Carta Brava Jr. (born January 18, 1987 in Mexico City, Mexico) is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler currently working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) portraying a rudo ("bad guy") wrestling character. Carta Brava Jr.'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.
There is some confusion about the character Carta Brava Jr. in professional wrestling as there are two different wrestlers using the same name and same mask design at the same time. Both claim to be sons of the original Carta Brava and have a long running storyline feud based around the claim, it is believed they are actually brothers with this version of Carta Brava Jr. being the younger brother who took the name in 2008 when the previous Carta Brava Jr. was not an active wrestler.
The future Carta Brava Jr. made his professional wrestling debut in 2005 using the enmascarado (masked) character Antaris, not revealing that he was related to Carta Brava. As Antaris he worked for a number of Mexican wrestling promotions, including International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG), where he wrestled against his brother Carta Brava Jr. on the undercard of the 2005 Rey del Ring show, losing the match.
In 2008 his older brother had not been working as Carta Brava Jr. for a couple of years, either because he was not wrestling at all or because he was using a different ring name, which led Antaris to adopt the Carta Brava Jr. name and the mask of his father, only updating it with bright colors compared to the black and white design of the original mask. In 2009 the other Carta Brava Jr. resumed wrestling, working primarily in International Wrestling League (IWL) and not making it obvious that there were two different wrestlers using the name. In IWRG Carta Brava Jr. was one of 10 wrestlers to complete in the 2010 El Castillo del Terror ("The Tower of Terror") steel cage match where the loser of the match would be forced to unmask. Carta Brava Jr. joined Oficial 911, Oficial AK-47, Alan Extreme, Centauro, Comando Negro, El Hijo de Aníbal, El Hijo del Cien Caras, Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Máscara Año 2000 Jr. and Trauma I as they all outlasted Arlequin Negro, forcing him to unmask. IWRG held a one night, ten man tournament on February 6, 2011 to determine the first ever IWRG Junior de Juniors Champion. Carta Brava Jr. participated in the tournament along with second generation wrestlers Bestia 666, Hijo del Canek, El Hijo de L.A. Park, El Hijo de Máscara Año 2000, El Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Kung Fu Jr., Bobby Lee Jr., Trauma I and Ultraman Jr. Carta Brava Jr. lost in the first round to El Hijo de L.A. Park. On November 3, 2011 he participated in yet another El Castillo del Terror steel cage match, where he, Oficial 911, Hijo de L.A. Park, Golden Magic, El Hijo de Máscara Año 2000, Machin, Oficial Spartan, Super Nova and Zumbi who all outlasted King Drako. On December 22, 2011 at the Arena Naucalpan 34th Anniversary Show Carta Brava Jr. defeated Dinamic Black to win the IWRG Intercontinental Lightweight Championship. A few weeks later Carta Brava Jr. was teamed up with Máscara Año 2000 Jr. to compete in IWRG's El Protector tag team tournament. The team defeated Tritón and Tony Rivera but lost to Centvrión and Negro Navarro in the second round.
