Profile

Zeus was born on September 23rd, 1947 in the small town of Ario de Rosales, Michoacán, Mexico. He trained under El Enfermero and debuted in July 1966. His nickname was "El Enmascarado Purpura"

He feuded with El Dinámico in 1968. Dinamico would go on to become Ultraman, and Zeus unmasked him on September 15th, 1968. The match was said to be a heated match with both wrestlers almost tasting defeat. He also captured the masks of Black Bull and Robin at some point, though the exact dates are unknown. He captured the mask of Angel de La Muerte on March 18th, 1975. It is unknown when, but he captured the mask of a Corsario Negro during his career and then captured the mask of his partner Corsario Negro II on July 22nd, 1975. It appears that he also feuded with the Villanos during this time.

He competed in the 1977 Toneo De La Muerte. The event was a one nigh losers advance double mask vs double msk tag team tournament.

During the battle royal to determine seeding, he was placed with Pantera Azul. The team lost to Huracan Ramirez and El Matematico in the first round. They were then defeated by Villano I and Masked Marvel in the semifinals. They had the misfortune of advancing to the finals against Estrella Blanca and Ultraman. While Zeus had taken the mask of Ultraman(when he was Dinamico) in 1968, Ultraman got revenge with Zeus and Pantera Azul being unmasked.

Little is known of Zeus' career after, likely due to him being an independent wrestler and due to limited information of the time period.
