Aaron Rodríguez (born June 13, 1976) is an American professional wrestler, better known by his ring name Sicodelico Jr. Rodríguez is the son of Sicodelico and the nephew of Mil Máscaras and Dos Caras, and the cousin of Alberto Del Rio (Dos Caras Jr.).
Rodríguez was born on June 13, 1976, son of Pablo Rodríguez better known as luchador Sicodelico. With most of the Rodríguez family involved in Lucha Libre, it was no surprise that Sicodelico Jr. decided to follow in his father's footsteps.
After being trained by his uncle Dos Caras, Sicodelico Jr. made his debut in January 1998, initially working on the Mexican Independent circuit. In mid-1998 he was signed by Asistencia Asesoría y Administración and joined a group of wrestlers called Los Junior Atómicos, that already included La Parka Jr., Perro Aguayo Jr. and Mascara Sagrada Jr. Sicodelico Jr. only stayed with AAA for a year as he was replaced in the group by Blue Demon Jr.
In 2001, Sicodelico Jr. signed a contract with the other big wrestling promotion in Mexico Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) and started working as an opening match wrestler. In August 2001, Sicodelico Jr. was teamed up with veteran Olímpico to compete in that year's Torneo Gran Alternativa, where a newcomer and an established star team together in an elimination tournament. The team qualified for the final by defeating the teams of Gran Markus Jr. and Doctor X and Blue Panther and Virus. On August 14, 2001, Sicodelico Jr. and Olímpico met and defeated the team of Black Warrior and Sangre Azteca in the finals to win the 2001 tournament. Following his win Sicodelico Jr. made a few main event appearances on lesser CMLL shows but did not attain much else over the next couple of years.
