Ivelisse Says She’s Being Legally Held Hostage By Lucha Underground

Lucha Underground wrestler Ivelisse says she’s been fighting to get out of her contract for over a year and now feels like she’s being “legally held hostage.”


Ivelisse released a statement via social media saying:

l’ve done everything in my power to avoid having to do this but.. at this point I literally have no other choice.. For a bit over 1 1/2 [years] now l’ve been battling LU to grant me my release. They convinced me to do S4 under the promise that I’d be released after the season concluded and was still unhappy. They currently are still refusing to do so despite having been told numerous times that they would. This has caused me an unbearable amount of grief for so long now, I really have no words to describe and don’t know what else to do.. being legally held hostage while Pro Wrestling is booming is a matter not to be taken lightly, especially coming from someone who has dedicated their life to their work, its everything to me. I am at my wits end, so at this point, regardless what happens from here on out, at the very least my story is told.

As we previously reported, sources tell us there hasn’t been a lot communication between MGM and Lucha Underground execs in regards to an additional season. We’re told things are currently in a stalemate because both sides are standing firm on what the budget needs to be.

We’ve reached out to a Lucha Underground representative for comment.

Opinionated View- I remember when LU started hearing there contract were like for 7 years. Now I know guys Johnny, Taya, and Pentagon are able to work for places like Impact. So I wonder if her deal is different somehow. Or is that she wants to go to WWE or AEW or ROH some where with exclusive? But I can also get why if you have no idea when the next season is coming if ever and you just have to wait and wait and wait. Could it be LU feels lost to much talent and thus now want to hold onto Ivelisse.
