4. Prince Puma Vs. Pentagon Jr.
Professional wrestling is a unique form of performance art, and is wonderful in its absurdity from time to time. The entire product is so audience-led, with the throngs of viewers taking certain characters to heart and propelling them to the upper echelons of the show. It most famously happened with Daniel Bryan in WWE in 2014 of course. The equivalent in Lucha Underground just happens to be a ninja skeleton luchador with a tendency to break the arms of his fallen foes as sacrifices to his dark master, who turned out to be a Canadian vampire pope. Yep, Lucha Underground is insane. The believers took Pentagon Jr. to their hearts to say the least, and arguably no wrestler benefited more from the show than Pentagon. Pentagon has started season two embroiled in a story with Prince Puma and Mil Muertes as the former two vie for the spot as number one contender to the big belt. A match between two of the most popular stars on the show is going to happen, and I'd wager it will happen sooner rather than later.
