10 Best Heels In Lucha Underground

10. Captain Vasquez

Captain Vasquez
Lucha Underground

Lorenzo Lamas on a wrestling show? That’s something I absolutely never thought I’d see. But you know what? It actually works!

The storytelling of Lucha Underground can be a bit complex. Not only are there the backstories of all the wrestlers, but there's the ancient tribes to learn, as well as an ongoing police investigation to deal with.

Beyond The Temple is the LAPD trying to bring down Dario Cueto. This is where Joey Ryan and Cortez have come into play as undercover cops. However, there's a police captain who is trying to shut down this entire investigation. Surprisingly, that man is the former Renegade(not the WCW wrestler).

We’ve only seen Lamas on a couple of occasions so far, but his addition to the show in Season 2 has certainly been intriguing. From what we’ve witnessed to date, Cueto answers to the corrupt Vasquez (though that, of course, could be setting the stage for a twist), but the police captain also has a boss who will someday enter The Temple himself and compete. Who is he? We have no idea, but it’s fun to think about!

Let's hope in Season 3 Lamas appears in front of a live crowd, as that would be all kinds of awesome.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
