I have really enjoyed season two so far but it has been a chore finding the episodes online. I found a guy posting them every week on youtube but unfortunately it looks like all of his LU vids have been taken down. I guess I will have to search really hard for Aztec Warfare. As for spoilers I have avoided them like the plague and thus far have managed not to find out anything. Keeping my fingers crossed that I get to see Aztec Warfare before finding out who won. Greatest wrestling show on television in my opinion yet limited options available to watch if you don't get El Ray. The El Ray youtube channel is pretty lame usually only showing episode highlights or one full match from a show. If you are willing to pay for it, you can get a season subscription to season 2 on itunes, with the episodes available next day. As for a link to the show, I find reddit is a great source for that. www.reddit.com/r/luchaunderground/Thanks for that info TM. I don't mind paying but unless I can watch it on my TV I am not interested in the itunes deal. I have an ipod for music but not sure how the video thing works. Are you able to watch on TV using itunes? I don't even think there is an itunes app on PS4 (which is where I watch youtube) and I really don't want to watch the shows on my laptop. I will check out that reddit link and hopefully find something. It seems LU or El Ray are even worse than WWE in pulling stuff off of youtube and dailymotion. Can't blame them but it also prevents getting more eyes on the product. Their own youtube channel like I mentioned is pretty lame. All they have from Aztec Warfare 2 is a two minute highlight video (with no result shown) and a four-way match with the winner getting a spot in AW2. There are no complete shows to watch. It shouldn't be this frustrating to be a LU fan but I guess I will continue searching, and hopefully before AW2 gets spoiled for me lol.

I personally have a Roku and since El Rey is not on my cable system I subscribe to Sling TV to get it. Not ideal, but atleast I get it on demand any time the night it airs. Its impossible for me to watch anything live at 8PM with 2 kids to get to bed each night. If the Sling TV option is intriguing, then if you pay for 3 months worth they send you a free Roku.

Thanks again for the info TM. I was able to catch Aztec Warfare 2 on youtube today as I found someone that put it up. It's a heck of a search but it feels good when it pays off. I really enjoyed the match and the surprise debuts. Looking forward to what comes from here.

All I gotta say is, F Bayley and Sasha's overrated match. Sexy Star and Cheerleader Melissa killed it tonight!

First time I can say I ever saw blood in a women's match. Great story here. Yeah, I just like to break the LU kayfabe a little so people know who is behind the characters so they can get a little recognition. I've seen blood in women's matches but I was not expecting that. And it got a little messy. LU's use of color is interesting to me. For being more a 'tv show' than a wrestling show, as some people like to put it, the old school use of color seems anachronistic but at the same time appropriate for the theme of the show.

They use color well, and just for the stipulation matches to end feuds which really call for it. It is a TV product, but a TV product meant for adults, so makes complete sense to use it when it makes sense. This certainly was a time that made sense, as was Fenix in Grave Consequences and Pentagon Jr. at Ultima Lucha.
BTW, speaking of Grave Consequences, glad to see that stipulation coming back next week.

Personally, I think there is still a place for color in wrestling but like you put it, it should be done sparingly and with meaning. I have such a hard time these days seeing a stipulation match and there is no blood involved. A cage match or a chain match without blood just doesn't seem right to me. I mean, why have that cowbell on the bullrope if someone doesn't get busted open with it? Now I sound bloodthirsty. LOL. But that's the old-schooler in me.

While I haven't seen much of Lucha Underground, I thought I'd way in a bit on the use of color in today's wrestling world.
The WWE seems to have rigorous blood testing these days, so if both men are clean I can't see the WWE not taking advantage of color in a stipulation match.
The way I see it if both talents are clean then blood should be used if the story makes sense to use it.
