Arena Coliseo in Mexico City is the oldest venue for lucha libre, dating back to the 1940s.
Families, couples and tourists fill the stadium, but female wrestlers only appear occasionally on the bill.
Women’s wrestling lost most of its official support 11 years ago. The main wrestling associations ruled that insurance and benefits were too costly.
For a short time, coverage of the luchadoras was banned from Mexican TV for being too violent, but was quickly reinstated.
