Notes

Fantastic wrestler who first showed up on PROMELL cards in 1996 recycling a costume design belonging to Dragon De Oro (one of several gimmicks of Black Warrior in AAA) but acheived popularity from working IWRG regularly from 1999 until 2005. Was one of the most over tecnicos on the roster, getting regular bookings in semi-main to main events and constantly taking parts to cage matches in which he always managed to save his mask. Fans loved seeing his running tope over the ringpost where he would sometimes land in the crowd and was also the first known wrestler to do a tope suicida straight into the crowd at Arena Naucalpan, a spot which many have copied. Appearences became less and less frequent around 2003; Black Dragon had a final stint between 2004 and 2005 winning the mask of Mega on a Castillo del Terror and winning for a second time the IWRG Middleweight title, after which he disappeared from lineups. The gimmick reappeared in IWRG rings in 2008 but it was not known whether it was the same wrestler under the mask. At the end of 2010s then, other totally unrelated two Black Dragon appeared on IWRG. The original Black Dragon resurfaced on a battle royal of Naucalpan legends in 2023.
