Biography
José Ángel Nájera Sánchez, best known under the ring name of Fishman, was a Mexican professional wrestler who became one of Lucha Libre's biggest stars during the 1980s with the Universal Wrestling Association.
Fishman debuted in late 1969 under the name Goliath Reyes but changed it during 1970 to Titán. In 1971 he changed his name once again this time to Fishman and it is under this name and mask that he achieved his fame.
Fishman rose to notoriety in the UWA, holding the federation’s Lightheavyweight Title 4 times(tied with Karloff Lagarde for most title reigns). In his time in the UWA Fishman competed in many “Mask Vs Mask" matches always coming out with his trademark green and yellow mask in place beating such well known Luchadors as Sangre Chicana and Rey Misterio Sr.
After the UWA folded, he went with some of the other UWA wrestlers to AAA through the mid 1990s and later on also wrestled independently in Mexico. On August 28, 2000 Fishman put his mask on the line against Máscara Sagrada and lost.
