I once saw a lucha promotion at a local festival, and in one of the matches, the face did a big dive to the outside in front of a kid in the crowd. He then got back in the ring, turned to the kid, and pointed at him and said, “That one’s for you, little man!”
The heel’s manager then went over to the kid and said, “Don’t listen to his LIES! That wasn’t for you! NOTHING’S FOR YOU!”
I still remember that, years later. I bet that kid does too.
So take the kids. They’ll form lifelong memories. Just maybe check on the promotion first, and make sure they’re not too bloody or risqué.
That’s a really cool story. Easily a core memory for that kid.
I’ll definitely take them soon. Their parents aren’t really into wrestling but I’ve snuck a few minutes of Dynamite in here-and-there and got the boys into it…though not quite as much as I’d like lol
