Leornardo Carrera Lizarraga[1] (born May 14, 1989)[2] is a Mexican luchador or professional wrestler, better known by the ring name Bestia 666. He is currently working for various promotions across Mexico, while also performing in the United States for several California-based promotions. Bestia 666's father is professional wrestler Leonardo Carrera, who performs as Damián 666 and who inspired his son's current character.[6] He is the current leader of La Rebelión Amarilla. He is a two time NWA World Tag Team Champion.

Early life

Carrera was born to Leonardo Carrera Gómez and Guadalupe Lizarraga on May 14, 1989, in

Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León in Monterrey to study sports science.[4] While studying, Carrera was looking for a career in American football, playing both as a running back and a defensive back, however, he was forced to give up the sport after nagging injuries started to affect his running.[1][4] Carrera then decided to follow in the footsteps of his father Leonardo, better known as Damián 666, and started training in lucha libre or professional wrestling in Arena México under his father, El Hijo del Gladiador and Skayde.[6]

Professional wrestling career

In July 2009, Carrera made his debut for his father's home promotion,

El Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 and Máscara Año 2000 Jr.).[25] On March 12, 2012, Bestia 666, along with his father, Halloween and X-Fly, announced that he was quitting Los Perros del Mal.[26][27]

United States (2011–present)

El Hijo de Rey Misterio II

On June 3, 2011, Carrera made his professional wrestling debut in the United States, when he, working without his signature face paint and billed simply as Bestia, took part in the tapings of Urban Wrestling Federation's (UWF) first three

New York City, New York. On the first PPV, titled First Blood, Bestia defeated Facade in a first round match of a tournament to determine the inaugural UWF Champion.[28] At the tapings of the third PPV, titled Street King, Bestia was eliminated from the four–way tournament finals by Homicide.[29] On the fourth PPV, Thug Assassins, which premiered January 22, 2012, Bestia defeated Masada.[30]

In early 2012, Bestia 666, along with his father, began making regular appearances for

El Hijo de Rey Misterio II in what was dubbed a "Lucha Libre Legacy" match.[36] On June 22, Bestia and his father unsuccessfully challenged Pink Mink, Inc. (Matt Carlos and Rik Luxury) for the Unified Tag Team Championship in a three-way match, which also included the Ballard Brothers (Shane and Shannon). This led to an immediate rematch, where the two were victorious via countout over Pink Mink, Inc., who, however, retained their title.[37]

On July 24, 2015, Bestia 666 made his debut for

Amped television taping, teaming with Blood Eagle and Steve Pain in a six-man tag team match, where they were defeated by Misterioso Jr., Phoenix Star and Zokre.[38]

In March 2016, Bestia 666 debuted for Lucha Underground.[39]

He made his first appearance for Major League Wrestling on MLW Fusion 68 in a singles match, defeating Mance Warner.

La Familia de Tijuana (2012–2017)

After quitting Los Perros del Mal, Bestia 666, Damián 666, Halloween, Super Nova and X-Fly announced on March 14, 2012, that they were forming a new group of independent wrestlers, named La Familia de Tijuana. The group was much like Los Perros del Mal, with the exception that they were not looking to form their own promotion. It was also revealed that originally only Bestia and his father were looking to get out of Los Perros del Mal, but the others joined them after learning of their intentions.[40][41] On March 22, Bestia 666 defeated Trauma I to win the IWRG Junior de Juniors Championship.[42] On March 29, IWRG was officially announced as La Familia de Tijuana's new home promotion.[43] On July 1, Bestia 666 lost the IWRG Junior de Juniors Championship to El Hijo de Máscara Año 2000.[44] On February 1, 2013, Bestia 666 defeated El Hijo de Rey Misterio II to win Promociones Rojas' vacant WWO World Cruiserweight Championship.[45] In December 2013, Bestia was invited to take part in another WWE tryout.[46]
