1%%* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUnurwA92ik The theme song.]]
2%%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcdt8LgxZtU GIGANTE]]
3* SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments: [[spoiler:When [[BigBad El Malefico]] [[MakeMyMonsterGrow grows giant]] in response to the main trio's beating with their [[MacGuffin Artifacts of Buenaness]]. Cue [[HoldingHands a joining of hands in a three-point star]], a recitation of the ArcWords and an EleventhHourSuperpower to [[{{Sizeshifter}} match El Malefico]].]]
4-->'''Rikochet:''' For ''honor''!\
5'''Buena Girl:''' For ''family''!\
6'''The Flea:''' For ''tradition''!\
7'''[[SpeakInUnison All together:]]''' FOR '''''DONUTS!'''''
8* BaseBreakingCharacter: You either adore The Flea for being a crazy, eccentric fellow that the story never takes very seriously for a reason, or you loathe him for being a one-note {{Gasshole}} gag that almost always repeats the same beats every other episode.
9* CultClassic: It's not a very well known show, but it still has its fans nonetheless.
10* DieForOurShip: Penny Plutonium, in the eyes of the Rikochet/Buena Girl shippers.
11* HilariousInHindsight: In 2002, this show had a fictional luchador named Rikochet. In 2016, [[{{Wrestling/Ricochet}} actual wrestler Ricochet]] wrestles for Wrestling/LuchaUnderground under the name "Prince Puma". The 630 splash, is about as close to a real world logic "Pulverizing Pinball" you can get.
12* MexicansLoveSpeedyGonzales: The show is ''very'' beloved among Hispanic audiences, as although the show likes to ham up Mexicans stereotypes and is created by an Australian and Asian couple, the creators are hardcore Latinophiles who have ShownTheirWork regarding Mexican culture.
13* SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound: Mr. Midcarda belting out "LUCHAAAAAAAA!!!" at the beginning of the show's intro is considered sacred as it hypes up the show in excitement and anticipation.
14* QuestionableCasting: Creator/PennAndTeller (well, Penn, at least) appear in the ''El Malefico'' movie, voicing AlmightyJanitor versions of themselves.
15* RetroactiveRecognition: Most people remember Jorge R. Gutierrez for ''WesternAnimation/ElTigreTheAdventuresOfMannyRivera'' but some might recognize his art style from this show.
16* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: ''¡Mucha Lucha!: Mascaritas of the Lost Code'' is often regarded as one of the ABSOLUTE worst games on the GBA.
17* ToyShip: Plenty of 'em, especially Rikochet/Buena Girl and Megawatt/Electricity.
18* UglyCute: Calavera is considered this by some.
19* UnexpectedCharacter: Let's be honest here, did ''anyone at all'' expect that the villain of TheMovie would have celebrity cameos as henchmen? And did anyone expect that it would be ''Creator/PennAndTeller?'' Well, just Penn since Teller is TheVoiceless as always, but still.
20* ViewerGenderConfusion: Prima Donna Hodges - She's a girl, right? Also, Snow Pea and Zero Kelvin.
21* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: One of the very first (and arguably the first truly-successful) animated shows created for TV broadcast which used UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash, and while there's a glitch here or there, most of the more fluid shots and dynamic poses still hold up.
