IWRG and Independent Circuit (2010-present)

Estrada left CMLL in late 2010 and began working for a variety of promotions on Mexico's independent circuit, including making regular appearances for International Wrestling Revolution Group IWRG.

Los Gringos VIP (2011-2015)

In late 2011 the group known as Los Gringos Locos (El Hijo del Diablo, Avisman and Gringo Loco) held the Distrito Federal Trios Championship when Gringo Loco left Mexico and stopped working for IWRG. The Mexico City wrestling commission allowed IWRG to substitute Gringo Loco with Apolo Estrada Jr. to carry on the Distrito Federal Trios Championship.[5] The group would later be renamed Los Gringos VIP as they held the Trios title for over a year, until March 19, 2012.[5] The trio regained the championship in September, 2013.[6] With Gringos VIP partner El Hijo del Diablo Estrada Jr. won the IWRG Intercontinental Tag Team Championship on May 21, 2015 as they defeated Alan Extreme and Veneno to win the titles.[7] Their run with the tag team championship lasted only 25 days until IWRG decided to move the titles over to Los Oficiales (Oficial 911 and Oficial AK-47) instead.[8] Estrada Jr. also held the WWS World Welterweight Championship, a title promoted by IWRG, as he defeated Dr. Cerebro to win the vacant title on December 8, 2013. Dr. Cerebro would later win the title from Estrada Jr. On August 14, 2015 Los Terribles Cerebros (Black Terry, Dr. Cerebro and Cerebro Negro) won the Distrito Federal Trios titles from Los Gringos VIP, ending their reign after 643 days.[6] Los Gringos VIP, in this instance Apolo Estrada Jr. and El Hijo del Diablo, defeated Los Panteras (Pantera and El Hijo del Pantera) to win the IWRG Intercontinental Tag Team Championship for the second time.[9] Their title reign lasted 67 days until Los Panteras regained the championship.[10] After the title loss Estrada Jr. and Hijo del Diablo attacked each other, blaming the other for the loss and ending the Los Gringos VIP faction.[10]

Los Insoportables (2015-present)

In the week following the break up of Los Gringos VIP Apolo Estrada Jr. began teaming regularly with Eterno, forming a tag team known as Los Insoportables ("The Unsupportable Ones"). As part of the team Apolo Estrada Jr. often supported Eterno as Eterno feuded with Black Terry. Los Insoportables are scheduled to put their hair on the line in the main event of the Arena Naucalpan 38th Anniversary Show, facing off against the Terribles Cerebroros team of Black Terry and Dr. Cerebro.[11]
