Apologies my point was all wrestling fans 'us'. Myself included, not USA fans are impatient . My point is there may be spoilers but due to the negative publicity LU is creating it is surely better we reserve judgement until the product is televised. Like we do with other tv shows, Hollywood movies. There may have been spoilers / reports of cast fall outs / salary disputes / storyline spoilers for episodes of say breaking bad but the final televised product was superb! 'us' wrestling fans should hold restraint a little more rather than paying early judgement. Just an opinion as LU may turn out to be a disorganised car crash tv failure lol

LU's debut supposedly has been delayed for 3 weeks from October 8 to October 29. That would mean the airings are going to be 11 shows behind the filming as the 1st episode is 2 hours long.
All that talk about them LU concerned about spoilers I do not believe applies anymore. My impression is that the staff is not actively telling people to keep quiet. Besides, there is not much that the public can "spoil" anyway. All the live audience sees is the matches. Taped promos or other skits are not seen. Hell, there is not even a replay screen anywhere in the building. Hence, all the people going to the tapings can say is who won & loss which means nothing if you are unaware of the storylines.
I do agree though that it is hard to say how good or bad LU is without actually seeing the finished product.

fuck me, they are going with the evil promoter/owner gimmick.
Will somebody please do something different for once. It's been evil promoters/owner for 16 years straight. I'm begging for something else.

Having a heel promoter has been known for awhile. How big of an onscreen role he plays is yet to be determined though. I suspect he was there in the trailer because not too many of the other talent can cut good English promos.
Only recently did LU crown a champion, so there are going to be a number of early episodes without one. They had a tournament to crown a champ, but I am not sure how many episodes contained actual tournament matches. LU is going to be as bad as TNA as everything is taped so far in advanced that it is hard for the live audience to understand the storyline (if they are even told anything).

Lucha Underground apparently yanked Ricochet from some upcoming Europe shows where he was scheduled to face Okada one one of them.
Fuck you Lucha Underground. You just made my shit list.

Lame.
I hope that means he's getting paid well by them, though.

non Lucha Underground related, but Ricochet related:
My PWG 2014 Battle of Los Angeles dvd's came today. Fuck yes. Just starting them now. So pumped for this. 9 hours of great wrestling. Which is more than the WWE has put out in all of 2014.
