The last of a dying breed.
“The fake wrestling with the WWF is for script. The Mexican wrestling is real, is improvised.” - Blue Demon Jr. in Viva Lucha Libre documentary
Love that quote. And Patton Oswalt is in this film talking about minis. I’m seeing this.
The Bane of CMLL
It looks like Mephisto has gone through a gimmick change in the last month down in CMLL. He’s dropped the spiked demon mask in favor of a more topical Batman-related attire. This is actually pretty cool. I don’t know how long he can last before getting sued by DC and WB (not that Mexico cares), but if he can hold onto this gimmick and adopt a backbreaker as a finisher, I can see this being pretty awesome.
