Since the early summer, videos of a wrestler dressed as a puppy brawling in “lucha libre” matches has been making the rounds on Mexican social media.
Wisin, the "puppy luchador" taunts an opponent during a lucha libre event at the Institute of Youth, in Mexico City, on July 25, 2024.
Given that lucha libre bouts are mostly dominated by older male fans, he has created a space for kids to enjoy the spectacle.
