Lucha Talk

Lucha Talk is back, talking the biggest show of the year in AAA! A bunch of foreigners get belts, interference in nearly every match, the revelation of the "Eye", a man escapes a cage via balloons and double Psicosis! Triplemania México City! At the end we also talk a little bit about CMLL with the Gran Prix lineups and the two match announcements for Aniversario 91. Weird times in Lucha.

Lucha Talk returns with Dylan & Micro talking TripleMania Tijuana which was somehow less of a horror show than April's AAA offering. Jumping to CMLL we go over a number of things, largely focused on La Copa Jr. VIP & Mistico vs. Magnus, Panther vs. Hechicero with a bit of talk about FantasticaMania Mexico. Finally, Micro went to a couple of shows live in our time off! We talk about Zeuxis vs. Mercedes in AEW & his visit to MLW.

We close the show talking about AAA for some reason, and sp...

Lucha Talk is back, get ready for the Clone Wars! AAA had their Rey de Reyes, one of their biggest shows of the year.

LUCHA TALK IS BACK. Dylan & Microman Fever have returned to the mic and are back covering Lucha all over Mexico and then all over the Globe. If there was a grade to give, the big companies get an A and an F, and IWRG & the indies as a whole get an I for incomplete for what's been going on. We talk about the best of the whole year in both promotions and hang out talking about some issues with AAA. We then bring it in to talk about t...

Dylan and Micro are back talking CMLL's Aniversario Show we watched live, which also features one of the best matches of the whole year and one of the most emotional endings!

Follow us, talk to u...

Then we talk about the big spots Luchadores have gotten internationally lately and how they're used. Examples being...

The Trio makes a return in the tough times of today, going over some bad news and good news and even traditional goofy news at times near the end. First we break down the recent accusations going around against Blue Demon Jr. and the horrific ones going against "son & daughter" of Sangre Chicana, then we somehow get to AAA and offer a little of the lawsuit with Lucha Libre FMV preventing growth outside of México (for now). Then we ...

Lucha Talk is talking what once looked like an unlikely show at one point that ended up not only happening but ended up being good with 2 great matches to close the show out in TripleMania XXVIII! We run through the entire card, what's been going on in AAA that led up to it in this weird time period with a lack of Lucha and suddenly Micro states his displeasure not only with Molotov, but their fans on top of it while Dylan asserts ...

Today we end up looking at the the second part of the CMLL boom of the late 2000s, going through Místico's historic run all the way to his departure to WWE in 2011.

Who was the original plan to be the next big star instead of Místico? How great was Perro Aguayo Jr.? What about the big stars at the time who w...

Hola, mis amigos y amigas. The Trio is back talking a classic and fondly remembered show in Lucha Libre history, the one that started it all for Lucha fans. AAA's When Worlds Collide!

We talk a bit about the buildup to the show and why it happened, plus why it's NOT available on the WWE N...

Lucha Talk is back with a show completely about a singular Luchador and someone highly influential to this day as a worldwide star. On this show Dylan, Alfredo, & Micro talk about Manny Alfonso Andrade Oropeza, known currently in WWE as Andrade, but before his leaving to WWE, we give a full breakdown of who Lucha fans know him best as: La Sombra.
