>The only lucha footage we have until the mid-80's is from Japan's "World Pro Wrestling" tv show and whatever clips were shown in movies. There's absolutely nothing else as Mexico banned lucha from TV until the late 80's. And even worse, CMLL and AAA didn't really even start to own their footage until this millennium. CMLL doesn't even air their Saturday, Sunday and Monday shows and AAA really only does tv tapings.>We really just have information from magazines which started in the 50's and then there were a bunch of magazines from the 70's until the 90's. There's all kinds of lucha promotions, towns, wrestlers and histories we know absolutely nothing about. Even today, we probably still don't know a lot of the smaller promotions and wrestlers.Jesus fucking Christ.
