Fuerza Guerrera's real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans.

[1] Since his debut Guerrera has almost always worked as a Rudo, a "bad guy" or "Heel" character, a choice he took early on as it fit with both his personality and his wrestling style.

The combination of Guerrera's in-ring skills, natural charisma and unique mask quickly landed him a regular job working for Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL), Mexico's largest wrestling promotion.

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.

[10] 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.

[1] 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.

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.[12] 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.

[13] In mid 1992 CMLL head booker Antonio Peña decided to break away from the promotion and start on his own, founding a company called Asistencia Asesoría y Administración, later known simply as AAA.

[15] In the months following Triplemanía I Fuerza's son, working under the name Juventud Guerrera, made his debut in AAA and began teaming with his father on a regular basis.

[21] In 1997 Fuerza Guerrera teamed with Jerry Estrada and Heavy Metal, losing to Héctor Garza, Perro Aguayo and El Canek at the World Wrestling Federations (WWF) 1997 Royal Rumble event, a match that came about due to the AAA/WWF working relationship at the time.

At Triplemanía XIII teamed with Los Hell Brothers (Chessman and Cibernético) in main event, losing to Latin Lover, La Parka and Fuerza's career long rival Octagón.

Fuerza teamed with Antifaz and Histeria, losing to the Mexican Powers (Juventud, Joe Líder and Crazy Boy) in a match that also involved El Elegido, KENTA and Taiji Ishimori.

[28] Besides working for IWRG Fuerza Guerrera also worked on Blue Demon, Jr.'s NWA Mexico debut show, teaming with El Dandy and Hijo del Siltario in a main event loss to Blue Demon, Jr., El Hijo del Santo and Rayo de Jalisco, Jr.[27] On June 7, 2008, Guerrera lost the IWRG Welterweight title to Black Terry only to regain it on November 16, 2008.
