Parent: Apóstol Jr

Grandparent: Tony Arellano

Great Grandparent: El Húngaro

The as yet lesser-known brother of Bandido, Myzteziz Jr has nonetheless assembled an impressive wrestling CV for someone relatively new to pro wrestling and Lucha Libre.

At just 26, he already boasts 100+ contests at the very highest level, working AAA matches under the Myzteziz Jr moniker as well as under his original Angelikal tag since 2017. Taking the new mask and persona from La Parka ahead of his December 2018 AAA World Trios Championship battle alongside partners El Hijo del Vikingo and Laredo Kid, the youngster toasted such high praise by scooping his first major title for the organisation that night.

Though he shares Bandido’s bloodline, he has thus far remained closer to his roots than his brother - taking the name with the "Jr" suffix from one of Mistico/Caristico/Sin Cara's prior characters, he's been given excitingly high standards to meet.
