Professional wrestling career

Tarzan Boy was initially trained as a "técnico" by Blue Fish and made his official debut on November 27, 1993 in Monterrey under the name Baby Toscano. He was turned rudo and aligned with Rey Bucanero and Último Guerrero to form Los Guerreros del Infierno.^[3] Los Guerreros del Infierno feuded with Los Nuevos Infernales (Satánico, Averno, and Mephisto), the stable that Bucanero and Ultimo had recently abandoned.^[3]

Tarzan was programmed with Satánico, while Bucanero and Último were programmed with Averno and Mephisto. The rudo turn proved to be a great move because Tarzan Boy was finally accepted as a headliner and the fans took to his heel turn since they had been booing him as a face. Tarzan later joined a couple of other stables. He joined La Furia del Norte with Héctor Garza, Perro Aguayo, Jr., and El Terrible; and later joined Los Perros del Mal with Perro Aguayo, Jr., Héctor Garza and others. During his career, Tarzan has won the hair of Satánico twice, Negro Casas, Pirata Morgan, Pierroth, Jr., and Brazo de Plata, among others.^{[4][5][6][7][8]} He has lost his hair twice, once to Shocker on September 19, 2003 at the Arena México, and more recently to Naito in the main event of the 2009 Infierno en el Ring event.^[9][10]

Tarzan briefly worked for the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) as Armando Fernandez in 1998 and 1999 on their Lucha libre oriented WWF Super Astros television program.^[11]
