I’m grateful to the Virgin of Guadalupe because my arm is alright now. El Santo took me in the clutch twisting my arm, and I couldn’t move it for three months. I asked for your help. I can move my arm now, so I’m back to wrestle.

Holy Virgin of Sorrows, I give thanks to you for saving me from a certain death when I found myself as a recipient of flying dive of the wrestler Toro Negro (Black Bull). I only had two ribs broken and one arm bruised.

April 1976, in the city of Monterrey The Pharaoh was fighting against Blue Demon and almost semi-fainted. He entrusted himself to the Lord of Anxieties. When the rival was about to rip The Pharaoh’s mask away, the light in the coliseum went off. And that saved The Pharaoh’s career. In sign of his gratitude he dedicated this retablo.

I give thanks to the Virgin of Guadalupe for such a big favor. She made my son Javiercito’s dream came true. He had had an accident, and he was so sad sitting in his wheelchair and watching his favorite wrestler El Santo. Suddenly the wrestler came to him and gave him one of his masks.

William Smith had a marvelous idea to bully a wrestler. But the wrestler applied a hold on William that ended pretty bad for him. William thanks Saint Patrick for his recovery and promises not to behave like a tough guy.
