MinneCulture | Rudos in the ring, técnico in the community

Lucha libre is a style of Mexican wrestling that blends acrobatics, combat, and classic narrative tropes of good and evil to engage audiences. One local company, Rudos Promotions, brings lucha libre to northeast Minneapolis once a month. They also provide training to new wrestlers during the week.

Owner Jesus De La Torre hopes to inspire the next generation of luchadores in Minnesota. KFAI’s Julie Censullo spoke with De La Torre and some of his wrestlers in today’s story.
