José Roberto Islas García (born June 9, 1977) is a Mexican Luchador or professional wrestler, better known by his ring name Billy Boy. Billy Boy has worked for the majority of his career in the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración, where he most notably teamed with Alan and Decnnis to form Los Barrio Boys and works under the ring name Billy el Malo ("Billy the Evil One") as a member of Los Bizarros. Since 2004 he has been involved in a long-running storyline feud that revolves around his relationship with Faby Apache, his real-life wife, as well as his father-in-law, Gran Apache, and involved Billy Boy and Faby Apache's son Marvin.
Islas began his professional wrestling career in 1997 under the ring name "Fighterman", a stripper character aimed primarily at female fans. Later, his ring name was changed briefly to Luigi Boy, then to just Billy as he was teamed up with Jimmy Boy and Vangelis to form a boy band inspired group called Los Spice Boys. At Triplemanía VII Jimmy Boy, Billy, and Vangelis defeated Los Payasos (Coco Amarillo, Coco Rojo, and Coco Verde) in one of the undercard matches. At the 2000 Guerra de Titanes event Los Spice Boys lost to Los Vatos Locos (Espiritu, Nygma, Picudo and Silver Cat).
In 2001 his gimmick was modified to Billy Boy and he was made part of a group called Los Barrio Boys along with Alan (formerly known as "Spice Boy" Jimmy Boy) and Decnnis. The team worked extensive storyline feuds with Los Diabólicos (Ángel Mortal, Mr. Condór, and Marabunta), and were also part of a storyline with AAA trainer Gran Apache, to help the young team improve their in-ring skills. On September 16, 2001, Los Barrio Boys made their first major show appearance as they wrestled the team of Milano Collection AT, Oyanagai Nitohei, and an unknown partner to a draw at Verano de Escándalos. A few months later Los Barrio Boys teamd with Ice Cream to defeat Los Diabolicos and Police Man in the opening match of Guerra de Titanes. On December 12, 2002, Los Barrio Boys teamed up with Oscar Sevilla to defeat Los Vatos Locos to win the Mexican National Atómicos Championship. The team had one successful title defense, defeating Hator, Monje Negro, Jr., El Potro, and Ben Hur on April 6, 2003. On July 18, the team lost the Atómicos title back to Los Vatos Locos but would regain them under a month later when they defeated Los Vatos Locos on August 8. Sevilla and Los Barrio Boys successfully defended the Atómicos title against Los Exoticos (Pimpinela Escarlata, May Flowers, Polvo de Estrellas, and Sexy Francis) on October 26. Their second, and final run with the Mexican National Atómicos title ended on August 20, 2004, when they were defeated by The Black Family (Chessman, Ozz, Cuervo, and Escoria), ending their combined reigns at 606 days in total. On December 5, 2004, Los Barrio Boys won a four way match against The Black Family, Los Kumbria Kids and Los Espantapajaros at Guerra de Titanes.
