EVW on the #LuchaUnderground endgame "The bigger goal for us is to create super heroes - we'd much rather be the Avengers than WrestleMania. Our end game is movies, animated series, comic books, cartoons - it's all the stuff, the Marvel world. So, we create a Marvel world, the Marvel cliffhangers, the sort of Marvel superheroes where women are just as tough as the men, and there are people with some special powers, and Mil Muertes defies death and he's sort of come back to life now, and Fenix who has a 1000 lives. We're slowly treading into the super natural, we're treading into a very science fiction/comic book world. We started with a magna which was written by one of Robert Rodriguez's writers, where he created some of the characters, and Son of Havoc was one of those characters. We've evolved those characters, you know, if you were to look at the original magna, Mil Muertes was in, Prince Puma was in it - there's a whole bunch more that were in that are still coming that we're going to be introducing in season 2 - but some of them come from super natural roots, and we base it on a lot of research that has been done by this PHD named Carl Tolb (sp?) who was a consultant for us early, who studied ancient Mesoamerican tribes. It's in the realm of fantasy, but it's based in historic research."
