Lucha Underground Season 3 Episode 9

-Commentators:  Matt Striker & Vampiro.
-The show started with promoter Dario Cueto giving the Dial Of Doom a spin...and he got Dario's Choice.  Rey Misterio Jr. was already scheduled for a match and Pentagon Dark already lost to Matanza...but the mention of Pentagon reminded him of someone who had his arm broken by Pentagon.
-Matanza Cueto d. Cortez Castro(with his arm still in a cast) after the Wrath Of The Gods(rewind powerslam) to retain the Heavyweight Title (2:22).  After the match, Dario told him to get well soon and dropped terms like "undercover" and "rat" to hint that he knew about Castro's true motives.
-Backstage in Dario's office:  Dario and Joey Ryan shared a laugh over Castro's fate; as Ryan left, Son Of Havoc & Mascarita Sagrada entered the room.  Havoc has a match up next, but he was there to ask for a match between Sagrada and Famous B...Dario said that Famous B was "retired", but saw an interesting possibility.  He said that the match would take place...but the winner of tonight's match between Havoc and Dr. Wagner Jr. would pick the stipulation.
-Prince Puma addressed the fans from the ring...he said that he had defeated Mil Muertes, but beating him wasn't enough for him.  Mil put his mentor Konnan in a coffin, so Puma vowed to do the same to him...the challenge was issued for a Grave Consequences Match.  Catrina Perez appeared at the top of the stairway to accept the challenge...but that was a ploy as Mil attacked Puma from behind.  Puma fought out of a Flatliner attempt and dropkicked Muertes out of the ring.
-Son Of Havoc(w/ Mascarita Sagrada) d. Dr. Wagner Jr.(w/ Famous B & Beautiful Brenda) with the shooting star press (5:35).  After the match, Havoc consulted with Mascarita and announced that next week's match between Mascarita and Famous B would be a Believers' Backlash Match(fan-lumberjack strap match).  It would be a bit different as Havoc encouraged the fans to bring the weapons for that match as all weapons would be legal as well.
-Coming soon:  The Rabbit Tribe with Paul London, joined in this week's vignette by two masked men.
-Next week:  Prince Puma vs. Mil Muertes in Grave Consequences.
-Rey Misterio Jr. d. Chavo Guerrero Jr. in a loser-leaves-lucha match.  The match initially ended with Chavo winning by DQ due to Chavo Sr. entering the ring and hitting his own son with a chair (10:18).  However, promoter Dario Cueto didn't care for the DQ finish in his main event and ordered a restart with no disqualifications.  Rey went on to win after a 619 and springboard splash (3:24 of the restart, 13:42 total).
