Martín Antonio Alvarado Nieves (born March 7, 1968) is a Mexican

professional wrestling promotion, but is currently working on the Mexican Independent circuit
and not permanently for one specific promotion.

Professional wrestling career

Martín Alvarado was trained by his father

Robin Hood and revealed that he was part of the Alvarado family. At the time it was not revealed that Robin Hood was actually a brother of Martín Alvarado, José Aarón Alvarado Nieves.[1][3] A few years later he took the family ring name and became known as Súper Brazo, including the signature "Brazo" mask with the logo of a man flexing his biceps on the front of it.[4] While his three oldest brothers had worked as "Los Brazos" and other Brazos had at times replaced one of them, Super Brazo, Brazo Cibernético (formerly Robin Hood) and Brazo de Platino work as Los Nuevo Brazos for the Universal Wrestling Association starting in 1992.[1][2][3] Later on Súper Brazo worked for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), the world's oldest and one of Mexico's largest wrestling promotions. In CMLL he became involved in a storyline with Mr. Niebla that escalated to the point that both wrestlers put their mask on the line in a Luchas de Apuestas match. The match took place on July 16, 1995, and was won by Mr. Niebla, forcing Súper Brazo to unmask.[1][5] In the years following his mask loss Súper Brazo became a regular on the Mexican Independent Circuit, especially around Mexico City, oftentimes teaming with Brazo de Platino and Brazo Cibernético until his death in 1999.[2][3]

Over the years Súper Brazo became more of a "Special attraction" wrestler, brought in by a promoter for a few events but not working regularly, long term for any promotion. Súper Brazo, as well as most of the other second-generation Alvarado brothers often lost their hair in Luchas de Apuestas matches, losing to wrestlers such as

La Máscara in the semi-finals of the tournament.[9]

The Alvarado family

Main article: Alvarado wrestling family

The Alvarado wrestling family spans three generations starting with Shadito Cruz followed by his 6 sons and a third-generation of wrestlers that started working in the late 1990s. Several wrestlers has used the ring name "Súper Brazo" and claimed to be related to Martín Alvarado, although in some cases the family connection is fictional. Alvarado himself confirmed that the Súper Brazo, Jr. that made his debut around 2000, is indeed a biological son, but a later "Super Brazo II" was not, but given the character by Alvarado to carry on the name.[3] The wrestler currently known as Brazo Celestial started out in 2009 wrestling as "Super Brazo, Jr." but may not be the son of Martin Alvarado. There are cases where the sons of José Alvarado Nieves (Brazo de Plata) have used the ring names of their uncles as there was already someone working as "Brazo de Plata, Jr." It remains unconfirmed how Brazo Celestial is related to the Alvarado family, only that he indeed is a member of the family.[9]
