He had first seen lucha libre at the local El Cortijo Bull fighting arena and later visited Mexico City where he began training at the wrestling school associated with Arena México and Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL), which was the biggest wrestling promotion in Mexico in the early 1960s.

[3] After a year of ballet and working on incorporating the moves and mannerism into his repertoire, Carbajal was given a beautiful, sparkly ring robe by Chamaco Naturalista prior to his return to Mexico City.

[10][11] Carbajal has stated in interviews that Aníbal was the first wrestler to defeat him in a Luchas de Apuestas, or bet match, and thus forced the image obsessed character to be shaved completely bald after his loss.

[8][9][12] In 1976, EMLL decided to book Adorable Rubí as the NWA World Light Heavyweight Champion when he defeated Dr. Wagner on February 27, 1976.

[14] On July 16, 1976, Carlos Plata became the new NWA World Light Heavyweight Champion, pinning Adorable Rubí in the main event of an Arena Mexico show.

[14] On Marcy 13, 1981, Adorable Rubí was unsuccessful in his challenge for the Mexican National Heavyweight Championship as he lost to Cien Caras.

[6][17] In the early-1980s, a new type of Exótico emerged in Mexico, where they were now overtly homosexual, somethings in real life, sometimes only in their ring persona, adopting certain aspects also found in drag queen culture.

[1][3][18] Both during active career and after his retirement, Carbajal expressed his dislike for the "New Exótico" where it was more about the spectacle of the character such as kissing other men as a way of gaining an advantage during a match than wrestling.

[6][20] His career was winding down as he only made one title defense during the 747 days that he held the championship which was a loss to Charro de Jalisco on October 24, 1986.

[21] Carbajal retired in 1989 and settled in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico where he lived quietly, only occasionally doing interviews about his wrestling past.
