Norberto Salgado Salcedo (born March 10, 1958) is a retired Mexican luchador (professional wrestler), best known under the ring name Pierroth Jr. Salgado made his professional wrestling debut on July 1, 1984, working as an Luchador Enmascarado, or masked wrestler, using the name Pierroth Jr. Over the years Salgado has worked for Mexican professional wrestling promotions Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), and International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) as well as making several tours with the Puerto Rico-based World Wrestling Council (WWC). In 1997 and 1998 Salgado made several appearances for the World Wrestling Federation as part of the AAA/WWF talent exchange agreement between the two companies. He lost his mask as a result of losing a match to La Parka. In the late 1990s Pierroth became "Comandante Pierroth", leader of a faction of Puerto Rican wrestlers in CMLL known as Los Boricuas, despite being born in Mexico. After having suffered a stroke in november 2008 Salgado retired from wrestling.
Over the years several wrestlers have used the name "Pierroth", or variations on that name, in professional wrestling.
Since early 2009 only Pierroth II and Pierrothito have used the Pierroth name, all others have stopped using the name.
