leyenda.
23:20Yo pensé
23:22que él
23:24era quien me iba a ayudar.
23:26Pero ¿saben qué?
23:28Me ha defraudado.
23:32Pero algo
23:34bien importante.
23:36Sé que hay alguien
23:38que está dispuesto
23:40a cruzar la línea
23:42junto conmigo.
23:44Y solo espero
23:46que esté de acuerdo
23:48en ayudarme.
23:50Porque yo soy
23:52Pentagon Jr.
23:54El Zaro Miedo!
23:56Pentagon thought that Chavo
23:58was the legend. Thought that Chavo could bring him
24:00to the promised land. And though Pentagon now
24:02realizes that Chavo may not.
24:04And he said that there's only one man out there
24:06that he thinks could help cross the line.
24:08So what's he talking about? I don't know, but coming up
24:10later on tonight, last Luchador standing
24:12match between Drago and
24:14King Cuerno. It's coming up
24:16on Lucha Underground.
24:32The following lucha is scheduled for
24:34one fall. Introducing
24:36from Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico
24:38Sexy
24:40Star!
24:42She is more than just a pretty
24:44mask. She has
24:46proven to herself, Matt, and I've
24:48told you a million times she's proven to the world she's been
24:50beat down her whole life. She reached the point
24:52of no return. Nowhere to go. It was looking
24:54very bleak, and she turned to Lucha Libre
24:56and now she here is in the greatest company in the
24:58world, which is Lucha Underground.
25:00And her opponent, from
25:02Anaheim, California
25:04El Mariachi Loco!
25:06Oh, this
25:08is a great story. This young man
25:10actually worked in a restaurant
25:12two blocks away from the temple.
25:14One day, took off his hairnet, took
25:16off his apron, put on a mask
25:18and El Mariachi Loco went
25:20into training, and this is
25:22perfect proof this man works for tips.
25:24After his matches, he goes around the ring
25:26and collects dollar bills
25:28from the fans here. Man, but I gotta
25:30touch on something else, man. What's up? I can't
25:32stress enough the
25:34superheroism of Sexy Star. She's
25:36proved herself worldwide, brother, and she is
25:38here in a foreign country, ready to
25:40show the world that women
25:42can hang and Lucha Underground.
25:44He made a great point about Sexy Star's history. She was at
25:46the point of no return with just living in a
25:48man's world, but instead of quitting,
25:50Sexy rose above. So I guess heart
25:52and pride, no gender.
25:54Or faith in yourself.
25:56Because not only was she not living in a
25:58man's world, but she reached the point
26:00that there was no hope
26:02that she had faith in herself.
26:04Great role model for all women worldwide,
26:06wouldn't you say? Oh, absolutely, and again,
26:08think of the best women wrestler that you possibly
26:10can. Trish Stratus, Lita,
26:12Fabulous Moolah, Sensational Sheridan. Come on, man.
26:14Where does Sexy Star, in your mind,
26:16rank amongst them?
26:18Well, you know, okay, Moolah, okay.
26:20But come on, man. I think Sexy's right up
26:22there. I think she's a little bit above and beyond.
26:24Standing switch.
26:26Go behind now, trying to gain
26:28advantage of the waist, trying to take
26:30Mariachi down. Mariachi's hip gyrations
26:32somehow break him loose.
26:34Passed by. Tilt to whorlhead.
26:36Scissors. Sexy Star. Crazy.
26:38Just like an angel, brother.
26:40And the thing I like about
26:42Sexy Star's offense is that she
26:44brings it into combinations.
26:46She puts move on top of move on top of move.
26:48It's not just one move, wait, one move, wait.
26:50No, it's a succession of moves.
26:52And I think what Sexy Star embodies
26:54with her movements and her actions...
26:56Oh, man! Yes! Bicycle kick.
26:58Every woman is sexy.
27:00Every woman is a star.
27:02No, forget about it, man. That was a bicycle kick
27:04to the face.
27:06Okay, listen. I grew up with four sisters, man.
27:08Believe me. I know.
27:10What, you kicked your sister in the face? What's wrong with you?
27:12I kicked me. Drop toehold, and now Mariachi logo.
