Máscara Año 2000 Jr. is a former holder of the IWRG Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship and a co-holder of the IWRG Intercontinental Tag Team Championship along with El Hijo de Cien Caras. In the United States, he is best known through his appearance on the travel show Dhani Tackles the Globe, where he wrestled host Dhani Jones in an episode of the show's second season.
Professional wrestling career
Reyes made his professional wrestling debut at some point in 1999, under an undisclosed ring name.[4] From 1999 until 2006, he wrestled without revealing his family relations to his father Jesús Reyes González, better known as Máscara Año 2000.[5] This is a practice not uncommon in Lucha libre where sons often "learn the trade" before being given the "family name".[6]
In September 2006 he was finally introduced to the wrestling world as Máscara Año 2000 Jr. with his father publicly supporting him as he began to make a name for himself in the wrestling ring.
On 2 November 2008, Máscara Año 2000 Jr. was one of 10 wrestlers who put their mask on the line under
In March 2010, Máscara Año 2000 Jr. became involved in a storyline with Dhani Jones, a Cincinnati Bengals Linebacker who hosts a show called Dhani Tackles the Globe on the Travel Channel. During an IWRG show in Arena Naucalpan in March 2010, Jones and his camera crew taped a segment where he challenged Máscara Año 2000 Jr. to a match, a challenge that was quickly accepted.[14] The two wrestled in the main event of an IWRG show on 14 March 2010. Jones entered the ring wearing a traditional lucha mask but the Mexico State wrestling and boxing commission would not allow him to actually wrestle in it as it had not been approved by the commission. The match between the two went over 20 minutes and was described as "good for a rookie" by SuperLuchas magazine crediting both Jones' athleticism and Máscara Año 2000 Jr.'s skills. Initially it looked like Jones won the match as he pinned Máscara Año 2000 Jr. after a low blow while the referee was not looking. Following the pinfall the decision was reversed and Máscara Año 2000 Jr. won by disqualification, although it's not clear if the disqualification part of the match will be shown on the Travel Channel show.[7] The episode of Dhani Jones Tackles the Globe featuring Máscara Año 2000 Jr. premiered on 14 June 2010.
In April 2010, the Mexico State wrestling commission stripped the team of
