Notes
Moved to Guadalajara when his parents got divorced. Practiced boxing and basketball, but he had to defend himself of bullies at school. His mother was worried about her son's situation, she asked her brother El Monarca. His Uncle asked him to train lucha libre as a sport which could help him to channeling that anger. His first trainers were Diablo Velazco and Gran Cochisse at Arena Coliseo Guadalajara, but he did not tell them that he was Anibal's son. Learned Greco-Roman, Intercolegial, and Olympic wrestling winning state competitions in 1986. Continued his preparation learning the shoot-style and his uncle took him with Flash to learn lucha libre. His early in ring experiences were at Arena Jalisco owned by Zandokan. His first gimmick was Black Trub. He named himself after a tennis shoes brand. The owner of that brand of shoes was his mother's husband and sponsored him. The novice luchador brought tennis shoes to give away. On 1988, Anibal contacted him to talk about his illness and he wanted him to continue with his legacy.
For many years it was believed that he was the young boy who entered the ring after Máscara Año 2000 had unmasked his father and swore he would get revenge one day. He was the one who removed his father's mask, but he refused to give it to Máscara Año 2000 and put it on. That boy that famous lucha libre highlight was an Anibal's son but not him. He attended his father's mascara contra mascara, and was told by Anibal that after the match he would introduce him as his son and his successor, but everything took a very different turn. He came from Guadalajara and watched the match with Mano Negra. Previously, Aníbal gave one of his masks to him and he would it inside his jacket until the end of the match. Anibal made him go to the dressing room before the main event started. When he arrived, Anibal told him that he would not be presented at the end of match as he promised, instead there would be that young boy, who was Anibal's son of another marriage. Anibal apologized and the saddened young luchador ledt the dressing room.
On 1992 he was invited by Octagon to join to AAA, but as Anibal Jr.' but he did not considered ready to don the legendary mask. Instead he went as La Saeta Azul wearing a very similar attire to the one of his father. He is found working in main events in the independent circuit in México. He had traveled in independient promotions in the United States, Japan, tours in Europe, Central and part of South America.
He received an invitation to participate in Michinoku Pro Wrestling's Fukumen World League 2003 along with Atlantis. [1].
In 2008, IWRG seemed as if they were going to push him as a bigger in company star, by trying to associate themselves with the Anibal legacy as CMLL has done with Santo and Blue Demon. This went as far as creating a Leyenda de Seda tournament and using Anibal regularly. Like all the other touring independent stars, Hijo del Anibal vanished from the company in late 2008 when IWRG lost television (and the TV money.)
Trainer of new generations of wrestlers in the Anibal Gym.
