Talk:L.A. Park

Crazy danish782:

Still called La Parka in many places, even on the programs to advertise the shows. The L.A. Park name change was just for legal records. Pena was really the only guy that seriously went after the name and now there aren't any people in AAA who care that he uses the Parka name.--[[User:Robert|Robert]] 23:36, 19 August 2007 (EDT)

I think we've got enough general LA Park photos for now. If he's in a big match or wins a belt or something, feel free to add those, but we look complete on the WCW stuff (with the exception of [[Diamond Dallas Page]] in the suit). --[[User:Nkhan|thecubsfan]] 21:31, 17 December 2007 (EST)

This profile starts to seemed to be the Adolfo Tapia's fotolog --[[User:Crazy danish782|Crazy danish782]] 18:29, 6 April 2008 (EDT)

== Biography ==
Hector Garza is a top rudo for [[CMLL]] who seems to be the second-in-charge man of [[Perros del Mal]].

Garza began his career in CMLL as a young highflying tecnico. He was one of the wrestlers who left for [[AAA]] and then WCW (more notables for injuries than success.) When he returned to Mexico, Garza found his way back to AAA.

Hector Garza made a surprise jump to CMLL on [[June 25]], [[2004]], as it appeared to be a money issue more than anything else. Garza immediately allied himself with [[Perro Aguayo Jr.]], and played a role in Perro turning rudo and forming Perros del Mal. Garza plays the set up man in the Perros, building up opponents to face Perro Aguayo Jr., with enough credibility to make it mean something. In 2005, Garza lost his hair in a match with [[Universo 2000]], which built anticipation for the Perro/Universo match. In 2006, Garza lost in a title match to [[Ultimo Guerrero]], which was a major match in the [[Perros del Mal]]/[[Guerreros del Infierino]] rivalry. Garza has also beaten Pierroth for his hair, when [[Pierroth]] tried and failed a coup in Perros del Mal. All the members turned on him, and not even a dozen more Pierroths could save him.

Garza is a very charismatic wrestler. He's got a strong following of female fans. When he wants to, he can be a good wrestler. Other times, he can be one more relying on shtick. His aerial maneuvers - the [[moonsault]] and the [[tornillo]] (both in the ring and out) are still very impressive.

Hector is one of the current [[CMLL World Trios Championship|CMLL Trios Champions]], but the reign was almost immediatly forgotten and the trio has since split.

In [[2004]], while still a part of AAA, Garza was among those on-loan to U.S. promotion [[TNA]] as part of [[Team Mexico]]. Once the Team X-Division concept was abandoned (as an ongoing concept), Garza remained with the promotion as a singles competitor in the mid-card. Hector was in the midst of receiving a push and being set up for a high profile match against Scott Hall, but an arrest for Steroid Possession unfortunately derailed Garza's future with TNA.

=== 2005 Arrest for Steroid Possession ===

On [[January 5]], [[2005]], Hector Garza was arrested for steroid possession in [[Houston]], on the way to a TNA taping. Officers found the drugs Deca-Durabolin [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nandrolone] (an anabolic steroid) and Primobolan [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primobolan] (used between steroid cycles). Those drugs are legal in Mexico, but not in the United States. Garza claimed (and still maintains) he had a legal prescription for the drugs, and later showed it to Mexican magazines as proof of his innocence.

Garza was held on $1000 bail, but opted not to pay on fears he'd be deported to Mexico and not be permitted to return. On [[January 12]], Garza plead guilty to possession of steroids and was sentenced to 15 days in jail. He had already served half that time waiting for the court date, and it's unclear when/if he served the rest. It's also unclear if he has been prohibited from returning the US. Garza has not returned to the US since his arrest, but could be by choice.

Garza would later wear (and sell) t-shirts with the phrase "Si Pepe El Toro es Inocente, Hector Garza Tambien!" (translation: "If Pepe el Toro [http://boards.imdb.com/title/tt0045023/] is innocent, Hector Garza is also".)

== Notes ==

Amapola is [[Dark Angel]]'s foil. It's gotten the biggest push of her career, and it's also cost her mask.

Before [[CMLL]] started a full time women's division, and in it's early days, Amapola seemed to be as a solid->quite good working ruda, one who could hold up her end of the match but wasn't going to be focus of it. She executed her role well, and when the division got reshuffled based on departures, responses and performances, Amapola was suddenly the lead ruda.

From there on, Amapola's been Dark Angel; they were tag team matches in their first match in Arena Mexico, and Amapola feuded with her in anger/resentment for Dark turning tecnica. This was eventually built up to a hair versus mask match. The company was strongly behind Dark Angel, and it wasn't a surprise when Amapola lost her mask.

A mild surprise was Amapola's behavior after losing her mask. A luchador will typically allow all the fans (and the magazines) to get a good look at his/her face. Amapola pulled her mask off and immediately turned away from the fans and the cameras, walking quickly to the backstage area and never allowing most of the fans to see her face. She was brought back to [[Arena Mexico]] the following week, and the fans finally got to see her then, and gave a explanation/apology on that week's [[Guerreros del Ring]] show, but was left off CMLL Mexico City cards for the following weeks, perhaps as punishment.

With the loss of her mask, Amapola still has a grudge against Dark Angel, but has slipped in standing among the CMLL rudas, with [[Hiroka]]'s title victory probably elevating her to top in the group. Amapola is still a good traditional hard working ruda and likely has more successful days to come.

Amapola carries around the [[IWRG Intercontinental Women's Championship|IWRG Women's Championship]], but it's a mystery as to how she got it. It wasn't on an [[IWRG]] card in [[Naucalpan]], and it's unclear if they recognize her as champion. [[Ayako Hamada]] was the last listed champion, and while it's possible (and likely) there was some title change in [[Japan]], no one's been able to find out when or where it happened. She's never defended the championship, but brings it with her to most matches.

CMLL World Women's Championship

2008-03-19T04:35:20Z

Crazy danish782: /* Current Champion */

[[image:cmllwomen.jpg|right]]
== Current Champion ==
{{Gallery|name=Amapolachamp.jpg|caption=[[Amapola]], 12th Champion}} [[Amapola]] is the current champion. She defeated Lady Apache on 2007.11.16 in [[Arena Mexico]].

== History of Championship ==
The CMLL World Women's Champion has been dormant for long stretches of time; women's wrestling has not been consistently promoted by CMLL. From Lady Apache's departure in 2000 to spring 2005, women's matches were rare. (La Diaoblica may have never actually defended the title.) The return of the title and the division were prompted by an increasing popularity of women's wrestling in Arena Mexico, prompted by Canadian wrestler [[Dark Angel]] among others.

Marcela won the championship for the first time on 05/09/16. She defeated [[Dark Angel]], the co-finalist of a cibernetico the previous week and held it for nine months.

Hiroka upset Marcela for the belt. She wasn't considered a top wrestler when she won the belt, but built herself up over the title reign. Her biggest win during the stretch was a non-title hair match with [[Lady Apache]]. It was Lady Apache who'd eventually beat her for the title.

Crazy danish782:

The Espantos are one of those teams that you can't overlook while talking about Mexican wrestling history, however they are an undeservedly often forgotten team by modern Mexican fans and historians, and practically a team of unknowns to English speaking fans.

The Espantos are one of the first "gimmicked trios" to ever be in the world, and they were really popular even though they didn't skyrocket the popularity of six-men tag matches like "[[Los Misioneros de la Muerte]]" ([[Signo]], [[Texano]] and [[Negro Navarro]]). However, Los Misioneros can be compared to Los Espanto in many ways. Both teams always were rudos, but they had such incredible charisma that they could sell out arenas full of fans that would cheer for them: "Los Sustos" or "Los Tinacos", as they were known among the fans (even though those names were given to them by a writer of the sports newspaper La Afición).

The [[Espanto I|first Espanto]], José Eusebio Vázquez Bernal was born in 1933, the [[Espanto II|second Espanto]], Fernando Cisneros Carrillo was born on August 25, 1932, and the younger Espanto, Miguel Vázquez Bernal was born in 1942, all of them in the "Lagunero" city of Torreón, Coahuila. Looking by their last names (Hispanic people have two surnames), can be seen that they all aren't really brothers, only two of them are. So their case can be seen like the one of "Los Hermanos Shadow", [[Blue Demon]] and [[Black Shadow]], though the Espanto relationship was much stronger than the one of the Shadows was. Espanto II isn't a legitimate brother of the other two Espantos, but since childhood, Eusebio and Fernando were like brothers.

Their friendship was born the second year of primary school at the Escuela México (Mexico School) in Torreón. They became best friends and as a kids game they decided to become "brothers"... without even thinking that at one point in life that would become half-true. But even Espanto II's parents, Edgardo Cisneros Díaz and Isabel Carrillo Iñiguez saw Eusebio as one more of their kids - that's how strong the friendship was.

