Lucha Underground season 3 episode 16: Johnny Mundo vs. Sexy Star, Battle of the Bulls final

Johnny Mundo took his heel status to the next level in the maim event

Fenix and Aerostar search for their partner Drago

A backstage segment aired after the commercial break with Fenix and Aerostar frantically searching for their Trios partner, Drago. Drago was brutally beaten and taken back to the tribe by Kobra Moon and her reptilian tribemates, Pindar and Vibora last week. Fenix and Aerostar were in a bathroom when Kobra Moon appeared. She told them that their search was futile as Drago had rejoined the Tribe. Aerostar countered by telling her that Drago had made a vow never to return to the tribe of reptilians.

Moon laughed it off and stated that they had systematically broken Drago down and that Pindar and Vibora would do the same to the two. Pindar and Vibora made an appearance and assaulted Drago’s Trios partners. Fenix and Aerostar’s couldn’t match the strength and tenacity and were laid out after a hard-hitting battle. The segment ended with the Tribe standing tall over the bodies of Fenix and Aerostar. Moon finished the scene by saying that next time it would be Drago himself who would leave them to die.

Sexy Star and The Mack’s backstage scene

Another break followed and on the other side, Sexy Star and Mack were seen backstage. Star congratulated Mack on becoming the no.1 contender and said that she always believed in the insanely over and gifted star. Mack replied by wishing her luck for her match, later on tonight and stated that he would take the belt off her if she wins. He told her not to be mad at him once that happens soon. Both Star and Mack walk out of the locker room, but that wasn’t it. A spider was seen crawling beside Star as she made her way out, signaling her next challenger and the continuation from last week’s angle.

Jeremiah Crane is out to kill Mil Muertes aka Pascual Mendoza

Another feud was introduced to the believers next when Crane confronted Dario Cueto in his office. He demanded a match and strangely, climbed the ceiling using a chair, ripped off the tiles and took something out. He claimed he’d kept it there when he was a kid, and walked through the halls the temple with the object in his hands.

He bumped into Catrina mid-way and the revealed the object to be an ouija board. He reminded Catrina how they used to play with it years ago and further disclosed that Dario had agreed to a match between himself and Mil Muertes for next week. Pascual Mendoza is what Crane referred Muertes as. He claimed that Mendoza would wish he had died in the earthquake that Catrina saved him from. He vowed to kill Mil next week and have Catrina all for himself before walking past her to end the segment.

The championship main event was up next as Sexy Star looked to regain the LU title she lost to Mundo a few weeks back.
