Miguel Ángel Lugo, better known under the ring name Eterno (born September 26, 1990) is a Mexican luchador, or professional wrestler currently working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotions Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA), International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG), Desastre Total Ultraviolento (DTU) and on the Mexican independent circuit portraying a rudo ("bad guy") wrestling character.
Miguel Ángel Lugo made his professional wrestling debut on September 16, 2006, working as an enmascarado, or masked wrestler under the ring name "Eterno" (Spanish for "Eternal"). Initially he worked primarily for in and around Coacalco, State of Mexico, especially on locally promoted shows in Coliseo Coacalo. In July, 2008 Eterno and Lobo Metálico lost a Luchas de Apuestas, or "bet match" to El Forastero and Estigma and thus were forced to permanently unmask. Following his mask loss Eterno began a long running storyline rivalry with Daga who also started his career in and around Coacalo. The feud between the two led to a number of well received matches that would give both Eterno and Daga the opportunity to work for lager wrestling promotions in Mexico. One such promotion was International Wrestling League (IWL) where both Eterno and Daga competed, including a match for the IWL Internet Championship, a match won by Daga. By 2010 Eterno began working for International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) out of Naucalpan where he competed primarily as a rudo, playing the part of the bad guy. His first major IWRG event was the 2010 Guerra de Empresas, teaming with Último Gladiador to defeat the teams of Aeroboy and Violento Jack as well as Daga and Tribal. While working in IWRG he also trained in the IWRG training school under Negro Navarro and Black Terry and participated in IWRG's Torneo Futuro Idolos de Lucha Libre (FILL) tournaments, including one on November 16, 2010 that he won by outlasting 17 other wrestlers in a torneo cibernetico, elimination match that also included Alan Extreme, Bugambilia, Centvrión, Comando Negro, Dinamic Black, Extremo Boy, Golden Bull, Guardian de la Noche, Guerrero 2000, Keshin Black, Maligno, Menfis, Oass, Rayden, Rayito Mendoza, Saruman and Shark Boy. His long running rivalry with Daga gave both of them an opportunity to work for Toryumon Mexico on their 2010 Young Dragons Cup show, with Daga defeating Eterno two falls to one. In 2010 Eterno began working regularly for Desastre Total Ultraviolento (DTU) as well as IWRG, and even formed a group called Los Mazisos that also included Ciclope, Arana de Plata, Pequeno Cobra, Loco Max, Terremoto Negro and La Mazisa. IWRG held a Torneo Relampago de Proyeccion a Nuevas Promesas de la Lucha Libre on January 13, 2011, a tournament where a Novato or rookie teamed up with an experienced wrestler for a tag team tournament. Eterno was teamed up with experienced wrestler Veneno but the duo lost in the first round to eventual tournament winners Comando Negro and Scorpio, Jr. For IWRG's 2011 Rebelión de los Juniors event on March 27 Eterno was forced to team up with El Pollo Asesino to wrestle the team of Comando Negro and Multifacético in a Relevos Suicidas match. The team lost and as per the Relevos Suicidas stipulations were forced to wrestle each other under Luchas de Apuestas rules, a match which Eterno won, forcing El Pollo Asesino to have all his hair shaved off. In May, 2011 Eterno worked his first match for Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA), one of Mexico's larges wrestling promotions. Eterno teamed up with IWRG representatives Cerebro Negro and Dr. Cerebro to compete in a tournament to determine the first ever holders of the AAA World Trios Championship, but lost to the AAA groupLos Bizarros (Billy el Malo, Charly Manson and Cibernetico) in the first round of the tournament. Eterno was one of eight wrestlers competing for the vacant IWRG Intercontinental Welterweight Championship on September 8, 2011, but lost to Dr. Cerebro in the first round.
