Having competed for the likes of AAA, CZW, and Dragon Gate USA, Del Sol signed with WWE in 2013 and took on the Kalisto moniker. Kalisto would remain with the market leader through until 2021, with him being a part of the Lucha Dragons and Lucha House party in addition to his singles career. That run would see Kalisto have two reigns as the United States Champion, win the NXT Tag Team Titles with Sin Cara, and the aforementioned Cruiserweight Championship win.
Since departing WWE and reverting back to his Samuray Del Sol name, the 36-year-old has stayed busy working dates for the likes of AAA, DDT, and BCW, plus one solitary appearance for AEW.
