Hernandez to Sue Lucha Underground?

Lucha Underground’s Hernandez troubles are not yet over. The WON reports that Hernandez is threatening to file a lawsuit against the promotion, claiming that they are providing an unsafe working environment.

Hernandez was at the center of a big story over the summer, when he told TNA officials he wasn’t under contract with Lucha Undergound and signed a new deal. Lucha Undergound’s second season had not yet been finalized, but Hernandez was in fact still under contract to the AAA-affiliated promotion and they sent TNA a legal letter. The move forced TNA to release Hernandez and re-edit several episodes of Impact that had been shot in order to cut him out, a difficult prospect because he was part of the BDC which was central to many storylines.

The whole fiasco ultimately led to MVP leaving TNA two days after Hernandez was released, and Kenny King was forced to be off television for two months due to the re-editing. He ended back leaving and going back to Ring of Honor while Homicide was also released. Hernandez was also released by Lucha Underground in September, after the whole incident was resolved.
