) in San Pedro, Puebla. After wrestling as Chachorro González for over a year González wanted to adopt an enmascarado character by the name of "Star Wars", but the local promoter, Señor Barradas, did not want wrestlers with English names. Instead he adopted the name "Fuerza Guerrera", a name he came up with inspired by the Aztec warriors of Latin America.

He made his in ring debut as Fuerza Guerrera on December 19, 1979 in Arena Naucalpan. Since his debut Guerrera has almost always worked as a Rudo, a "bad guy" or "Heel

(EMLL), Mexico's largest wrestling promotion. On September 25, 1981 Fuerza Guerrera made his first appearance at a major EMLL show as he wrestled and defeated Negro Casas
on EMLL's 48th Anniversary show. On November 6, 1983 Guerrera defeated Aguila Venezolana in a tournament final to win the vacant Mexican National Lightweight Championship
, the first professional wrestling championships of his career. In May, 1984 Guerrera vacated the title when he moved from the lightweight weight class (between 63 kg (138.9 lb) and 70 kg (154.3 lb)) and into the Welterweight weight class (between 70 kg (154.3 lb) and 78 kg (172 lb)). On December 3, 1985 Fuerza Guerrera captured the Mexican National Welterweight Championship
when he defeated Javier Cruz. Guerrera held the title for approximately 240 days before vacating the title as he left EMLL to work for other wrestling promotions in Mexico. By late 1988 Guerrera had returned to EMLL and captured the NWA World Welterweight Championship
on October 4, 1988 when he defeated Solar II and won the highest ranking title in the Welterweight division at the time. Guerrera would go on to make several successful title defenses until he lost to Águila Solitaria
on June 2, 1980. Guerrera regained the title three days later and went on to have a 808 day reign that included successful title defenses against Pantera II

and Octagón
. In 1989 Guerrera also began working part time in the Tijuana
, Baja California
based World Wrestling Association
promotion, winning the WWA Welterweight Championship twice in 1989 and 1990.
During his title reign Fuerza Guerrera began a long running storyline
feud that quickly drew big crowds as the two talented young wrestlers worked a series of very highly thought off matches. On December 14, 1990 Fuerza Guerrera and Octagón were involved in a three way Luchas de Apuesta ("bet match"), round robin tournament along with Huracán Ramírez
where their masks were on the line. In the end Guerrera managed to defeat both Octagón and Ramírez, forcing the two to face off with their mask on the line. Guerrera sat on the sideline and watched Octagón defeat Ramírez and unmask him after the match per Lucha Libre traditions. On December 15, 1991 Guerrera and Octagón were once again involved in an Apuesta match where each could potentially lose their mask. The two teamed up to take on El Hijo del Santo
and Black Shadow, Jr. in a Relevos suicida match, where the losing team is forced to wrestle each other with their mask on the line. Fuerza Guerrera pinned El Hijo del Santo to keep both his and Octagón's mask safe, while Hijo del Santo would go on to unmask Black Shadow, Jr. On February 15, 1992 Fuerza Guerrera became the first ever CMLL World Welterweight Champion
when he defeated El Khalifa in the finals of a 4-man tournament. Guerrera only held the title for 22 days before losing it to America
.
decided to break away from the promotion and start on his own, founding a company called Asistencia Asesoría y Administración
(AAA). When Peña left CMLL a lot of wrestlers, especially younger wrestlers and lower weight division wrestlers, left with him to AAA, among those to leave was Fuerza Guerrera and his rival Octagón who moved to AAA to continue their feud. One of Peña's creations was the annual Triplemanía event, starting with TripleMania I
on March 30, 1993 where Fuerza Guerrera teamed with Heavy Metal
and Rambo in a loss to Octagón, El Hijo del Santo and Villaño III

to win the Mexican National Tag Team title for a third time. A couple of months later the original Mosco de la Merced left AAA and was quietly replaced by Mosco de la Merced II who took both the original wrestlers bookings and his half of the Mexican tag team title. The team held the tag team titles until losing to the father/son team of Perro Aguayo
and Perro Aguayo, Jr.
