Joe Versus The World – 53: Alex Koslov & thecubsfan [lucha]

It’s a lucha double shot at JVSTW, as first CMLL star Alex Koslov joins us straight from Mexico City to discuss how he got into wrestling, training at the Inoki Dojo and going to Mexico, working the lucha style in front of huge crowds, thoughts on Mistico, Marco Corleone and others, and a lot more. Then the Cubs Fan joins us for a quick rundown of the big lucha headlines, including Mistico’s injury, Perro Aguayo Jr’s rising star, will Santo return? And much more, including is there crying in lucha?, mathematic luchadores, the evil couch, and much more! Over fifty minutes of lucha fun!

Even more of me blabbing

I’m going to be talking lucha on the next Joe Versus The World, and we’re taping it Thursday afternoon. If you still have questions about lucha libre you’re dying to ask, send them to Joe ASAP.

We probably won’t get to everything, because I’m not the only guest on the show…
