This is the end of Lucha Underground…season 3. Whatever happens next, there’s not going to be Lucha Underground for at least half a year: 4 months to get ready to tape, and 1 month to turn tape into episodes. That’s at the earliest. Enjoy both hours, because it’s either the last you’ll see until Spring ’18, or the last you’ll see.
With LU soon on the way out, I bit the bullet and finally added Guadalajara to the listings. Locally, it airs first on Thursdays nights, but that channel doesn’t have a YouTube feed. The Saturday 10pm airing is airing on this feed, though my sense is it’s a screw up and supposed to blacked out from the internet. Televisa attempts to block all which aren’t locally produced by the station from airing on YouTube, to avoid getting in trouble with YouTube (for copyright violations) or the TV shows themselves (who may have not given them the right to air it on the internet.) I don’t think CMLL Guadalajara or AAA really cares if they air, but it seems to be a blanket policy. It’s also a poorly administered policy, with those shows and others slipping thru when the schedule isn’t lined up correctly. That all adds up to meaning I should never be able to air those shows except for incompetence, but incompetence is fairly common.
IWRG may air twice this week. +Lucha will probably post the Traumas/Eterno vs Indy Nation match anyway, but I’m hoping AYM shows it just to be safe given the great reviews it’s gotten.
