In an update on plans for season two of Lucha Underground on the El Rey Network in early 2016, a report from The Wrestling Observer notes that production is expected to start back up in December, with pre-production being done some time before December as some characters will be brought in for promo work and vignettes and that the promotion will return to The Temple in Los Angeles, California for filming, the same venue from season one and that the promotion will not be taping as many episodes for season two as they did for the 39 episodes in the first season.

The report notes that the budget for each episode will be decreased from last season’s $400,000 per episode, but that the changes made due to the budget cut won’t be noticeable and that there was talk about moving some of, if not all of the tapings to either Texas or a location in Mexico due to costs, however they will be staying in Los Angeles. The report also notes that there have been rumblings of a Lucha Underground TV deal being worked out in Mexico as officials had been in talks with Telavisa Channel 5 and that if they were to come to some sort of a deal, that would give the promotion great financial assistance for the second season and give them a lot more exposure in Mexico than the likes of AAA, CMLL and even the WWE.
