Lucha sucks, it's not even good super hero storytelling, it's just mindless stunts for braindead monkey retards pissing themselves drunk.

So we've seen things like Luchador, Luchador Jr., El Hijo de Luchador, and Mini Luchador. Has there ever been an instance of a big beefy guy being booked as "Luchador Grande" or is it all diminutives?

and that is not even counting indie lucha.

A million Parkitas and Mascaritas

Lucha was fine when it was consigned to low IQ beaners but it bleeding stylistically into america and japan has been disastrous

Being the son of a famous wrestler gets you more attention and bookings. But not every wrestler has kids who want to wrestle and not every wrestler has a famous dad. So some wrestlers rent their names to other wrestlers for money. Because everyone wears masks, there's really no way for the average person to know. Because this happens so much, the average fan has caught on and it doesn't work as well as it used to.

Blue Demon Jr. is maybe not even be the adopted son of Blue Demon, just someone who bought the name. He even had some kind of spat with Demon Sr.'s family. He has a Blue Demon III and another person under the Blue Demon mask. It's unknown if they are renting the name or are actually related.

Parka's situation is a bit more easy to understand - AAA owned the gimmick and he left, so they made a new one and he had to change his name. Mistico was in the same situation, but there was also another Mistico when he was given the gimmick which made things fun.

With Axel, Hijo del Santo basically got full rights to the El Santo name and gimmick. He supposedly wanted his own son to someday take the name, which he did, and that's why he didn't want Axel using it. His son isn't very good though and isn't that interested in being a full time wrestler. Axel and Hijo also don't get along which is part of the issue.

I have no idea what the lucha commission really does except make people jump through extra hoops and collect money.

Yeah it's pretty wild. I find pleasure in imagining that the ancient Aztec civilizations probably ran exactly like that too.
