Promo: Choices II

Oh, yeah.  The Masked Man wore a mask.  Obviously.

 

Also, dude, we've had two Mexican/lucha-ish wrestlers in the whole history of the fed.  El Luchadore Magnifico (And he's a silly man that added an 'e' to the end of luchador for some unknown reason) and El Loco Hombre who sucked.

Yeah, I had it spelled incorrectly for about a year and a half into my career.

Indeed. Bo should give it a shot and see how it goes. I'd recommend at least that to anyone, because the worst that happens is you don't dig it and leave again.

 

Also, as a Spaniard, Landon Maddix is semi-lucha. I actually tried to draw a little of the character from ELM when I joined up (ie, I stole the idea of a Spanish influenced luchadore style wrestler with a foriegn sounding nickname).

Now THAT is funny

 

I guess I've just got a thing for masks - well at least I can face Ghost Machine and get some "mask psychology" in

[JJ Johnson 0]

Bruce, you list all of those masked guys...and you don't say Vader or Mankind? Or Chainsaw Charlie, which was an awful gimmick, but was Terry Funk?

 

 

 

And I realize Charlie's "mask" was not so much a mask as it was a pair of pantyhose pulled over his head, but whatever.

I forgot about Xstasy as eXodus. Or eXcalibur, or whatever.

[Golgo 13 0]

Sigil had a mask, but he's barely worth mentioning. There was also Beezel and Atlas.

...who are also barely worth mentioning.

Well my list wasn't supposed to be comprehensive listing of all masked men

 

but Mankind is another good example of the mask adding to the character.

 

Vader's leather jockstrap always made me giggle a little (the helmet was bad ass though! Not enough steam emitting helmets in wrestling any more)

[Rawknight 0]

What about Va'aiga's phantom of the opera noseguard mask? Does that count?

 

[Angel_Grace_Blue 0]

No
