Would you like to see some luchadors introduced to TNA? I certainly would, they're always interesting characters at first glance (far better than generically named, plain tights and boots wrestlers), and I feel like they could liven up the X Division. There's plenty of good, young luchadors in Mexico, I think TNA should give some a chance to show what they can do to the American audience.

I would. We got a sample of them in the World Xcup tournament. They always got the loudest pops.

It was Ultimo Guerrero and Rey Bucanero. Im sure TNA could poach some of the younger guys that aren't stars yet.
Now would be a good time for it. That division does seem dead.

The downside with them is that they can't speak english, and to get over in US you have to talk. Thats part why Sin Cara has failed and why he isnt at Rey's level. There are very few that can speak english.

You mean like this guy?

TNA are doing a World X Cup PPV this year so you might get your wish OP.

Hell yes I loved watching them doing there stuff in WCW I would love to see the same kind of style in TNA

I love the World X Cup. It was one of there best ideas. I am guessing thats going to be a "one night only".

And to answer the question, I am a big fan of Luchadores.

Considering the announced changes your wish will be fulfilled. They've been working loosely with AAA anyway so they might as well bring in some luchadores.

El Hijo de LA Park, Dragon Rojo Jr, Los Psycho Circus (more for outrageous gimmick than in-ring ability) are all good luchadors in their 20s, unexposed to the American market. I hope they don't bring in the old guard of Juvi, Super Crazy etc.

No, not really.

A well-built Luchadore with a legitimate look, good booking, and ring skills can get over.

Your right, any luchador that has made it to the top never had to hold a microphone.
