Los Espantos
[edit]Los Espantos (Spanish for "The Scares") was one of the earliest examples of an "Identical trio" in Lucha libre going under the names Espanto I, Espanto II and Espanto III. Later on the sons of Epanto III would wrestle as Espanto IV and V and another team would use the name Los Hijos del Espanto ("The Sons of Espanto") despite not being related to any of the original Espantos. In the 1980 Espanto Jr. was allowed to use the name as well and in 2012 his son also began working as Espanto Jr.. Finally Los Espantos also allowed a Mini-Estrella to use the name Espantito. The original Los Espantos trio has been called one of the best bad guy trios in the history of Lucha Libre, with their name still being around today, 40 years after the peak of the original Los Espantos in the mid-to-late 1960s.

I am nominating this groups of articles for Good Topic status as I believe they hit all the marks necessary. There are nine articles in total. All are Good Articles. It covers all possible Espanto Articles that can currently be created so no gaps. They are clearly covering a similar topic and inter-connected. There is a lead article. The only challenge is that I don't have a free use image of any of Espantos. This is my first ever "Good Article" nomination and the first Lucha libre potential Good Topic as well. Any and all comments and suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance. MPJ-DK 20:41, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- Given that they all wore the same mask, could an image similar to File:Mascara El Santo.jpg be created and used as the topic image? Just a thought........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:50, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
- That is possible yes, the design is not complicated. Unfortunately that is beyond my skillset to create and still look good. MPJ-DK 16:37, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
