After watching Rebeltaxi's video on Mucha Lucha, I found this brief video on the co-creator's vimeo, which includes a brief excerpt of the 2014 pitch reel for a potential revival of Mucha Lucha. Nothing has come of it unfortunately, but enjoy. Wikipedia Info: ¡Mucha Lucha! (later known as ¡Mucha Lucha!: Gigante for the third and final season) is an American/Canadian/Mexican animated television series that premiered on Kids' WBon August 17, 2002. It was created by Eddie Mort and Lili Chin and produced by Warner Bros. Animation. It is the first animatedtelevision series created with Adobe Flash, a program which became widely used as a medium for animation in the years following. The show was also seen on Teletoon in Canada, CITV, Pop Max and Disney XD in the UK, Nine Network in Australia and Cartoon Network worldwide (including the US). It is currently unknown if it will ever air on Boomerang.
The show is set in Luchaville, a fictional Southern California town centered on lucha libre (nearly everyone in the town has a mask and costume and a signature move) and is essentially about the adventures of three children, Rikochet, Buena Girl, and the Flea, as they struggle through the Foremost World-Renowned International School of Lucha, where they study.
In 2005, the direct-to-video feature film ¡Mucha Lucha!: The Return of El Maléfico was spun-off from the series. The show also contained music by Michael Tavera, who previously made music for Cartoon Network's Time Squad.
