Underground Sound - Lucha Underground recap for September 5, 2018

In Mil Muertes' shrine, Catrina tells Mil Muertes she is done with him and that she has her life back again after wasting it in the temple with him. She says they can rule the underworld together, but she never really loved Mil Muertes and the man she truly loved gave her freedom that she refuses to throw away. She then gives Mil Muertes to remember him by: the stone that she used to control him. As she leaves, she is confronted by Melissa Santos, and both women get into a fight. Mil Muertes looks at the stone as Melissa and Catrina continue to brawl. Catrina gets Melissa in an arm bar, and tells her that Fenix never really loved her, saying that Fenix gave her a thousand lives so that she could live again. Melissa says Fenix died Catrina, but Catrina will die for her. The brawl goes outside, and Catrina tries to choke Melissa out with the medallion, but Melissa fights back and sends Catrina flying back, forcing her to grab onto a pipe at the edge of the rooftop. Suddenly, Mil Muertes shows up, tells Melissa to leave, then helps Catrina up before putting the stone back in her hand. Catrina smiles as if she saw this coming, then Mil Muertes drops her. Afterwards, Melissa approaches Catrina's body as Aerostar, and when Melissa tells him she did not do this, Aerostar tells her he knows, and asks for her help by giving him the medallion in exchange for what her heart most desires. He absorbs the power of the stone used to control Mil Muertes, then tells her he will be back. We then go back ten weeks earlier, and see Catrina absorbing Fenix's life in order to revive herself. Aerostar goes back to that time after Catrina has left, and uses the power of the stone to revive Fenix, telling him to come with him. Aerostar then returns ten weeks forward to the present, this time with Fenix. Melissa hugs Fenix, who hugs her back. Aerostar tells Melissa that Fenix has been taken out of time, and that it will take a while for him to be the same again. Melissa says they have all the time in the world, and Melissa hands Aerostar the medallion, thanking him. Aerostar teleports away, and we see dots flying around in one of Fenix's eyes.

It is announced that Johnny Mundo is unable to face Pentagon Dark for the Lucha Underground Championship following the attack on him and Taya at the wedding last week from "The Monster" Matanza Cueto. It is also mentioned that Joey Wrestling is here tonight, and even though he is not contracted to be in the temple, he is here to night to get a modicum of revenge.

Melissa Santos is back as ring announcer this week.

Before the next match, Antonio Cueto says he has heard that Joey Wrestling was a little upset about his son "The Monster" Matanza Cueto crashing Johnny Mundo and Taya's wedding last week, and says that tonight, he will get a chance at revenge. Tonight, Joey will have his first-ever Lucha Underground match, and he wishes he had alerted the paparazzi as the headlines tomorrow would read "Joey Wrestling arrives in Lucha Underground and becomes the next sacrifice to the gods."

"The Monster" Matanza Cueto beats Joey Wrestling, then Joey Wrestling is sacrificed to the gods.

Killshot - now with a new look that involves tactical gear - beats Big Bad Steve. During the match, Son of Havoc shows up with a cup of soda and a bucket of popcorn to get a closer look at the match from the front row. After the match, the fans chant for Son of Havoc, and Killshot turns around on his way to the back and knocks the bucket of popcorn out of Son of Havoc's hands. This leads to a brawl between the two men, which ends with Son of Havoc ripping Killshot's mask off. Killshot runs to the back, completely covering his face with his hands.

Before the next match, Pentagon Dark says he wanted to give a wedding gift to Johnny Mundo and Taya: breaking Johnny MUndo's arm. However, the doctor won't let Mundo wrestle him tonight, which makes him sad, because tonight, he is in the mood to break some bones. He then issues an open challenge to "anyone in the back who has the balls to face [him] tonight" for the Lucha Underground Championship. That challenge is answered by Hernandez, who says that if Pentagon Dark wants anyone with balls, then he is the one with the biggest balls in the building. He says he would have been Lucha Underground Champion at Aztec Warfare if Pentagon Dark had not broken his arm, but Pentagon Dark tells him to go screw himself and get down to the ring. Hernandez says that if Pentagon Dark has the balls to face him, then the Lucha Underground Championship is coming home with him.

Pentagon Dark retains the Lucha Underground Championship against Hernandez. After the match, Pentagon Dark almost breaks Hernandez's arm again, but King Cuerno shows up and hits The Thrill Of The Kill on the Lucha Underground Championship to end the show.
