Update On Lucha Underground Viewership

While it was previously reported that only 8,000 people watched the premiere episode of Lucha Underground, that was actually only for the 18-49 demographic. The Wrestling Observer‘s Dave Meltzer (via Wrestlezone) says the number was closer to between 18,000 and 20,000. This would make it the second most-watched program on El Rey last week.
The Spanish-only version aired on UniMas this past Saturday, which likely brought in hundreds of thousands of people. El Rey is a premium channel for most providers and the show’s promotion has been through the internet. Officials have been telling talent and backstage employees that they will be in wrestling for a long time, with 39 episodes guaranteed for the first season.
