Nobody expected him to cash in the ‘Gift of the Gods’ Championship on Pentagon Dark on the very week that he won it and become the Lucha Underground Champion in the action-packed fourth season of the show.

Lucha Underground has changed for good, with Marty The Moth as the face of the promotion. Things will only get darker, grittier and most likely, become a lot more entertaining from hereon.
