Lucha Television Info

I don't know if it really qualifies as lucha libre, but there is now a show called "100% Lucha" on Teléfe Internacional from Argentina. It features absurd GLOW-like gimmicks (surfer, delivery boy, pharaoh, ninja, Scottish Highlander, snake, chiropractor) on luchadores that are supposed to be from different parts of the world (Cairo, Milan, Chicago, Istanbul, etc.). The wrestling is vaguely lucha libre-style when it has any style at all. --DaClyde 19:54, 26 Mar 2006 (CST)

It would appear that "100% Lucha" is the successor to previous Argentine lucha libre shows "Titanes en el Ring" and "Lucha Fuerte" from the 1980s. Twenty years later, it even features some of the same talent.--DaClyde 09:24, 29 March 2006 (CST)

Added to the list. Thanks! --thecubsfan 15:07, 31 March 2006 (CST)

Greetings, I just wanted to say this is a great site! I've been working on a similar project for proffessional wrestling in general. You can find my webpage at www.smashmania.com. Good luck with everything! -- Smashmania 10:20 20 April 2006 (EST)

CHIKARA?

I'm not totally sure if this really IS lucha libre, but there's this small indy in Pennsylvania that's lucha libre-influenced called CHIKARA. Would this count, and if so, would I be allowed to write an article on it? Pyroflame 16:34, 18 April 2007 (EDT)

We've discussed this sort of thing internally back when we were setting up the site (and I wish I had those e-mails in front of me at the moment.) I can see the value of adding of CHIKARA as a promotion page, because we've got enough eligible bios of guys who've worked in Mexico and for that group (Mike Quackenbush, Skayde, Chris Hero) that you could make a case for a category of people who have worked there.

The problem is doing a CHIKARA page would seem to open the door for people to post bios of everyone's who ever worked for that promotion once and, by extension, eventually every US indy wrestler ever. It wouldn't actually open that door, because I'd be removing those pages as soon as I see 'em, but then we'd have other people wasting time making pages (new people to ignore the rules) and me wasting time deleting them, all for one promotion's page.

It'd be nice if there was a way to add CHIKARA without causing issues, but I don't see one right now. --thecubsfan 11:03, 19 April 2007 (EDT)
