Notes
During 1970s a new tag team emerged in the Mexican independent circuit under the name of Los Hermanos Muerte (The Death Brothers). Not only their personalities drawn the people's attention, also their on ring abilities as a well coordinated rudo tag team. They were main eventers at Arena KO Algusto (currently Arena Naucalpan), which got EMLL's attention nmaking them debut in the Martes Populares at Arena Coliseo.
In that time, Saúl Montes dealt with Central American and Caribbean promoters to bring Mexican talent to their countries. Those promoters requested Mexican wrestlers with certain characteristics. Montes negotiated with those wrestlers who he considered capable. Many wrestlers got opportunities in Central America and the Caribbean. Many of them got opportunities that they could hardly have in Mexico. By the late 1960s and early 1970s, Los Hermanos Muerte made campaign in those areas, and they were considered a great tag team.
There goes a urban legend in which Hermano Muerte I (José Tito Velázquez) fell in love with a beautiful Miss Panamá, even mentioned in media. The truth is Velázquez never came back to Mexico. Hermano Muerte II (José Pérez), continued solo, in Naucalpan and in Arena Coliseo in the preliminaries. During mid 1970s, Francisco Flores and Valente Pérez introduced José Román Zacarías as the new Hermano Muerte I and the new tag team partner of José Pérez.
Meanwhile, Tito Velázquez was residing in Central America and wrestling in the Caribbean. He became a main eventer im Dominican Republic, where he had a rivalry with the legendary Jack Veneno. After a longtime feud, they went to an apuestas match celebrated on March 22, 1975 at Auditorio Eugenio Maria de Hostos in Santo Domingo. Jack Veneno unmasked Hermano Muerte I giving his name as Tito Velázquez, he continued unmasked for a while until assumed the Cruz Diablo persona.
