Pequeño Universo 2000, sometimes also referred to as Universito 2000, is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler. He is working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in their Mini-Estrella division, which does not necessarily mean that Fantasy is a dwarf as several wrestlers who are just shorter in stature work in the "Mini" division. Pequeño Universo 2000'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. His name means "Little Universo 2000" and his ring character is based on Universo 2000, a regular sized Luchador, whom he leases the rights to the name from.
In Lucha Libre it is traditional to keep the true identify of a masked wrestler a secret, not revealing their real names and often not revealing what previous ring names they have competed under. No previous ring identities have been confirmed for Pequeño Universo 2000, but it has been stated that he made his professional debut in 2000 and did not adopt the Pequeño Universo 2000 mask and ring persona until around 2007, which means he worked under other names before this, possibly even working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) as one or several other masked or unmasked Mini-Estrella characters. He adopted the "Pequeño Universo 2000" ring character in 2006, working wearing the same wrestling outfit, including the mask of Universo 2000, playing off the character and the success of the original Universo 2000. It is not uncommon in Lucha Libre to pay for the use of someone else's ring character or gimmick, either as a Mini version or as a "Junior" version of the original, normally when their own career is in its later years.
