Multiple wrestlers have used the name Black Tiger. The identity is owned by New Japan Pro Wrestling, so all wrestlers take up the name and the mask at NJPW's prompting. In Japan, they're natural evil rivals to Tiger Mask, another shared identity.

  • Black Tiger I was British wrestler Marc Rocco
  • Black Tiger II was Eddie Guerrero, who did not wrestle under the name in Mexico
  • Black Tiger III was Silver King, who did extensively wrestle as Black Tiger in Mexico from 2001 until he lost his mask to LA Park in 2006.
  • Black Tiger IV was Rocky Romero, who did not wrestle under the name in Mexico.
  • Black Tiger V is Tatsuhito Takaiwa whom assumed the mask in 2009 and is the current Black Tiger in Japan, but has yet to wrestle in Mexico.
  • Black Tiger (Puebla) uses the gimmick in Puebla, including CMLL shows at Arena Puebla.
