Legends of Lucha Libre™ is the official licensing association and agency of the icons, legends and superstars of the lucha libre world. From former WWE World Champion & global Mexican icon Rey Mysterio to the legendary 2nd generation luchador Blue Demon Jr., Legends of Lucha Libre brings them, and dozens more, out of the ring and into the world of licensing. For many, this is the first time their likeness and IP has been made available outside of Mexico. While luchadores may be Mexican wrestlers, their fan bases expand well beyond any country or industry.
