10 Best Lucha Libre Wrestlers In The World Right Now

There's one distinct difference that separates Pentagon Jr. from every other performer featured on this list. A darker, more sinister kind of character than anyone else included, Pentagon has a genuinely frightening aura surrounding him. Much of that has to do with his portrayal as the most dangerous wrestler in Lucha Underground.

Breaking the arms of opponents post-match as a sacrifice to his mysterious 'master', the menacing figure was revealed to be working on behalf of Vampiro. As any excellent storyline should, this angle only enhanced Pentagon's reputation, and he has gone from strength-to-strength ever since.

As the current Lucha Underground Champion, Pentagon Jr. is an example of how effective a character can be in wrestling when harnessed properly. It's no wonder promotions across the globe are itching to secure his services for shows in 2017.

Pentagon is the older brother of Fénix. Between the pair of them, the siblings are some of the top Lucha Libre stars in the world. Are you paying attention, WWE?
