Jonathan Figueroa (born April 26, 1982) is a Puerto Rican professional wrestler and promoter better known by his ring name, Amazing Red, or simply Red for short currently working on the independent circuit. He is best known for working for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), where he is a former three-time X Division Champion, while also working on the American independent circuit. Figueroa is also the founder of House of Glory wrestling school, based in Ridgewood, Queens, New York City, and is also one of the head trainers. He is the cousin of wrestlers Joel and Jose Maximo and Rosita.

Figueroa originally wrestled as Red, but Savio Vega decided to expand his ring name to include the word "Amazing" while he worked for the International Wrestling Association in Puerto Rico, giving origin to his more common pseudonym, Amazing Red.

Red, who was already known for his work in the United States independent circuit, joined Total Nonstop Action Wrestling at its 2002 inception, quickly establishing himself in its X Division. During his first run in TNA Red held both the TNA X Division Championship and the NWA World Tag Team Championship with Jerry Lynn, simultaneously. While working for TNA he also wrestled for Ring of Honor as a member of the three man tag team The S.A.T. with cousins, Jose and Joel Maximo. Eventually he began to team with "The Phenomenal" A.J. Styles, becoming known together as Amazing Phenomenon. The team would go on to win the ROH Tag Team Championship from Christopher Daniels and Donovan Morgan.
