Francisco Javier Costilla Macedo (born December 3, 1974) is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, better known by his ring name Ramstein. He is working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) portraying a rudo ("bad guy") wrestling character. He is a former member of the wrestling groups La Alianza and Pandilla Guerrera.
Francisco Costilla began his wrestling career in 1993, working as the enmascarado (masked) character Fugaz, which is Spanish for "Fast", a reference to his high flying, fast paced wrestling style. At some point early in his career Costilla was forced to remove the Fugaz mask after losing a Luchas de Apuesta ("Bet Match") against Enemigo Publico. Later on he lost another Luchas de Apuestas match, this time to Rayo Tapatío I, and as a result had to have his hair shaved. In late 1998 or early 1999 he began working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), one of Mexico's biggest and the world's oldest wrestling promotion. On July 16, 1999, Fugaz teamed up with Sangre Azteca to defeat the team of Sombra de Plata and Ricky Marvin in match that stole the show, earning the four youngsters a standing ovation from the crowd. The success of this match earned all four a match at CMLL's biggest show of the year the CMLL 66th Anniversary Show, which took place on September 24, 1999. This time Marvin and Sombra de Plata won the match. Fugaz was teamed up with the veteran Scorpio, Jr. to participate in the 1999 Gran Alternativa tournament, where a rookie and a veteran team up. The tournament took place on December 17, 1999, and had the team advance to the finals by defeating the teams of Sombra de Plata and Lizmark and Negro Casas and La Flecha. In the finals they lost to El Felino and Tigre Blanco. Costilla made his last CMLL appearance as "Fugaz" on July 9, 2001, teaming with former rival Enemigo Publico to defeat the team of Neutron and Olimpus.
