With those sort of conditions, Chavo wants Cueto to do something about Konnan and his cane. Dario decides that if Konnan gets involved, Chavo will automatically win the Lucha Underground title. Chavo declares that his destiny will be fulfilled tonight. We shall see!

In Dario Cueto’s office, Chavo Guerrero tells him that the Black Lotus has been trained by El Dragon Azteca. All of his family’s debt in Mexico will be forgiven if he protects her. However, it looks like Chavo is working on both sides here. A Guerrero is only truly loyal to the highest bidder. Cueto wants Black Lotus on a silver platter and starts stacking up money for Chavo. No cash, just around the clock protection from Mexico. Cueto grants him the request, but wants to know what Chavo really wants.

Your hosts are Matt Striker and Brother Vampiro.

AAA Mega Champion: Alberto El Patron (12/7/14)

Chavo Guerrero meets the Black Lotus before she walks into the Temple telling her he will be her protection. If she really wants revenge, do it in the ring where everybody can see it. Chavo continues on saying that his grandfather Gory Guerrero was there when her parents were killed. The Guerrero family hated the Cuetos as much as she does. It kind of takes the allure out of her character a little bit when she walks up to the building in just some street clothes.

Your hosts are Matt Striker and Brother Vampiro.

Over in Dario Cueto’s office, he and Alberto el Patron exchange niceties. Alberto asks about the key around Cueto’s neck, but Cueto immediately changes the subject and wants to know why Alberto is here. Alberto says he appreciates what the temple represents and tells Cueto he needs to get some things off his chest. If Cueto grants his request, this place will never be the same. The next time he comes through his office for anything, it will be for blood. The camera heads back into the arena when Alberto starts to tell Cueto what is on his mind.

Your hosts are Matt Striker and Brother Vampiro. Striker tells us that Alberto el Patron will have an open mic to talk about whatever is on his mind. Read the rest of this entry
