Profile
A long time IWRG wrestler of many names and faces.
Most notable for his role as Bombero Infernal. A rudo who came to the ring in an outfit of flames (not real flames for safety reasons). He was very successful under that gimmick after losing his mask early in the run. Held many titles and had many feuds where he came out the victor.
In typical IWRG fashion he was suddenly regimmick for no apparent reason as Matrix. The brawling rudo was now a high flying tecnico who wore a colorful mask and painted his face in a look that resembled Ultimo Vampiro. Even though he didn't seem comfortable in the role, IWRG kept the gimmick around for a couple of years and once again... in typical IWRG fashion... for no apparent reason he began wrestling as a rudo and dropped his mask to Fantastik at the first IWRG TV Taping held in Arena Neza. The two had never crossed paths before that match.
His next appearance would be masked once again, this time as part of the new trio of cops (an often used gimmick in IWRG). He took on the name AK-47 but for whatever reason this didn't last long and he was quickly under a new mask as Kraneo. That name may sound farmiliar because Alebrije used to use that gimmick in the same building 10 years before. The Kraneo gimmick outlasted the AK-47 gimmick but it too was eventually ditched in favor of a new gimmick - Capitan Muerte.
When he was unmasked as Capitan Muerte, the information he gave (or what he was heard to give) indicated he was only an 8 year veteran, about 13 years short than thought, which briefly caused people to believe there had been a switch to a second Capitan Muerte. However, the photos of the unmasked Capitan Muerte match Bombero Infernal, so it's just that unmasking info was wrong for whatever reason (likely to not expose who he really was).
Formed a trio with Maldito Jr. and Samot in IWRG, but the group never made much progress. Appears infrequently in IWRG, but, at last word, is still training the youngest class at their school.
