Here's an example of why Lucha Underground is awesome, and this is a bit spoilerish for anyone not watching so fair warning
They introduce their version of the tag titles...which are for 3 on 3 matches because LU always has to show that they are different from their competition. They spend like a whole 2 or 3 weeks building this up with a tournament full of awesome matches. This tournament has MAIN EVENTERS competing for the title (INCLUDING THE FUCKING WORLD CHAMPION!), because in LU they are NO meaningless titles. The owner of the company even says in a backstage segment that he wants those titles to be almost as important as the world title.
We get 3 wrestlers (Angelico, Ivelisse, and Son of Havoc) who have been jobbers in this company...and can't get along due to various personal issues built up over weeks, thrown together for this tournament by the sadistic heel authority figure. He claims they're all losers with no major singles victories, so he's throwing them in this tournament. Somehow, they make it to the finals despite not getting along and Ivelisse even walking out on a match. We get to last week's show. They build the whole show around the final match of the tournament involving Ivelisse, Son of Havoc, and Angelico against two other teams, one of which includes some hot new talents who will use this match to show people what they've got, and another team consisting of major, main event player heels. It's built up like a pay per view match and main events the show.
Miraculously, Angelico, Havoc and Ivelisse outlast the other two teams and get the pinfall for the title, partially due to one of the teams getting eliminated due to an attack on one of their members by a mysterious guy in the audience. This is their first big win in Lucha Underground after unsuccessful runs as singles wrestlers....but noooooooo, out comes the heel owner.
He announces one more team personally selected by him, and makes the match no disqualification. Out comes a heel team that is known to be on his payroll, a team that once beat down one of the largest guys on the roster and burned out his eye with a cigar ON A TELEVISED EPISODE OF THIS SHOW. Forget PG television. They come down to the ring with kendo sticks. They beat the shit out of Angelico, Ivelisse and Son of Havok...all around the arena. Ivelisse is practically on one leg from a leg injury she sustained in the last match. One of the guys BITES HER IN THE HEAD. Angelico is fighting another one of them out in the crowd...and kind of getting his ass handed to him. Meanwhile, Son of Havoc gets suplexed off a balcony directly in front of some fans, but eventually he mounts a brief comeback, with a somersault off the balcony for a great spot. Still, his team mates are getting beat down. Ivelisse is about to get a kendo stick beat down by two guys in the ring. Matt Striker sounds worried for her safety and points out that she's by herself with Havoc down and Angelico too far away to help. Just when things are looking grim for the team, THIS happens:
This gets a "HOLY SHIT!!!" from Striker on commentary
The look on Ivelisse's face after that spot...is...priceless and makes for good story telling. After seeing that, she forces herself up on practically one leg, grabs the kendo stick and LAYS INTO THE ENTIRE OPPOSING TEAM with strike after strike. Angelico comes to, Son of Havoc gets in the ring. Ivelisses looks at them and starts yelling at them to go high...they climb the turnbuckles and both come flying off the turnbuckles onto their opponents for a double pinfall. The place goes nuts. Striker puts ALL THREE OF THEM OVER by retelling their entire history leading up to this moment, pointing out what underdogs they all were. He treats this moment with all the importance of someone winning the world title. The crowd busts out a that was awesome chant, followed by a you deserve it chant.
Now keep in mind, Ivelisse...a woman, has just won a major title that MEN and MAIN EVENTERS competed for. On a show, where another woman claimed a victory in a singles match against a major male heel.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is Lucha Underground
And one last note, when's the last time WWE put that much effort into a FUCKING TAG TITLE STORYLINE OR MATCH?
