Well regarded CMLL tecnico of the late 80s and the 90s, with short stints in AAA and CMLL. Never an absolutely top luchador, but a successful middle level luchador for a number of years.

The opponent in an infamous mask match with Principe Maya. Maya lost, appeared to be inebriated, and refused to unmask.

Originally was going to get a new mask and look in the late 90s. He stayed with his original design, and the mask design instead became Ultimo Guerrero's look. He was part of Los Folkloricos in 1994 in AAA, but the group was gone by 1995.

Briefly became a CMLL referee after his lucha libre career ended, but didn't stick. Returned to wrestling occasionally on indie shows, and tragically passed away from a heart attack after a rios team match against his former partner Atlantis.
