Rayo Metálico (born May 1, 1998) is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL).
Rayo Metálico is the Mexican National Lightweight Champion. His real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans.[1]
Career
After winning a qualifier in Puebla, together with Meyer,[2] Rayo Metálico participated in a multi-man elimination match to crown a new Mexican National Lightweight Champion on 30 July 2023, which was won by Futuro, who became the new champion.[3][4] The concept of the tournament was that two wrestlers from Guadalajara, Mexico City, Puebla and Laguna respectively competed for the title.[2]
In February 2024, Rayo Metálico took part in the Torneo de Escuelas tournament, where the CMLL trainees from Mexico City, Puebla, Guadalajara and Comarca Lagunera competed against each other in a series of multi-man matches. He and his Puebla team reached the final where they lost to the Mexico City team.[5][6] On September 27, 2024, at CMLL Noche de Campeones, Rayo Metálico defeated Futuro to win the Mexican National Lightweight Championship.[7]
