I said it had its flaws, got pretty dumb/bad by the end but that takes away from enjoying it at all when it was good? Sometimes I don’t understand your takes. Homie said it was the best fed in the last 15 years, that's insane given what ROH and AEW have given us in the same time frame I’m one of the biggest AEW fans in this thread but they at their best are not as good as LU was at its best. ROH I didn’t really watch but from what I know of the history most do the guys anyone watched for (Steen, Generico, Hero, Claudio, Punk, Bryan, etc) were gone by like 2011 so my statement stands even though you argued against a point I wasn’t even making. |

obligatory post whenever LU is mentioned such a crazy match This was probably the best match and feud of the entire promotion. Even better than Puma/Mil Meurtes or Fenix/Pentagon. |

Lastly, AEW wasted him but god Angelico was such a fucking psychopath in LU:

PWG is the best fed of the 21st century. They straight up had no bad shows from late 2009 to like sometime in late 2015.

If we going the past 15 years I'm picking NJPW. That stretch from like 2012 to 2019 was absolutely fucking ridiculous with insane matches, huge moments, great stories. Pandemic really hurt em but I still really enjoy the product
Absolutely loved Lucha Underground though, wish it was still a thing. So many nutty stories but it all worked somehow. Even Matt Striker was tolerable there.

LU was so bad by the end, you dudes got real rose colored glasses about that thing Literally only the final season was bad and that’s because they shoved fucking Jack Swagger down everyone’s throat. Every other season was a 10/10. you are not convincing me you were into the 1000 year old woman and the "monster" locked in a cage in the office, i'm sorry |

In fairness I did specify US promotion because I know a shade more than dick about NJPW beyond the big names and a few matches he seen here and there.
PWG I admittedly forgot about but I’ve also never seen a full PWG match because only being able to see things on DVD months after they happen is dumb.

Yeah I actually loved that shit. Johnny chopping Luchasaurus' head off with a sword was so awesome. Matanza eating people was also great

Well that was pretty fucking weird to show. Just odd segment.
I liked Cash wearing a Bart Simpson shirt and calling the bucks Rod and Todd Flanders

So Jack Perry ran off at the mouth, Punk slapped him (?), pushed him down, Jack Perry tried to shoot on Punk, Punk looks like he’s trying to cinch in a guillotine, Joe and people break it up
Edit: I wen't back and listened to punk’s interview with Ariel and never once did he ever say Jack Perry swung first.

So the dude who was fired with prejudice and has been out of the company for eight months is more over than the literal founders of the company. Good job.