Some time later, after two years of not seeing each other, Eusebio and Fernando met again while doing amateur boxing, discipline in which Fernando had a great performance in the Golden Gloves tournament. After that, both turned out to become professional wrestlers but each one his own way, as before being the famous Espantos, both had to paid their dues.

Espanto II started out wrestling in San Pedro, Coahuila after local wrestler [[El Buitre]]'s suggestion. Though back in Torreón, he had been given the first base training on Olympic (Amateur) and Greco-Roman wrestling by wrestler Maciste. In 1952, and under the name La Furia, Fernando made his debut at the corral of the Palacio de Los Deportes teaming with La Hiena Enmascarada against Pokarito Ramírez and Ventarrón. For that match he was paid five pesos.

Months later, "Chato" Cabral gave him the name of "Toro" Cisneros. In this first stage of his career as a luchador, he found his best friend Torbellino Vázquez (Espanto I) and without even thinking about it in the past, they ended up teaming together. They didn't know that they'd eventually also become one of the best and most famous tag teams of all time in Mexico, either

Being El Torbellino Vázquez in Cd. Juárez, Chihuahua, local promoter Carlos "Gorila" Ramos gave him a mask and named him "El Espanto", and not too late after that, Toro Cisneros joined him and they became Los Hermanos Espanto.

At the time, the most advanced worker of the team was Espanto I, which was getting formal training from Ramos to send him to Mexico City, where he made his debut on December 16, 1959, at Arena Coliseo. In the meanwhile, Espanto II was also getting polished by great local Lagunero star Joe Marín, so he could make it to Mexico City as well.

Finally Los Hermanos Espanto made their debut as a tag team on January 24 of 1961, winning a tag team tournament after teaming [[Tony López]] and [[Kiko Córcega]]. After that debut, they had an undefeated streak of 34 weeks (always on Tuesday), which bumped them directly to the Friday Arena Mexico cards without going first through the seasoning at the Sunday Arena Coliseo shows like most others had to do. As a team, Espanto I and Espanto II were [[Mexican National Tag Team Championship|National tag team champions]] (defeating [[Santo]] and [[Rayo de Jalisco]] in 1966 at Arena México) and also they were featured several times on the official NWA "top 10 tag teams of the world" list. They also were given the chance to wrestle the legendary NWA world heavyweight champion [[Lou Thesz]] in tag team matches - one at Arena Mexico when Thesz teamed with [[Blue Demon]], and one in Puebla where Thesz joined forces with [[Huracán Ramírez]]. Espanto II fondly remembers those bouts as some of the best in his career.

[[Espanto III]] then made his debut in Mexico City's Arena Coliseo on November 13, 1962, either winning a battle royal or defeating [[El Tigre Hispano]] (who is now one of EMLL's lead referees). Also in 1962, the Espantos tag team started teaming regularly with El Santo in an excellent trio, until on Friday June 22, 1962 they broke up in a violent manner. They were wrestling [[Rito Romero]], [[Rayo de Jalisco]] and [[Henry Pilusso]] (who was a replacement for the injured Felipe Ham Lee), and they had a shameful loss in two straight falls. Espanto II got mad at Santo, and gave him a terrible beating. And even that way, Espanto II ended up with his mask shattered and his head was a bloody mess. The two first Espantos also had a successful unit with [[El Gladiador]] and had legendary fights against [[Ray Mendoza]], [[René Guajardo]] and [[Karloff Lagarde]], one of them even went into the locker room (in 1963).

And of course, they also formed a team with the third Espanto, with their biggest win as a team being a win over the dream team of El Santo, Blue Demon and [[Mil Máscaras]], who then was just a beginner getting his big break against the top guns in the national scene.

During the years, Los Hermanos Espanto had on-and-off big feuds with El Santo, [[Rubén Júrez]], Huracán Ramírez, [[Álvaro Velazco]], [[Black Shadow]], [[Antonio Montoro]], Ray Mendoza, [[René Guajardo]], Karloff Lagarde, [[Pantera Blanca]], [[Cavernario Galindo]], [[Dorrel Dixon]], [[Rolando Vera]] and many others, but those were their main opponents.

The first one to lose his mask was Espanto II (against Rubén Juárez, then Espanto I lost it against Santo in a really bloody fight, and finally Espanto III lost his against Huracán Ramírez. When they all were unmasked, the names they gave were their first birth name, with the "Vázquez Cisneros" family names.

May 30, 1968 marked the last time Los Hermanos Espanto I and II teamed together. It was in Monterrey, Nuevo León, facing the Spaniard team of [[Manolo Pollman]] and [[Carlos Moll]]. That night after the matches, Espanto I and [[El Misterio Negro II]] (Popeye Franco) were killed by the owner of a canteen in the heart of the city after a brawl. This was such a big hit for the other two Espantos that it changed their lives and their careers forever. The Espantos I and II had a world tour scheduled to start on June of 1968, where they would go to Germany, France, Spain and then Japan. Espanto II was offered to go alone, but he was so devastated by the death of his best friend that he cancelled it. Bad luck got in their way, as there is little doubt that their tour would have been a total success.

Espanto II kept wrestling during the 70s, but only the weekednds and mostly in the Northern part of Mexico (Monterrey, Nuevo Laredo, Torreón, Cd. Juárez), sometimes Guadalajara, and very rarely Distrito Federal. Often teamed with Espanto III, also becoming [[Northern Tag Team champions]] when defeated [[Tony Reyna]] and [[Ray Cortez]] in Cd. Juárez. He retired in 1979 after a match against [[Gran Hamada]] in Monterrey, and he is still in good health; though on December 8, 1996, Espanto III died in Cd. Juárez, Chihuahua as a consequence of a heart attack.

Years later, and continuing the tradition with the permission of Espanto II, [[Espanto Jr.]] appeared. Espanto Jr. was not a member of either family; he was a really gifted wrestler called Jesús Andrade Salas. Espanto Jr. later wrestled as Santo Negro and Pentagón, but a sad incident finished his lucha career as while wrestling as Pentagón (the original one) he clinically died for a few minutes during a match in Aguascalientes. He was later revived, but he never came back to the ring. That was a side effect of his lifestyle.

Other members of the "family" are [[Espantos IV|Espanto IV]] and [[Espanto V|V]], who are sons of Espanto III and currently are in a semi-retirement status, [[El Espantito]] (mini version) and last but not least, [[Hijo del Espanto I|Los Hijos del Espanto I]] and [[Hijo del Espanto II|II]] (who currently wrestle in the Mexico independent circuit) all under the tutelage of Espanto II. In AAA an Hijos del Espanto tag team appeared (Sergio and César Andrade Salas, brothers of Espanto Jr.) but they were legally taken the name as it they hadn't been given permission to use it by the remaining Espanto, the second one.

'''Aero Star''' (also spelled '''Aerostar''') is a young high flyer, part of [[Real Fuerza Aérea AAA]]. Aero Star is distinguishable by his aviator like mask and his suicidal maneuvers. Besides his (sometimes inaccurate) shooting star press, Aero Star has a no hands tope ([[La Dormilona]]) and a modified springboard reverse tope, almost a reverse cannibal dive. Aero's protective of his moves, and has accused [[CMLL]] wrestlers of stealing from him. Aero's a talented, athletic but still raw wrestler who should keep improving, as long as injuries don't catch up with him.

Aero Star debuted after the death of [[Antonio Pena]] and was promoted as Pena's final creation.

Damian's a member of [[CMLL]]'s [[Perros del Mal]] group, and probably the low man in the group; he's a go to guy when they need someone to lose their hair in [[Mexico City]], although he makes it back up in [[Tijuana]]. With [[Halloween]] out due to neck/knee injuries, he's been teaming up with [[Mr. Aguila]], and is still the same brawling guy with an occasional power move.

== Biography ==
Arturo Díaz Mendoza, Villano III, was born on [[March 23]], [[1950]] in [[Mexico City]] as the third oldest kid of the eight children that lucha libre legend [[Ray Mendoza]] had with his long time wife Guadalupe "Lupita" Mendoza.

Since they were little kids, their father had all the boys in the family participate in several sports, so they'd not be wasting their time doing nothing in the streets. Arturo was a good amateur wrestler, and in July of [[1962]], when he was only 12 years old, won a local amateur tournament in the under 27 kilos (60 pounds) division.

Following the steps of his father, and his two older brothers who already were wrestlers, he started training at the [[Arena Naucalpan]] gym with [[Felipe Ham Lee]] and his father. Mendoza did not want any of his sons to be wrestlers because he did not want them to be hurt all the time like he was, but ended up accepting it since they were living inside the business from a young age. However, one condition that he put on them is that he wanted them to finish a career of their choice, so they'd have something to do if they got injured or had to retire early. Arturo studied at the Escuela Superior de Educacion Fisica (Physical Education High School) where he got a P.E. degree, like his older brother José de Jesús ([[Villano I]]) had gotten a few years before.

