Luchador: Rocky Romero

Luchador: Rocky Romero
John R. Rivera was born on October 28, 1982 in Havana, Cuba.
He is better known by his wrestling name Rocky Romero and as the fourth Black Tiger.
In 2003, Rocky began working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL).
Rocky became the first ever CMLL World Super Lightweight Champion after beating Volador Jr. in a tournament final on September 12, 2003. He has gone on to hold the belt 3 times and is the current champion.
Which is a little awkward because on October 5, 2008, Rocky jumped from CMLL to rival promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) while still holding the CMLL belt and became a member of Sean Waltman's D-Generation MEX stable.
So what happens to the belt?

Nicho el Millonario / Psicosis

What's in a name?
Well when you follow luchador Psicosis, a name can get a little confusing.
Is it Psicosis?
Or Psychosis?
Or Psichosis?
Or is he Nicho el Millonario?
Either way he was born Dionicio Castellanos Torres on May 19, 1971 in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico.
Psicosis was trained by Fobia and Rey Misterio, Sr.
He made his pro wrestling debut as El Salvaje on March 10, 1989 in his hometown Tijuana.
Nicho El Millionaro is the name he is wrestling under now in Asistencia Asesoría y Administración.
The name began when he was working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL).
He had to take it because when Psicosis left AAA originally and went to the WCW, AAA booker Antonio Peña claimed ownership to the Psicosis name and gimmick, creating Psicosis II.
In Lucha Libre, he has had feuds with El Hijo del Santo, Rey Mysterio, Jr., La Parka, Juventud Guerrera, and Fuerza Guerrera.
