Los Metálicos

Los Metálicos were a stable that wrestled in CMLL from 1991 - 1993. Members of the stable included:

Oro
Plata
Bronce (played by Black Warrior until his jump to AAA in May 1992; Gimmick was then given to an unknown wrestler)
Platino

Oro, Plata & Bronce II are all related, being members of the Hernández Family. As are Oro II, Plata II and the similarly-named Golden.

Los Metálicos were heavily courted by Antonio Pena for his AAA in promotion. In particular Pena wanted Oro but eventually he decided to create his own team which were exact copies of Los Metálicos named Las Gemas Del Ring.

Unfortunately after Oro's passing in October 1993, there was no point in continuing with the Metálicos gimmick and it was dropped.

There's still a long discussion - especially with La Sombra's rise to popularity - as to which faction came first: Las Gemas Del Ring or Los Metalicos. This comes after some comments made by La Sombra and Las Gemas, that they used the gimmick before Los Metalicos but didn't get their fame until they got to AAA. Regardless, Sombra was presented by CMLL as a spiritual successor to Oro (literally his "shadow").^[1]
