The show opens with highlights of previous episodes and storylines. The current Prince Puma-Mil Muertes rivalry…. Johnny Mundo’s frustration with Dario Cueto, in not granting him a world championship match and Killshot’s recent discovery at the hands of LAPD Detective Joey Ryan.

The opening scene takes place in the locker room of The Temple. Prince Puma is seated at his locker when Vampiro approaches him. Vamp tells Puma that he wishes him luck in his match with Muertes tonight. He offers Puma his services. Prince tells Vampiro that he wants nothing to do with him. Puma says that he doesn’t care if Mil Muertes is beating him lifeless tonight in front of Vampiro’s broadcast desk, that he doesn’t want Vampiro to help him. Puma states that he would rather die by Mil’s hands than live by Vampiro’s…. Before Puma can walk away. Vampiro stops him and predicts that Mil Muertes will die by Puma’s hands tonight. Puma growls at Vampiro and walks away.

Dario Cueto is inside the ring with Lucha Underground Champion, Matanza Cueto. Dario says that wherever the wheel lands, that opponent will get a world championship match with his brother. He spins the wheel and it lands on Killshot. Dario says that Killshot is an American hero and that he hopes, that he is ready for war tonight.

LUCHA UNDERGROUND CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

“The Monster” Matanza Cueto vs. Killshot

Killshot enters the ring selling injuries from his Weapons of Mass Destruction match with Marty The Moth a few weeks back. Killshot is heavily bandaged. Things don’t start well for him in this one. Matanza manhandles Killshot and flings him around the ring. Dominating the early action. Killshot fights back briefly by applying an arm bar submission but Matanza breaks out with a headbutt. Matanza then takes Killshot to Suplex city for awhile. Killshot eventually battles back briefly again but Matanza knocks him down. Takes him to the top rope and attempts to tombstone Killshot off of the top rope. Killshot breaks free and then hits several kicks on The Monster and then hits a hanging DDT on Matanza from the ropes. Killshot then goes to the top rope and rips off his bandages. He leaps but Matanza moves out of the way and then tackles Killshot. Matanza then hits The “Wrath of The Gods” finisher and pins him.

Matanza defeats Killshot by pinfall to retain The Lucha Underground Championship

As Matanza and Dario Cueto leave the ring. Killshot rises from the mat. The “believers” in The Temple give Killshot a nice response. As he is recovering, a mysterious man makes his way towards the ring. He is wearing similar army dog tags that Killshot has. The mysterious young man is clearly recognized by Killshot. He is shocked to see this young man in the ring with him. Treats him like he is a ghost. Starts to touch him to see if he is real and then reaches out and hugs him. The mysterious young man does not seem moved nor touched by Killshot’s actions. He breaks free of Killshot’s hug and then kicks him in the head. Knocking him down and then proceeds to pummel him on the ground. The Young man picks up Killshot and hits a brainbuster on him. He then stands over him, takes off his dog tags and drops them on Killshot’s body. He tells Killshot, “You left me for dead”… The same message, Killshot received from Joey Ryan earlier this season. He then gestures a killshot over his body, as the show goes to break.

When the show returns, Another “White Rabbit” vignette airs. The vignette shows a rabbit running through the woods while a man says, “We are coming”.
