The Casas Family
Updated version of the "'Category:Casas Family'" page.
The Casas family is a famous lucha libre family spanning three generations.
Bio
Pepe Casas, a former wrestler, trainer and referee, is the father of the dynasty.
Negro Casas was the first son to debut, followed by Felino and Heavy Metal. Negro went on to become a long-time main eventer for CMLL. Felino became a solid midcard to upper-midcard performer for CMLL. Heavy Metal went on to become a midcarder and sometimes main eventer for both AAA and CMLL.
In the 2000's, the third generation of the family began to appear in wrestling with Puma King and Tiger becoming midcard CMLL wrestlers and are so far the most successful of the third generation of the Casas family. Canelo Casas is sometimes seen on lower card of smaller CMLL shows.
There are said to be more members of the family in wrestling.

Other
Pepe Casas has 5 daughters who did not get into wrestling.[1]
Dalis La Caribeña, Princesa Blanca & wrestling reporter Cynthia Palacios married Negro Casas, Felino & Heavy Metal, respectively. Blanca divorced Felino in 2014, which played into her retirement that August.[5] Dalys' family Veneno, Vudu Max, Chacho Medina & (possibly) Keshin Black can thus furthermore be counted, by technicality.
Negro Casas' three daughters - Noris, Omaraida & Zaraida[6] - started training in Olympic wrestling themselves in 2007, alongside their mother Dalys. And were still training by late 2009.[7] None of them seemed to transition to lucha libre themselves, however. Instead, they married various wrestlers: Diamante and Delta both supposedly married unspecified daughters (with the Diamante marriage happening after 2010[8] & ending by 2014). Black Warrior Jr. married Omaraida "Omii" Casas (merging two "black dynasties" in the process), and died in 2022.[9] Whilst Psycho Clown married the youngest Zaraida, thus connecting the Casas Family to the Brazo Family.
Negro Casas has at least 6 grandchildren, seemingly 2 from each daughter: 2 grandsons via Zaraida - Luis Jose & Jose Giovanni[10][11] - (one of whom was born in February/March 2016),[12] a grandson & granddaughter - Maila Aurora[13] - through Omii,[14][15] and 2 granddaughters (one named Isabella) presumably via Noris.[10]
Puma King was married to a woman named Barby Villela during 2018, and made regular vlogs with her. They presumably divorced, due to her subsequent marriage to Flip Gordon.