One day, a wrestler no-showed an undercard spot at [[Arena Neza]] where he was hanging out and training, and the wrestlers at the locker room suggested Arturo to work as a replacement. He was not sure of it, because he was far from ready, but since everybody was cheering him on it, he did it. Using no mask, and the name Ray Rosas, he made his debut on that [[January 29]] of [[1970]]. He was green, but those who saw him labeled him as having so much class for somebody at his level.

From then on, he used several names like Pulpo Blanco (White Octopus), Mancha Roja (Red Stain), Búfalo Salvaje (Wild Buffalo - which was the name his two older brothers used in a tag team), but he the one he used the most during that era was Rokambole (which was the name his brother [[Villano V]] would use several years later during his rookie years).

In January of [[1973]] it was considered that he was ready to pick up the family name, so he switched to Villano III, debuting as such at Arena Naucalpan, which has been sort of a family base for years as that's the arena where each and every one of the five brothers got their seasoning and their first push. In [[1974]] he captured the Welterweight division titles of Mexico State and Naucalpan, getting his first, and definitely not last, taste of gold in the business.

As a rudo, V3 was considered to be a "natural" for the business and a good worker from the start. By 1975 he got his first big break in the business when his father and long time friends [[René Guajardo]] and [[Karloff Lagarde]], along with many other major stars, joined forces with promoter [[Francisco Flores|Francisco J. Flores]] and started the independent movement. One of the reasons why Mendoza left [[EMLL]] was that the new office (Lutteroth had stepped out and let his son [[Salvador Lutteroth Jr.|Salvador Jr.]], and nephew [[Paco Alonso]] run the office by themselves) was not very interested in pushing [[Villano I|Villanos I]] and [[Villano II|II]], and probably III had he been working for them more often. Still, Villano would go on and debut at [[Arena Coliseo]] on [[November 19]], [[1975]] and at [[Arena Mexico]] on [[March 2]], [[1976]], but he never had continuity in EMLL's major arenas.

In [[1975]], because he was very affordable and he was such a good worker, many of the smaller arenas of the [[UWA]] network used him as a headliner for many profitable shows where they'd build to mask vs. hair or mask matches with the local stars, who would lose to the new independent sensation. The most famous of his opponents were [[Memo Ventura]], [[La Cobra]], [[The Corzo Brothers]] and [[Lobo Rubio]], the later being his foe in a mask vs. hair opener at the big supershow at [[Plaza Mexico]] that was headlined by [[Mil Mascaras]] vs. [[Lou Thesz]] (and that tanked badly because of a huge rainstorm).

By the end of the year (December), his hard work (and why not, a bit of family connections) paid off and he became the initial [[UWA World Welterweight championship|UWA World Welterweight champion]] by defeating legendary welterweight [[Huracán Ramírez]] (and not [[Solar I]] like some title histories say). He feuded with Solar I around the belt on and off for two years until May of [[1977]], when he was beat for it by the young up-and-comer.

During these years, and until he became a bigger star later, his biggest archievent was taking the masks of [[Los Escorpiones]] ([[Raul Reyes]] -not the L.A. one- and [[Benny Romero]]), a famous team that worked not only in Mexico, but also in the USA and Puerto Rico. That night, [[August 13]] of [[1978]], his tag team partner was [[Bobby Lee]], the young and talented performer who months later became famous as [[El Santo]]'s final major singles opponent... and who ended up being a "what could have been" as his career was ended way short by injuries.

Even though he already had won several ones in the past, this was Villano's first major (realistically, semi-major) "lucha de apuestas" win.

Villano III teaming up with other young superworkers, such as [[Matematico]], was a thing you could often see in the main event of some of the small or mid-sized venues of the network of independent promoters in Mexico. This helped him build a reputation as one of the top workers in the country, at a time when in Mexico there was more and better wrestlers than at probably any point in lucha libre history.

He became a much bigger star in the early 80s, to be more exact, 1981. He had already been working at [[El Toreo]] for some time, often teaming with his father Ray Mendoza or his brothers Villanos I and II. While he worked as a rudo, he was a rudo that fans liked to cheer... even more so when he was teaming with his father, who due to his legendary status just would not get booed. But he really caught everybody's attention on [[March 1]], [[1981]], by defeating [[Fishman]] at [[El Toreo]] to win the [[UWA World Light Heavyweight Title]]. This win was a huge deal, because of several things.

First, the Light Heavyweight Title was the second most important title in the country. Second, it was "his father's title". During years and years, Mendoza had been the reigning [[NWA World Light Heavyweight championship|NWA World Light Heavyweight champ]] at [[Arena Mexico]], and while it was not the same belt, it symbolically had been continuing that tradition (and either way, Mendoza was a three time former UWA LHW champ). And last but not least, he had beaten a major star cleanly for it. Back then, Fishman was much higher than Villano III at the totem pole and was a highly regarded technical wrestler. Villano lost the title just four months later, on [[July 19]] at the same venue, but the point had been already made.

While during El Toreo's golden years Fishman was the eternal UWA World LHW champion or challenger, V3 would become the dominant face of the [[WWF World Light Heavyweight title]], born out of the association of [[LLI]] and the [[World Wrestling Federation]]. Due to the excellent matches around that title with people like [[Perro Aguayo]], [[Gran Hamada]], Villano III and Fishman himself, that title actually surpassed in importance its equivalent with the UWA name. During years (and realistically, almost until the death of the promotion), the belt was the centerpiece of most of the greatest matches ever seen in [[Naucalpan]], including bouts against Perro Aguayo ([[1983]]) and [[Brazo de Oro]] ([[1984]]) that were voted "Match of the year" by the magazines "[[Lucha Libre (magazine)|Lucha Libre]]" and "[[El Halcon (magazine)|El Halcon]]", respectively.

But let's get to what really was the turning point in Villano III's career. Ever since the Fishman win, after proving himself time after time to the fans, and with the public recognition of being the son of a legend who was living up to his father's standards (and many said, even surpassing them, in terms of work quality), he started getting cheered time after time.

The gameplan of bookers Francisco J. Flores and [[Carlos Maynez]] was simple, but worked like a charm. Villano was put in week after week against the hottest rudo trio at the time (and probably ever), Los Misioneros de la Muerte: [[El Signo]], [[Negro Navarro]] and [[El Texano]]. They would beat him up badly week after week, tearing up his mask and making him bleed. In fact, he got some of those ugly scars all over his body from those wild days, because to cause a more dramatic effect, in a technique he copied from his father, he would blade not only his forehead, but his arms and chin as well. He eventually got fed up with the Misioneros' treatment, and challenged the trio's leader, El Signo, to a hair vs. hair match.

On [[August 1]], [[1982]], he defeated Signo in front of a sold out crowd of 18,000 (apx.), and after the win, the babyface reaction he got was nothing short of deafening. Right after Signo's loss, El Texano, who was the youngest member of the team, challenged Villano and suffered the same face two weeks later, on August 15, though this time the match was at the nicer looking [[Palacio de los Deportes]] in [[Mexico City]]. It was reported in the magazines to be a classic, and the crowd was said to be very healthy, in the 15,000 range, even with a major Toreo show the same day with the return of [[Abdullah the Butcher]] to Mexico, teaming with Perro Aguayo against Ray Mendoza and [[Carlos Colón]] in what was pushed in the magazines as a sure-to-be bloody showdown.

That's right, the same company put out two major shows the same day and in the same market, and both were a success at the gate. Because business was so hot, major stars like Villano III, Perro Aguayo, Texano and attractions like Abdullah were able to drag a huge number of the same fans to both shows. This was far from being a weekly happening, but they often had "must see" matches at Palacio on Sunday, while having the usual loaded Toreo show (whose weekly average for normal shows would be around 11,000), and if the cards were special enough the fans would go to both venues because they could not afford missing either show.

Those two major wins were followed up with Villano III going to [[New Japan]] (back when this was considered a huge deal by the fans) to wrestle [[Tiger Mask]]. Actually, this was his second tour there. On [[September 3]] he challenged Tiger in Fukuoka for the [[WWF World Junior Heavyweight Title]], falling victim to the legendary Japanese flyer in only seven minutes. It was a hot match with very good action, though way too short. But they worked well together and some months later, in November, they had another match together at El Toreo. This one was longer and went three falls, but the result was the same.

Him coming back from a Japan tour sealed the deal, and he now "officially" was a tecnico. It also helped that he was put in a team with [[El Solitario]] and [[Anibal]] (two of the biggest masked stars ever in Mexico) as his partners or "godfathers", named "Los Tres Caballeros" (The Three Gentlemen) with the gimmick of being super hero scientific masters who never cheated and defeated their enemies with grace, class and technique. In [[1984]] there was a second version of this team with [[Dos Caras]] replacing El Solitario.

But now Villano III being a top tecnico meant that he was bound to feud with Perro Aguayo, the company's top singles light heavyweight rudo (and top overall rudo along with [[Canek]]). On [[March 20]], [[1983]], he captured the [[WWF World Light Heavyweight Title]] from Aguayo, building a bitter rivalry with the [[Zacatecas]] native. By August things had heated up so much that they had a three match series that did amazing business at the Naucalpan bullring. The 7th, Aguayo defeated V3 for the WWF LHW title. A week later, they faced in a super libre match, that ended up being a bloodfest. And the 21th, V3 defeated Aguayo in a mask vs. hair match.

