Professional wrestling career In Mexico, it is traditional to keep the true identify of a masked wrestler a secret, not revealing their real names and oftentimes not revealing what previous ring names they have competed under.

Mercurio (2011–present)

Arrieta adopted the Mercurio ring character in late 2010, including wearing a mask with the symbol of the planet Mercury and the element Mercury. Mercurio made his character debut on December 26, 2010, working as a rudo ("Bad guy") character teaming up with Pequeño Universo 2000 and Pequeño Black Warrior and was booked to lose to the tecnico team of Aereo, Mascarita Dorada and Último Dragóncito. On August 21, 2011 CMLL held a Ruleta de la Muerte (Spanish for "Roulette of Death") tournament for the Mini-Estrellas division and include Mercurio as one of the participants. The Ruleta de la Muerte tournament format is based on the Lucha Libre Parejas Increibles match type where two wrestlers of opposite allegiance, have to team up.

Over the summer of 2012 CMLL decided to book Mercurio in one of the focal storylines of the Mini-Estrellas division as he began a feud against Fantasy. the storyline started out in Best two out of three falls Six-man tag team matches where the two would focus more on each other than the other men in the ring. As the storyline escalated the two would tear at each other's masks, at times winning by pulling the mask off the other one to gain an unfair advantage. In September, 2012 it was announced that the storyline would culminate in a Luchas de Apuestas ("Bet Match") on October 14, 2012, a match where both competitors put their mask on the line. On October 14 Fantasy defeated Mercurio to unmask him as per Lucha Libre traditions and reveal his real name, Abraham Arrieta González. On November 6, 2012, 12 competitors met in a special steel cage match where the loser of the match would be forced to unmask or have his hair shaved completely off. Mercurio was the second person to escape the cage, which meant his hair was not going to be shaved off. Minutes later, while Mercurio was still on the floor outside the cage Astral dove off the top, but due to the cage mesh breaking earlier in the match, Astral got caught up on the cage and landed awkwardly on Mercurio, Aéreo and Fantasy. The bad fall caused Astral to be rushed out of the arena for immediate attention and Mercurio had to be carried to the back as well due to the impact of Astral.
