Wrestlers have been known to use the gimmicks of the main characters from this cartoon. Those pictured wrestled in Arena Coliseo Monterrey. Others using the same name have been spotted around Mexico, most notably in Martha Villalobos's AAA affiliated promotion.
As with other gimmicks borrowed from other medium (see: Batman), many people have used these characters (and others from the show) since the show premiered and it's not clear who's using it on a day to day basis.
