Los Psycho Circus is a Lucha libre, or professional wrestling, trio who works for the Mexico City based Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) as a Technico (good guy) team. The trio consists of three enmascarado, or masked, wrestlers known under the ring names Psycho Clown, Monster Clown and Murder Clown. They are former two-time AAA World Trios Champions and were also the last holders of the Mexican National Atómicos Championship with Chessman. Los Psycho Circus is most known for an exaggerated undefeated streak since their debut in 2007, they are announced at having won over 600 matches. The streak came to an end in December 2010.
Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) has a long history of using clown based ring characters ever since the company was founded in 1992, most famously the group known as Los Payasos (Spanish for "The Clowns") that existed until 1999. AAA later tried to promote other clown trios such as Payasos del Mal ("Evil Clowns") in 2007. It was not until AAA took the wrestler who had worked as Aliens, Kronus (son of Brazo de Plata) and a third wrestler whose previous identity has not been revealed and turned them into Los Psycho Circus. Aliens became known as Zombie Clown, Kronus became Psycho Clown and the third man became known as Killer Clown. Unlike previous clown characters who wore fabric masks Los Psycho Circus wore rubber masks with more horrific, twisted facial expressions, inspired by the movie Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Psycho Clown's mask features a foot high brightly colored Mohawk and a long plastic tongue, Zombie Clown's mask features rotting yellow teeth, skin blotches and a small blue tophat while Murder Clown's mask features vampire like fangs and a balding multicolored afro. Each of the wrestlers was given a backstory befitting their twisted and dark characters, complete with statements about the clowns "rejoicing in the pain of others" and "Violence without measure", a fabricated profile to help enhance their "evil" characters.
