AMARILLO, TX -- The Mexican art of wrestling has come to the states and today Amarillo was able to meet some of the wrestlers to get signed autographs and even get their pictures taken with them.

Lucha Libre is what it's called and the wrestlers made a visit to Amigos United Supermarket off of Grand Street to get acquainted with the community before the big fight.

One wrestler says Lucha Libre is wrestling with an added splash of spice.

"One thing about Lucha is that it's deep rooted in Mexican Culture and we've brought a taste of that here to the United States. It's such a honor to be a part of it and many people don't get the opportunity to actually come and see Lucha Libre at a quality level live here in the U.S.," said Tigresa Caliente, Lucha Libre Fighter.

Lucha Libre USA Masked Warriors will be at the Amarillo Civic Center on Sunday October 24 at six in the afternoon.
