Cesáreo Anselmo Manríquez González (August 27, 1920 – June 16, 1960), known by the ring names Médico Asesino and later El Médico, was a Mexican professional wrestler and actor who wrestled in Mexico and in the NWA territory of Texas.
The following year, he won the Mexican National Heavyweight Championship, which he held at the time of his death.
[1] In 1956, Médico Asesino joined the Dallas, Texas-based promotion Southwest Sports under the ring name El Medico, winning the NWA Texas Heavyweight Championship four times.
[2] In 1952, a superhero motion picture serial was made entitled The Man in the Silver Mask, which was supposed to star El Santo, but he declined to appear in it, because he thought it would fail commercially.
Instead, Médico Asesino was cast in the lead role, wearing a white mask similar to Santo's silver one.
