Cassandro, a prize-winning fighter who reinvented a staunchly macho sport, is one of the industry’s first openly gay lucha libre stars. Cassandro’s story—of an underdog and a queer icon, simultaneously fragile and mighty—is ever more evocative as it unfolds on both sides of the Mexican-American border.
