I don't know why, but La Parka rocks.

Even if I had access to Lucha, I probably wouldn't get into it, due to me getting all those moves mixed up - tope's, pescado's, randommove-con-helo, I can honestly say I don't know what is what.

at least your honest, not like a lot of those so called "SMART FANS" out there ::)

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say i don't like lucha. Give me puro or American indie stuff any day of the week.

I do admit, I too perfer Puro. There is way too much high high-spotting in Lucha for my taste. I do however like a lot of the mat based lucha stars like Blue Panther, and a lot of the Lucha submission holds!

Pescado: Slingshot Bodypress (inside > outside)
Tope: Diving Headbutt (inside > outside)
Tope Suicida: "Suicide Dive", Running Through-The-Rope Tackle (inside > outside)
Tope Con Hilo: Somersault Bodyblock (inside > outside)
Plancha: Cross-Body Block (inside > outside)
Asai Moonsault: Springboard Moonsault (inside + outside)
Asai Bodyblock: Springboard Moonsault Bodyblock (inside + outside)

Super Quebrada = Asai Moonsault

RVD has done all of them save for the tope, which I've never seen anyone do.

Actually, tope con hilo is really tope con giro. Tope con Hilo is a really bad translation.

Watch RoH, pretty much everyone there does a tope.
PulsarPosted on 07/26/04 at 19:28:55

Tope means Rope....right?
xsouporheroxPosted on 07/26/04 at 20:23:01

I think tope means like over. So any dive over the top rope is technically a tope if I am remembering correctly.

Hey thanks! I always wondered what most of those dive actually were.

On the same note I discovered Wikipedia has a pretty good section on wrestling moves: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_wrestling_holds
