Live Wrestling Matches Held In Mexico City's Subway System

Eleven live wrestling matches, including some involving midgets, were moved into Mexico City's subway system Friday, according to a Local 6 News report.

As commuters moved through the Chabacano subway station and two other busy stations, wrestlers battled it out in a professional ring.

Exposition and event organizer Debroah Holmes said the unusual wrestling display was in honor of photographer Lourdes Grobet, who has been photographing wrestlers since 1975.

"What we are witnessing here is a wrestling inaugural event to celebrate the wrestling exhibition, in three subway stations," Holmes said.

The photo display includes 140 pictures, on display in Chabacano, Consulado and Tacubaya stations.

"This is very fun, especially for those of us who cannot pay or who simply don't have time," commuter Sofia Sanchez said. "It is a good opportunity to come to this sort of show. I had never seen it live."
