The 1990s AAA trios team Las Gemas Del Ring consisted of the three 2nd generation brothers Brillante, Zafiro, and Diamante (the later- Moro III).
There is some confusion over the "Zafiro" name & its attributions. The Zafiro who was part of Las Gemas & lost his mask in a trios match with them either went on to remask himself as Pentagoncito, or - more likely - remain unmasked & lose several hair matches in which he's credited as Zafiro (II). It's possible that Pentagoncito's earlier ring name of "Principe Zafiro" led people to erroneously assume he was the Gemas Zafiro, and that - technically - no "Zafiro II" as-such exists, as it was the same individual as the original all along.
This has also cast doubt on whether Pentagoncito is actually a member of the Moro family after all, or if that's simply a knock-on misassumption. That said, Espanto Jr. was the original Pentagon, which adds some logical credence to a connection.
There are at least 4 more of Moro's sons who are luchadors. Possibly including Funebre & Cavernario Galindo Jr., who are cited as Gema's uncles. Gema also counts a luchador named Black Jewel among her cousins, which fits the Moro theming.
unrelated, but billed as such
- Dragon Rojo Jr. has at times claimed to be part of this family, however other times stated he has no relatives in wrestling and even other times been billed as the grandson of the original Dragon Rojo. It's understood Rojo was trained by Moro III who allowed him to use the name of Diamante Negro (one of Moro's III previous names) even as Dragón Rojo Jr. he kept the trademark diamond on his mask as a gesture of respect to his trainer, but is not actually related to them.
- Diamante (CMLL) married (and later divorced) the daughter of Brillante.
- Brillante (2012) is supposedly the son on his trainer Brillante Sr. (and thus brother of La Sombra), though this is difficult to fully corroborate. Possibly a kayfabe relationship.
- Brillante Sr. claimed to have a second son - Christian - in 1998. Possibly became the 2012 Brillante, possibly never entered wrestling at all.[1]
