has anyone feel the shift that for the longest time (around 20+ years) that smarks only gave a damn about japanese wrestling while only a handful of the nichest of niche fans were kept in their super secret lucha club. But now ever since the pandemic puroresu sentiment is the weakest amongst the smarks ever and many of them have started to discover and cover lucha libre now. Japanese wrestling is finally dead and tbqh it is deserved. Their matches have been the same for 30 years
the internet allowed more people to be exposed to things that they otherwise wouldn't have, comes with the territory
I refuse to watch lucha because I don't like Mexicans.

>>19435117Same, same as I won't watch clips from that mud league in Africa that sometimes gets posted around here.

>>19435095It's more so that Mexico just took forever in making their product viably watchable in outside markets. Shit there's basically no footage prior to the 90s other than a couple of bootlegs because the shit used to be banned on television in Mexico. You literally HAD to go to the shows the know what was going on for the longest time, and it's still like this today in some non-insignificant fashion.The Japs were significantly better about tape trading and then streaming it when the resources got there.
