    Lucha Talk #164: CMLL Homenaje a Dos Leyendas - AEW In Arena Mexico - More Bryan!

    Lucha Talk #164: CMLL Homenaje a Dos Leyendas - AEW In Arena Mexico - More Bryan!

    Lucha Talk is back and you know what we're talking about, AEW has arrived in Arena México! We talk about Dos Leyendas, the amazing crowd reaction to many of the new viewers who gave CMLL a chance and how hot the company feud has been. In addition we go over the followup, the Super Viernes show this Friday featuring the big time main event, Bryan Danielson vs. Blue Panther! We close the show talking about AAA for some reason, and speculate what the good people of Monterrey did to deserve the card AAA has presented them for their "TripleMania".
    Talk Lucha with us! Check us out.

    Lucha Talk #163: AAA Rey de Reyes, Clones, Vikingo Injury, CMLL/AEW Unite!

    Lucha Talk is back, get ready for the Clone Wars! AAA had their Rey de Reyes, one of their biggest shows of the year. Things aren't great as they have multiple re-gimmkck-ings on the table as well as a terrible injury to Hijo del Vikingo, their MEGA Champion. We talk about all of their many issues and then take a turn to greener pastures, CMLL! We talk about their torneo de escuelas, a showcase for the "newer" talents of CMLL and how this year compared to last. We talk about and give a full preview of Homenaje Dos Leyendas which is main evented by AEW talents! Which leads into the discussion of the CMLL/AEW relationship and how the Luchadores have been used so far on their TV (Spoiler: We like it) as well as potentially the future of the relationship. We close out with a bit of talk on Trauma I & Wotan and Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. winning the GHC Heavyweight Title in NOAH, the first ever Méxican GHC Heavyweight Champion!
    Check us out on X (FKA Twitter) and let us know all about any topics, but of course most importantly Lucha Libre and bug Fredo about him being spoiled with Ohtani to the Dodgers!

    Lucha Talk #162: 2023 Lucha Libre Review

    Lucha Talk #162: 2023 Lucha Libre Review

    LUCHA TALK IS BACK. Dylan & Microman Fever have returned to the mic and are back covering Lucha all over Mexico and then all over the Globe. If there was a grade to give, the big companies get an A and an F, and IWRG & the indies as a whole get an I for incomplete for what's been going on. We talk about the best of the whole year in both promotions and hang out talking about some issues with AAA. We then bring it in to talk about the impact Lucha's made on the worldwide stages in 2023, with some focus on AEW's usage of Luchadores, to WWE and how they've handled Dragon Lee this year, all the way to NJPW and the FantasticaMania lineup coming up next month. It's good to be back, and good to kick off 2024 right in this laid back look at Lucha Libre and our hopes for the new year.
