On this episode of Music of the Mat, Andrew is joined once again by Mike Spears (Open the Voice Gate, SpearsOvations) to discuss the themes of the father of the Dragon System, Ultimo Dragon. As one of the pioneers of the lucharesu style and one of Japanese wrestling's most influential figures, Ultimo Dragon's career has taken him across Japan, Mexico, WCW, WWE, and beyond. Andrew and Mike chat about Ultimo's legacy as a wrestler and trainer, his dashing good looks, his longtime use of "Separados" as a theme, and more.
