What does this tell us? Sports and Entertainment are BIG BUSINESS.\u0026nbsp;ARO LUCHA aims to capitalize on this opportunity by targeting an underserved, yet explosively growing market globally and in the United States: The Latino and Hispanic Market.\u0026nbsp;Lucha Libre is to the Latino and Hispanic Market, what Baseball is to the United States...a National\u0026nbsp;Treasure that sees not only mom and dad attend, but kids, and grandparents...it's a 3 generation draw which means the opportunities are endless and WITH YOU,\u0026nbsp;WE WANT OUR PIECE OF THE PIE!WHAT WE DOOur team has created over 300 hours of network television and over 100 episodes of professional wrestling, so we know a thing or two about live production. With team members who have wrestled for the WWE and produced countless live wrestling productions, we're equipped to handle the heavy lifting.\u0026nbsp;Aro\u0026nbsp;Lucha has produced multiple live shows over our existence with thousands of people attending our live events. Our goal is to create a television program, similar to the WWE's Raw and Smackdown, but targeted to our demographic. Lucha Libre is fun, high flying and exciting...with vibrant colors and masks...it's the perfect entertainment for young and old!...BUT THAT'S NOT ALL! WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE THIS!Aro Lucha is moving deeper into the market, similar to major studios like\u0026nbsp;Disney and Pixar, we've partnered with industry titans to create an animated companion show for Aro Lucha. Imagine kids on their phones watching YouTube and devouring our animated content, AND\u0026nbsp;THEN\u0026nbsp;being able to come see their favorite characters LIVE at their local coliseum!We Introduce: The Titans (Meet The Team)These projects might ring a bell? Avatar, Spider Man, Men In Black, Lucha Underground, Transformers, Magic the Gathering...These are all projects that Jeff Gomez and Mark Pensavalle of StarLight Runner touched and worked on.\u0026nbsp;Starlight Runner specializes in the expansion of entertainment properties into highly successful, multi-platform communications and international campaigns.\u0026nbsp;Starlight Runner has partnered with us to do the same for the AroLucha Universe!Tom Bancroft...Former Disney Animator and Founder of Pencilish Animation StudiosPencilish Animation Studios, our animation partners, led by Tom Bancroft, is made up of former Disney, Sony Pictures, and Warner\u0026nbsp;Brothers Legends. Tom Bancroft has worked on some of the most popular and profitable animated features of all time including The Lion King, Pocahontas, and Mulan.\u0026nbsp;Need a taste! Here is the opening sequence to our animated series!WHY WE BELIEVE WE WILL SUCCEED!On of the reasons we believe the WWE was so successful is that they OWNE THIER IP. Just like Disney owns Frozen, Elsa, Anna, and Olof, our goal is to create unique characters that We, YOU, own together so that we can monetize them in a multitude of ways.\u0026nbsp;AroLucha is more than just a Sports and Entertainment Company...Imagine a\u0026nbsp;Global Target Audience with a Domestic Buying Power of $1.9\u0026nbsp;Trillion Dollars, who have made up approximately 50% of the recent US Population Growth according to a recent report by Nielsen. We aim to be the heartbeat and leader of entertainment of this kind to our market.HOW WE INTEND MAKE MONEY WITH ITThere are multiple potential revenue streams in our model, including Television Programming Licensing, Live Event Tickets Sales, Character and Merchandise Licensing, Animation\u0026nbsp;Show Licensing, Advertising and Marketing Revenue, Sponsorships, and more but\u0026nbsp;THE REAL\u0026nbsp;MONEY in animation comes from all the ancillary licensing and merchandising deals that can be made in areas like publishing, video games, and more from our Characters and Intellectual Property that WE OWN...Together with YOU!!!\u0026nbsp;See the chart below, note how much of the profits come from the franchises' merchandising (yellow).HEAR FROM THE FOUNDERS AND THE TEAM ABOUT THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!CLICK THE\u0026nbsp;INVEST NOW BUTTON AND INVEST BEFORE TIME RUNS OUT!!!","quick_facts":["WWE \u0026amp; UFC just combined to create a Sports \u0026amp; Entertainment Company Valued at $21.4 Billion Dollars","Target Market with over $1.9 Trillion Dollars in Buying Power.","Rey Mysterio owns a small percentage of our company.","Market that LOVES our product -
