ALEX KOSLOV
This fella was a part of Team International at the last TNA World X-Cup, but you can mostly find him kicking it up in the AAA promotion in Mexico where along with Sean Waltman and Rocky Romero, they form Degeneration-Mex! |
|

BLUE DEMON JR
The original Blue Demon was a huge star in Mexico back in the day, and his adopted son has picked up the mantle pretty nicely, even recently beating 'Scrap Iron' Adam Pearce to become the first masked NWA World Heavyweight Champion! |
|
|
/All/ElPanterasmall.jpg) |
EL PANTERA
Aside from having a bad ass name, El Pantera is something of a wrestling legend down in Mexico, whilst having competed most recently for Chikara in the US and winning the 2008 King of Trios tournament alongside Lince Dorado and Incognito! |

HECTOR GARZA
You gotta love Garza's cockiness.
I mean, the whole 'getting down on his knees and offering out his hand'
schtick is what really made me like the former Team Mexico captain when
I first saw him. 2005 was looking to be a breakout year for him in TNA,
but after some scandal in Mexico, he's all but disappeared off the US
radar! |
| |

/All/JackEvans2small.jpg) |
JACK
EVANS
One of THE most acrobatic
wrestlers alive today, Jack Evans can perform some of the damnedest
looking flips and flops you can imagine. He's almost as agile as a
real-life Spiderman, although to the best of my knowledge, he isn't able
to shoot webbing from his wrists. |
|
|
/All/JorgeRiverasmall.jpg) |
JORGE RIVERA
The man formerly known as Skyada has carved out quite the career for himself, and not only that, but his legacy lives on in all of the many, many wrestlers who he's helped train over the years, most notably the likes of Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, and virtually all of the Chikara crop of talent from '06-'07 too! |
| |
|
/All/JudasMesiassmall.jpg) |
JUDAS MESIAS
AKA, Ricky Banderas from WSX and AAA fame! Mesias
is supposedly the evil "son" of James Mitchell, come on a mission of
revenge against Abyss, though that's been put on hiatus thanks to
injury! |
| |
|
/All/JuventudGuerrera2small.jpg) |
JUVENTUD GUERRERA
Yeesh, way to blow a golden opportunity Juvi. The Juice honestly
believed himself to be an even bigger star than the Rock, was an a-hole
backstage, used other wrestlers moved and was a constant pain in the
backside of road agents, so it came as no surprise to hear of Juvi's
release! |
| |
|
/All/Konnansmall.jpg) |
KONNAN
Former member of the Three Live Kru, Konnan had some
major league problems with B.G James over his past with the man formerly
known as Billy Gunn. The end result saw Konnan turn heel and form the
LAX and Konnan has really helped to make the group as awesome as it is, though a falling out with TNA means he now works/books solely for AAA! |
| |
|
/All/LAParksmall.jpg) |
L.A. PARK
Formerly known as La Parka, the man is the Chairman
of the Board! Whatever Board that might be since the shutdown of WCW,
I'm not too sure, but if anyone was wondering why he's not La Parka
anymore, it's because AAA in Mexico own the rights to the name and won't
let him use it! Bastards! |
| |
|
/All/MarkJindrak2small.jpg) |
MARK JINDRAK
Jindrak could be a potentially great big man wrestler, but he was never
going to fit in with the WWE style... I wasn't a huge fan of the guy
myself, and I can't really see where he might show up in the coming
years! |
| |
|
/All/Misticosmall.jpg) |
MISTICO
This fella is
one of the most exciting lucha libre prospects to have come out of
Mexico probably since Rey Mysterio, someone who his style is extremely
similar to! While only young, Mistico has all the potential in the world
and it's only a matter of time before more doors start opening in the
US! |
| |
|
/All/RoxxiLaveaux2small.jpg) |
NIKKI ROXX
The
Voodoo Queen also wrestles on the independent scene as Nikki Roxx, and
even though this gimmick might be a little too cartoony at times,
there's no doubting her ability inside the ring! |
| |
|
/All/Octagonsmall.jpg) |
OCTAGON
Although he looks mighty similar to the Great Sasuke,
Octagon is a 20+ year pro in his own right and what's more miraculous is
that he's spent the majority of that time under the mask yet has never
lost it in any type of mask vs mask/hair match that is so common down in
Mexico! At least, to the best of my knowledge anyway! |
| |
|
/All/Psicosis3small.jpg) |
PSICOSIS
What a way to ruin your career...the E are trying to
think up new ways to reintroduce you, so instead of spending the time
waiting patiently, you go and steal a car at gunpoint and get arrested.
Genius!! |
| |
|
/All/Relliksmall.jpg) |
RELLIK
Poor Johnny 'The Bull'. He was starting to really
improve in the ring and then WHAM! He's released! Still, it's good to
see he's keeping busy over in Japan where I believe he made his
debut under the guise of the Great Muta, before going back to being
Johnny The Bull again! |
| |
|
/All/ReyMisterioSrsmall.jpg) |
REY MYSTERIO SR
No, not Rey's Dad but his Uncle, and the original Rey
Misterio. He helped train his nephew and currently still wrestles in
Mexico fairly frequently!! |
| |
|
/All/RockyRomero2small.jpg) |
ROCKY ROMERO
This is
actually his second appearance in the Indy section, with the first being
Rocky under the guise of Black Tiger a little further up the page. He's just
recently returned to RoH and it looks as if a feud with his old
Rottweiler team-mates could be on the cards! |
| |
|
/All/Syxx-Pac2small.jpg) |
SEAN WALTMAN
The former X-Pac has had some tough problems to
overcome the last couple of years, but he's now got the opportunity to
wrestle on a national platform again with MTV's Wrestling Society X!! |
| |
|
/All/Shockersmall.jpg) |
SHOCKER
This high flying Mexican was most famous in the
States for appearing in a McDonald's advert... However, TNA then
capitalized on that notoriety, bringing Shocker into the X-Division fold
during 2005! After a brief stint on Team Mexico in the World X Cup, he's currently working back in Mexico I believe! |
| |
|
/All/SuperCrazy4small.jpg) |
SUPER CRAZY
I
don't really understand why he was randomly switched to Raw since that
hurt the cruiserweight division even more, but meh... Crazy is a good
addition to the Raw midcard, which is really starting to look quite good
for the first time in years! |
| |
|
/All/TeddyHartsmall.jpg) |
TEDDY HART
This nephew of Bret 'Hitman' Hart may have a huge reputation of being his own biggest fan, but by all accounts, he can go in the ring! And to be fair, there haven't been as many of his misdemeanours splashed over the net in the last few years either, so maybe Teddy's finally growing up? |
| |
|
/All/Vampirosmall.jpg) |
VAMPIRO
He's probably best known for his run in the dying days of WCW, but Vampiro is quite the accomplished wrestler of 20 years, having travelled all over the world! Plus, he's probably got one of the best 'looks' out of all the wrestlers out there! |
| |
|
/All/VoladorJrsmall.jpg) |
VOLADOR JR
This lucha libre star from the AAA promotion in Mexico has made multiple appearances for TNA over the past year, whether taking part in the World X-Cup or randomly pairing up with Hiroshi Tanahashi! |
