I'm sure someone's going to be pedantic about how any wrestler in Mexico is a luchador, not just the ones we associate with the word. I'm sure one of the many knockoff Kanes might rank up there.

If you're talking about the tallest cruiserweight, which I assume is what you're getting at, then it might be XPac, the guy was like 6'2" just had a really thin body type.

I seem to remember La Parka being bigger than most of the luchadores in WCW. But I don’t think he was ever classified as a crusierweight.

Might be Tinieblas Jr.
He’s 6′ 4″.

Does Giant Silva count? According to Wikipedia he competed full-time in CMLL for a couple of years after the WWF released him.

Giant Silva is the tallest I can find that wrestled with any regularity in Mexico.

Currently Tinieblas Jr and Alberto El Patron.
El Gigante if you count foreigners (Khali and Silva also worked Mexico)

same height as Alberto, believe it or don't. I'm not sure he's ever worked in Mexico, but he does often work the Southwest (California, Texas). He does use the name Luchasaurus now since that's not breaking Lucha Underground's trademarks since that's not really the character name. |
