[[Super Muñeco]] was a journeyman wrestler working as Sanguinario Jr. (no relation to the Sanguinario that died in 2002) and other names, who switched to Super Muñeco in the early 80s. When in the late 80s he was found by Ben Mora Jr., who at the time ran the Baja California area (Tijuana) and had just bought the "Lucha Libre" magazine from Valente Perez, he was given a big push right away. Just to put things into perspective, "Lucha Libre" was the magazine that 'created' characters like Mil Mascaras and Tinieblas, and it was pretty much like a Mexican Apter Mag, putting on the cover the "cool" guys they liked like Dos Caras, Canek, etc., so being featured on covers with Santo Jr. or Atlantis helped.
On November 9, 1953, [[Dientes Hernández]] had a 20th Anniversary from his debut show, which was a mixed show where there was matches of diferent disciplines. He was featured in three of them, a jujutsu bout, a greco-roman wrestling bout, and a lucha libre match, where he beat [[Profesor Avendaño]], [[Chico Veloz]] and [[Pedro Bolaños]] respectively. As a curiosity, the main event for that card was [[Enrique Llanes]] and [[Black Shadow]] beating [[El Santo]] and [[Cavernario Galindo]], and after the matches Dientes had a big party and Manuel Muñoz, who was the president of the Mexico City Box y Lucha commission, gave him a medal.
 
At first he was really resented and many old-schoolers would semi-shoot on him (they would work really stiff on him, potato him, etc. every night) because they hated to be selling for a clown, but eventually he proved himself as a good worker (back then he was sort of good) and good draw, so they all loved working with him.

Recent Additions

Pages of note which have been added or adjusted in the last few days include many biographies which have been updated to include the wrestler's lucha de apuesta records - the hair and mask matches they were invovled in. All biographies have been updated.

Articles Worth Reading

A favorite page from La Arena, the Lucha Dictionary has been added to the wiki. Also, we've started a page with information of when/where you can watch lucha in different parts of the world - please add any additional information you might have.

Categories of Articles

Wrestlers are sorted into those born in Mexico, and those born elsewhere, broken down even more by various individual countries. There's also bio listings for Mini Estrellas, Female Wrestlers and Referees.

More categories will be added soon, as well as a table of contents. If there's someone or something you're looking for but just can't seem to find, try the search box on the left side.
