Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for August 1, 2018

It is announced that as per Antonio Cueto, Pentagon Dark and Cage will be competing in tag team action for tonight's main event, and that each man will be picking their own tag team partners.

Daga beats "The Darewolf" PJ Black with a cruficix-wristlock combination. After the match, Kobra Moon calls for Dragon and Vibora, then all four of them stomp PJ Black. As Vibora goes for a Tombstone Piledriver, Johnny Mundo and Taya run in to make the save for PJ Black. Ricky Mundo shows up a little too late, and runs backwards in Vibora. He slaps Vibora in the chest, but Vibora headbutts him. PJ Black gets some Kendo sticks, then hits Vibora with them before Mundo and Black take one Kendo stick each and whack Vibora out of the ring. Afterwards, the Reptile Tribe (Kobra Moon, Drago, Vibora, Daga) retreats, and Kobra Moon tells Johnny Mundo that the Reptile Tribe is in his future and that he must either accept or perish. Johnny Mundo tells Kobra Moon that if she wants her so badly, all she has to do is head to the ring and take her. Kobra Moon then decrees that next week, The Reptile Tribe will fight The Worldwide Underground (Johnny Mundo, Taya, Jack Evans, PJ Black, Ricky Mundo) four-on-four, and when they win, Mundo will pledge allegiance to her and he will bow to her for the rest of her days. Mundo asks what happens if The Worldwide Underground wins, then they can grant any wish his heart desires. Kobra Moon then warns Mundo that The Reptile Tribe will not lose. Mundo says next week, both teams win something: Mundo gets his wish while The Reptile Tribe wins a first-class ticket to Slamtown. Kobra Moon tells Mundo to enjoy his freedom, for next week, Mundo is hers.

In the locker room, The Mack gets ready for a match when Catrina shows up and tells him that he crossed Mil Muertes, who will not forget or relent and will come after him. The Mack tells Catrina to tell Mil Muertes to back off before he drops him on his head. Catrina then tells The Mack that death swirls around him and to breathe it in, for his cousin certainly did. She then punches a locker open, and inside is the skull of Big Ryck (who has not been seen since Season 1) complete with a cigar and an eye patch.

El Dragon Azteca Jr. is in the ring. He says last week may have been the most difficult fight of his career, but it led to one of his proudest moments in his career: winning the Gift of the Gods Championship, which guarantees him a title match for the Lucha Underground Championship, which he plans to win. He goes on to say that he would be dishonoring his ancestors and his mask if he does not fight and win the title, as his tribe, the Eagle Tribe, was the most legendary of all seven Aztec tribes. He wants the name of El Dragon Azteca, Jr. to become part of that legacy. While it is a long way off until Ultima Lucha, he will defend the title against anyone who thinks they can take it from him until then, and he will not back down from any fight. He says the only way he will take off the belt is when he exchanges it for a title shot at the Lucha Underground Championship at Ultima Lucha Cuatro, and says that this one is for the fans.

The Mack, Killshot and Son of Havoc retain the Lucha Underground Trios Championships against The Rabbit Tribe (Paul London, Saltador, Mala Suerte), though it is still apparent after the match that Killshot is on less than good terms with The Mack and Son of Havoc.

Before the next match, Cage says that when Antonio Cueto told him he could ;ick his own partner for the next match, he knew he had to be a cold-blooded killer, and that man is King Cuerno. When Pentagon Jr. shows up, he reminds King Cuerno that he is in his temple and that he does not need anyone. He says he can take both men on himself, and tonight, his sacred temple will bear witness to how he will break both of them in half.

Cage and King Cuerno beat Pentagon Jr. in a tag team match turned two-on-one handicap match after Cage dismisses King Cuerno from the match before hitting the Drill Claw for the win. After the match, Cage pulls some steel chairs out from underneath the ring, then lays Pentagon Dark's head on top of one steel chair before smacking another one into the back of his head. After doing this a second time, Cage lifts up the Lucha Underground Championship in one of the corners of the ring.

Somewhere in the desert, Johnny Mundo and Taya find what is supposedly the lair of the Reptile Tribe (Kobra Moon, Drago, Vibora, Daga) in a scene that looks like something out of an Indiana Jones movie. They find the golden throne, but they also find Drago and Vibora. vibora superkicks Taya, and while Johnny Mundo throws a few punches, Vibora catches a punch and headbutts him before putting him in a sleeper hold. Johnny's eyes are about to roll into the back of his head when Taya comes to, grabs a baseball bat and smacks it into the back of Vibora's leg and kicking Vibora in the back of the head. Johnny and Taya kiss before cutting Vibora's head off with a sword.Johnny and Taya leave, then Johnny Mundo tells Drago that they were never hear. Drago roars upon seeing Vibora's decapitated head, and the show ends.
