New Promotion Featuring Lucha Underground Stars (Video), ROH Awards, Former Impact Champion Turns 34

- Above is the trailer for a new wrestling promotion, Aro Lucha, which looks to be taking more of a family fun approach with their product. In the trailer a number of Lucha Underground wrestlers are shown, including: Johnny Mundo, Willie Mack, and Taya Valkyrie. As noted, with the fourth season in play for Lucha Underground, wrestlers will be able to work for other televised promotions, when the company is not taping. Previously, wrestlers weren't able to do so until the Lucha Underground season wrapped up. With pilot TV tapings done earlier this month in Nashville, TN, Aro Lucha will run their first live events of 2018 on January 19 (Amarillo, Texas) and January 20 (Lubbock, Texas).