In [[1984]] he continued on the same road, drawing greatly for title matches against a variety of opponents, to the point the promotion considered him the MVP in their year end awards.

Measuring who drew and who didn't at El Toreo is a very hard task. The promotion had access to a varied collection of native stars (both homemade stars and 60s and 70s legends who were still around) and foreign attractions ([[Tiger Mask]], [[Antonio Inoki|Inoki]], [[Andre the Giant|Andre]]...). They also had some of the fastest workers Mexico had ever seen until then, in people like [[Matematico]], [[Black Man]], [[Super Astro]] and other small guys who did things that had never been seen before and drew the "workrate" audience. The promotion could choose from, and I'm not exagerating here, a "pool" of 25 or 30 different wrestlers, put them in the main event, load up the rest of card and draw 10,000 to 12,000 easily.

For instance, there was shows that were so loaded, that the man who is considered to be the biggest star from those days, Canek, would be in the third match of a five match card, and Ray Mendoza would be in the opener. It's a very clear case of a "promotional package" being the draw, rather than "individuals". However, you could see how the true draws would be in special matches and up the attendance to 14,000 or more for title matches, and 17,000 or more for hair or mask matches. And when Aguayo and Villano were on top against each other, the attendance always was visibly up from the average.

The Aguayo-Villano feud carried on for most of the decade, and when at one point in 1988 they teamed together to feud and unmask the Black Power tag team (standard American rudo gimmick... one of them later was [[El Indomito]] a.k.a. [[Coco Amarillo]] from the AAA Payasos), it was a huge deal because the alliance was a true arch-rival dream team.

The other two biggest opponents for Villano in the 80s were [[Sangre Chicana]] and [[Rambo]].

José Luis Mendienta was a really talented second generation wrestler with a good look, who had a nice run with EMLL in the late 70s. Even though he was given the [[National Middleweight Title]] (who had a lot of tradition as El Santo's title) and given big profile title defenses against major stars like Anibal and [[Enrique Vera]], he seemed to lack the charisma needed to be a top star and draw. The company had sort of given up on him and he pretty much disappeared, returning back home and working only in his home state of [[Sonora]], and sometimes in Arizona or Texas, until his friend [[Kahoz]] (formerly Astro Rey, who had been repackaged as a rudo with a weird and unique white mask with black details and yellow or white hair sticking out) convinced him to get a new gimmick, with the promise of a spot in El Toreo. He became Rambo, named after you know what movie, wearing military clothes and wearing either a dark green or a camouflage mask. Mendieta and Kahoz teamed with [[Cuchillo]], and later [[Zandokan]] (who had a masked pirate gimmick), as "El Triangulo del Terror" (Triangle of Terror) and became one of the top old school rudo trios around the country. He eventually engaged in a feud with Villano over the masks, losing his' at El Toreo's "Lucha Libre birth" anniversary show on [[September 25]], [[1987]]. The match was heated, bloody, and got rave reviews as one of the best matches of the year.

Chicana was one of the 5 major stars at Arena Mexico and Arena Coliseo, and a wild brawling rudo along the lines of [[Cavernario Galindo]] and Perro Aguayo, though probably a better worker than either. He had even represented EMLL at shows at El Toreo, and teaming with [[Cien Caras]] or [[Satanico]], and gone over major stars like Aguayo, Fishman and Canek. So, added to the curiosity of two major stars clashing, you had a little interpromotional flair. On [[August 14]], [[1989]], Chicana defeated Villano for the WWF LHW title, but after and before that match, both had battled all over the country, having great brawls and drawing nice numbers, especially in the Northern Circuit ([[Monterrey]] and [[Nuevo Laredo]]) working for [[Carlos Elizondo]], as Chicana was a huge star there. The only thing that this feud lacked to be remembered as one of Villano's high career points was a mask vs. hair match, but Chicana was too busy losing his hair to Aguayo for bigger payoffs (since the matches, even though not as good, were bloodier and the rivalry seemed more natural).

The most remarkable feud he had during the last Toreo days was with [[Pegasus Kid]] ([[Chris Benoit]]) who is considered one of the best workers ever by practically everybody in the business. The masked Pegasus, now a WWE headliner with his real name, was a world nomad who would regularly work in Canada, Europe, Japan, the U.S. and Mexico. Benoit was put right away in a feud with Villano III, who he defeated on [[March 3]], [[1991]] at El Toreo for the WWF World Light Heavyweight Title.

Thinking that it was not likely he'd come back, Pegasus lost his mask to Villano III on [[November 3]], [[1991]]. But Benoit liked wrestling at El Toreo, and he caused such a good impression with the office that they called him back some months later (he had other commitments in Japan) so they could revive the feud. Other remarkable Toreo bouts during the rivalry were the [[January 19]], [[1992]] dream match where Villano teamed with [[El Hijo del Santo]] to defeat Pegasus and [[Negro Casas]], and Pegasus retaining the WWF belt a week later in the main event of the "17th Anniversary Show" of the promotion. By the end of it, the feud had turned into a trios feud, as Villanos would face Pegasus and his team partners Los Cowboys ([[Silver King]] and [[Texano]]). It basically culminated on [[September 13]], [[1992]] when Arturo gained back his WWF title.

Arturo was a top star and headliner at El Toreo until nearly its demise, but after Francisco Flores' death, booking and management got to bad that everybody who just stayed working there got lost in the shuffle: and that includes Dos Caras, Canek, Signo and Navarro (Texano was smart and/or lucky enough to get his career going in Japan teaming with Silver King). Some loyalists who were big (but not legendary) names and stayed until the end, never worked anywhere else at the same level again, like Enrique Vera. So Villano tried to keep his name fresh, working spot shows at Arena Mexico and Coliseo, and then jumping to [[AAA]] on January of [[1993]].

In AAA, Villano always worked main events and semi-main events, except in rare occasions (like [[Triplemania]], where even Santo Jr. was in the first half of the card), and feuded with Rambo, this time building to a hair vs. mask match that was hold at Mexico City's [[Gimnasio Juan de la Barrera]], on [[September 24]], [[1993]]. As a weird trivia data, the two first Villano III vs. Rambo "lucha de apuestas" (there was a third one on June [[2001]] in Naucalpan, this one hair vs. hair) were main eventing shows that commemorated the "anniversary of Lucha Libre", which is another way of saying "the birth of EMLL", but neither match was on EMLL and instead happened in the company's direct competitor at the time.

Soon after that match, Villano III quit because he was not happy with his push, and worked UWA again even though the place was a sinking ship and even drew a really sad 1,750 attendance for the January 1994 [[UWA]] Anniversary Show, headlined by Villanos 3 & 5 and [[Yamato (UWA)|Yamato]] (Tiger Chung Lee/Kim Duk) vs. Canek, [[Transformer]] (Kendo) and Gran Hamada, and with a rest of the card so uninteresting and not even worth of [[Arena Neza]] B-show status.

The promotion, however, started co-promoting with AAA and it revitalized business when they held matches like Villano and Canek vs. [[Konnan]] and Perro Aguayo (drawing 7,500 at El Toreo on May 94), and popped up business again at Arena Neza, getting regular attendances of 3,000 when the interpromotional concept was on.

But this relationship died off quickly, because the Toreo guys weren't "up to do business" (a few of the top wrestlers did not want to be jobbed out with "nothing in exchange" even though without the AAA guys, attendance would have been bad). So the Toreo promotion instead co-promoted with AAA's main rival, CMLL (formerly EMLL), that probably would be more open to "business", because they also needed the help. Villano worked a couple of shows for CMLL, but it was more of the same. UWA was practically dead and eventually ceased operations, not having a single show in January 95. Many of the guys jumped to CMLL, but as "CMLL guys" so to speak, not as "UWA guys". Others, like Villano III and his two younger brothers, jumped to AAA after a short stay in the ill-fated [[PROMELL]].

PROMELL was the first time ever where the three younger sons of Ray Mendoza became a regular team, because during the whole Toreo run (except for some special matches, mostly during the 92-94 bad period) the team was Villanos I & IV & V, while III was positionited higher on the cards as a singles wrestler. The three brothers had teamed up quite often at El Toreo during [[1994]], but Villano III most of the time still was slotted in the cards higher than his brothers were.

