Edgar Gabriel Morales Correa, better known under the ring name Loco Max (born March 10, 1972 in Mexico City, Mexico) is a Mexican luchador, or masked professional wrestler currently on the Mexican professional wrestling independent circuit portraying a rudo ("Bad guy") wrestling character. As Loco Max Morales worked for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) for many years where he was a part of groups known as Pandilla Guerrera and Los Guerreros Tuareg and also held the Mexican National Lightweight Championship.
Morales made his in ring debut on May 3, 1993 under the ring name "Loco Max" ("Crazy Max"/"Mad Max") and worked on the Mexican independent circuit for a number of years. in the late 1990s Loco Max began working for CMLL, primarily on their Guadalajara, Jalisco shows. During the time he developed a storyline feud with Ricky Marvin, with the two fighting over the Mexican National Lightweight Championship, held by Marvin at the time. On March 12, 2001 Loco Max won his first wrestling championship as he pinned Ricky Marvin to win the championship. The quality of the matches and more importantly the fans reaction to the matches earned both Loco Max and Marvin a chance to work in Mexico City, CMLL's main venue.
In 2002 CMLL created the Guapos University ("Hansome University"), or Guapos U, a storyline mimicking realities shows such as the WWE Tough Enough show, searching for a new member to join Shocker and Máscara Mágica as part of a group known as Los Guapos. The contestants included Loco Max, El Terrible, Mr. Power, Genetico, Tony Rivera, Zumbido, Ricky Marvin, Loco Max, Alex Steel, Marshall and Caballero with all of them going through various in and out of ring challenges to prove "worthy" of joining Los Guapos. The show spanned many shows and Loco Max was eliminated from the group about mid way through. In the end El Terrible won the contest and became a member of Los Guapos. In late 2003 Loco Max teamed up with Nitro and Violencia to participate in a tournament for the vacant Mexican National Trios Championship, but the trio was eliminated in the first round by the team of Averno, Mephisto and El Satánico. Around this time Loco Max began developing an in ring character that was actually "Loco", having lost all touch with reality Loco Max would start to talk and interact with stuffed animals, thinking they were his friends. In late 2003 CMLL held another Guapos U contest but when Loco Max tried out for the show Los Guapos turned him down since crazy was not Guapo.
