Seriously, it makes me sick sometimes that American fans have no clue as to how huge lucha libre is in Mexico and South America. La Parka??

El Santo is a fuckin' god. Not only did he make smovies, but he was buried in his mask. And his son is almost as huge.

Mil Mascaras was almost as big. And is actually better known than Santo internationally because of the many successful tours he had outside Mexico, winning titles in the US and Japan.

In all seriousness, the discussion as to who were the best masked wrestlers pretty much has ot begin with those two.
