Description
In Lucha Libre, the mask is one of the most important elements for a wrestler. What's at stake when a wrestler loses their mask? Does their career come to an end? In the 1970s, an iconic match captured everyone's attention. Three wrestlers fought to retain their masks, but only one emerged victorious.