27:14You see? Why you gotta pull the hair, brother?
27:16Hey, listen. Sexy's fair game.
27:18You can't feel sorry for Sexy now.
27:20You know, this gender thing is out the window.
27:22Well, we've seen other luchadores
27:24take Sexy Star lightly.
27:26That's right. That's right.
27:28Most notably, Chavo Guerrero,
27:30who has suffered some retribution for sure,
27:32so...
27:34Jesus!
27:40We talked about Sexy's resiliency
27:42in her personal life, but now the resiliency
27:44in her professional life is going to be tested.
27:46I'm hoping that's not gonna push some buttons
27:48and she's not gonna snap and really do some damage.
27:50Oh, boy!
27:52Oh, yeah.
27:54Come and get yours, Mariachi.
27:56How stupid is that guy?
28:00Look at that.
28:02Sexy cutting the distance of the ring.
28:04That is crucial.
28:06It allows Sexy to have a favorable position
28:08high above El Mariachi logo.
28:10What will Sexy do with it?
28:12Oh!
28:14Take him to school, brother.
28:16Sexy's body into the clothesline
28:18and now Sexy Star!
28:20Boom! Boom! That's right.
28:22Listen to the fans, brother.
28:24Sexy Star is definitely showing
28:26that she belongs here at the top
28:28in the lucha underground.
28:30Oh!
28:32There you go. Hell hath no fury.
28:38Big boot to the face, man.
28:40The shortened space
28:42between the two luchadores and luchadoras
28:44in this case benefits Sexy Star
28:46for her explosive impact maneuvers.
28:48Whip reverse.
28:50Sexy on the move now.
28:52Sexy turns around to use the turnbuckle for support
28:54to place the boot. Dips out.
28:56And Sexy once again back up to the turnbuckle.
28:58She's quick.
29:00Oh!
29:02Crossbody turned into a lucha arm drag.
29:04This creates space. Will this benefit Mariachi?
29:06Let's see.
29:08Sexy's speed coming into play.
29:10No.
29:12Sexy in position. This doesn't bode well.
29:14Oh!
29:16Top rope right underneath Sexy's jaw.
29:18Not good.
29:22Being here, you got a master's degree.
29:24She doesn't have an Adam's apple.
29:26So, uh...
29:28Trachea, esophagus, throat.
29:30The rope got her on her neck. How about that?
29:32Oh!
29:34Back slap.
29:36Inside cradle, small package. Is it enough?
29:38Sexy Star!
29:40And your winner is...
29:42Sexy Star!
29:46It doesn't take a fancy move.
29:48You don't need to be 6'5 and 300 pounds.
29:50You just need to have heart.
29:52And Sexy Star has all that.
29:54A true role model
29:56for every man, woman, and child.
29:58Congratulations. There you go.
30:00Sexy Star.
30:02All right, ladies and gentlemen.
30:04We put all the happiness aside
30:06because tonight, a last luchador
30:08standing match.
30:10King Cuerno, Drago.
30:12The feud, the rivalry, the bloodletting.
30:14It ends tonight.
30:32The following lucha
30:34is our main event.
30:38And is a
30:40last luchador standing
30:42match.
30:44Introducing first,
30:46from the highlands of Guerrero, Mexico,
30:48King Cuerno!
30:52Well, these two
30:54men embody the spirit of the
30:56beasts incarnate, if you will.
30:58King Cuerno, the hunter. Last week,
31:00we saw a match between Cuerno and Drago.
31:02They were tied up at one apiece.
31:04And then Drago did something that people are still
31:06talking about, and they will talk about
31:08for quite some time. Leaping
31:10off the top of the temple, sending
31:12King Cuerno crashing through a table.
31:14Neither luchador can continue. The match is
31:16ruled a no contest.
31:18No disqualifications.
31:20Last man standing. The only reason
31:22the referee is in the ring is to count
31:24to ten. If a luchador cannot answer
31:26that ten count by rising to his feet,
31:28he loses. And his
31:30opponent, from
31:32El Inframundo,
31:34Drago!
31:36She just said something
31:38so interesting. Drago from the
31:40Inframundo, she said.
