Professional wrestling career
El Hijo del Villano III made his first in-ring appearance at the age of just 13, working an exhibition match on the undercard of a show honoring his father's 40th wrestling anniversary. Once he turned 15 and could be licensed by the boxing and wrestling commission, he made his official debut on December 25, 2013. During the build to his debut CMLL presented him as a natural rival to Atlantis Jr., mirroring the rivalry between Villano III and Atlantis. On May 25, 2019, El Hijo del Villano III participated in his first major CMLL tournament, the Puebla version of their annual Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increíbles tournament where a rudo and a tecnico are forced to team together for the tournament. El Hijo del Villano III was teamed up with one of CMLL's main event performers, Carístico. The mismatched duo defeated Atlantis and Vangellys in the first round, Audaz and Sansón, before ultimately losing to Niebla Roja and El Terrible in the semi-final round. The second-generation rivalry between the Villano and Atantis family led to El Hijo del Villano III and Atlantis Jr. facing off in their first one-on-one match on July 5, 2019, a match that ended in a double count out as both wrestlers were fighting outside the ring for too long. ==Championships and accomplishments==
