Mini Máximo or Pequeño Maximo is a Mexican luchador, or professional wrestler currently working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in their Mini-Estrella division. Not everyone who works in the Mini-Estrellas division are dwarves, but at 1.14 m (3 ft 9 in) Mini Máximo is a dwarf.[2] He works under dual identities as he also works as the enmascarado ("Masked") mascot Zacarias for the La Peste Negra. As Mini Máximo he portrays a tecnico ("Good guy") wrestling character, while Zacarias is a rudo ("Bad guy") wrestling character.

Professional wrestling career

The wrestler later known as Mini Maxmo started his wrestling career in 2007, working under the ring name KeMorito, a take off on Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) Mini-Estrella Mascota KeMonito.[1] He would later begin working for CMLL as "Ultimonito", a deliberate imitation of KeMonito as he would help Los Guerreros del Infierno as they went out of their way to punish the tecnico ("Good guy") KeMonito. Tzuki had originally played the role, but by Mid 2007 CMLL needed someone else to play the part.[1] After the Ultimonito character was abandoned he worked as a regular Mini-Estrella under the name "Atomo", although due to his very short stature did not work regularly as an active competitor.

Mini Máximo (2008–present)

He returned in 2008 under a new ring character, reintroduced as "Mini Máximo", at times referred to as "Pequeño Maximo", a mini version of the Exotico character Maximo, imitating the real Maximo down to the bright pink hair and effeminate mannerisms during matches. Maximo was only associated with Mini Máximo for a brief period of time, enough to introduce him, after which CMLL kept the two characters separated. Mini Máximo was one of 16 Mini-Estrellas to compete in a Ruleta de la Muerte, ("Roulette of Death"). In a Ruleta de la Muerte tournament tag teams face off in a single elimination tournament, but unlike traditional tournaments it is the losing team that advances in this case. The team that loses the tag team match final must immediately wrestle against each other in a Lucha de Apuestas match, where either their mask or their hair is on the line.[3] Mini Máximo teamed up with Pequeño Halcón in the fight to keep their mask or hair (in Mini Máximo's case) safe. In the first round they defeated the team of CMLL World Mini-Estrella Champion Pequeño Olímpico and Shockercito, protecting their mask and hair.[4]

La Peste Negra (2011–present)

Main article: La Peste Negra

In 2011, the wrestling group La Peste Negra ("The Black Plague"), consisting of Negro Casas, Mr. Niebla and El Felino, added Rey Bucanero ("King Buccaneer") to their group when Mr. Niebla was injured. When he teamed with La Peste Negra, Bucanero wore ring gear that looked more like Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean movie series than he usually did.[5] He also introduced a mascota corner-man, a little person wearing a fabric parrot mask and feathered full body suit making him appear as an anthropomorphic parrot. The mascota was initially called "Perico" (Spanish for parakeet) and would accompany members of La Peste Negra to the ring and at times help them cheat during the matches. Later, Rey Bucanero would leave the group when Mr. Niebla returned but Perico remained with the group as the comedic parrot character suited La Peste Negra better. Later he changed his name to Zacarias, at times referred to as Perico Zacarias.[6] Over time, Zacarias has developed a long-running rivalry with fellow Mini mascotas Mije and KeMonito and brawls between any of the Mascotas usually draw a loud reaction from the crowd.[7][8][9] He has not actively wrestled under the Zacarias name, only as Mini Máximo, which he still works as also.
