LU + Impact

Lucha Underground Season 4 Episode 19

-Commentators:  Matt Striker & Vampiro.
-Backstage in promoter Antonio Cueto's office:  As Antonio placed the Aztec Medallions in the Gift Of The Gods Title belt, Jake Strong made his entrance...Antonio gave him one of the medals, saying that he would be in a battle royal tonight with the other six chosen Medallion holders.
-"The Savage" Jake Strong won a battle royal.  Eliminations:  "Big Bad" Steve Pain by Aero Star, Shawn Hernandez by King Cuerno and "The Darewolf" P.J. Black, Cuerno and Black by Dante Fox, Aero Star by Strong, and Dante Fox by Strong (3:13).  The winner of the battle royal had the option of eliminating a competitor from the following week's multi-way elimination match for the Gift Of The Gods Title, but Strong declined and said he wanted to prove his superiority over all six of his competitors.
-Willie Mack d. Killshot by DQ when Mil Muertes attacked Mack (2:50); Son Of Havoc watched the match from the balcony and ran in to help, but Killshot got away as Mil laid out Havoc and Mack.
-X.O. Lishus & Ivelisse Velez announced that they would be challenging for the Trios Titles again...but with Joey Ryan out of action thanks to The White Rabbit, their new partner would be Sammy Guevara.  Famous B claimed that Guevara had signed a long-term deal with him, so he had to team with others under his employ...but Sammy trashed the contract as well as his now-former manager.  Ultima Lucha Cuatro will feature The Reptile Tribe(Daga, Jeremiah Snake, & Kobra Moon) vs. The Rabbit Tribe(The White Rabbit, Paul London, & El Bunny) vs. Lishus/Ivelisse/Guevara for the Trios Titles.
-"The Savage" Jake Strong d. Johnny Mundo via anklelock (13:09).  Matanza attacked Mundo after the match(leaving him bloody) and also laid out Taya Valkyrie when she tried to help her husband.
-Next week:  Strong vs. Pain vs. Aero Star vs. Cuerno vs. Fox vs. Hernandez vs. Black for the Gift Of The Gods Title.
-In two weeks:  Ultima Lucha Cuatro!
