Ephesto
Encyclopedia
Ephesto is a Mexican
Luchador
Enmascarado
(Spanish
for "Masked professional wrestler
). Ephesto's real name has not been officially documented, a tradition in Mexican Lucha Libre
where masked wrestlers' real names often are not a matter of public record. The wrestler currently known as Ephesto made his debut in 1982 and worked for almost 20 years as Pantera del Ring with limited success.
His current ring name "Ephesto" is derived from the Spanish name for Hephaestus
, the Greek God of fire, Hefesto, in fact his name is sometimes spelled Hefesto in print sources. Ephesto is a member of the stable Los Hijos de Averno (Spanish for the sons of Hell) with Averno and Mephisto
, with whom he currently holds the CMLL World Trios Championship
, while also being a former CMLL World Light Heavyweight Champion
.
. His first ring persona was Pantera del Ring (Spanish for the Panther
of the Ring), a masked luchador with a panther inspired mask and trunks, inspired by his trainer Blue Panther. As Pantera del Ring, also referred to as Panterita del Ring, he signed with Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre
(CMLL) in the very early 1990s and began working as a low card Technicó
(the Lucha Libre term for a "Good guy"). When Antonio Peña
, the head booker of CMLL at the time broke off to form the rival promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración
(AAA), Pantera del Ring was one of the CMLL workers that went with Peña in 1992. In AAA he teamed up with Latin Lover to win the Mexican National Tag Team Championship
from the team of Fuerza
and Juventud Guerrera
on June 1, 1995. The team only held the Tag Team titles for three and a half months before losing them back to the Guerreras. By 1997 Panterita del Ring was working for the newly formed Promo Azteca promotion, this time as a Rudo
(the Lucha Libre term for "bad guy"). He won the tournament to crown the first ever Aztecas Middleweight Champion defeating Ángel Azteca
and Black Dragon in the finals. He eventually lost the title but kept working for Promo Azteca as an upper card worker until Promo Azteca folded in the late 1990s.
In 2000 he returned to CMLL and began working under the ring persona Safari, a mid-card Technico. Safari did not gain much momentum, generally working random tag matches until he was teamed up with Mr. Niebla
and Olímpico
and defeated the team of Blue Panther, Fuerza Guerrera and El Signo for the Mexican National Trios Championship
on March 30, 2001. The team had a rather uneventful title reign that lasted 15 months but rarely saw the team defended the title until Los Nuevos Infernales
(Averno, Mephisto
and Satánico) won the titles from them on June 23, 2001. In late 2003 Safari teamed up with El Felino
and Volador, Jr. to win a tournament for the vacant Mexican National Trios Championship, defeating Alan Stone
, Super Crazy
and Zumbido
in a tournament final to claim the title. Safari's second run with the title proved to be about as long as the first one, 16 months, but once again did not result in many memorable matches or a sustained push for Safari. When Pandilla Guerrera (Doctor X
, Nitro
and Sangre Azteca
) defeated Safari's team for the titles it signaled the last time the Safari character was given the spotlight.
In late 2005, only months after losing the Trios titles Safair became El Hombre sin Nombre (Spanish for "The Man without name"), a ring persona & name that indicates that the wrestler is a "blank slate", as he has no name and wrestles in plain black clothes & mask. CMLL started a contenst for the fans to come up with a new name and ring persona for this wrestler. As Hombre sin Nombre he worked as a Rudo with no public reference given to the fact that he was previously known as Safari. By the end of 2007 it was announced that El Hombre Sin Nombre finally had a name, Ephesto as suggested by a fan after the Greek God of fire, Hephaestus
.
's NWA World Welterweight Championship
, his first chance at a singles title in CMLL. While he did not win the title the matches with La Sombra were very competitive and well received. In the spring/summer of 2009 Ephesto began targeting rival Rey Bucanero
, challenging him for the CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship
. At first the storyline between the two saw Rey Bucanero turn down the challenge, only to late accept after Ephesto brought a ringside ticket for a show where Bucanero was in the main event and interfered in the match. On May 26, 2009 the two met with the title on the line, after each winning one fall the match was stopped by the referee as Rey Bucanero had suffered a serious knee injury. The referee awarded the match and the title to Ephesto, his first CMLL singles title. Bucanero's injury was so severe that it required surgery and he was out of action for six months. By virtue of holding the CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship Ephesto participated in the 2010 Universal Championship tournament
. He was part of "Block A" that competed on the July 30, 2010 Super Viernes show. He co-won the eight-man seeding battle royal
, but was eliminated from the tournament when he lost to El Texano, Jr.
in the first round of the actual tournament. On August 16, 2010 it was announced that Ephesto was one of 14 men putting their mask on the line in a Luchas de Apuestas steel cage match, the main event of the CMLL 77th Anniversary Show
. Ephesto was the third man to leave the steel cage as all three members of Los Hijos del Averno quickly left the cage, keeping their masks safe. The match came down to La Sombra
pinning Olímpico
to unmask him. On February 22, 2011, Ephesto lost the CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship to Rush
, ending his reign at 637 days. On July 15, Los Hijos del Averno defeated La Generación Dorada (Máscara Dorada
, La Máscara
and La Sombra]]) to win the CMLL World Trios Championship.
