Masked Republic Granted Group Visa To Bring Luchadores To U.S.

The Lucha Libre scene in the U.S. is set to have a major infusion of talent.

According to Sports IllustratedMasked Republic has successfully secured a P-3 group visa which will allow 50 Lucha performers to enter the United States.

From Masked Republic’s president and COO Kevin Kleinrock:

“Masked Republic exists largely for the benefit of luchadores. That includes contract understanding and negotiation, IP exploitation to create streams of revenue and royalties, and making sure the talent can come and work in the United States.”

Masked Republic’s founder and CEO Ruben Zamora also commented on the feat:

“We’re going to run Expo Lucha more than once a year, and we need a lot of stars to produce something worthy for wrestling fans,” Zamora says. “This will also allow these stars to continue to expand their brand outside of Mexico, and it gives a tremendous talent pool for our Expo Lucha live events in the United States.”

Brazo de Plata, Último Dragón, Great Sasuke, Tajiri, Psycho Clown, LA Park, Psicosis, Aero Star, Super Crazy, Arez, Hijo de Octagón, Mr. Iguana and Súper Astro Jr. are among the performers included in the visa.