In AAA, the Villanos were positioned right into the main events, often teaming with Fishman as a symbolic "Team Toreo" (though never billed as such) against Santo, Konnan, Aguayo, and the other top main event tecnicos that Peña's promotion had to offer. They had a good run and some nice feuds and matches, but nothing like in the "glory days". During periods of time the team had no contiuity due to injuries, and that hurt them in the end, as they never really had the chance to have a stand-out feud during their AAA run. Their two major feuds were vs. [[Los Hermanos Dinamitas|Dinamitas]] and [[Los Payasos|Payasos]], and neither was impressive. And even though they were given the [[AAA Americas Trios titles]] (defeating the makeshift team of [[Heavy Metal]], [[Latin Lover]] and [[Cien Caras]] on [[March 8]], [[1996]] at [[Arena Neza]]), they left the promotion with the belts after having never defended them (even though they lated defended them in [[IWRG]]). They were also AAA Atomicos (eight men) champions with [[Pierroth Jr.]], with those belts suffering a similar fate.

On January 96, the three brothers jumped to [[Promo Azteca]] with the promise of more money and a spot for the two younger brothers in [[WCW]], but this was even worse. Though the whole promotion was a mess and there's not a lot of good to remember from it. When his brothers left for the US on July of [[1997]], Arturo kept basically wandering around Promo, and teamed with them when they were back home in between working for WCW. And again, he did nothing there, because the promotion only seemed to throw together eight guys in a match, with no rhyme or reason. Even though each and every one of those main eventers was either a draw or a great worker (and sometimes both), the matches did not draw and most of the time were as terrible and disorganized as lucha libre can get.

On July of [[1998]], Villano III joined CMLL. The month before that, he'd been on a long Japanese tour with [[FULL]], mostly working with CMLL talent. Villano's jump was something that back in the mid 80s nobody would have imagined, but since years had gone by, there was no major impact. He worked as a main event rudo as part of Pierroth's Boricuas stable, with [[Fuerza Guerrera]] and others.

In a major shock, Villano III unmasked [[Super Astro]] on a 1999 Christmas card at the [[Auditorio de Tijuana]]. The news was quite a surprise both because there had been no major build up for a match of such magnitude between two of the 80s biggest Toreo stars, and because the actual match was [[Fishman ]]and [[Lizmark]] vs. Villano III and Super Astro in "relevos suicidas", and everybody was sure Fishman would be the one losing, as it was common knowledge he was willing to drop the mask for a big paycheck.

During the Summer of [[1999]], Villano started his famous feud with [[Atlantis]]. The feud had been started around September of the previous year, but nothing happened at the time. There was a several months long build-up, featuring many matches around the [[CMLL World Light Heavyweight title]] that Atlantis had, and Villano eventually captured, as well as a hint of a mask vs. mask match on the company's 66th Anniversary Show on [[September 24]], [[1999]], where Atlantis and Villano III defeated [[Mr. Niebla]] and [[Shocker]] (with the latter finally dropping his mask).

They eventually faced each other on [[March 17]], [[2000]] at Arena Mexico in a classic máscara contra máscara bout that Atlantis won, revealing Villano III to be Arturo Díaz Mendoza. The bout, which was the feature match for CMLL's first PPV event, sold out Arena Mexico and won WON's Match of the Year honors. The match had incredible drama and heat, and super work and psychology, as well as one of the best major match finishes in recent lucha libre history, and it truly is one of the 10 biggest mask vs. mask matches ever in Mexico.

It's interesting to note that Villano III was originally thought to be losing his mask vs. [[Anibal]] in the late 80s, at the [[Monumental de Monterrey]] under Carlos Elizondo, but apparently, he was asking for a money sum out of this world, which reading between the lines tells us that he realized it was not the right time to lose the hood.

Villano III's unmasking revealed a facially old and beaten up man, who resembled his father during his latest run at El Toreo. After a series of TV skits, where Villano, still a rudo, thanked the fans and his father for all the great moments in his career, a turn could be seen coming a mile away. Pierroth then "fired him" from the Boricuas as, for weeks, Villano refused to get involved in massive post-match tecnico beatings, even though he did not help either. So Boricuas eventually turned on him, with the claims he'd turned "soft". So we had Arturo debuting as a tecnico on [[April 28]] teaming with none other than his two former nemesis, Atlantis and Perro Aguayo, against Pierroth, Shocker and [[Mascara Año 2000]].

This gave a new life to Arturo's career, and during the first months he had in fact came out as the major winner of the mask vs. mask match. Had a several months long feud with against Pierroth and Máscara 2000, teaming with Aguayo, and eventually taking out Jesús Reyes' hair in a cage match on [[August 4]].

By this point Villano still was a good worker, but his skills were diminishing quickly due to age and all the injuries he'd suffered due to working a highly demanding style during decades. The family also suffered a major blow when the older brother, José de Jesus, who worked as Villano I, died on [[January 4]], [[2001]], with the cause of death being a brain hemorrhage. This was the third major loss in the family, after the deaths of mother Lupita in [[1986]], and the [[1989]] death of brother José Alfredo (Villano II), which was publicized as being due wrestling injuries but during years has been rumoured to have been a suicide.

A few months after Ray Mendoza's death, The Villano family had a bitter departure from CMLL, citing their non existant push as the reason for it. During interviews, they claimed that they weren't even getting enough dates to sustain their families, so they became independent contractors. The brothers still work all over the Republic, even though they aren't such stars any longer, nor are they the superworkers they used to be, though the younger ones still are very competent wrestlers. Villano III can still work a good mat-based match, but due to age and injuries, he's lost his famous quickness and explosive timing.

Villano III, sadly, looks like somebody who is overstaying his welcome, and would have put on a classier end to a fantastic career should have retired after a year or year and a half-long tour as an unmasked babyface. At this point, unless he makes amends and returns to CMLL, he probably won't even have a major retirement party, should he retire any time soon.

== Biography ==
Arturo Díaz Mendoza, Villano III, was born on [[March 23]], [[1950]] in [[Mexico City]] as the third oldest kid of the eight children that lucha libre legend [[Ray Mendoza]] had with his long time wife Guadalupe "Lupita" Mendoza.

Since they were little kids, their father had all the boys in the family participate in several sports, so they'd not be wasting their time doing nothing in the streets. Arturo was a good amateur wrestler, and in July of [[1962]], when he was only 12 years old, won a local amateur tournament in the under 27 kilos (60 pounds) division.

Following the steps of his father, and his two older brothers who already were wrestlers, he started training at the [[Arena Naucalpan]] gym with [[Felipe Ham Lee]] and his father. Mendoza did not want any of his sons to be wrestlers because he did not want them to be hurt all the time like he was, but ended up accepting it since they were living inside the business from a young age. However, one condition that he put on them is that he wanted them to finish a career of their choice, so they'd have something to do if they got injured or had to retire early. Arturo studied at the Escuela Superior de Educacion Fisica (Physical Education High School) where he got a P.E. degree, like his older brother José de Jesús ([[Villano I]]) had gotten a few years before.

One day, a wrestler no-showed an undercard spot at [[Arena Neza]] where he was hanging out and training, and the wrestlers at the locker room suggested Arturo to work as a replacement. He was not sure of it, because he was far from ready, but since everybody was cheering him on it, he did it. Using no mask, and the name Ray Rosas, he made his debut on that [[January 29]] of [[1970]]. He was green, but those who saw him labeled him as having so much class for somebody at his level.

From then on, he used several names like Pulpo Blanco (White Octopus), Mancha Roja (Red Stain), Búfalo Salvaje (Wild Buffalo - which was the name his two older brothers used in a tag team), but he the one he used the most during that era was Rokambole (which was the name his brother [[Villano V]] would use several years later during his rookie years).

In January of [[1973]] it was considered that he was ready to pick up the family name, so he switched to Villano III, debuting as such at Arena Naucalpan, which has been sort of a family base for years as that's the arena where each and every one of the five brothers got their seasoning and their first push. In [[1974]] he captured the Welterweight division titles of Mexico State and Naucalpan, getting his first, and definitely not last, taste of gold in the business.

As a rudo, V3 was considered to be a "natural" for the business and a good worker from the start. By 1975 he got his first big break in the business when his father and long time friends [[René Guajardo]] and [[Karloff Lagarde]], along with many other major stars, joined forces with promoter [[Francisco Flores|Francisco J. Flores]] and started the independent movement. One of the reasons why Mendoza left [[EMLL]] was that the new office (Lutteroth had stepped out and let his son [[Salvador Lutteroth Jr.|Salvador Jr.]], and nephew [[Paco Alonso]] run the office by themselves) was not very interested in pushing [[Villano I|Villanos I]] and [[Villano II|II]], and probably III had he been working for them more often. Still, Villano would go on and debut at [[Arena Coliseo]] on [[November 19]], [[1975]] and at [[Arena Mexico]] on [[March 2]], [[1976]], but he never had continuity in EMLL's major arenas.

In [[1975]], because he was very affordable and he was such a good worker, many of the smaller arenas of the [[UWA]] network used him as a headliner for many profitable shows where they'd build to mask vs. hair or mask matches with the local stars, who would lose to the new independent sensation. The most famous of his opponents were [[Memo Ventura]], [[La Cobra]], [[The Corzo Brothers]] and [[Lobo Rubio]], the later being his foe in a mask vs. hair opener at the big supershow at [[Plaza Mexico]] that was headlined by [[Mil Mascaras]] vs. [[Lou Thesz]] (and that tanked badly because of a huge rainstorm).

