Professional wrestling career

Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (2008–2011)

After wrestling for years in the Torreón area under the name Semental, he would move to Mexico City in 2008. After a short stint with International Wrestling Revolution Group, he would start working in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre in March 2008. He wrestled regularly for CMLL for over three years, generally working opening matches that rarely made TV. He had his last match for the promotion on June 28, 2011 and then showed up in AAA two days later.[1]

Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (2012–2016)

He made his AAA debut June 30 in Tizayuca, still under the name Semental. He would have two more TV matches for the promotion in 2011.[2]

In mid-2012 AAA introduced a new masked trio known as Los Inferno Rockers[3] (Machine Rocker, Devil Rocker and Soul Rocker), a trio of masked, glam-rocker inspired wrestlers who resembled the rock band Kiss.[4][5] It was later verified that the former Tito Santana was under the Soul Rocker mask. The trio was set up as the rivals of Los Psycho Circus (Psycho Clown, Murder Clown and Monster Clown), who at the time had been undefeated for years. They later introduced the 201 cm (6 ft 7 in) tall Uro Rocker to the team, targeting Psycho Clown specifically.[6] It was later revealed that Uro Rocker was supposed to be the main rival of Psycho Clown, but the wrestler playing the part hurt wrestlers he worked with and was quickly dropped from the group.[7]

The group lost to Los Psycho Circus at the 2012 Guerra de Titanes show, their first appearance at a major AAA show.[8] 18 days later the trio wrestled International Wrestling Revolution Group's Los Oficiales (Oficial 911, Oficial AK-47 and Oficial Fierro) in one of the featured matches on the Arena Naucalpan 35th Anniversary Show when the match ended in a double pinfall.[9] In early 2013 Los Inferno Rockers finally defeated Los Psycho Circus, gaining some momentum in their ongoing feud.[10] They repeated the feat at the 2012 Rey de Reyes show, seemingly escalating their feud towards a Lucha de Apuestas, or "bet match" where the teams would put their masks on the line.[11][12] The Apuestas match never happened and Los Inferno Rockers were soon diverted from Los Psycho Circus. In later 2013 Devil Rocker left AAA and was replaced by Demon Rocker to remain a trio.[13] a member of the Los Inferno Rockers stable.[14] The team was phased out throughout 2014, with Demon Rocker taking over the "La Parka Negra" character. By early 2015 Machine Rocker no longer appeared on AAA shows either. On October 4, 2015 Machine Rocker was repackaged and introduced as "Taurus", signaling the end of Los Inferno Rockers as a unit won a Royal Rumble Lumberjack match to win the Copa Antonio Peña.[15]

On September 10, 2016, Taurus announced his departure from AAA.

Lucha Libre Elite (2016)

Taurus debut as Black Tauro with Lucha Libre Elite teaming with Cibernetico and Sharlie Rockstar was defeated by Decnis, Mr. Aguila & Zumbido.[16] On November 10, Tauro teaming with Rey Escorpión defeat L.A. Park & Mr. Aguila.[17]

Return to AAA (2018–present)

On June 1, 2018, Taurus returned to the AAA after helping to retain the AAA Reina de Reinas Championship of Faby Apache, in front of Ashley.[18] On August 10, 2019, Taurus lost a title match for the AAA Mega Championship to champion Fénix, the match also included Laredo Kid and Puma King.

On the February 9, 2021 edition of Impact Wrestling, Taurus made his return to Impact Wrestling on a more regular basis, when Rosemary and Crazzy Steve introduced him as the newest member of their stable Decay, soon afterwards picking up a quick victory over Kaleb with a K.[20]
