(Cheering) DAMIAN: Rey Mysterio is
the most successful luchador of his generation. It was he who took Mexican
Lucha to the world stage, making millions
of fans and dollars over the course of his career. But those dollars were
made in the United States. The average luchador in Mexico
will be paid less than $100 to wrestle in front of
5,000 screaming fans, while the exact same wrestler
will be paid $500 to wrestle in front of 300 people
in the United States. (Cheering)
