Notes

Abismo Negro was a mainstay of AAA, usually a rudo in the biggest matches and often part of the some version of the Vipers. Abismo Negro actually started his major promotion career in CMLL as Furor, but jumped to AAA in it's earliest days. Before he was Abismo Negro, he was the first man in AAA to use the name Winners, a female favorite tecnico who lost his mask to Super Calo. The connection between the two characters is not publicly acknowledged, and Abismo Negro has become the much more well known character.

Abismo Negro was known as "El Rey del Martinete" due to his frequent use of banned piledrivers moves. While the martinete is more often broken up than executed, Abismo has taken out opponents with the move many times. Abismo was also frequently seen with an aerosol can and a lighter, allowing him to blow fire during this entrance and for victories.

Abismo Negro has been one of AAA's all purpose rudos, used to make whichever tecnico he works with look a little better. Besides his Vipers membership, Abismo was a major part of LLL during the peak of it's existence. Abismo teamed a lot with his mini, Mini Abismo Negro to feud with other mascot tag teams (most notably Mascara Sagrada AAA & Mascarita Sagrada 2000.) Abismo was far less successful as a tecnico.

As a representative of AAA, Abismo's appeared in TNA (during their "World X Cup" period) and worked for Japanese groups (including NOAH). Abismo Negro often appears on the morning television program Vida TV. He appeared a kind of a judge for talent contests on the show.

Abismo's last biggest rival was Latin Lover. The two have not only wrestled against each other often, gotten into fights on non-AAA variety TV shows and teased mask vs hair matches. Latin's appears to be on the outside of AAA at the moment and any final match between the two went stalled. Abismo battled drug problems thru his career, and missed long stretches of recent years while dealing with them.

Abismo Negro died March 22, 2009 near El Rosario, Sinaloa.
