[…Cont]
Loud “LUCHA” and “THIS IS AWESOME” chants from the people. Eventually they make their way back into the ring, and it looks like these guys are still fresh. Puma flies out of the corner with a lariat, followed up with an uppercut. Crossbody for two, and that was the first pin attempt of the night. He tries for a standing moonsault, misses, but connects with a standing shooting star press.Mundo comes back and rushes him into the turnbuckles, pounding away with rights and lefts. He hits a stiff short-arm clothesline, followed by a flying kick. A running kick lands for two, and Mundo hypes the crowd for some kind of finisher. He sets up in the corner, but is rolled up for a close two-count.
Mundo again tries for his finish but Puma pulls himself out of the ring and springboards off the ropes with a flying knee. Now he goes to the high rent district for a 450 splash, but nobody is home. The Mundo Drive connects (Morrison’s Moonlight Drive), followed by a standing S.O.S. type move. He hits the End of the World (Starship Pain) for the 1-2-3 in an incredible match.
Winner: JOHNNY MUNDO
-After the match, Cueto makes his way out with the briefcase and says Mundo has earned his prize. Mundo and Prince Puma are both attacked from behind by two guys that came out of nowhere. I believe they would be Ricky Reyes and Lil’ Cholo, although the commentary team didn’t mention them by name. Ezekiel Jackson hits the ring and the beatdown continues. Cueto says it’s not only lucha stars that compete in his temple, and these guys work for him. He says “welcome to Lucha Underground” as the heels stand over Mundo and Puma, and Matt Striker takes us off the air.
What. A. Show.
