About El Cuatrero
Born 1996. El Cuatrero is a Mexican professional wrestler.
Early life Rogelio Reyes N. was born in 1996, the son of professional wrestler Carmelo Reyes González, better known under the ring name Cien Caras ("100 Faces"). His older brother, known as Sansón ("Samson"), was born in 1994. His uncles Jesús (known as Máscara Año 2000) and Andrés Reyes González (Universo 2000) were also professional wrestlers. Initially, Carmelo Reyes did not want his sons to become professional wrestlers, wanting them to get an education instead. He reluctantly agreed that they could learn lucha Libre from their uncle Andrés, but only as a hobby, not a career. During their training, Carmelo noticed how seriously both sons took the business and reluctantly agreed to let them become professional wrestlers.
There is a long tradition of wrestlers paying for the right to use a ring name in Mexican wrestling, including being allowed to portray a second or third-generation wrestler without being related to the originator of the ring character. It has been confirmed that wrestlers Cien Caras Jr. and El Hijo de Cien Caras are unrelated to the Reyes family, while it is unclear if Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 is actually a blood relative or if the relationship is purely fictional. Carmelo Reyes later stated that he allowed the "Cien Caras" name to be rented by other wrestlers as his sons were very young and might not want to become professional wrestlers. In an interview, Cuatrero said that he wrestled briefly as "Máscara Universal", but his father did not like the name and instead suggested he change it to "El Cuatrero" ("The Cattle Rustler"); the character was inspired by the cowboy gimmick that his father and his uncles had used during their careers. During their time working locally in Lagos de Moreno, the duo won their first Lucha de Apuestas ("bet match") against Los Centellas (I and II), who were forced to unmask, per lucha libre traditions. On January 30, 2015, El Cuatrero and Sansón competed in a tournament to determine the number one contenders for the local Occidente Tag Team Championship, but were eliminated by Flash and Flash II in the first round. Months later, the brothers teamed with Jocker in a tournament for the championship, but lost to Furia Roja, Mr. Trueno and Ray Trueno in the finale on May 3. On November 1, El Cuatrero, Sansón and their cousin Forastero defeated them to capture the Occidente Trios Championship. At that point, the Reyes brothers began being referred to as Nueva Generación Dinamita ("New Generation Dynamite"; NGD), a reference to their heritage. On March 18, they defeated Soberano Jr. and Oro Jr. in the opening match of Homenaje a Dos Leyendas ("Homage to Two Legends"). Four days later, El Cuatrero was paired with Rey Bucanero in the annual Torneo Gran Alternativa ("Great Alternative Tournament"), where younger wrestlers team up with established veterans, losing to Místico and Tritón in the first round. A year later, on June 2, 2017, El Cuatrero was paired with his uncle Máscara Año 2000 for that year's Torneo Gran Alternativa, but lost in the first round by Atlantis and Esfinge. Despite early limited success, Nueva Generación Dinamita 's booking experienced a turning point on July 22, when he and Sansón defeated Black Terry and Negro Navarro to win the CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship, CMLL's second-highest ranked tag team championship. On November 24, the trio won the family-oriented Copa Dinastías ("Dynasties Cup") tournament, defeating the trios of Blue Panther, Blue Panther Jr. and The Panther, and then Dragon Lee, Místico and Pierroth. They were paired for the Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increíbles ("National Incredible Pairs Tournament"), in which a rudo (the "bad guy") and a tecnico (the "good guy") team up, but lost to Atlantis and Mr. Niebla in the first round on February 9. On February 14, Nueva Generación Dinamita announced that they were giving up the CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship to focus on winning the more prestigious CMLL World Tag Team Championship. In the main event of Homenaje a Dos Leyendas on March 16, El Cuatrero defeated Ángel de Oro, forcing him to remove his mask and state his birth name. On April 22, Nueva Generación Dinamita defeated Ángel de Oro, his brother Niebla Roja and Soberano Jr. to retain the Mexican National Trios Championship. El Cuatrero made his first and second successful defense of the CMLL World Middleweight Championship, respectively, against Ángel de Oro on June 1 and July 16. At the CMLL 85th Anniversary Show on September 14, Nueva Generación Dinamita defeated Atlantis, Místico and Soberano Jr. On October 26, El Cuatrero was involved in a torneo cibernetico to determine the number one contender for the Rey del Inframundo ("King of the Underworld") championship, where he eliminated Audaz and Flyer, before being the second to last wrestler eliminated by Esfinge. On November 6, Cuatrero made his third successful title defense against Titán.
