Arkalis (born July 17, unknown year inSan Martín Texmelucan,Puebla) is a Mexicanluchadorenmascarado, or maskedprofessional wrestler currently working for the Mexicanprofessional wrestling promotionConsejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) portraying atecnico ("Good guy") wrestling character.[3] His 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.[1]
His nicknames areChamaco de Oro andHombre de Retos.[4]
After being trained in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libres school in Arena Puebla,[3] Arkalis first recorded match under that name happened in June 2014.[5] However, in a 2023 interview, Arkalis stated that he had 15 years of wrestling experience, so it is likely that he either worked smaller undocumented shows previously or worked under a different name in his earlier career.[6] In interviews he stated he would be paid as little as 50pesos for his first matches.[7]
For a couple of months during the summer of 2014 he worked smaller shows in Puebla state before he made his official debut with CMLL on September 16, 2014. Until 2018 he only worked for CMLL in Arena Puebla, as well as on the independent circuit.[5] However, in mid 2018 he started working in Mexico City, inArena México andArena Coliseo and became officially a part of the CMLL roster.[3]
Since moving to Mexico City, Arkalis is a part of theFuerza Poblana faction together with fellow Puebla wrestlersGuerrero Maya Jr.,Stigma,Pegasso andRey Samuray.[8][9] The unit often works in the midcard of CMLL shows and has challenged for theMexican National Trios Championship in May 2022 but was unsuccessful.[10]