By the end of the year (December), his hard work (and why not, a bit of family connections) paid off and he became the initial [[UWA World Welterweight championship|UWA World Welterweight champion]] by defeating legendary welterweight [[Huracán Ramírez]] (and not [[Solar I]] like some title histories say). He feuded with Solar I around the belt on and off for two years until May of [[1977]], when he was beat for it by the young up-and-comer.

During these years, and until he became a bigger star later, his biggest archievent was taking the masks of [[Los Escorpiones]] ([[Raul Reyes]] -not the L.A. one- and [[Benny Romero]]), a famous team that worked not only in Mexico, but also in the USA and Puerto Rico. That night, [[August 13]] of [[1978]], his tag team partner was [[Bobby Lee]], the young and talented performer who months later became famous as [[El Santo]]'s final major singles opponent... and who ended up being a "what could have been" as his career was ended way short by injuries.

Even though he already had won several ones in the past, this was Villano's first major (realistically, semi-major) "lucha de apuestas" win.

Villano III teaming up with other young superworkers, such as [[Matematico]], was a thing you could often see in the main event of some of the small or mid-sized venues of the network of independent promoters in Mexico. This helped him build a reputation as one of the top workers in the country, at a time when in Mexico there was more and better wrestlers than at probably any point in lucha libre history.

He became a much bigger star in the early 80s, to be more exact, 1981. He had already been working at [[El Toreo]] for some time, often teaming with his father Ray Mendoza or his brothers Villanos I and II. While he worked as a rudo, he was a rudo that fans liked to cheer... even more so when he was teaming with his father, who due to his legendary status just would not get booed. But he really caught everybody's attention on [[March 1]], [[1981]], by defeating [[Fishman]] at [[El Toreo]] to win the [[UWA World Light Heavyweight Title]]. This win was a huge deal, because of several things.

First, the Light Heavyweight Title was the second most important title in the country. Second, it was "his father's title". During years and years, Mendoza had been the reigning [[NWA World Light Heavyweight championship|NWA World Light Heavyweight champ]] at [[Arena Mexico]], and while it was not the same belt, it symbolically had been continuing that tradition (and either way, Mendoza was a three time former UWA LHW champ). And last but not least, he had beaten a major star cleanly for it. Back then, Fishman was much higher than Villano III at the totem pole and was a highly regarded technical wrestler. Villano lost the title just four months later, on [[July 19]] at the same venue, but the point had been already made.

While during El Toreo's golden years Fishman was the eternal UWA World LHW champion or challenger, V3 would become the dominant face of the [[WWF World Light Heavyweight title]], born out of the association of [[LLI]] and the [[World Wrestling Federation]]. Due to the excellent matches around that title with people like [[Perro Aguayo]], [[Gran Hamada]], Villano III and Fishman himself, that title actually surpassed in importance its equivalent with the UWA name. During years (and realistically, almost until the death of the promotion), the belt was the centerpiece of most of the greatest matches ever seen in [[Naucalpan]], including bouts against Perro Aguayo ([[1983]]) and [[Brazo de Oro]] ([[1984]]) that were voted "Match of the year" by the magazines "[[Lucha Libre (magazine)|Lucha Libre]]" and "[[El Halcon (magazine)|El Halcon]]", respectively.

But let's get to what really was the turning point in Villano III's career. Ever since the Fishman win, after proving himself time after time to the fans, and with the public recognition of being the son of a legend who was living up to his father's standards (and many said, even surpassing them, in terms of work quality), he started getting cheered time after time.

The gameplan of bookers Francisco J. Flores and [[Carlos Maynez]] was simple, but worked like a charm. Villano was put in week after week against the hottest rudo trio at the time (and probably ever), Los Misioneros de la Muerte: [[El Signo]], [[Negro Navarro]] and [[El Texano]]. They would beat him up badly week after week, tearing up his mask and making him bleed. In fact, he got some of those ugly scars all over his body from those wild days, because to cause a more dramatic effect, in a technique he copied from his father, he would blade not only his forehead, but his arms and chin as well. He eventually got fed up with the Misioneros' treatment, and challenged the trio's leader, El Signo, to a hair vs. hair match.

On [[August 1]], [[1982]], he defeated Signo in front of a sold out crowd of 18,000 (apx.), and after the win, the babyface reaction he got was nothing short of deafening. Right after Signo's loss, El Texano, who was the youngest member of the team, challenged Villano and suffered the same face two weeks later, on August 15, though this time the match was at the nicer looking [[Palacio de los Deportes]] in [[Mexico City]]. It was reported in the magazines to be a classic, and the crowd was said to be very healthy, in the 15,000 range, even with a major Toreo show the same day with the return of [[Abdullah the Butcher]] to Mexico, teaming with Perro Aguayo against Ray Mendoza and [[Carlos Colón]] in what was pushed in the magazines as a sure-to-be bloody showdown.

That's right, the same company put out two major shows the same day and in the same market, and both were a success at the gate. Because business was so hot, major stars like Villano III, Perro Aguayo, Texano and attractions like Abdullah were able to drag a huge number of the same fans to both shows. This was far from being a weekly happening, but they often had "must see" matches at Palacio on Sunday, while having the usual loaded Toreo show (whose weekly average for normal shows would be around 11,000), and if the cards were special enough the fans would go to both venues because they could not afford missing either show.

Those two major wins were followed up with Villano III going to [[New Japan]] (back when this was considered a huge deal by the fans) to wrestle [[Tiger Mask]]. Actually, this was his second tour there. On [[September 3]] he challenged Tiger in Fukuoka for the [[WWF World Junior Heavyweight Title]], falling victim to the legendary Japanese flyer in only seven minutes. It was a hot match with very good action, though way too short. But they worked well together and some months later, in November, they had another match together at El Toreo. This one was longer and went three falls, but the result was the same.

Him coming back from a Japan tour sealed the deal, and he now "officially" was a tecnico. It also helped that he was put in a team with [[El Solitario]] and [[Anibal]] (two of the biggest masked stars ever in Mexico) as his partners or "godfathers", named "Los Tres Caballeros" (The Three Gentlemen) with the gimmick of being super hero scientific masters who never cheated and defeated their enemies with grace, class and technique. In [[1984]] there was a second version of this team with [[Dos Caras]] replacing El Solitario.

But now Villano III being a top tecnico meant that he was bound to feud with Perro Aguayo, the company's top singles light heavyweight rudo (and top overall rudo along with [[Canek]]). On [[March 20]], [[1983]], he captured the [[WWF World Light Heavyweight Title]] from Aguayo, building a bitter rivalry with the [[Zacatecas]] native. By August things had heated up so much that they had a three match series that did amazing business at the Naucalpan bullring. The 7th, Aguayo defeated V3 for the WWF LHW title. A week later, they faced in a super libre match, that ended up being a bloodfest. And the 21th, V3 defeated Aguayo in a mask vs. hair match.

In [[1984]] he continued on the same road, drawing greatly for title matches against a variety of opponents, to the point the promotion considered him the MVP in their year end awards.

Measuring who drew and who didn't at El Toreo is a very hard task. The promotion had access to a varied collection of native stars (both homemade stars and 60s and 70s legends who were still around) and foreign attractions ([[Tiger Mask]], [[Antonio Inoki|Inoki]], [[Andre the Giant|Andre]]...). They also had some of the fastest workers Mexico had ever seen until then, in people like [[Matematico]], [[Black Man]], [[Super Astro]] and other small guys who did things that had never been seen before and drew the "workrate" audience. The promotion could choose from, and I'm not exagerating here, a "pool" of 25 or 30 different wrestlers, put them in the main event, load up the rest of card and draw 10,000 to 12,000 easily.

For instance, there was shows that were so loaded, that the man who is considered to be the biggest star from those days, Canek, would be in the third match of a five match card, and Ray Mendoza would be in the opener. It's a very clear case of a "promotional package" being the draw, rather than "individuals". However, you could see how the true draws would be in special matches and up the attendance to 14,000 or more for title matches, and 17,000 or more for hair or mask matches. And when Aguayo and Villano were on top against each other, the attendance always was visibly up from the average.

The Aguayo-Villano feud carried on for most of the decade, and when at one point in 1988 they teamed together to feud and unmask the Black Power tag team (standard American rudo gimmick... one of them later was [[El Indomito]] a.k.a. [[Coco Amarillo]] from the AAA Payasos), it was a huge deal because the alliance was a true arch-rival dream team.

The other two biggest opponents for Villano in the 80s were [[Sangre Chicana]] and [[Rambo]].

