Esfinge (born June 14, 1993 in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico) is the ring name of a Mexican Luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, currently working for the Mexican Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) wrestling promotion. Esfinge'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. He is the son of professional wrestler Magnum and the grand son of wrestler "Halcon Furia" and has previously also worked under the name "Halcon Furia Jr." Esfinge is Spanish for Sphinx.
The wrestler later known as Esfinge made his in ring debut in late 2009, wrestling under the ring name "Halcón Furia Jr.", the same name his uncle used for years and was an homage to his grandfather who was the original Halcón Furia. In 2011 he was given a new ring identity, name and mask becoming "Esfinge" a character with Egyptian inspiration. Due to the secretive nature of masked wrestlers in Mexico Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), the professional wrestling promotion that Esfinge works for lists his debut as September 13, 2011, the debut of the Esfinge character. In September, 2012 Esfinge was one of eight Guadalajara, Jalisco based wrestlers working for CMLL who competed in a Steel cage match, in which the last wrestler in the cage would be forced to unmask under Luchas de Apuestas, or "Bet match" rules. In the end Metatrón, Infierno, Acertijo, Black Metal, Halcon de Plata and Mr. Trueno all escaped the ring, leaving Esfinge to face off against In Memoriam. The match ended when Esfinge defeated In Memoriam, In Memoriam to unmask after the match and reveal his name as per Lucha Libre traditions. Esfinge teamed up with Black Metal to compete in a tournament for the vacant Occidente Tag Team Championship, but the team were defeated in the semi-finals by Sky Kid and Smaker. In early 2014 CMLL held a tournament to determine the next challengers for the Occidente Tag Team Championship, pairing Esfinge up with semi-regular partner El Gallo for the tournament. In the first round the duo defeated Pitbull I and Pitbull II, in the second round they defeated Mr. Trueno and Rey Trueno and finally Exterminador and Malefico in the finals to earn a match for the championship. On February 28, 2015 Esfinge and El Gallo defeated Olímpico and Boby Zavala to win the championship. On May 12, 2015 they successfully defended the championship against the CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Champions La Comando Caribeño (Misterioso Jr. and Sagrado).
