Lucha Underground Season 2 Episode 16

-Commentators:  Matt Striker & Vampiro.
-Elsewhere:  Promoter Dario Cueto met with the previously-seen councilman and passed along some documents(and apparently some money)...the councilman let him know that the police are investigating him and they may have some people on the inside.  The councilman let him know that the temple is important to his employer...and the employer may make a personal visit in the near future.
-For Aztec Medallion #7:  Joey Ryan won a triple threat match with Mr. Cisco and Cortez Castro when he rolled up Castro with a handful of tights (1:19).  The seven-way match for the Gift Of The Gods Title will be on next week's show.
-Backstage:  Catrina Perez gave her own version of a pep talk to Mil Muertes before his Graver Consequences Match with Heavyweight Champion Matanza Cueto...however, King Cuerno was spying on their meeting.
-Rey Misterio Jr., Prince Puma, & Dragon Azteca Jr. d. Johnny Mundo(subbing for the injured Angélico), Son Of Havoc, & Ivelisse Velez(w/ Taya Valkyrie) to retain the Trios Titles when Puma pinned Havoc after the 630 Splash (7:59).  After the match, Taya attacked Ivelisse due to a miscommunication between Ivelisse and Mundo a few minutes earlier.
-Matanza Cueto(w/ Dario Cueto) d. Mil Muertes(w/ Catrina Perez) in a Graver Consequences Match to retain the Heavyweight Title.  Catrina slapped Dario and Matanza reacted by hitting Catrina across the back with a chair, then shutting her and her cursed stone inside a casket.  Mil rallied and nearly won, but Matanza powerbombed Mil onto a casket and then dropped him into the casket with the Wrath Of The Gods(rewind powerslam).  After that, Matanza closed the casket lid to win and retain his title (14:48).  After the match, Dario went to the casket that seemingly contained Catrina, but found it empty...the "faces of death" took the casket away, but one of them was revealed to be King Cuerno under the hood.
-Outside:  The councilman entered his limo and spoke to his employer...Dario believes that his brother is the most powerful person in the world, but the councilman said that his "lord" was the most powerful.  We got a glimpse of the boss lighting his cigar, but not much else...
