Sombrita

Pequeño Bronce (1992–1994) He made in-ring debut for CMLL in August 1992, brought in to CMLL to fill the void in their Mini-Estrellas division after a large portion of them left CMLL in the summer of 1992 to join the newly formed Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA). He initially competed as the masked "Pequeño Bronce" ("Little Bronze") a Mini-Estrella version of the wrestler known as Bronce. Pequeño Bronce regularly teamed with Orito, just like Bronce had often teamed with Oro. On October 26, 1993, Oro died after an in-ring accident. Which led to CMLL abandoning the Orito character not long after out of respect. With Orito gone from the ring Pequeño Bronce, as a character, did not last much longer in CMLL either.

Sombrita (1994–2011) In April 1994 Teucli was given a new ring character, mask and outfit making his debut as "Sombrita" ("Little shadow"), a rudo (wrestling term for those that play the bad guys) version of La Sombra. Early in his career as Sombrita he won a Lucas de Apuestas, or bet match, where the loser of the match would be forced to unmask. He defeated Aguilar de Acero, forcing the future Máscara Sagrada Jr. to unmask in front of everyone in the arena. Sombrita appeared on the CMLL 72nd Anniversary Show that took place on September 16, 2005, where he teamed up with Pequeño Violencia and Pierrothito, losing to the trio of Bam Bam, Pequeño Olímpico and Último Dragoncito. Sombrita was one of 10 Mini-Estrellas competing in the first ever Pequeños Reyes del Aire ("Little Kings of the Air") tournament, a Mini-Estrella version of the Reyes del Aire tournament. Sombrita was the first man eliminated as he was pinned by Bracito de Oro. In September 2008 CMLL reintroduced the Mexican National Lightweight Championship, promoting it in the Mini-Estrella's division as a secondary title along with the CMLL World Mini-Estrella Championship. Sombrita entered the tournament for the vacant championship, but did not make it past the qualifying torneo cibernetico elimination match on September 16, 2008. After making only sporadic appearances for a year or two Sombrita competed in an Infierno en el Ring Steel cage match where the last man in the cage would be forced to unmask. The match also included Asturiano, Bracito de Oro, Eléctrico, Fantasy, Mascarita Dorada, Pequeño Black Warrior, Pequeño Ninja, Pequeño Olímpico, Pequeño Universo 2000, Pierrothito, Sauron, Tzuki and Último Dragoncito. In the end the match came down to Sombrita and Mascarita Dorada, with Dorada pinning his opponent to win the match. Following the match Sombrita was forced to remove his mask and state his birth name as per the Luchas de Apuestas stipulations.