31:42That's like the underworld, the dark side.
31:44So, is he taking
31:46to the ring a dragon spirit, or is
31:48he going even deeper into the dark side?
31:50This young man, Drago, has
31:52earned the respect of the believers here in the
31:54temple with last week's amazing
31:56physical and
31:58mental match. But this is different.
32:00This is last man standing. It's not so much about
32:02intensity. It's just about who can beat
32:04the other guy up and with what.
32:06You said it, man. There's nowhere to go.
32:08This is it, man. I mean, what provokes you to get
32:10to this stage in your life, you know what I mean?
32:12This is last luchador standing. The only place
32:14you'll see it is right here on Lucha Underground
32:16right now.
32:18Brother, and look at King Cuerno in his
32:20classic stance. Just
32:22the calm before the storm, would you say?
32:24The calm before the violence? Absolutely. And we know
32:26that Drago is the quicker of the two.
32:28Whereas Cuerno has the
32:30timing. How will that come into play?
32:32This is going to be a long,
32:34brutal affair.
32:36Wow, there you go.
32:38And now, every time
32:40a luchador is down on their back,
32:42the referee's job is to start a 10 count.
32:44It's simple. If a luchador can't get up
32:46by 10, the match is over. And
32:48I think Cuerno may have hit the back of his head
32:50on the floor. You know what?
32:52But he is a warrior, brother.
32:54He's been hit. He knows
32:56very well to win a fight like this, you gotta
32:58be willing to make a sacrifice, and he's taking the beating.
33:00Referee's halfway there.
33:02He's getting to his feet. Nah, you can't
33:04keep him down, though. Cuerno up.
33:06Match continues.
33:08And we have to keep, just maybe, a little
33:10eye on how long it takes the luchador.
33:12That's early in the match, and already it's an
33:148 count. That shows how much damage has
33:16been inflicted so early on. Well, it's like you said,
33:18he hit his head. I'm sure he was knocked silly, but I
33:20can pretty much guarantee he's not going to go out
33:22just like that. Oh!
33:24My goodness. Throw punk DDT,
33:26and now it looks Drago's going to
33:28focus on the head.
33:30Brother,
33:32Cuerno has got knocked
33:34out. Is he knocked out?
33:36We're going to find out. Referee's up to 4.
33:42Very smart. Very smart.
33:44Very smart. Very cunning.
33:46Very logical. And it's over.
33:48Drago out. Yep.
33:50Look at that. Perfect. Cuerno knew
33:52that. Running sit
33:54out, Bubba Bob.
33:56Know your enemy, brother.
33:58Know your enemy.
34:00The Isle of War, Sun Tzu. Take it, take it, take
34:02it. Gain his confidence, and when it's
34:04time, come in and pull it out from
34:06under him. And we've talked about King Cuerno.
34:08We've coined him the hunter, and
34:10right there, the trap was
34:12set, and Drago took the
34:14bait. Referee Marty Elias on the
34:16count. What was the word, Matt? Cunning.
34:18A warrior. A hunter.
34:21The veins, the intensity
34:23showing on the body of King Cuerno.
34:29Oh! I don't know how Cuerno may
34:31have sensed that Drago was going to
34:33rise to his feet again. Matt,
34:35look at the maturity in these warriors. Look at the timing.
34:37Look at, he's just
34:39hurting him like a shark, taking
34:41a bite, taking a circle, coming back, coming
34:43in, coming out. Say, is that all you've got,
34:45brother? I want to hurt you. A slow
34:47and painful death versus a
34:49quick kill. But is it a game?
34:51Do you think? Perhaps to Cuerno.
34:53He likes that. It's like a chess match, would you
34:55say? Who knows what people get off
34:57of. German suplex, holding on.
34:59And notice the placement of
35:01Cuerno's hands. Makes it hard to breathe
35:03on top of being dropped on the back
35:05of your head. Two times?
35:07Oh, man.
35:09Wow. Standover, switch,
35:11grab, suplex.
35:13Brainbuster, perhaps?
35:15Well, more than his
35:17brain, spine. Trio of impact.
35:19Referee starts his count.
35:21Man, he's in his position.