José Luis Mendienta was a really talented second generation wrestler with a good look, who had a nice run with EMLL in the late 70s. Even though he was given the [[National Middleweight Title]] (who had a lot of tradition as El Santo's title) and given big profile title defenses against major stars like Anibal and [[Enrique Vera]], he seemed to lack the charisma needed to be a top star and draw. The company had sort of given up on him and he pretty much disappeared, returning back home and working only in his home state of [[Sonora]], and sometimes in Arizona or Texas, until his friend [[Kahoz]] (formerly Astro Rey, who had been repackaged as a rudo with a weird and unique white mask with black details and yellow or white hair sticking out) convinced him to get a new gimmick, with the promise of a spot in El Toreo. He became Rambo, named after you know what movie, wearing military clothes and wearing either a dark green or a camouflage mask. Mendieta and Kahoz teamed with [[Cuchillo]], and later [[Zandokan]] (who had a masked pirate gimmick), as "El Triangulo del Terror" (Triangle of Terror) and became one of the top old school rudo trios around the country. He eventually engaged in a feud with Villano over the masks, losing his' at El Toreo's "Lucha Libre birth" anniversary show on [[September 25]], [[1987]]. The match was heated, bloody, and got rave reviews as one of the best matches of the year.

Chicana was one of the 5 major stars at Arena Mexico and Arena Coliseo, and a wild brawling rudo along the lines of [[Cavernario Galindo]] and Perro Aguayo, though probably a better worker than either. He had even represented EMLL at shows at El Toreo, and teaming with [[Cien Caras]] or [[Satanico]], and gone over major stars like Aguayo, Fishman and Canek. So, added to the curiosity of two major stars clashing, you had a little interpromotional flair. On [[August 14]], [[1989]], Chicana defeated Villano for the WWF LHW title, but after and before that match, both had battled all over the country, having great brawls and drawing nice numbers, especially in the Northern Circuit ([[Monterrey]] and [[Nuevo Laredo]]) working for [[Carlos Elizondo]], as Chicana was a huge star there. The only thing that this feud lacked to be remembered as one of Villano's high career points was a mask vs. hair match, but Chicana was too busy losing his hair to Aguayo for bigger payoffs (since the matches, even though not as good, were bloodier and the rivalry seemed more natural).

The most remarkable feud he had during the last Toreo days was with [[Pegasus Kid]] ([[Chris Benoit]]) who is considered one of the best workers ever by practically everybody in the business. The masked Pegasus, now a WWE headliner with his real name, was a world nomad who would regularly work in Canada, Europe, Japan, the U.S. and Mexico. Benoit was put right away in a feud with Villano III, who he defeated on [[March 3]], [[1991]] at El Toreo for the WWF World Light Heavyweight Title.

Thinking that it was not likely he'd come back, Pegasus lost his mask to Villano III on [[November 3]], [[1991]]. But Benoit liked wrestling at El Toreo, and he caused such a good impression with the office that they called him back some months later (he had other commitments in Japan) so they could revive the feud. Other remarkable Toreo bouts during the rivalry were the [[January 19]], [[1992]] dream match where Villano teamed with [[El Hijo del Santo]] to defeat Pegasus and [[Negro Casas]], and Pegasus retaining the WWF belt a week later in the main event of the "17th Anniversary Show" of the promotion. By the end of it, the feud had turned into a trios feud, as Villanos would face Pegasus and his team partners Los Cowboys ([[Silver King]] and [[Texano]]). It basically culminated on [[September 13]], [[1992]] when Arturo gained back his WWF title.

Arturo was a top star and headliner at El Toreo until nearly its demise, but after Francisco Flores' death, booking and management got to bad that everybody who just stayed working there got lost in the shuffle: and that includes Dos Caras, Canek, Signo and Navarro (Texano was smart and/or lucky enough to get his career going in Japan teaming with Silver King). Some loyalists who were big (but not legendary) names and stayed until the end, never worked anywhere else at the same level again, like Enrique Vera. So Villano tried to keep his name fresh, working spot shows at Arena Mexico and Coliseo, and then jumping to [[AAA]] on January of [[1993]].

In AAA, Villano always worked main events and semi-main events, except in rare occasions (like [[Triplemania]], where even Santo Jr. was in the first half of the card), and feuded with Rambo, this time building to a hair vs. mask match that was hold at Mexico City's [[Gimnasio Juan de la Barrera]], on [[September 24]], [[1993]]. As a weird trivia data, the two first Villano III vs. Rambo "lucha de apuestas" (there was a third one on June [[2001]] in Naucalpan, this one hair vs. hair) were main eventing shows that commemorated the "anniversary of Lucha Libre", which is another way of saying "the birth of EMLL", but neither match was on EMLL and instead happened in the company's direct competitor at the time.

Soon after that match, Villano III quit because he was not happy with his push, and worked UWA again even though the place was a sinking ship and even drew a really sad 1,750 attendance for the January 1994 [[UWA]] Anniversary Show, headlined by Villanos 3 & 5 and [[Yamato (UWA)|Yamato]] (Tiger Chung Lee/Kim Duk) vs. Canek, [[Transformer]] (Kendo) and Gran Hamada, and with a rest of the card so uninteresting and not even worth of [[Arena Neza]] B-show status.

The promotion, however, started co-promoting with AAA and it revitalized business when they held matches like Villano and Canek vs. [[Konnan]] and Perro Aguayo (drawing 7,500 at El Toreo on May 94), and popped up business again at Arena Neza, getting regular attendances of 3,000 when the interpromotional concept was on.

But this relationship died off quickly, because the Toreo guys weren't "up to do business" (a few of the top wrestlers did not want to be jobbed out with "nothing in exchange" even though without the AAA guys, attendance would have been bad). So the Toreo promotion instead co-promoted with AAA's main rival, CMLL (formerly EMLL), that probably would be more open to "business", because they also needed the help. Villano worked a couple of shows for CMLL, but it was more of the same. UWA was practically dead and eventually ceased operations, not having a single show in January 95. Many of the guys jumped to CMLL, but as "CMLL guys" so to speak, not as "UWA guys". Others, like Villano III and his two younger brothers, jumped to AAA after a short stay in the ill-fated [[PROMELL]].

PROMELL was the first time ever where the three younger sons of Ray Mendoza became a regular team, because during the whole Toreo run (except for some special matches, mostly during the 92-94 bad period) the team was Villanos I & IV & V, while III was positionited higher on the cards as a singles wrestler. The three brothers had teamed up quite often at El Toreo during [[1994]], but Villano III most of the time still was slotted in the cards higher than his brothers were.

In AAA, the Villanos were positioned right into the main events, often teaming with Fishman as a symbolic "Team Toreo" (though never billed as such) against Santo, Konnan, Aguayo, and the other top main event tecnicos that Peña's promotion had to offer. They had a good run and some nice feuds and matches, but nothing like in the "glory days". During periods of time the team had no contiuity due to injuries, and that hurt them in the end, as they never really had the chance to have a stand-out feud during their AAA run. Their two major feuds were vs. [[Los Hermanos Dinamitas|Dinamitas]] and [[Los Payasos|Payasos]], and neither was impressive. And even though they were given the [[AAA Americas Trios titles]] (defeating the makeshift team of [[Heavy Metal]], [[Latin Lover]] and [[Cien Caras]] on [[March 8]], [[1996]] at [[Arena Neza]]), they left the promotion with the belts after having never defended them (even though they lated defended them in [[IWRG]]). They were also AAA Atomicos (eight men) champions with [[Pierroth Jr.]], with those belts suffering a similar fate.

On January 96, the three brothers jumped to [[Promo Azteca]] with the promise of more money and a spot for the two younger brothers in [[WCW]], but this was even worse. Though the whole promotion was a mess and there's not a lot of good to remember from it. When his brothers left for the US on July of [[1997]], Arturo kept basically wandering around Promo, and teamed with them when they were back home in between working for WCW. And again, he did nothing there, because the promotion only seemed to throw together eight guys in a match, with no rhyme or reason. Even though each and every one of those main eventers was either a draw or a great worker (and sometimes both), the matches did not draw and most of the time were as terrible and disorganized as lucha libre can get.

On July of [[1998]], Villano III joined CMLL. The month before that, he'd been on a long Japanese tour with [[FULL]], mostly working with CMLL talent. Villano's jump was something that back in the mid 80s nobody would have imagined, but since years had gone by, there was no major impact. He worked as a main event rudo as part of Pierroth's Boricuas stable, with [[Fuerza Guerrera]] and others.

In a major shock, Villano III unmasked [[Super Astro]] on a 1999 Christmas card at the [[Auditorio de Tijuana]]. The news was quite a surprise both because there had been no major build up for a match of such magnitude between two of the 80s biggest Toreo stars, and because the actual match was [[Fishman ]]and [[Lizmark]] vs. Villano III and Super Astro in "relevos suicidas", and everybody was sure Fishman would be the one losing, as it was common knowledge he was willing to drop the mask for a big paycheck.

