52nd Anniversary of Lucha Libre in Estadio de Mexico

Created by MPJ-DK (talk). Self-nominated at 00:11, 5 July 2016 (UTC).

  •  :* Symbol question.svg This article is new enough and long enough. The article is neutral and the sources, in Spanish or offline, are not available to me to check for policy issues. I think the hook is a bit misleading as it suggests that the IWRG organised that Veneno should be shaved bald whereas it was the loser of this contest that was required to be shaved. You could substitute "the loser" for Veneno in the hook, but perhaps you would not like this. Could you suggest a different hook? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:55, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
  • Since it is pro wrestling then IWRG did in fact arrange for it, that is the outcome they booked for the match. I thought the juxtaposition of celebrating something by having something humiliating happen to someone was a good way to mix it up a bit and make it more "hooky"  MPJ-DK  11:22, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
Do I deduce from your comment that each bout is a show and not a contest, with a predetermined winner and loser? In fact, which competitor is to be unmasked or have his hair shorn off is known in advance? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:29, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
  • In pro wrestling the match outcomes are predetermined yes, the matches are athletic and physical etc but the outcome is planned out. MPJ-DK  15:22, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
  • Symbol voting keep.svg Having clarified that, this hook is good to go with the present wording. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:04, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
