Dionicio Castellanos Torres (born May 19, 1971) is a Mexican professional wrestler best known by the ring name Psicosis (sometimes Anglicised as Psychosis). Castellanos has performed for Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as well as a variety of Mexican and American independent promotions. He was the shortest reigning WCW Cruiserweight Champion with a reign that lasted less than an hour. After leaving WWE, Castellanos has mainly worked under the ring name Nicho el Millonario.
Castellanos debuted as "El Salvaje" after being trained by Rey Misterio, Sr. and his brother, Fobia. He often teamed with Fobia and wore face paint. In March 1989, Castellanos would begin wrestling as "Psicosis" for the local promotion in his native Baja California, where some of his biggest feuds pitted him against El Hijo del Santo and Rey Mysterio, Jr. He would eventually wrestle Mysterio Jr. over five hundred times throughout this career, according to Joey Styles at ECW One Night Stand. He also frequently feuded with La Parka (although, they would team up later in WCW) as well as Juventud Guerrera and Juventud's father, Fuerza Guerrera. Psicosis first made a name for himself in the United States through the pay-per-view broadcast, When Worlds Collide, where he, Fuerza Guerrera, and Madonna's Boyfriend picked up a victory over the team of Heavy Metal, Latin Lover, and Rey Mysterio Jr. He would also go on to work three acclaimed matches with Mysterio Jr. in Extreme Championship Wrestling throughout November 1995.
