3 more Lucha Underground wrestlers have obtained legal counsel in order to obtain releases from the promotion. According to a report from LuchaCentral.com, Jeff Cobb, Sonny Kiss, and Famous B are all seeking releases from their Lucha Underground contracts.

“Lucha Central has learned that LU performers Matanza Cueto (Ring of Honor star Jeff Cobb), Famous B and XO Lishus (All Elite Wrestling’s Sonny Kiss) have all sought legal representation in order to get their release from the promotion.”

Jeff Cobb signed a 1-year deal with Ring of Honor last year. Despite this, it appears Cobb is still not free and clear of his Lucha Underground contract either. The report continues to say that LU has attempted to prevent Cobb from working with Ring of Honor.

Sonny Kiss is scheduled to be in the Over the Budget Battle Royale at Double or Nothing.

Famous B just finished up a Lucha Downunderground tour in Australia with Battle Championship Wrestling. Mil Muertes, Catrina, Chavo Guerrero, Aerostar, Drago, and PJ Black were also on the tour.

Additionally, it is being reported that Willie Mack could be added to the list of LU wrestlers seeking releases from their contracts. Evidently, a Cease and Desist was sent to the NWA for their use of Mack, who was formerly the NWA National Heavyweight Champion (he dropped the belt to Colt Cabana this weekend).
