Revision as of 22:37, 11 December 2013
Japanese and Korean name etymology
Now this page is unlocked... I propose that the ブル and 불 in their Japanese and Korean names (respectively) mean "bull", as in the animal. Like it's tough-as-a-bull.
The only other possibilities include:
- 不 = ぶ bu, 불 bul: not, un-
- ...but 不 usually belongs in the beginning of words.
...that is unless ブル/불 is just a corruption of リブレ/리브레, but... aw, forget it. I'm putting too much thought into this. -- Nick15 (talk) 17:06, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
Origin
Along with luchador design, Hawlucha seems to based on eagle warriors which are also a part of Mexican tradition. Phoenix-f- (talk) 20:41, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
- Aztec, specifically. I got that very same impression the first time I saw Hawlucha in the wild. --Stratelier 17:14, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Name origin
Since it's impossible to be totally sure of a name's origin without a citation, we need to use "may be" instead of "is". I've been reverted on this, so I'm bringing it here in the hopes that someone else will take up the argument with the problem user, since I'm not allowed to acknowledge her existence.
