Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for January 27, 2016

The second season begins with El Vampiro in the Youssef Floro clinic. It has been 181 days since he has checked in, and ever since Ultima Lucha, his mental state has gotten better. As part of his release, he must avoid the places and people that triggered his violent behavior. This causes Vampiro go nuts and attack everyone, including the psychologist that interviewed him. Of course, that last part was all a dream, as he is released. Matt Striker picks him up from the clinic, and they head out in a heavily customized convertible. Matt Striker says they've been invited back to the temple, but it's much darker than it was before.

Fenix returns to the temple with the Gift of the Gods Championship. He's back for Mil Muertes and the Lucha Underground championship. Catarina welcomes him to Dario Cueto's office says he will have to wait until next week to do it, assuming he still has the title, as he has a match with the title on the line against King Cuerno, whom she says has been hunting him for a while. She then tells Fenix that Mil Muertes will be watching...literally, as he watches from a distance inside the temple.

King Cuerno beats Fenix to win the Lucha Underground Gift of the Gods Championship!

Angelico, a fully-healed Ivelisse and Son of Havoc return to the temple...

Angelico, Ivelisse and Son of Havoc meet up with Catarina. They want the Lucha Underground Trios Championships back, but they now have orders from Mil Muertes to fight each other tonight. Whoever wins the match faces Mil Muertes for the Lucha Underground Championship tonight...and that this match is up next. Ivelisse then tells Catarina that when she gets the title, she's coming for her. Back in the temple, Catarina heads to the arena and whispers something into ring announcer Melissa Santos' ear.

Catarina talks with King Cuerno in the back. She tells him they have a deal. King Cuerno says that she has nothing to worry about, and neither does Mil Muertes.

Ivelisse steals a win from Son of Havoc to beat both Son of Havoc and Angelico and become #1 contender to the Lucha Underground Championship.

A bunch of guys miles away from Boyle Heights run into Black Lotus. One of them asks about the temple. She asks them to come with her.

The Disciples of Death (Barrio Negro, El Siniestro de la Muerte and Terce) show up and fight both Angelico and Son of Havoc before the next match. Angelico and Son of Havoc are carried away as Ivelisse is left alone with Mil Muertes.

Mil Muertes retains the Lucha Underground Championship against Ivelisse, despite a valiant effort from the latter after Ivelisse tricked Mil Muertes into hitting Catarina with a Spear. Catarina deems her unworthy of the Kiss of Death, and orders Mil Muertes to attack her even more. Suddenly, Prince Puma returns and rescues Ivelisse from Mil Muertes' wrath. After that, Pentagon Jr. shows up, attacks Mil Muertes' from behind and breaks Mil Muertes' arm. El Vampiro is staring in awe as Pentagon Jr. is in the ring.

Black Lotus brings the three guys to the temple. Black Lotus attacks one of them for mouthing off and wondering why she is here. The three guys pay $20, then Cueto gives the key and closes the door behind them. Screams can be heard as Cueto counts the money, especially after one of them asks who's fighting and is told "You are."

Here are the highlights from tonight's show!
