— While it was previously reported that only 8,000 people watched the
premiere episode of Lucha Underground, that was actually only for the 18-49
demographic. The
number was closer to between 18,000 and 20,000. This would make it the second
most-watched program on El Rey last week.
The Spanish-only version aired on UniMas this past Saturday, which likely
brought in hundreds of thousands of people. El Rey is a premium channel for most
providers and the show’s promotion has been through the internet. Officials have
been telling talent and backstage employees that they will be in wrestling for a
long time, with 39 episodes guaranteed for the first season.
— Here is the latest episode of TNA’s “British Boot Camp Breakdown”, which
features Christy Hemme and Rockstar Spud talking about the third episode of the
series. They’re joined by Rebel and Alex Levine from Gaslight Anthem.