During the Summer of [[1999]], Villano started his famous feud with [[Atlantis]]. The feud had been started around September of the previous year, but nothing happened at the time. There was a several months long build-up, featuring many matches around the [[CMLL World Light Heavyweight title]] that Atlantis had, and Villano eventually captured, as well as a hint of a mask vs. mask match on the company's 66th Anniversary Show on [[September 24]], [[1999]], where Atlantis and Villano III defeated [[Mr. Niebla]] and [[Shocker]] (with the latter finally dropping his mask).

They eventually faced each other on [[March 17]], [[2000]] at Arena Mexico in a classic máscara contra máscara bout that Atlantis won, revealing Villano III to be Arturo Díaz Mendoza. The bout, which was the feature match for CMLL's first PPV event, sold out Arena Mexico and won WON's Match of the Year honors. The match had incredible drama and heat, and super work and psychology, as well as one of the best major match finishes in recent lucha libre history, and it truly is one of the 10 biggest mask vs. mask matches ever in Mexico.

It's interesting to note that Villano III was originally thought to be losing his mask vs. [[Anibal]] in the late 80s, at the [[Monumental de Monterrey]] under Carlos Elizondo, but apparently, he was asking for a money sum out of this world, which reading between the lines tells us that he realized it was not the right time to lose the hood.

Villano III's unmasking revealed a facially old and beaten up man, who resembled his father during his latest run at El Toreo. After a series of TV skits, where Villano, still a rudo, thanked the fans and his father for all the great moments in his career, a turn could be seen coming a mile away. Pierroth then "fired him" from the Boricuas as, for weeks, Villano refused to get involved in massive post-match tecnico beatings, even though he did not help either. So Boricuas eventually turned on him, with the claims he'd turned "soft". So we had Arturo debuting as a tecnico on [[April 28]] teaming with none other than his two former nemesis, Atlantis and Perro Aguayo, against Pierroth, Shocker and [[Mascara Año 2000]].

This gave a new life to Arturo's career, and during the first months he had in fact came out as the major winner of the mask vs. mask match. Had a several months long feud with against Pierroth and Máscara 2000, teaming with Aguayo, and eventually taking out Jesús Reyes' hair in a cage match on [[August 4]].

By this point Villano still was a good worker, but his skills were diminishing quickly due to age and all the injuries he'd suffered due to working a highly demanding style during decades. The family also suffered a major blow when the older brother, José de Jesus, who worked as Villano I, died on [[January 4]], [[2001]], with the cause of death being a brain hemorrhage. This was the third major loss in the family, after the deaths of mother Lupita in [[1986]], and the [[1989]] death of brother José Alfredo (Villano II), which was publicized as being due wrestling injuries but during years has been rumoured to have been a suicide.

A few months after Ray Mendoza's death, The Villano family had a bitter departure from CMLL, citing their non existant push as the reason for it. During interviews, they claimed that they weren't even getting enough dates to sustain their families, so they became independent contractors. The brothers still work all over the Republic, even though they aren't such stars any longer, nor are they the superworkers they used to be, though the younger ones still are very competent wrestlers. Villano III can still work a good mat-based match, but due to age and injuries, he's lost his famous quickness and explosive timing.

Villano III, sadly, looks like somebody who is overstaying his welcome, and would have put on a classier end to a fantastic career should have retired after a year or year and a half-long tour as an unmasked babyface. At this point, unless he makes amends and returns to CMLL, he probably won't even have a major retirement party, should he retire any time soon.

== Notes ==
In [[CMLL]], Halloween's been an upper midcarder rudo, relying on brawling, famous WWE moves, and his partner [[Damian 666]] in the ring. Halloween's also a member of [[Perros del Mal]], joining early on.

Currently, Halloween's mostly out of action. In his [[December 2]], [[2005]] hair match with [[Universo]], Halloween took a tombstome for the loss. That's the storyline explanation for his absence, but it appeared as if Halloween also got knee surgery at the same time. Halloween made one more appearance in CMLL following his injury, bandaged and in a wheel cheer, selling his injuries.

Halloween talked about retirement in a late December 2005 interview with [[Box Y Lucha]], but has apparently worked towards recovery. He's wrestled at least once in Tijuana, and he'll probably be back in Mexico City before the summer is over. (June 2006)

Kicked out of Perros del Mal stable by Hijo del Perro Aguayo himself on August 10, 2007 after Lizmark Jr's defection.

Joined AAA promotion, teaming up with Xtreme Tiger and Nicho el Millonario in a new "Familia de Tijuana" Stable.

Hola y perdón por el español, estaba escribiendo esto en Ingles pero me cuesta mucho trabajo, espero puedan leerlo. Quería saber la razón por la que borraron el archivo de Beth Phoenix que cree la semana pasada, me dicen que ella no cuenta como luchador, realmente no la conozco bien pero tengo un DVD de Unforgiven 2007 en donde pelea contra Candice Michelle por el campeonato de la WWE y ambas son excelentes luchadoras, si de verdad quieren borrar a gente que no son verdaderos luchadores deberían de empezar por borrar a [[Poncho de Nigris]] y toda la gente que lucha en su arena de Monterrey, o a gente como [[Violento Jack]] que dan la impresión de ser fanáticos que se disfrazan de luchadores

Leí sobre las reglas para crear biografías, y me parece que dice que los administradores decidieron que Lucha Wiki trataba solo sobre promociones de Lucha Libre Mexicana, creo que este es un gran error, por si no se han dado cuenta Lucha Wiki ya es un enorme monstruo alimentado día a día por los usuarios y fanáticos de la lucha en general y no solo de la lucha libre mexicana, desde mi punto de vista la Lucha mexicana es la mejor del mundo por muchas razones, pero creo que tratar solo sobre ella es cerrarse a muchos otros estilos de lucha libre, además muchos de estos luchadores vienen a México a luchar y no por esos les vamos a considerar que ya luchan al estilo mexicano, al igual que muchos mexicanos luchan en EUA o Japón y no por eso pierden su estilo

Otra razón es que al hacer la página en Ingles la han hecho internacional, por lo tanto no veo porque no sea internacional también su contenido, creo que como ya les dije estos son los que crean día con día la página, y me gustaría creer que los usuarios son de todas partes del mundo y les gustaría ver a sus luchadores favoritos junto a grandes leyendas de la lucha libre mexicana

Por último creo que algunas decisiones las deberían hacer tomando mas en cuneta la opinión de los usuarios, púes aunque ustedes hayan creado y administren la página son los usuarios quienes están haciendo mas modificaciones, así que ya no se trata solo del gusto de ustedes, al editar archivos hay una advertencia que dice que si no quieres que te critiquen lo que pones o que lo borren, no lo pongas, creo que esta regla debería empezar con ustedes, si no quieren que les modifiquen su página o que les destruyan el contenido púes no la creen o háganla de contenido estático en donde pongan solo lo que a ustedes les interese

De todas formas quiero felicitarlos, esta es la mejor página de lucha que he encontrado en la red y desde que me di de alta trato de ver todos los días los cambios que hay y trato de contribuir lo mejor que puedo. Espero no molestar y que me entiendan en español

Muchas gracias por darnos este Wiki

This Guy above would like to know why it was decided that Luchawiki would only be for Lucha Libre, seeing as how so many International stars do come to wrestle in mexico ,he feels that by doing this you would be excluding many great influences, that have helped to shape what we know has Lucha Libre. I agree with him , What about Wrestlers like Gran Hamada who is not only a huge international star but a huge star in mexico along with his daughters ,who by the way were born to his MEXICAN WIFE !!! or even Gran SASUKE ,Jeff jarrett who has one the REY DE REYES who wasthe fisrt foreinger to win this tournament , keep in mind that many Merxican Luchadores are adopting a very un-lucha move set such as ozz who is quite fond of using LA DARKETA(aka Canadian Destroyer or Go 2 SLeep from KENTA KOBAYASHI or CM PUNK) feel free to respond on my talk page and i will Translate for you ...

CMLL World Women's Championship

2008-03-10T03:41:50Z

Crazy danish782: /* Champions Listing */

[[image:cmllwomen.jpg|right]]
== Current Champion ==
{{Gallery|name=Cmllwomen_amapola.jpg|caption=[[Amapola]], 12th Champion}} [[Amapola]] is the current champion. She defeated Lady Apache on 2007.11.16 in [[Arena Mexico]].

== History of Championship ==
The CMLL World Women's Champion has been dormant for long stretches of time; women's wrestling has not been consistently promoted by CMLL. From Lady Apache's departure in 2000 to spring 2005, women's matches were rare. (La Diaoblica may have never actually defended the title.) The return of the title and the division were prompted by an increasing popularity of women's wrestling in Arena Mexico, prompted by Canadian wrestler [[Dark Angel]] among others.

Marcela won the championship for the first time on 05/09/16. She defeated [[Dark Angel]], the co-finalist of a cibernetico the previous week and held it for nine months.

Hiroka upset Marcela for the belt. She wasn't considered a top wrestler when she won the belt, but built herself up over the title reign. Her biggest win during the stretch was a non-title hair match with [[Lady Apache]]. It was Lady Apache who'd eventually beat her for the title.
