Notes

2011 CMLL tecnico novato, debuting as part of Generacion 2011. Hyped as related to a star of the 70s and 80s, but not giving away the identity for the time being. Magnus made his Arena Mexico debut on Friday February 11, 2011 wearing a modified version of his original match made to resemble Místico very closely, including silver based outfit, white contact lenses and a moveset that closely resembled Místico. It was revealed that Magnus is the cousin of Místico, which means he could possibly be the son of Tony Salazar.

Magnus was on of the stars of the first season of El Luchador. The show portrayed Magnus as a young luchador whose great potential was only surpassed by his arrogance. The final episode of the show revealed Salazar is indeed his father and left Magnus indefinitely suspended by the promotion. Magnus appeared to suffer an arm or shoulder injury in August during the filming of the show, which might also explain his absence.

Magnus has not appeared on a main CMLL card since his injury/suspended, but has turned up on smaller shows using CMLL luchadors as well as indy shows. Magnus appears to be healthy, but it's unclear what his status with CMLL - he may being kept out of CMLL in preparation for a second second of El Luchador, or he may actually be out of CMLL.
