A true luchador knows that size does not matter. Weight does!
— Rikochet

"Weight Gaining" is the second segment of the 1st episode in the first season of ¡Mucha Lucha!. It aired on August 17, 2002, on Kids' WB and March 5, 2004, on Cartoon Network.

Synopsis[]

Rikochet challenges three huge wrestlers at school... to fight all at once. The only problem is that together, they are way out of Rikochet's weight class. He's either got to put on weight and fast or forget the match altogether. Rikochet doesn't quit too easily. And, with the help of Buena Girl, the Flea and sage advice about overeating from El Rey, Rikochet manages to bulk up and up and up... until he's in a weight class all his own... unless, of course, you count planets.

Trivia[]

  • "Weight Gaining" was originally paired with "Heart of Lucha" segment.
  • The largest torta that made Rikochet huge and gigantic was inspired by the large torta sold in "Super Astro" restaurant in Mexico City.

Goofs[]

  • Before Buena Girl and The Flea show up to the scene, Rikochet did not speak when his lips moved. It is unknown if there was an extra scene with Rikochet's dialogue before they showed up next to Rikochet.
  • Headmistress mentions all wrestlers has to go to a special weight class for learning of lucha. But in the previous episode "Back to School", Potato Potata Jr. is bigger than all the other luchadors who is seen in one class.
  • Potato Patata Jr., Francisco of the Forest, and El Haystack Grande are on the scales for the second time, they were on the right side of the scales. When Large Rikochet is on the scales, they are on the left side, instead of standing on the right side.
