You could say he predated the super-hero universes that now dominate movies. I remember &#8220;El Santo&#8221; very well as a kid. He was the ultimate hero because he was on television, saving the world and entertaining young boys for years. I loved those flicks, but sadly, most aren&#8217;t memorable, but they did what they were supposed to do. Entertain a child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>LUCHA LIBRE IS AS LATINO AS IT COMES!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While &#8220;El Santo&#8221; movies are not memorable, lucha libre is. Every Saturday morning in Colon, Panama, I would buy Marvel and DC comics because they were more entertaining. Still, I would watch lucha libre on the boob tube. While &#8220;El Santo&#8221; was the man, he wasn&#8217;t my generation as he was already too old, but lucha libre is generational. Some of my favorites: the STP man, the Mummy, and other over-the-top characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>LEARN HISTORY KID<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A week before he died, &#8220;El Santo&#8221; lifted his mask partially to great acclaim, as no one knew who he was. Yes, he was such an icon; he was buried with his mask on, with about 10,000 fans attending his funeral. Sadly, I find Xolo&#8217;s remarks disgusting because you can&#8217;t claim to be Latino or Hispanic and not know our history. Instead, his words show how much of an indoctrinated sheep he is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only an indoctrinated, ignorant fool would make such an untrue statement. Xolo strikes me as just another Americanized kid who has no clue about history and believes it starts with his generation. His ignorance is from an education system that no longer teaches but indoctrinates. Sadly, he&#8217;s a solid actor, and I loved him on Cobra Kai. Still, he should learn history before pretending to be an authority on it, and I hope he can mature into a critical thinker versus the sheep he&#8217;s acting like!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<table
