Gilbert Cosme was born on May 25th, 1976 in Bayamón, Puerto Rico.
Gilbert Cosme may not sound familiar, but if you follow lucha libre, you may know Gilbert under one of his many ring names like El Mega Triple Campeón de AAA, Asesor Cibernetica, El Mesías, Muerte Cibernetica, Ricky Banderas or Judas Mesias.
Heck, even if you dont follow lucha libre, you may know him from his appearances here in the US working for wrestling promotions like the short lived Wrestling Society X (he was the last wrestler to win the WSX Championship) or Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).
There was even a rumor going around that he might make his way to the WWE.

He made his wrestling debut in 1997 and except for brief stints in the before mentioned WSX and TNA, he has wrestled for the Puerto Rico-based professional wrestling promotion International Wrestling Association (IWA), Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), and another Puerto Rico-based promotion, The World Wrestling Council (WWC).

As far as belts, titles and awards go, during his career so far he has held....

Asistencia Asesoría y Administración
AAA World Heavyweight Championship (three times)
GPCW Super-X Monster Championship
IWC World Heavyweight Championship
And won the Copa Antonio Peña in 2008

International Wrestling Association
IWA Hardcore Championship (nine times)
IWA Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship (twice)
IWA World Heavyweight Championship (five times)
IWA World Tag Team Championship (five times. Three times with Gran Apolo, once with Glamour Boy Shane and once with Cruzz.

Monster Clown - Lucha Libre AAA

Los Psycho Circus, Monster Clown is on the rightLos Psycho Circus, Monster Clown is on the right.

Now this is part of what I like so much about lucha libre.
The blatant outrageousness they can pull off at times.
I mean how cool is going into the psyche of the fans and pulling out Coulrophobia (fear of clowns) as a gimmick?
Well Monster Clown does just that.

The man behind the mask started out wrestling in 1997 as Highlander.
Then he went on to the wrestling promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) and became Aliens.

In 2007, AAA repackaged him as Zombie Clown and made him part of the new wrestling stable, Los Psycho Circus along with Psycho Clown and Killer Clown.
The stable was supposed to be inspired by the B-movie, Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

These guys went on a rampage taking on and defeating not only faces, but heels as well.

In August 2009, Zombie Clown was renamed "Monster Clown" and his partner Killer Clown was renamed "Murder Clown" due to some copyright issues over the original names.
I've looked and I cant figure out what the copyright issue was.
