Posted August 16, 200520 yr comment_3186973 Use this thread to nominate matches you've seen that you think are good that would fit in this category. We'll keep this and all other topics open for the remainder of the year so you can add matches anytime you come across something you see that you like.
August 16, 200520 yr Author comment_3187675 That would actually go in US nominations since it happened in Los Angeles, unless we want to consider Mexico "lucha". We may want to address that for companies touring outside their country anyway. I'm fine with either way. Make the decision, Mortimer, and we'll follow your lead.
August 16, 200520 yr comment_3188012 I'd have to go for fed-based, I think. It's like calling Bret - Davey at Summerslam in the UK a "British" match.
August 19, 200520 yr comment_3213241 Man, I am thinking pre-90s footage of lucha may be too scarce to have its own category. We may want to condense lucha of all eras.
August 19, 200520 yr comment_3213356 Once the lucha 80's section starts at DVDVR, I suspect their will be plenty more.
August 19, 200520 yr comment_3213368 I think there's enough- Niall (www.purodvd.com) keeps threatening to make more volumes of Vintage Lucha, so he must have a source and a bigger collection than he's released.
August 19, 200520 yr comment_3213493 I think my contention is that even if he has 20 volumes, it is still small in comparison to the other categories. Then, add the fact that very few people here actually have access to it and you realize that people can't nominate it if they haven't seen it.
August 19, 200520 yr comment_3213540 I agree that pre 90's lucha should be combined probably with "other Japan 1960-1989" or something.

Then, add the fact that very few people here actually have access to it and you realize that people can't nominate it if they haven't seen it. You're right. It'll be the smallest of the categories, that's for sure.
