Notes

One of the most beloved luchadors in Mexicali. He is Co-founder of Arena Nacionalista, current promoter, ring announcer, and occasional referee.

Began to train at the age of 16. He was the first son of Manuel Hernandez to debut as a wrestler. His professional wrestling career began in 1976 in San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora under his nicknames "Pato" Hernandez and that name did not work. Later on he adopted the name of Pluma Blanca he wrestled under that name for about 8 matches and it seemed to work. Nevertheless his father and his Trainer had the idea of adopting the name of Príncipe Negro since he used to wear a sarape and a black fedora with a cross. He bought one gear to Relampago Negro and made some modifications. He took off the lightingvolt for a crown. His first matches were in San Luis Rio Colorado, because he was a lightweight and there were few luchadores in that division in Mexicali. He used to go back and forth with Tury Olivares. Benjamin Mora gave him opportunites to all over Baja California and Baja California Sur. He was noticed by Rafael Rebelin has a big draw at local level. One of his most memorable matches originally a tag team match between Septiembre Negro and him against Carlos Plata and Negro Casas. Septiembre Negro and Carlos Plata missed and the match went to a hand to hand with Negro Casas which turned in a memorable match. He used to team up with his father and brothers making events with full attendances.

Príncipe Negro vs El Estudiante

There was a mask vs hair against El Estudiante. Principe Negro lost the match by the second's intervention the referee's decision was controversial and the crowd did not accept it. The situation turned into a riot. Principe Negro was pulled down of the ring by the crowd and made a barrier to prevent him to take his mask off. He attemped to untie his mask but someone grabbed his had. The ring announcer said he should unmask but he suddenly someone pointed a gun at him. The people demanded an indult and Príncipe Negro kept his mask.

Príncipe Negro vs Negro Azteca

Príncipe Negro told he won that match in two falls in a row, but he was disqualified because he did not release Negro Azteca. In the third fall there was another controversial end. However this time the commisioner told that the decison was final and he should unmask despite of the people's protests

The Truce with El Estudiante

Even with their feud of many years, Príncipe Negro and El Estudiante had to ally for the first and only time in their careers. After a bout Destroyer and Leopardo, two luchadores from Guadalajara began to beat up El Estudiante, the crowd asked Príncipe Negro to help him. Príncipe aided El Estudiante and they were challeged for a lucha de apuestas of Príncipe's mask and Estudiante's hair against the masks of their challengers. The Arena Coliseo Mexicali registred a full attendance to see this unique allience. This was a worthy victory for both.

Groups and Tag Teams
