Luchadores are traditionally more agile and perform more acrobatic moves than professional wrestlers in the US which, more often, rely on power moves and strikes to subdue their opponents. Masks (mascara) have been used dating back to the beginnings of lucha libre and have a historical significance to Mexico dating back to the days of the Aztecs. The masks are colorfully designed to evoke the images of animals, gods, ancient heroes, and other archetypes, whose identity the luchador takes on during a performance. Virtually all wrestlers in Mexico will start their careers wearing masks, but over the span of their careers a large number of them will be unmasked. The mask is considered "sacred" to a degree, so much so that fully removing an opponents mask during a match is grounds for disqualification. During their careers, masked luchadores will often be seen in public wearing their masks. With the importance placed on masks in lucha libre, losing the mask to an opponent is seen as the ultimate insult and can at times seriously hurt the career of the unmasking wrestler. Putting one's mask on the line against a hated opponent is a tradition in lucha libre as a means to settle a heated feud between two or more wrestlers. In these battles, called luchas de apuestas ("matches with wagers"), the wrestlers "wager" either their mask or their hair.
