– We reported last night that Lucha Underground star Hernandez returned to TNA Wrestling last night at the Impact tapings. Hernandez pulled a bit of a “Rick Rude,” as he appeared on both Impact and Lucha Underground broadcasts.
It’s believed that Hernandez gained his release from the company, and that he had felt there was a breach in the deal. As we said last night, Wrestling Observer Newsletter had reported that BDC leader MVP had been trying to recruit Hernandez of late to fill Samoa Joe’s role.
Hernandez has also taped several episodes of Lucha Underground, that will likely continue airing through August. We’ll be seeing him appearing on both shows on and off until that point. Hernandez had also been working for All Elite in Mexico, which is competition to AAA in Mexico.
– Another issue for Lucha Underground has been that many of their talents are frustrated with the company, according to Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Many talents have been asking about a second season for months and haven’t received any word. When we spoke to King Cuerno last month, he confirmed the news to us.
Many of the talents don’t want to book shows at a certain point on the off-chance that the second season is announced and they have to do those tapings.
