Los Villanos are a five brothers who've all worked under the Villano name. Each one was identified only by a Roman Numeral: I, II, III, IV, and V.
Their father is Ray Mendoza; despite being a succesful wrestler himself, he demanded his sons learn another profession/trade before becoming allowing them to start with wrestling. Some of the sons secretly wrestled before fufilling this request, but all earned degrees in their non-wrestling fields.
As the name suggests, the Villanos were known as villians for large stretches of their career. As a family, their most famous feud was and is with the Brazos, including a memorial trios cage match where all three Brazos lost their masks.
Villano III's career highlights include feuds with Pegasus Kid and Atlantis, the later who took his mask. Villano IV and V are probably the most famous in the United States due to their long underdcard stretch in WCW. Villano I was a trainer for the UWA in the 90s. Villano II was a freelance artist in his spare time.
Villano I, Villano II, and Ray Mendoza have passed. Villanos III, IV, and V were last in CMLL but are now independent wrestlers.
