  1. I wanted to understand what makes these Mexican fighters with their wonderful bodies, hide their faces behind a mask? Do they not show their faces because they are ugly? And their bodies are wonderful, with sculpted muscles, firm muscles and such?

    1. I think it is just a tradition in Mexican wrestling. Considering the popularity of their stars, it probably grants them anonymity outside the ring.
      IMO, you can see past his hands enough that it is clear Halcon Negro has no problem in the looks department. Anon.

  2. Bruno, perhaps you can clear this up. I was looking for HALCÓN NEGRO JR matches and came across this video: HALCÓN NEGRO JR: LA PELICULA NI TU NI YO CATAPULTO MI CARRERA.
    As far as I can figure out, HALCÓN NEGRO JR was a character in the movie Ni Tu Ni Yo, but I am not sure that he played himself. Actor Mauricio Argüelles is named. So did the movie just use the Halcon Negro name, did Halcon Negro the luchador play a part in the movie, or what? Anon.

    The link to the video interview of HN is here:

  3. From what I can tell, the 2018 Mexican movie Ni Tu Ni Yo is a biopic about Halcon Negro Jr.'s grandfather, Halcon Negro. Actor/producer Mauricio Arguelles portrays Halcon Negro in the movie, but I couldn't find a credit for the stuntman who did the lucha/action scenes. My Spanish isn't so good, but Halcon Negro Jr. seems to be saying in the video you linked that the popularity of the movie Ni Tu Ni Yo gave his burgeoning lucha career a boost.

    1. Thanks much! and good for him! I realized there was a "Sr." when I found he was a "Jr.," but had no idea the Sr. was his GRANDfather. Neat. Anon.
