Major League Wrestling (MLW) today announced Mascarita Dorada will make his debut at MLW: Intimidation Games Saturday, April 18 at Cicero Stadium in Chicago. The event will be a MLW FUSION TV taping for beIN SPORTS.
The most recognized mini in Lucha Libre will enter Major League Wrestling this spring. Standing 4’5″ and weighing 92 pounds, Mascarita Dorada is a high-flying marvel of not just the Mexican Lucha Libre circuit but around the world. An accomplished Mini Estrella, Mascarita Dorada has transcended the sport, appearing in movies such as Nacho Libre, starring Jack Black.
Revered as one of Lucha libre’s most popular stars, Mascarita Dorada is a renowned Luchador. A two-time AAA Mexican National Mini-Estrella Champion and DDT Pro-Wrestling Ironman Heavymetalweight Champion, Dorada is a decorated luchador beloved by fans around the world. Defeating Mini Estrellas in a mask vs. mask matches as well as a high profile mask vs. hair bout against Hornswoggle, Mascarita Dorada is an iconic Luchador.
One of the hallmarks of Lucha Libre is the mini division. Featuring the smallest, arguably the quickest and most beloved Luchadores in the sport, the mini division predominately features Luchadores with a height limit of 5′ tall. Legendary Luchadores such as Rey Mysterio Jr. debuted in AAA’s mini division and have thrilled fans with the aerial acrobatics, colourful attacks and larger than life personalities. Now the spectacular world of minis comes to Major League Wrestling starting on April 18th. League officials expect Mascarita Dorada’s bout will be announced shortly.
