4 Ups & 1 Down From Ultima Lucha - Night 3

Ups...

4. Pentagon vs. Pentagons

The Empire Strikes back has a famous scene where Yoda leads Luke Skywalker to the Dark Side Cave. Luke goes inside and discovers Darth Vader has secretly been chilling in there for awhile. Luke decapitates him only to reveal his own face beneath the mask. Swerve! Lucha Underground opened up their last show of the year with something a bit similar, but, believe it or not, a touch crazier.

Vampire brought Pentagon Jr. to a cave, and inside were a bunch of Pentagons hanging out and minding their own business. A strobe light hit as the real one beat the hell out of the fake ones. The final Pentagon was unmasked revealing Vampiro in disguise. It was silly, ridiculous but also pretty sweet.

Pentagon Jr. emerged as Pentagon Dark, and the show began. Sure as hell beats a 20 minute Stephanie McMahon promo to open a wrestling show.

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
