The Undisputed Lucha Libre Discussion Thread

[Roadster]

Other threads are old, so this is the undisputed, definitive Lucha discussion thread.

IWRG and Crash really going mo bamba. They've been holding underground shows with no COVID restrictions, mask mandates or anything for the past few months. A Crash show got (no pun intended) crashed too by police.

Big CMLL show this upcoming Saturday. Super hyped for Volador Jr. vs Bandido.

Some big names were at a march in Mexico DF to allow for small capacity crowds to attend wrestling shows. Fantasma was one of the headline speakers, and announced that he was told it's possible that lucha shows will be granted limited capacity crowds to enter. Guerrero Maja Jr and Ephesto were there too from CMLL.

Marvel Lucha return at these past AutoLuchas. It might've just been a regular taping tbh, I didn't watch it because AAA is awful atm.

Bandido v Volador delivered on the hype. 4.6/5 for me, finish was a bit weak and maybe too many false finishes but overall the match was great. The PPV itself was great too, all the matches were good, nothing that was too boring. Felino Jr/Felino/Negro Casas family feud angle was interesting in the Copa Jr VIP also NGD winning the Trios titles was a bit of a shocker.

Next show is the 65th anniversary.

AAA is giving Lio Rush the phantom champ treatment. They're just ignoring he won the title despite posting about it on their social media lol.

Maybe the other 2 older Lucha threads should be merged into this one?

I'd recommend just linking to them in the OP honestly, so as to not make things look messy within this thread.

Bandido announced against Psycho Clown. Looks like he's done with CMLL, but then again he might cancel to keep in CMLL's good graces, wouldn't be the first time.

I agree. @E.A. Roadster can you edit it with the links? I feel that'd be better than editing your post for you.
(let me know if I typed that mention incorrectly, please.)

Bandido officially fired by CMLL. It's being reported he was never under contract in the first place.

Andrade debuted in AAA, and challenged Omega to a match at Triplemania.

Triplemania card is official, and it's going to be free btw. CMLL is moving towards having more of their shows on Twitch now too. Lucha finally catching up with the 21st century.
