Movie Goof (anachronisms): The plot takes place in early '70s. In one of the first cuts, when Nacho is a kid (some 20 years before the main plot), he pulls off a cloth from above a color TV. Color television started in Mexico in late '60s.
Ramses is portrayed by Cesar Gonzalez, a real life luchador best known as Silver King, a second generation luchador who is the son of lucha libre legend Dr. Wagner. He is also the brother fellow luchador Dr. Wagner Jr. and the uncle of the recently debuted Dr. Wagner III.
Movie Goof (audio/visual unsynchronized): When sister is reading the letter delivered by Esquelto, we hear Nacho's voice. When she gets to the second page, the words on the page do not match up with what is being said.
While filming a wrestling scene, Jack Black jumped from the ring and struck his head on a chair. This caused a gash above his right eye which needed stitches.
