Since it’s February, I wholeheartedly thank the Virgin of Gaudalupe for giving me the opportunity to enjoy and be entertained by the most beautiful sport in the world. I dedicate this retablo to the greatest figures in the wrestling—El Santo, Blue Demon, Mil Mascaras.

My mother of Guadalupe, we thank you for letting us cross the Arizona desert without being caught by the immigration police. We managed to fulfill our American dream and keep on going forward together, in family.
