Lucha VaVOOM (LVV)–Los Angeles’ longest-running, most celebrated variety show, where authentic Mexican masked wrestling, burlesque, and comedy collide–returns to the City of Angels for their annual Valentine’s shows on Friday, February 11th and Saturday, February 12th at their historic home venue, The Mayan Theatre (1038 S Hill St.), in downtown Los Angeles.
Dubbed this year as Amor Impossible (“Impossible Love”), tickets for this 21+, two-night event are on sale now at LuchaVaVOOM.com. Attendees must show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or negative test results from the last 24 hours for entry into the venue, plus masks must be worn inside.
The confirmed wrestling line-up for LVV’s Valentine’s shows includes Magno “The Man Mountain” Rudo and Taya Valkyrie (two-time Reina de Reinas Champion and former WWE superstar) vs. Extreme Tiger (former TNA and AAA champion) and Dama Fina (former LVV champion) for the main card. Followed by Dr. Maldad and Chupacabra vs. the Crazy Chickens; Li’l Cholo and Mariachi Loco vs. El Tequilero and Jack Cartwheel; and lastly, Los SEXI Mexi’s (Ave Rex and Sonico) vs. Biggie and Dirty Sanchez (the scatological master of lucha libre, wowing LVV crowds since 2008 with his underhand, dirty tricks and his signature move “A Taste Of The Awful!”).
Burlesque dancers and aerialists confirmed includes Veronica Yune (stunning daredevil aerialist who will be swooping down from above and stealing hearts), Brynn Route (marvelous contortion-trained pole artist), Karis Wilde (androgynous queer performance artist, defying boundaries across all platforms, most notably for his hula hoop artistry), Jessabelle Thunder (burlesque performer, pinup model, and first runner up at Miss Exotic World 2018), and Miss Magnolia (showgirl, go-go and burlesque dancer, and vintage model). Plus, comedian host Blaine Capatch will be delivering insanely off-the-cuff commentary both nights.
