José Ángel Bocanegra González[1] (born February 7, 1981) is a Mexicanluchador, or maskedprofessional wrestler, best known under thering nameOficial 911. As Oficial 911 he is part of a group calledLos Oficiales that has worked forInternational Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) since 2007. The team held the record for the longest-reigningDistrito Federal Trios Champions and are the most successful holders of theIWRG Intercontinental Trios Championship, holding it longer than any other trios team and having defended it more times than any previous champions have. Bocanegra previously wrestled asComando Mega in IWRG as well.
Bocanegra began wrestling in 2001, although it has never been publicly acknowledged whichring name he used at the time. In Mexico it is not unusual for wrestlers to gain in-ring experience under a genericenmascarado (masked) character early in their careers.[2] In 2003 he adopted theenmascarado character "Comando Mega" inInternational Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG), the name under which he first gained in-ring success. Comando Mega teamed up with Comando Gama and Comando Alfa as the "arch enemies" of an IWRGtécnico (good guy) group calledLos Megas (Mega,Super Mega andUltra Mega).[3] The storyline between the two factions saw Mega and Ultra Mega defeat Comando Mega and Comando Gama in aLucha de Apuesta, mask vs. mask match on June 6, 2004. Following the loss both Comando Mega and Comando Gama were forced to unmask, effectively ending the storyline between the two factions.[3] From 2005 until early 2007 Bocanegra worked as Comando Mega, often taking part in random mid-card trios matches.
In early 2007 IWRG officials decided to form a new version of the groupLos Oficiales ("The Officials"), a masked trios group that all had a "Police officer" ring character. The three masked men, Oficial 911,Oficial AK-47 andOficial Fierro were unveiled at a Lucha Libre festival in May 2007. It was later revealed that Bocanegra was the wrestler under the Oficial 911 mask, just as other IWRG under-card wrestlers had been repackaged as Oficial AK-47 and Oficial Fierro. Oficial Fierro was in fact Bocanegra's old rival Ultra Mega. On July 7, 2007, the trio defeated Japanese trio ofKai,Sasaki andYamato to win theDistrito Federal Trios Championship, a title that had been relatively inactive up for at least a year before Los Oficiales won the belts.[4]
Los Oficiales defended the Trios title on a regular basis, giving credibility to both the Trios championship and to Los Oficiales as a group. On September 28, 2008, Los Oficiales became double champions as they defeated Cyborg, Kraneo, Xibalva (who had all been members of previous incarnations of Los Oficiales) to win theIWRG Intercontinental Trios Championship.[5] Their success in 2008 led to several Mexican publications naming Los Oficiales as the best Trio, or runner up for best Trios team for 2008.[6] Los Oficiales run as double Trio champions ended on December 7, 2008 whenLos Terrible Cerebros (Black Terry, Dr. Cerebro and Cerebro Negro). Los Oficiales continued to defend the IWRG Trios title through 2009 and into 2010 where they had made at least 9 successful defenses of the title, more than any previous title holder, by April 21, 2010.[7] Their success also saw them named the best version of Los Oficiales.[8]
Oficial 911 has also achieved individual success, including winning aLucha de Apuesta or bet match against thenIWRG Intercontinental Lightweight ChampionTetsuya Bushi, forcing him to unmask after the match per Lucha Libre traditions.[9] On March 3, 2011,Los Oficiales lost the IWRG Intercontinental Trios Championship toJoe Líder,Silver King, andÚltimo Gladiador, ending their reign at 886 days.[10] On July 17, Oficial 911 defeatedMultifacético in aLucha de Apuesta mask vs. mask match.[11] In late November 2012 it was announced that 911,Oficial Factor,El Hijo de Pirata Morgan, andEl Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 had all agreed to risk their masks in aPrison Fatal steel cage match on December 2, 2012. The last person in the steel cage would be forced to unmask.[12] ThePrison Fata match came down to Factor and Oficial 911 after the other two competitors escaped the cage. At one point allOficiales andOficiales Elite were actually in the cage, but in the end 911 managed to escape, forcing Factor to unmask.[13] On February 7, 2013,Los Oficiales lost the Distrito Federal Trios Championship to El Hijo de Pirata Morgan,Pirata Morgan, andPirata Morgan, Jr.[14] Ten days later on February 17, Oficial 911 defeatedEl Ángel andTrauma II by countout, which meant that he would not be forced to put his mask on the line in a subsequentLuchas de Apuestas match, slated for March 3, 2013, while Trauma II and El Ángel would put their mask on the line.[15] The decision was later reversed by the Mexico City wrestling commission, who stated that because 911 won by countout, he was put back inLuchas de Apuestas match. On the night 911 escaped with his mask safe, pining both Trauma II and El Ángel. In the end Trauma II pinned El Ángel even after Los Oficiales attacked both competitors.[16] On December 19, Oficial 911 andMosco X-Fly took part in a three-way tag teamLucha de Apuestas. The match ended withGolden Magic pinning 911 for the win, forcing X-Fly to have his head shaved and 911 to remove his mask and reveal his true identity.[1] On June 15, 2014, 911 and AK-47 defeatedApolo Estrada, Jr. andEl Hijo del Diablo to win theIWRG Intercontinental Tag Team Championship.[17]
