Pedro Aguayo Ramirez (July 23, 1979 – March 21, 2015) was a Mexican professional wrestler and promoter who achieved fame in lucha libre as Perro Aguayo Jr. or El Hijo del Perro Aguayo ("The Son of Perro Aguayo"). He was the real-life son of lucha libre legend Perro Aguayo and not a storyline "Junior". Aguayo was best known as the leader of the Los Perros del Mal stable, which he started in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in mid-2004. The stable became a significant draw in Mexican professional wrestling, peaking during Aguayo's storyline rivalries with Mistico and Hector Garza. In October 2008, Aguayo left CMLL to start his own independent professional wrestling promotion Perros del Mal Producciones, built around members of his Los Perros del Mal stable. In June 2010, Aguayo returned to Asistencia Asesoria y Administracion (AAA) after a seven-year absence to start an invasion storyline involving his stable. Aguayo died on March 21, 2015, due to a freak accident during a wrestling match, which was covered extensively by many news outlets across the world. Following his death, Aguayo was inducted into the AAA Hall of Fame and the Wrestling Observer Newsletter Hall of Fame.

Pedro Aguayo Ramirez was born on July 23, 1979, in Mexico City, Mexico, son of Luz Ramirez and Pedro Aguayo Damian, a luchador, or professional wrestlier known under the ring name Perro Aguayo. His uncle, Jesus Ramirez Angel, was better known under the name Idolo and his cousins competed as Idolo I and Idolo II. Aguayo's cousin works as "Pepe Aguayo", inspired by Perro Sr.

Debuting professionally at the age of 15, Aguayo started out wrestling established veterans who could bring the best out of him in Asistencia Asesoria y Administracion (AAA). He teamed with his father semi-regularly and the pair won the Mexican National Tag Team Championship on two occasions defeating the teams of Fuerza Guerrera/Mosco de la Merced and El Cobarde II/El Cobarde Jr. to win the championships. He worked his first major shown on June 18, 1995, when he faced and lost to Juventud Guerrera as part of Triplemania III-B. Aguayo, Jr. formed a team of all juniors, Los Junior Atomicos, including Blue Demon Jr., La Parka Jr. and Mascara Sagrada Jr., which actually only included on biological son (Aguayo). The four defeated Charly Manson, May Flowers, Nygma and El Picudo to win the Mexican National Atomicos Championship during a show in Jalisco. Five months later they lost the championship to Los Vipers (Histeria, Maniaco, Mosco de la Merced and Psicosis) at the 1999 Verano de Escandalo show. After Los Junior Atomicos disbanded Aguayo began teaming regularly with Hector Garza, engaging in a four-way storyline feud with Heavy Metal and Latin Lover. These four competed in various tag and four-way matches throughout the lengthy feud. One of the highlights of the storyline was Heavy Metal being shaved bald after losing a four way Steel Cage match on the 2001 Guerra de Titanes show, when Garza pinned Heavy Metal. Later on Latin Lover would defeat Garza in another Lucha de Apuestas, or bet match. Aguayo and Garza defeated Los Vipers (Abismo Negro and Electroshock to win the Mexican National Tag Team Championship. The duo held the title for 61 days before losing it to Pirata Morgan and El Texano.
Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (2003–2008)

In May 2003, Aguayo jumped from AAA to Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). He was initially brought in as a technico to team with Negro Casas against Los Guerreros del Infierno. Aguayo, however, did not receive the expected positive reactions from the crowd, and CMLL decided to turn him heel by having him win a tournament for a shot at Atlantis' Michinoku Pro Wrestling Tohoku Junior Heavyweight Championship. He won the tournament over heels, but they were popular heels like Dr. Wagner Jr. and Rey Bucanero, who had made their name in CMLL, so by the time he met the babyface Atlantis for the title, he was seen as a heel by the fans. The title challenge was unsuccessful, but Aguayo was quickly put into a program with Los Capos with the story being he was getting revenge on Universo 2000 for ending his father's career. During this feud, Shocker's popular Los Guapos group backed Aguayo and he became a face again. The feud continued through the winter and into 2004 and was ended when Aguayo and El Terrible (a member of Los Guapos) defeated Cien Caras and Mascara Ano 2000 in a double hair vs. hair match at the 2004 Homenaje a Dos Leyendas: El Santo y Salvador Lutteroth show. During the spring, Aguayo once again backed up Negro Casas and Shocker in their feud with Pierroth Jr., Vampiro Canadiense and Tarzan Boy. The two groups went at it in trios, singles, and tag matches before they were put in the annual "Cage of Death" match where the last two men in the cage, regardless of which team they are on, face each other in a hair vs. hair match. The heel trio escaped early and Shocker made a quick exit as well. Aguayo and Casas faced each other and Perro pinned Casas, winning his hair. Tensions began to rise between Casas and Aguayo, and when Hector Garza jumped to CMLL in July, Aguayo ditched Casas and joined him. After turning heel again, he took part in the Leyenda de Plata tournament, an annual tournament in the honor of lucha libre legend El Santo. After securing his place in the semifinals, Aguayo interfered in Negro Casas' match with Atlantis, costing Casas the bout and allowing Atlantis to advance. After defeating Atlantis in the semifinals, Aguayo faced the previous year's winner, Felino, for the trophy. After winning the match, El Hijo del Santo came to the ring to award the trophy to Aguayo. Aguayo said he did not want the trophy and smashed it, claiming that Santo wasn't nearly the legend that Perro Aguayo Sr. was. The angle was hot and played off the feud the original Santo and Perro Aguayo had during the 1970s. Due to El Hijo del Santo's short tour with CMLL, the feud was rushed towards an indecisive singles match. The closest thing to closure for the feud was a trios match at the CMLL 71st Anniversary Show where the team of Hijo del Perro Aguayo, Hector Garza and El Terrible (soon to be named La Furia del Norte) defeated Hijo del Santo, Negro Casas and Shocker. After that match, Santo focused more on his program with Averno and Los Guerreros del Infierno and Aguayo set his sights on Casas. Aguayo lost to Casas in a match for the 71st Anniversary show trophy and the feud cooled down from there.

