Los Boricuas (2000–2003)

In 1999

Pequeno Violencia to the group to strengthen their numbers.[2][3]

At the CMLL 68th Anniversary Show the team of Gran Markus, Jr., Poder Boricua and Violencia unsuccessfully challenged for the Mexican National Trios Championship, losing to champions Mr. Niebla, Olímpico and Safari[4] In the months following the 68th Anniversary show Gran Markus, Jr. left the group with the storyline being that he was tired of being under Pierroth's command. In leaving the group Gran Markus began working opposite Los Boricuas as the storyline developed. To fill the gap Pierroth introduced Nitro to the group, a CMLL wrestler who had previous worked as Filoso.[5] On March 27, 2002, as part of CMLL's Homenaje a Dos Leyendas: El Santo y Salvador Lutteroth show Gran Markus Jr. defeated Veneno in a Lucha de Apuesta, or bet match, forcing Veneno to unmask as a result.[6][7] In subsequent months Poder Boricua left the group as well, changing his name to "Poder Mexican" ("Mexican Power") and began working opposite the rest of Los Boricuas.[8] On July 14, 2002 Poder Mexica and Mr. Mexico lost a Luchas de Apuestas match to Veneno and Violencia and as a result Poder Mexica was forced to unmask.[9] The storyline feud between Los Boricuas and those that defected from the faction continued as Gran Markus Jr. won a Luchas de Apuestas match in November, 2002 forcing Veneno to have all his hair shaved off.[7][9] The culmination of the storyline between Los Boricuas and the defectors came on March 21, 2003 as Pierroth Jr. and Gran Markus Jr. faced off in main event of that year's Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show. In the end Pierroth defeated Gran Markus and as a result Gran Markus Jr. was shaved bald afterwards.[7][10][11] The last remaining storyline for Los Boricuas saw Violencia leave the group, which at the time was basically himself and Pierroth and had Pierroth unmask Violencia at the CMLL 70th Anniversary Show.[10][12] In subsequent months Pierroth began teaming on a regular basis with Vampiro and Tarzan Boy, ending the Los Boricuas faction in CMLL.[11]

Comando Caribeño (2013–present)

On May 9, 2013 CMLL introduced a new

Sagrado, although they were not officially members of Comando Caribeño at that time. In early 2015 it was officially acknowledged as working under the name La Comando Caribeno with both Misterioso, Jr. and Sagrada adopting the imagery of the Puerto Rican flag in their ring gear.[15] On February 28, 2015 Misterioso Jr. and Sagrado defeated Delta and Guerrero Maya Jr. to win the CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship for the first time.[16]