35:23He's sizing him up,
35:25just like... You'll notice how close the
35:27luchadors stay to their opponents during the
35:29count because you don't want to give too much space
35:31to allow your opponent to recuperate. Yeah,
35:33I can agree with you there, brother, but this is the
35:35king of the humpers, man. He's just
35:37kind of like, I don't want to finish him yet. I want
35:39to hurt him. You know what I'm saying? He enjoys this
35:41inflicting pain. The crowd seemingly
35:43willing Drago to stand
35:45up and answer the count.
35:47Somewhere in all of this,
35:49Drago has become something
35:51of a cult favorite here in the temple,
35:53all because of his tenacity and,
35:55dare I say it, the balls on this guy.
35:57No doubt, brother, but he just got kicked in the face
35:59with a shin that was like getting hit with a baseball
36:01bat. You know what I'm saying? That boot was just
36:03like a Muay Thai kick to the face.
36:05That chop took his lungs out.
36:07No doubt he's getting a beating. The chop won't keep
36:09Drago down for ten, but it certainly just
36:11adds a little insult.
36:13You know what it is, and he's getting chopped like that.
36:15You know, it's hard to breathe with all that stuff.
36:17The mask is heavy. You better believe
36:19that that chop is doing damage.
36:21The chops are placed on the left side of the chest. If you know your anatomy,
36:23figure that out. Hey!
36:25Nice flipping blockbuster
36:27there. Again, back to
36:29the head of Cuerno.
36:31You can put your money on it. Cuerno wasn't
36:33expecting that. Not at all.
36:35Both luchadors now on hands and
36:37knees. As the match goes on, pay
36:39attention to the levels of the luchadors'
36:41heads. Whose head is higher, that'll give you
36:43a direct indication as to who has the advantage.
36:45Ooh! Smart.
36:47Very smart. Why not?
36:49Use your environment.
36:51Art of war, brother. In spite of
36:53Cuerno's height difference,
36:55Drago's head is higher right now.
36:57Drago has the momentum.
36:59Oh!
37:01Wow!
37:03Look at that. Drago using
37:05the ropes like vines in the jungle
37:07to take Cuerno down.
37:09Both luchadors down,
37:11and the referee has started his count.
37:15And that's something to look for
37:17is when the referee starts his count.
37:19It's the referee's discretion.
37:21Drago's up,
37:23but Cuerno is not.
37:25Drago to his feet.
37:31Cuerno is
37:33stirring. Cuerno back up onto his feet.
37:35You can pretty well bet, Matt, that the fans
37:37are appreciating the effort being put in here.
37:39This is something they've been watching
37:41the whole season. This is it, brother.
37:43This is the end of the line for one of these guys.
37:45Whether you're here in the temple or you're at home
37:47and you're watching, you understand the severity
37:49of this match.
38:01Cuerno demanding.
38:03Senior official Marty Elias starts the count.
38:05Cuerno would like nothing more
38:07than to rid himself of the fly
38:09in his ointment, if you will, Drago.
38:11And the irony here is that Cuerno
38:13almost...
38:15He started the hunt.
38:17Cuerno was the one that incited this.
38:35Matt, you've never been in any of these matches?
38:37Last man standing, last luchador standing.
38:39You've been in some violent ones.
38:41They're brutal, man, because it just takes a toll on you.
38:43Oh, look at this. This is coming up. The arrow from hell.
38:45La flecha del infierno.
38:49Cuerno risking it all.
38:51Suicide dive.
38:53Pope Cojilo, if you will, yes?
38:55Yes, brother. The arrow from hell.
38:57La flecha del infierno.
38:59Drago! Drago!
39:03Perhaps the arrow pierced the heart of the dragon
39:05because the referee has started his count
39:07and Drago is a long way
39:09from rising to his feet.
39:11And now the last time Cuerno went under the ring
39:13and brought out the table
39:15and hit him in the ass.
39:17Let's see if there's any type of redemption.
39:19Matt, he's smart. You said it.
39:21You called it. He's setting up that table
39:23away from the ceiling,
39:25away from the roof.
39:27Cuerno!
39:29Cuerno!
39:31Cuerno!
