Mucha Lucha

¡Mucha Lucha! (roughly translated to "A Lot of Wrestling") was a Flash-animated show that ran on Kids' WB! from 2002 through 2005. Running for 52 episodes (and being retitled ¡Mucha Lucha!: Gigante in its third and final season), the show focused on the young Luchadores (masked wrestlers) who are students at the FOREMOST, WORLD RENOWNED, INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF LUCHA!!!!. Most prominent of the students are the main trio, consisting of Rikochet, who aims to become Luchadore Supreme, and his two friends, The Flea and Buena Girl.

 * Rikochet's "Ay, basura."
 * Chain Letter
 * The Chosen One: In the movie, turns out Rikochet is the Chosen One that must defeat the evil El Maléfico to save the Earth. Somewhat averted in that they only win by  working together. He doesn't even get the finishing blow.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: The Flea
 * The Collector
 * Cross-Dressing Voices: Candi Milo as The Flea.

 * Good Angel, Bad Angel: Buena Girl and The Flea appear as Rikochet's angel and devil, respectively, in "Honor Thy Lucha". At the end, The Flea is convinced by two devils to melt the ice caps.
 * A later subversion has The Flea with a devil and an angel, but in this dilemma (in which The Flea has an unfair advantage because Rikochet is in very bad shape), the angel actually agrees with the devil.

 * Loads and Loads of Characters
 * Lucha Libre School
 * Masked Luchador: Almost everyone, if not actually everyone.
 * There are a couple of wrestlers that don't wear mask (the bullies that look like they came from WWE).
 * Some in animate objects get in the the act, too. Remember the Evil Masked Toilet?
 * And animals.
 * Make My Monster Grow: Some wrestliers finishing moves involve increasing their size. In The Movie, the Big Bad does this after they beat him the first time..
 * Nightmare Dreams
 * Organ Autonomy
 * The Other Darrin: Carlos Alazaraqui was replaced by Jason Marsden as Rikochet's voice actor in season 3, and the difference is not lost on Buena Girl.
 * Our Founder
 * The Pig Pen: The Flea. His costume is really white, but his lifestyle and possibly his power relies on him being dirty.
 * Pokémon-Speak: Snow Pea.
 * Prophecies Are Always Right: Rikochet, Buena Girl, and the Flea all had prophecies told to their parents before they were born. Rikochet was predicted to defeat El Maléfico and save the Earth, Buena Girl was predicted to love the Code of Masked Wrestling and help defeat El Maléfico, and Flea was predicated to be extremely fond of Doughnuts. All three were true, though given Flea's parents owned a doughnut shop, his makes sense.
 * Pro Wrestling Is Real
 * Saving Christmas
 * Sealed Evil in a Can: El Maléfico was sealed away in the bowels of the Earth for 100,000 years.
 * Serious Business: Lucha Libre has saved the world on at least one occasion, and most characters live their lives around it. The degree to which it is taken seriously is only a slight exaggeration.
 * Mucha Lucha, Mucha Lucha! It's a way of life!
 * Honor! Family! Tradition! And donuts! (yes, the donuts are also Serious Business)

 * Sleep Cute: Buena Girl sleeping on Rikochet's shoulder in "Big Worm".
