Group History

The group started with Laredo Kid, Super Fly, Rey Cometa and Nemesis (AAA). For a time, pretty much any young debuting high flier in AAA ended up in the group, especially on non-television events. At the group's largest point, the original four were also joined by El Angel, Aerostar, and Pegasso as a seven man group. That obviously leaves more people than you can have a match, so guys (Nemesis) have ended up in openers instead, or others (Rey Cometa) disappear for stretches on TV. The numbers worked in AAA's favor for spot shows, as there were often two different yet complete Fuerza Aerea trios working different parts of the country on the same night.

Laredo Kid was positioned as the star of the group early on, but long absences due to leg injuries have sabotaged feuds for him. In his absence, both Super Fly and Aerostar have been given their own individual storylines and are treated as the bigger stars. This has turned into a storyline where Super Fly annoys his partners by talking about how he's a main event guy and obviously leader of the group. His partners disagree.

Rey Cometa and Pegasso left AAA in early summer of 2008, due to lack of work. Their departure couple with Laredo's injury and Nemesis's vanishing led to Angel being declared an official member. Fellow opening card tecnicos Gato Eveready and Argenis are also linked to this group at times, but didn't seem to be official members. When Angel left AAA in 2009, Argenis was moved up to being a member to round out the numbers. Dizzy has also worked as a member on non-televised shows. Also, since Atomic Boy is a normal size wrestler now, he has been linked to the group, but isn't an official member yet.

Independent/CMLL Version

After leaving AAA, Rey Cometa & Pegasso continued to team in the independent scene. Pegasso often used 'Pegasso Xtreme' as his name during this period, presumably over confusion over who owned the 'Pegasso' name. Cometa and Pegasso were still promoted as Real Fuerza Aerea despite no long being in AAA and teamed with various wrestlers to complete a trio. AAA appeared to let this go without fighting over the name (perhaps because they dropped 'AAA' from it.)

Their most high profile run during this period was in IWRG, teaming with Freelance as the third member. The trio earned a shot at Los Oficiales' Distrito Federal Trios Championship, but came up short.

Later in 2008, Cometa and Pegasso signed with CMLL full time. Initially, the pair did interviews suggesting they might continue teaming as Real Fuerza Aerea CMLL. This time, members of Real Fuerza Aerea AAA protested. Rey Cometa and Pegasso dropped the name, vowing to come up with a new one.
