Day 4178 325. El Hijo del Santo.
El Hijo del Santo is the only son of the Silver-Masked Man who had a total of ten children, which has followed the footsteps of his father in the fight and on the screen.
His debut was "without parental consent, under the name and mask of Korak. Santo wanted one of his sons continue the tradition of the struggle, but would first complete his studies in college. A few months after completing his career in Communication Sciences, the Son of Santo made his debut wearing the costumes of their father, Ringo computer Mendoza against Sangre Chicana and Colossus Colosetti in Nuevo Laredo. Although fans were happy to see a son of the Holy in the ring, most were very skeptical that they can gain the popularity of the father.
"Boon", as many began to call, quickly impressed the crowds with their aerial skills. Its physical size is smaller than that of his father, but has the same movement, the same tactics and shots (like "horse" and the "cap of Christ") and is faster. After his debut began to fight and gain notoriety, in 1983 being designated the "Rookie of the Year."
His first title was the UWA Weight Light, who won in 1984 beating a young Black Casas, who later became the most memorable opponent Hijo del Santo. He kept his title for over two years, until in 1987 he was defeated by Espanto Jr. (whose mask Santo had won in battle in 1986). Santo Jr. vs. Espanto Jr. was a "revival" of those fighting the respective parents argued decades ago. Santo Jr. eventually won the hair of his rival, coming to regain the lightweight title in 1988.
In 1990, the Holy Son made its debut in Japan, along with other Mexican wrestlers as Blue Panther, Super Astro y Fuerza Guerrera. In June of that year, Santo WWA won the welterweight title. The following year UWA vacated the lightweight title (as had happened to welterweight). Previously he won the UWA Welterweight title defeating Charles Lucero in Monterrey, Mexico in 1990.
Over the following years, Santo had several confrontations with Erick Casas (brother of the Black House), Psycho, Eddy Guerrero, and even a Black Ghost (clone black mask that supposedly came from South America to take his mask and destroy) none other than Espanto Jr.
Santo in 1997 even teamed for the first time in combat Homes Black double against Scorpio Jr. and Bestia Salvaje although this did not end with the traditional struggle between two giants of the struggle.
today to El Hijo del Santo has had an enormous task, which was to prove he deserved to carry the mask and the legacy of Rodolfo Guzmán Huerta (Santo, his father). Over twenty-five years and countless memorable matches has become the most important Mexican wrestler.
The film has not been a stranger, began with "Chanoc and Son of Santo vs. the Vampire Murderers" (1981), in which he receives the mask and the advice of his father to start their own fight against crime. Later, in "lawless frontier" (1983) starred with the legendary Mil Mascaras. The progressive lack of interest in the cinematic genre of fighters, was on the removal of Santo Jr. film for over fifteen years. He returned in "Infraterrestre" (2000), produced by Cineproducciones Molinar in which it is credited as "Ghost" (Lon Chaney Jr. as he was credited as "Lon Chaney" without the "Jr."). Time will tell if the film there is a "revival" or not.