At Sin Piedad ("No Mercy") on January 1, 2019, El Cuatrero, Forastero and Templario lost to Lee, Penta 0M and King Phoenix. Three days later, Nueva Generación Dinamita again retained their title over Ángel de Oro, Roja and Soberano Jr. On February 4, El Cuatrero participated in the Universal Championship tournament, where all sixteen participants held a CMLL-recognized championship, defeating perennial rival Soberano Jr. in the first round before losing to Último Guerrero in the quarter-finals. At Homenaje a Dos Leyendas on March 15, Nueva Generación Dinamita defeated Bárbaro Cavernario, Gilbert el Boricua and Negro Casas. They made yet another successful title defense against the Ángel de Oro, Roja and Soberano Jr. trio on April 9. For the Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increíbles nine days later, El Cuatrero was paired with Místico, defeating Hechicero and Stuka Jr. in the first round and Atlantis and Casas in the quarter-finals, before losing to Guerrero and Volador Jr. in the semi-finals. At the CMLL 86th Anniversary Show on September 27, Nueva Generación Dinamita successfully defended the Mexican National Trios Championship against Carístico, Místico and Valiente. On December 12, El Cuatrero made his fourth successful CMLL World Middleweight Championship defense against Carístico.
El Cuatrero and Sansón unsuccessfully challenged Carístico and Místico for the CMLL World Tag Team Championship at Sin Piedad on January 1, 2020. On February 21, he and Valiente lost to Atlantis Jr. and Casas in the first round of that year's Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increíbles. Three days later, El Cuatrero and Sansón won the Torneo de Parejas Familiares ("Family Team Tournament"), defeating the uncle/nephew team of Rey Bucanero and Drone in the first round, the father/son team of Euforia and Soberano Jr. in the second round, and the Gran Guerrero/Último Guerrero brothers in the finals. On March 26, 2021, they defeated Los Guerreros Laguneros (Euforia, Gran Guerrero and Último Guerrero) to win the CMLL World Trios Championship.
New Japan Pro-Wrestling (2018–2020) El Cuatrero made his debut for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) in January 2018 as part of the NJPW and CMLL co-produced Fantastica Mania 2018 tour. On January 19, El Cuatrero defeated Ángel de Oro to win the CMLL World Middleweight Championship. During the Fantastica Mania 2020 tour in January 2020, Cuatrero and his brother participated in the family tag team tournament, where they ended up defeating Los Hermanos Chavez (Ángel de Oro and Niebla Roja) in the finals. On the final day of the tour, January 20, NGD successfully defended the Mexican National Trios Championship against Los Hermanos Chávez and Titán.
Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (2021–2023) Nueva Generación Dinamita made their debut for Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) on August 14, 2021, at Triplemanía XXIX, attacking Mr. Iguana, Aramís and Octagon Jr..

Independent circuit (2014–2026) While working for CMLL, Cuatrero, like all CMLL workers, was allowed to take independent circuit work on days he was not booked for a CMLL show or appearance. On February 19, 2017, Cuatrero and Sansón unsuccessfully challenged Black Terry and Negro Navarro for the CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship at a Lucha Memes show in Puebla. NGD also successfully defended the Mexican National Trios Championship against Los Kamikazes del Aire (Alas de Acero, Aramis, and Iron Kid) at a subsequent Lucha Memes show.
As part of CMLL's collaboration with The Crash Lucha Libre, Nueva Generación Dinamita appeared on several The Crash shows over the years. In their initial appearance for The Crash, Nueva Generación Dinamita lost to La Rebelión Amarilla (Bestia 666, Jacob Fatu and Mecha Wolf 450). The team returned to The Crash for their VII Anniversary Show on November 3, 2018, where they lost to Los Lucha Bros (Penta El 0M and The King) in a match for The Crash Tag Team Championship that also included Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster the Legend). They returned to The Crash in December, losing to Bestia 666 and Garza Jr. In 2019, Cuatrero and Sansón began an extended storyline against Los Traumas (Trauma I and Trauma II). In June, Sansón was forced to team up with Trauma I to face Cuatrero and Trauma I in a relevos increíbles ("incredible pairs" match), where the regular partners refused to wrestle against each other. In the end, Sansón and Trauma I won after Trauma II hit El Cuatrero during the match. This was followed by a tag team match where NGD defeated Los Traumas by disqualification as part of their ongoing storyline.
On June 26, 2019, Cuatrero, Forastero and Sansón appeared at International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG)'s annual Festival de las Máscaras show. The trio defeated their cousin Máscara Año 2000 Jr., who teamed up with Capo del Sur and Capo del Norte.
Femicide case and prosecution On March 4, 2023, CMLL wrestler Stephanie Vaquer filed a domestic violence criminal complaint against Reyes, who had worked with her in the past for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). According to the complaint, Cuatrero forced onto her by choking her and throwing her against a wall. On March 9, CMLL released a statement stating that they "energetically condemn any form of violence against women and reiterate our commitment to promote a life free of violence and harassment in our staff and attendees to our arenas." On March 10, after a show for AAA in the city of Aguascalientes, Reyes was arrested on an arrest warrant in Mexico City and charged with attempted femicide and domestic violence. Although he was denied parole in June 2024, he was released in March 2025, pending the further prosecution of Reyes by the prosecutor's office of Mexico City. A rumored motion of forgiveness from Vaquer was vigorously denied by the office. In May 2026, Reyes was found guilty and sentenced to 12 years and eight months in prison.