In November of that year, Aguayo reheated his feud with Los Capos by teaming frequently with Vampiro and Pierroth Jr. who were also feuding with Los Capos at the time. At the year-end show, he had another singles match with Universo 2000 which led to Aguayo's father running in and making the save. In February 2005, Perro Aguayo Sr. announced his return to wrestling for one match where he would team with his son against Cien Caras and Mascara Ano 2000 in a double hair vs. hair match. Aguayo and son won the match, billed as Cien Caras' retirement match in the main event of the 2005 Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show. After the match, La Familia de Tijuana (Halloween, Damian 666), and Aguayo decided to start a new faction, Los Perros del Mal ("The Bad Dogs"). Soon, the group would consist of Aguayo, La Familia, La Furia del Norte, Blue Demon Jr., Pierroth Jr. and Pierroth's storyline sons. The group took on many rivals, including Negro Casas, Felino, Heavy Metal (who had just jumped from AAA), Mascara Magica, Universo 2000 and Aguayo's new focus, the rising star Mistico who had defeated him in a main event singles match. The two agreed to a hair vs. mask match, but no date was announced. Los Perros del Mal faced off against their rivals in the 2005 "Cage of Death" match, where Damian 666 took the hair of Mascara Magica. On May 5, 2006, Aguayo was defeated by Rayo de Jalisco Jr. and El Canek in a three-way match for the IWRG Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship in Nezahualcoyotl. Aguayo's final major feud in CMLL was with Hector Garza, which culminated in a Hair vs. Hair match on March 21, 2008, at Homenaje a Dos Leyendas, where Aguayo picked up the win following a low blow.
Los Perros del Mal and return to AAA (2008–2015)
![Perro Aguayo Jr. Perro Aguayo Jr Celebrity Profile Hollywood Life](https://alchetron.com/cdn/perro-aguayo-jr-86ded435-c72c-4d29-a99e-26c58b50840-resize-750.jpeg)
Aguayo left CMLL in October 2008, along with fellow Los Perros Del Mal members, Damian 666 and Mr. Aguila to start his own promotion called Perros del Mal Producciones. The debut show took place on December 7, 2008, in Mexico City running opposed to his former employer, CMLL. On the show Aguayo tagged with Cibernetico and Dr. Wagner Jr. to face L.A. Park, Olimpico and Headhunter A. Aguayo's team was victorious.

