The G4 Network will be filming a lucha libre pilot in Tijuana, Mexico on 3/30. The show will be titled "Viva La Lucha" and will be a Lucha Libre show for an English speaking audience. The goal of the network is obviously to attract the 18-49 male demographic.
Some of the bigger names set to be apart of the pilot are Juventud Guerrera, Nicho El Millionaro (former Psicosis), L.A. Park (former La Parka), and Rey Mysterio Sr. The Human Tornado from Wrestling Society X will also be involved. Chavo Guerrero, Sr. and Larry Rivera will be doing the announcing.
The taping will be free and take place at Tecate Foro/Palenque at Parque Morelos. Confirmed matches are below.
*Disco Machine & Joey Ryan & Karl Anderson vs. Human Tornado & Lil' Cholo & Silver Tyger
*Tazmania & Scream & Viernes 13 vs. Pancho Cachando & Animaniac & Shamu Jr.
*Super Astro & Venum Black vs. Angel Mensajaro & Psycho
*Phoenix Star & Zokre & Cobra II (aka Puma) vs. Los Hego Boys
*Los Ice Creams vs. Jigsaw & Lince Dorado
*Minis: La Parkita & Octagoncito vs. Piratita Morgan & Espectrito
*Xtreme Tiger vs. Mortiz (Note from Mike: This has been a pretty heated feud in Tijuana)
*Rey Misterio Sr. & L.A. Park vs. Nicho El Millionario (Psicosis) & Juventud Guerrera
Once the pilot is complete, it will be presented to the G4 Network in hopes of getting picked up.

Sweet, I just hope the show is an hour at least (doubtful though) and all is on TV.

Sounds really good, Its a shame I no longer get G4.
What I really dont get is why they have Larry Rivera comenting. He was only good in XPW where he was a caricature of himselve breaking into spanish randomly and saying "violent crap" every other word.

Upside is that it gives me a reason to watch G4 again. Downside is, it seems like the Kaiju Big Battel pilot I heard rumor about them making might not happen now. Also, Tazmania...I'd start looking for a new name soon...

besides the kaiju big battle show was basically a cheap plug for their dvd's.
plus I never really liked kaiju big battle as I never considered it wrestling but more of a show/entertainment troupe

If they want to attract the american males(SNAP!) then they should turn Lucha Va Voom into a TV show. Its the most entertaining show I have been to and is full of hot chicks doing crazy crap and awesome wrestling.
