José Christian Alvarado Ruiz[1] (born November 8, 1980) is a Mexican retired Luchador or professional wrestler, better known by Máximo (Spanish for "Maximus").

Maximo while working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) as Máximo Sexy until May 2017.

The young José Christian grew up watching his father and his uncles wrestle all over Mexico and wanted nothing more than become a professional wrestler himself.

[1] Alvarado made his professional wrestling debut in April, 2000 under the ring name Corazon de Dragón ("Dragonheart") and later worked as Pepe Rous.

Máximo retained the "toga" look that came from his original idea but turned to pinks and purple colors to boost the Exótico image.

[5] On April 29, 2007, the team lost the Mexican National Trios Title to the Los Perros del Mal ("The Evil Dogs") faction of Mr. Águila, Damián 666 and Halloween.

The title change was facilitated by El Texano Jr. turning on his partners mid-match, giving Los Perros an easy victory.

[6] Not long after turning Rudo (the Lucha Libre term for heel, or villain) Texano Jr. joined Los Perros del Mal and began a long-running, on again, off again, feud with Máximo.

[9] In the fall of 2009 Máximo began a feud with Japanese wrestler Okumura as part of a longer running "Mexico vs. Japan" storyline.

La Peste con Amour won when Máximo kissed Panther, distracting him long enough for Mr. Niebla to sneak up behind him to roll him up for the pinfall.

[13] La Peste con Amour stopped teaming in mid-March when Mr. Niebla reportedly suffered a knee injury.

[19] The following day, Máximo picked up his first win in Japan, when he and Jushin Thunder Liger defeated Taichi and Misterioso Jr. in a tag team match.

[25] In the fall of 2012 El Bufete began a feud against the Mexican National Trios Champions Los Invasores (Volador Jr., Mr. Águila and Kraneo).

[31] During the third event of the tour, on January 17, Máximo unsuccessfully challenged Rey Escorpión for the CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship.

[45] The cousins were originally announced as being booked to wrestle against L.A. Park and Dr. Wagner Jr. in the main event of a Lucha Libre Boom!

[46] On January 26, Máximo along with La Máscara made their debut in Guerra de Titanes to help his brother Psycho Clown and thus forming his team called, Los Mosqueteros del Diablo ("The Musketeers of the Devil").

Máximo made a special appearance on the October 11, 2018, edition of IMPACT Wrestling, which was taped September 13–14, 2018 at Mexico City's Frontón México Entertainment Center, defeating Grado with schoolboy roll-up after having momentarily stunned the latter with a kiss.

[47][48] José Christian Alvarado is part of a very large family of professional wrestlers all descendants of Shadito Cruz, most of whom use or have used a variation of the name "Brazo" ("Arm") in their ring name.
