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)
