Titán (Born September 15, 1990 in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico) is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, who is working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) portraying a tecnico ("Good guy") wrestling character. Titan'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. He previously worked under the ring name Palacio Negro from 2008 to 2011.

In lucha libre it is traditional to keep the true identify of a masked wrestler a secret, not revealing their real names and oftentimes not revealing what previous ring names they have competed under, at times the officially listed debut date indicates when a wrestler began wearing a specific mask and using a name, not the professional wrestling debut

He made his professional wrestling debut under the name "Palacio Negro" ("The Dark Palace"), a name inspired by El Palacio Negro de Lecumberri, an infamous prison in Mexico that once housed Pancho Villa. Initially he worked in Guadalajara, Jalisco, home of one of Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre's main wrestling schools. In 2009 Palacio Negro teamed up with Guerrero Samurai to participate in a locally promoted Torneo Tanque Dantes ("The Tank Dantes Tournament") in honor of Alfonso "Tank" Dantés. The duo won four matches in total and lost only one, which was enough to win the tournament. CMLL indicated that they had plans for Palacio Negro and wanted to move him up the ranks of the promotion when he was booked to win an eight-man Infierno en el Ring steel cage match, earning the rings to remove Azrael's mask as per the Lucha de Apuestas ("Bet match") stipulation. The cage match also include a wrestler who would be his future tag team partner, Metal Blanco Palacio Negro remained in Guadalajara for most of 2009, gaining more in ring experience and continuing to train under Gran Cochisse and El Satánico Throughout mid-2009 Palacio Negro had an opportunity to challenge for the locally promoted Occidente Welterweight Championship, but was eliminated in the tournament to crown a new champion by eventual winner Ángel del Mal, he would later be unsuccessful in a title match against Ángel del Mal.
