Lucha Underground Season 2 Episode 18

-Commentators:  Matt Striker & Vampiro.
-Backstage:  Pentagon Jr. insisted to Vampiro that he was ready...but Vampiro disagreed and grabbed him in an arm hold to prove his point.  Vampiro told him he could go to the temple, but he wasn't ready to face the monster(Heavyweight Champion Matanza Cueto) yet...
-Joey Ryan d. Mascarita Sagrada(w/ Famous B & Brenda) after a turnbuckle-walk DDT (3:19).
-Elsewhere:  King Cuerno talked to Mil Muertes(still confined in his casket), telling him that he(Mil) thought he was king of the jungle, but it wasd HIS jungle...and now he's just another trophy in his collection.
-Brian Cage d. Chavo Guerrero Jr. with the Lucha Destroyer(Steiner Screwdriver) to win the Gift Of The Gods Title (7:59).  Cage wasted no time, issuing his challenge to Matanza for a title shot on next week's show!
-Backstage:  Taya Valkyrie met with Jack Evans & P.J. Black and led them to a fallen Fenix...who will team up with them tonight?  Johnny Mundo was quick to take credit and
-Backstage in promoter Dario Cueto's office:  Cortez Castro & Joey Ryan went through the absent Cueto's office for evidence against him...but Mr. Cisco walked in on them.  He didn't figure out their deal, but was upset that they were robbing the boss without him and went to tell Dario.  Cortez/Officer Reyes and Ryan had no choice and pounced on Cisco to arrest him.
-Johnny Mundo, Jack Evans, & P.J. Black(w/ Taya Valkyrie) d. Rey Misterio Jr., Prince Puma, & Dragon Azteca Jr. to win the Trios Titles.  Puma had Black pinned after the 630 Splash, but Mundo pulled the referee out of the ring.  While the ref was out of commission, the rulebreaking challengers delivered low blows on the three champions and Mundo had Puma covered after the Fin Del Mundo(split-legged corkscrew moonsault), but Puma kicked out when a second referee ran in to count.  Azteca got a hot tag and rallied, but Taya distracted the ref as Azteca had Mundo pinned with a sunset flip.  Evans hit Azteca in the back with a chair, allowing Mundo to reverse into a jackknife cradle for the pin (11:31).
