The Main Event: A Rivalry Reignited
The highlight of the evening is the intense showdown between Luís Mestre, the current Lisbon Champion, and his former tag team partner, Damião. Their battle for the legendary Lisbon belt is steeped in history and rivalry, dating back to the 1930s and honoring wrestling legends like Carlos Rocha and Tarzan Taborda.
A Cultural Phenomenon
Wrestling at Parque Mayer isn't just a sport; it's a cultural expression with deep roots in Lisbon's history. The venue was a hotspot for historic matches in the 1950s, and this event continues that legacy with today's most talented generation of wrestlers.
Nelson Pereira, the event's promoter and historian, shares:
"Since the days of Carlos Rocha and Tarzan Taborda, wrestling has been a part of Parque Mayer's soul. Today, with the best wrestlers we've ever had, that legacy is stronger than ever."
