Masks are a very special part of the Mexican culture and recall early hispanic times. For example; the mighty Aztecs had a very special elite in their society: The ?Eagle Knights? (Caballeros Aguila); the highest-class soldiers always respected for their unique braveness and fighting skills. They used to wear a mask and a whole eagle outfit. The mask reflexed their status; it was intimidating and sacred. Masks are mystical; they show another side of the personality of the person who wears it. In Lucha Libre, the mask gives the ?enmascarado? (masked man) a free soul to express himself on the ring. A mask is not just an accessory but also a symbol, an attitude, a cultural icon, an identity for a Luchador. It is like having a second skin that gives you special powers. It gives the Enmascarado?s blood a new essential ingredient and protects him too.
