Stigma is a Mexicanluchadorenmascarado, or maskedprofessional wrestler working for the Mexicanprofessional wrestling promotionConsejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) portraying atecnico ("Good guy") wrestling character. Stigma's real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans.[3] While his real name is not public knowledge it has been confirmed that he is the brother of CMLL wrestlerSkándalo, son of former wrestler El Jabato and grandson of Manuel Robles, making him a third-generation wrestler.[1]
Stigma is the son of Benjamin Mar who used to wrestle under thering name El Jabato. His uncle Panico (Juan Manuel Mar) is part ofConsejo Mundial de Lucha Libre's (CMLL)booking team and thus is one of the men that plan the matches and storylines of thepromotion.[1] He is the brother ofSkándalo who works for CMLL as well but as arudo ("Bad guy" character) while Stigma is atecnico ("Good guy"). He is a third-generation wrestler as both his paternal and maternal grandfathers, Manuel Robles and Raul Reyes, were wrestlers as well. His great uncles include wrestlers Huroki Sito,Sugi Sito and Panchito Robles, his uncle wrestles as Zapatista while his second cousinsVictor Mar Manuel (who worked as Black Cat until his death), Panchito Robles Jr., La Briosa also were or are wrestlers.[4]
Stigma's official debut date was given as July 26, 2010, but as he is amasked wrestler it is possible that he worked as a different ring character before that date.[3][2] Stigma trained at theConsejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) wrestling school inPuebla, Puebla and worked primarily in Arena Puebla early on. Initially he made a large number of mistakes during his matches, due to nerves and inexperience, but the mistakes coupled with the fact that the Arena Puebla bookers quickly promoted him up the ranks made the fans critical of him and often booed him during his early career.[2] Stigma stepped back, intensified his training and by 2012 he had become a more skilled, well rounded wrestler who was earning his position in CMLL through his skills. He was one of 16 young wrestlers who participated in the first everTorneo Sangre Nueva ("Young Blood Tournament"), designed specifically to elevate some of these young wrestlers up the ranks. Stigma took part in the Block Atorneo cibernetico elimination match. Stigma lost toCancerbero in a match won byDragon Lee.[5] In the months following theSangre Nueva tournament Stigma became involved in a "Puebla vs.Los Coliseinos" (wrestlers who came fromArena Coliseo in Mexico City), defending his home town of Puebla against the "Outsiders".[6] The feud led to a 12-mantorneo cibernetico' where "Team Puebla" (Stigma, Asturiano, Espiritu Maligno, Karissma, Lestat and Milenium) defeated "Team Coliseinos" (Dragon Lee,Hombre Bala Jr.,Pegasso,Puma King, Skándalo andSúper Comando).[7] The following week all 12 competitors risked either their mask or hair as they participated in aLucha de Apuesta ("Bet match")Steel cage match. Stigma escaped the cage, keeping his mask safe while Puma King defeated Karissma to unmask him.[8] Stigma made hisSuper Viernes debut on theOctober 5, 2012 version, teaming withCamaleón to defeatLos Hombres del Camoflaje (Artillero and Súper Comando).[9][10][11] Working on CMLL's main show was a sign that CMLL had plans to promote Stigma on a national level instead of only locally in Puebla. Stigma participated in the 2013Torneo Sangre Nueva, but like in 2012 did not make it past the preliminary round as he was eliminated byBobby Zavala.[12] In late March, 2013 Stigma was announced as one of theNovatos, or rookies, in the 2013Torneo Gran Alternativa, or "Great Alternative tournament". TheGran Alternativa pairs a rookie with an experienced wrestler for atag team tournament.[13] Stigma teamed with veteranLa Mascara. The two competed in Block A on April 12, 2013 losing toTaurus andAverno in the first round.[14][15] Stigma defeated Espiritu Maligno for his first Mask vs Mask in July 29, 2013 in Arena Puebla. Stigma defeated Camorra for his Mask vs Mask on December 30, 2013 in Arena Puebla. In Arena Puebla, on July 16, 2014 Stigma unsuccessfully challengedVirus for theCMLL World Lightweight Championship. In January 2015, Stigma made hisNew Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) debut, when he worked theFantastica Mania 2015 tour, co-produced by CMLL and NJPW.[1] In May, 2015 CMLL Stigma competed in a qualifying match for the2015 version of En Busca de un Ídolo as one of 16 wrestlers in the qualifyingtorneo cibernetico, elimination match where the last eight wrestlers would qualify for the tournament. He competed againstAkuma,Blue Panther Jr.,Cancerbero,Canelo Casas,Delta,Disturbio,Esfinge,Flyer,El Gallo,Guerrero Maya Jr.,Joker,Pegasso,Raziel,Sagrado andBoby Zavala.[16] Stigma pinned Pegasso during the match but ended up being the seventh wrestler eliminated, pinned by Esfinge.[17][18]
