Kicking off the brand new series quite literally with a wrestling challenge Justin will learn to bodyslam, flair flip and use high-flying acrobatic moves. He has only a matter of weeks for the famous wrestling event, Lucha Libre.
The only problem is he's cute, cuddly and not a bit scary.
When just a wee nipper, JLC gawped and cheered at mighty giants like Big Daddy whose belly-smashes sent shudders through an auditorium.
So Justin may not have a chest size of 64 inches like B.D, but he's got, well… the job. With the idea of picking up tips at the All Star Wrestling show in Ipswich, he gets more than he bargained for.
Quaking in his boots he watches the alleged 'fairer sex' throw each other like rag dolls through the air. Then the (ironically named) Sweet Suriya turns on JLC. Pointing at the camera, she shouts at him 'you are nothing' across the auditorium.
It's time to do something about it. He heads to Mexico City where he meets his coach – a transvestite fighter named Cassandro. First he creates a dangerous wrestler persona so with the aid of a latex mask and bodysuit, JLC becomes 'El Glorioso'.
There's no safety guarantee he won't break any bones but its nose to the grindstone as precious time is slipping away. He has to become a Luchador in time for the competition.
Whether he crushes his opponent into submission or gets stuck in a headlock is yet to be seen.