39:33Cuerno!
39:35Cuerno!
39:37Cuerno!
39:39Cuerno!
39:41Cuerno!
39:43Cuerno!
39:45Remember, no disqualifications.
39:47The ring now becomes
39:49a weapon.
39:51Cuerno,
39:53the master of his domain.
39:55I am so impressed
39:57with the way he is not rushing.
39:59He is stalking.
40:01Doing all the right things, man.
40:03Alright. We saw this last week
40:05almost to a T.
40:07Cuerno sets up the table
40:09but now Drago is the sacrifice.
40:11Man, he is out, brother.
40:13He is out.
40:15You know what? This is just so like a scene
40:17from the Aztec pyramids in Mexico City.
40:19Putting somebody on the altar,
40:21making a sacrifice, telling the gods,
40:23take his heart, brother. Take his soul.
40:25Take it.
40:31Drago playing possum.
40:33Any more
40:35animal references?
40:43Both luchadores now
40:45in a very precarious position.
40:47Out on the ledge, out on the ring apron.
40:49Huge forearms to the neck.
40:51Head area. Uh-oh.
40:53No way.
40:55One of these luchadores will not
40:57answer the count of ten.
40:59You can see that Cuerno's left arm is hooked
41:01under the top rope. That may be Cuerno's only
41:03salvation here.
41:05Fireman's carry. This doesn't bode well.
41:11The thrill of the hunt
41:13through a table
41:15and the referee starts his count.
41:17Both luchadores are down.
41:19This is a last luchador
41:21standing match.
41:23You can't even hear
41:25the count, Matt. The fans are going crazy.
41:27Referee has not started his count.
41:29Now Marty Elias starts.
41:31Last luchador standing.
41:33It's as simple as it gets.
41:41Halfway there.
41:45We've turned the corner. Referee is up to six.
41:49The fans are behind Drago.
41:53Eight. Eight.
41:57Drago's stirring
41:59and Marty Elias lets it go.
42:03Drago's got to want this, brother,
42:05because he's getting beat.
42:07I think our senior official understands the animosity
42:09and hatred between these two luchadores.
42:19The referee is also, I'm sure
42:21he's concerned about their health, brother,
42:23because this is just dangerous at this point
42:25in the game. Not the referee's job in this
42:27particular match. Only reason he's there is count to ten.
42:31Nowhere for Drago's
42:33head to go. He's hurt.
42:35He's hurt.
42:39The concern
42:41in Vampiro's voice certainly carries
42:43weight with all of Vampiro's experience
42:45and now what is this? You've got him knocked out.
42:47A cable is a rope.
42:49No disqualification.
42:53You heard Cuernos say to the
42:55referee, you can't stop me.
42:57It's not your job in this particular instance.
42:59Right now.
43:01Drago's helpless.
43:03How crazy is that?
43:05Look at the rope in Drago's mouth.
43:07Reminiscent of Greg Valentine,
43:09Roddy Piper, first chain match ever
43:11at the Violent Brutal.
43:13Oh!
43:15While Starrcade may have changed
43:17wrestling all those years ago, tonight
43:19the last luchador standing match
43:21here between King Cuerno and Drago
43:23will change lucha forever.
43:25Hang on. How can Drago
43:27get to his feet if he's tied
43:29and the referee's counting? That's the way it is, brother.
43:31Referee's up to six.
43:35Seven. Drago's trying
43:37but the rope is preventing him.
43:39That's it. Over.
43:41And your winner,
43:43King Cuerno!
43:47No rules. You do what you
43:49gotta do. You wanna advance
43:51and lucha underground. Hey, forget about it, man.
43:53That's the way it is. You did the right thing.
43:55It's a cheap victory in my opinion,
43:57man. What does it say about Cuerno?
43:59That he's smart and cunning but Drago is
44:01trying to fight to his feet. He says that he's
44:03hungrier. Now this. Look at this.
44:05Look at this.
44:07Insult to injury, brother.
44:09It's safe to say that this rivalry
44:11is officially over. Do I really
44:13gotta answer that? Are you really asking me?
44:15You know very well Drago
44:17one day will return.
44:19Good night, everybody!
