Jesús Parra Ramírez (born January 11, 1972) is a Mexican Luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler best known under the ring name Hooligan. He is currently working under the ring name Luciferno. Ramírez has worked for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) since 2002 and is a founding member of the group Los Guerreros Tuareg as well as being a core member in the group that preceded it, Pandilla Guerrera. Ramírez has previously wrestled under the ring names Super Punk and Último Rebelde. He is the brother of CMLL luchador Ephesto, although it is not acknowledged on television.

Professional wrestling career

Ramírez was trained for his professional wrestling career by

Lucha de Apuesta match, but Guerrero left Promo Azteca to join Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) to keep from being unmasked.[4] In the end Último Rebelde lost to Torero on December 13, 1997, after which he had to unmask and reveal his real name per Lucha Libre traditions.[5]
When Promo Azteca closed down less than a year later Ramírez worked mainly local shows until getting an opportunity to wrestle for CMLL in 2002

Ramírez made his debut for CMLL in August, 2002 wrestling as the enmascarado character Hooligan, inspired by the British football hooligans. His mask was originally patterned after the Union Jack, although it was later modified with a Mohawk and decorations.[6] He started out working in the first or second match of the night with mixed success. In 2003 he teamed up with Sangre Azteca and Ramstein to form a rúdo (bad guy) group called La Alianza ("The Alliance").[6] La Alianza's lone highlight was their participation in a tournament for the vacant Mexican National Trios Championship in 2003, although they lost in the first round.[7]

Pandilla Guerrera and Guerros Tuareg

In 2007 several members of Pandilla Guerrera broke away from Los Guerreros del Infierno to establish their own identity as a group called Los Rebeldes del Desertio ("The Desert Rebels") and sometimes Los Rebeldes del Tuareg ("The

steel cage match in the main event of the 2010 Infierno en el Ring. He was the first man to escape the cage, showing his true rudo character by distracting his Guerreros Tuareg team member Doctor X in order to escape the cage. In the end Ángel de Oro defeated Fabián el Gitano in the Lucha de Apueta (bet match) portion of the match to unmask him.[12]

Luciferno

On February 3, 2015, Ramírez debuted under the new ring name Luciferno and joined

Los Hijos del Infierno ("The Sons of the Inferno").[13] On August 9, 2015 Los Hijos del Infierno defeated Los Reyes de la Atlantida ("The Kings of the Atlantis"; Atlantis, Delta and Guerrero Maya Jr.) to win the Mexican National Trios Championship.[14]

Private life

Ramírez' brother is also a Luchador working for CMLL under the name Ephesto, since Ephesto has never been unmasked in a Lucha de Apuesta match his first name is not a matter of public record.[15] Ramírez was a training partner of Último Guerrero (then wrestling as El Flanagan) which developed a close bond between the two, so close that he often calls Guerrero "his brother" to the point that they have many times been mistaken for brothers, even though there's no blood relation between them.[15]
