#3: International wrestling is not fully on the radar of American fans

When you hear the term "world champion," you sometimes want to take it literally, as in the person is the best competitor that the world has to offer.

While LUCHA INVADES NY definitely had some familiar faces on the card -- including former UFC champion Cain Velasquez -- I was unfamiliar with some of the featured talent. For example, I had never seen either of the main-eventers, Blue Demon Jr. and Dr. Wagner Jr. wrestle before. Both wrestlers were definitely over with the crowd.

What this tells me, as both a writer and a fan, is that there is always more wrestling talent to seek out. Sometimes the top talent on American television is not who the rest of the world is cheering for. Thanks to LUCHA INVADES NY, I will be seeking out more from Psycho Clown, whose entrance music is hard to forget.