On June 6, 2010, at Triplemania XVIII, Aguayo returned to AAA to lead Perros del Mal's invasion of the promotion. The group quickly aligned themselves with Konnan and Dorian Roldan's La Legion Extranjera, La Milicia and Los Maniacos to form La Sociedad. On August 14 at Verano de Escandalo El Hijo del Perro Aguayo wrestled his first major match for AAA since his return, when he, L.A. Park and Damian 666 defeated El Mesias, Cibernetico and La Parka in a six man tag team match, when Perro pinned Mesias. On October 1 at Heroes Inmortales IV El Mesias defeated Perro in a singles match. Afterwards, Aguayo injured his knee, sidelining him for the rest of the year. However, he ended up making a surprise appearance on December 5 during the main event of Guerra de Titanes, helping Damian 666, Halloween and X-Fly hand Los Psycho Circus their first ever loss in steel cage weapons match. On March 18, 2011, at Rey de Reyes, Aguayo represented Los Perros in an eight-man tag team match, where he, Damian 666, Halloween and Super Crazy defeated Potencia Mundial (Dr. Wagner Jr. and Los Psycho Circus), after Aguayo pinned Wagner with La Lanza, following a chair shot.
On April 8, Aguayo underwent emergency surgery to remove a golf ball-sized tumor from his stomach. During the surgery, Aguayo burst a peptic ulcer and was afterward placed in an intensive care unit at the hospital in Guadalajara, Jalisco. Aguayo was released from the hospital on April 19 and was scheduled to receive treatment for his condition for a full year. The following day, Perros del Mal announced that Aguayo's tumor had been found to be benign and that he would be returning to the ring at the promotion's event on May 8. Aguayo made his return to AAA, in a non–wrestling role, on May 1. In his return match on May 8, Aguayo continued his and Los Perros del Mal's feud with Los Psycho Circus by pinning Psycho Clown after a low blow in a six-man tag team match. The feud continued on May 29 at Perros del Mal Producciones' third anniversary show, where Los Psycho Circus defeated Los Perros del Mal in a six man tag team steel cage Masks vs. Hairs match and, as a result, Super Crazy, the last man left in the cage, was forced to have his head shaved bald. Aguayo was set to wrestle as part of Los Perros del Mal at Triplemania XIX, facing Los Psycho Circus to determine the first ever AAA World Trios Champions, but was forced to pull out of the event due to an adverse reaction to the medication given to him as part of his tumor treatment. Aguayo returned on July 24 at a Perros del Mal event, where he teamed Damian 666 and Halloween to face Blue Demon Jr., Cassandro and L.A. Park in a match, which ended in a no contest, when Park turned on his partners. Aguayo returned to AAA on August 19, replacing L.A. Park and teaming with Damian 666 and Halloween against El Mesias, Joe Lider and El Zorro in a six man tag team match, which they lost via disqualification when Lider was attacked by his former tag team partner Nicho el Millonario. After the match, Aguayo officially named Nicho the newest member of Los Perros del Mal. Aguayo made his return to pay-per-view on October 9 at Heroes Inmortales, where he unsuccessfully challenged Dr. Wagner Jr. for the AAA Latin American Championship in a Bullterrier match. Afterward, Aguayo began feuding with Jack Evans. On December 16 at Guerra de Titanes, Aguayo and Evans continued their rivalry in a six-man tag team match, during which they busted each other open. Eventually, Aguayo's team won the match, when Hector Garza pinned Fenix. The feud between Aguayo and Evans continued to Rey de Reyes on March 18, 2012, where Aguayo pinned Evans to win the Rey de Reyes tournament and earn a match for the AAA Mega Championship. On August 5 at Triplemania XX, Aguayo unsuccessfully challenged El Mesias for the AAA Mega Championship. Afterward, Aguayo started a year-long rivalry with Cibenetico, which culminated in a Lucha de Apuestas in the main event of Triplemania XXI on June 16, 2013, where Aguayo was victorious, forcing his rival to have his head shaved bald.
In August 2013, Aguayo came together with Cibernetico to help him in his battle with his former La Secta stable. On October 18 at Heroes Inmortales VII, La Secta eliminated both Aguayo and Cibernetico as well as El Mesias from the Copa Antonio Pena, which led to the three retaliating by costing Secta members Dark Escoria and Dark Espiritu their match for the AAA World Tag Team Championship. Aguayo's technico turn was seemingly completed on November 22, when Los Perros del Mal members Daga and Psicosis turned on him, labeling him a traitor for teaming with Cibernetico. However, on December 8 at Guerra de Titanes, Aguayo turned on Cibernetico, rejoined Daga and Psicosis and brought Los Perros del Mal back under the umbrella of the reformed La Sociedad. On August 17, 2014, at Triplemania XXII, Aguayo started a new feud with the debuting El Patron by attacking him and his father Dos Caras at the start of the show. Later that night in the main event, Aguayo defeated Cibernetico, Dr. Wagner Jr. and Myzteziz, the former Mistico, in a four-way elimination match to win Copa Triplemania XXII. After the match, Aguayo was immediately attacked by El Patron. The attack led to a match at Heroes Inmortales VIII where Aguayo Jr. and El Texano Jr. defeated El Patron and El Mesias. In subsequent months Aguayo Jr. focused on Myzteziz, and resuming the storyline that started in CMLL when Myzteziz was known as Mistico, with Aguayo issuing a challenge for a Mask vs. Hair match at Triplemania XXIII. The storyline led to the main event of the 2015 Rey de Reyes where Aguayo Jr. teamed up with Pentagon Jr., only to lose to Myzteziz and the returning Rey Mysterio Jr.
Death
On March 20, 2015, Aguayo wrestled a tag team match, teaming with Manik against Rey Mysterio Jr. and Xtreme Tiger at a show for The Crash promotion in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. During the match, Mysterio used a headscissors takedown to propel Aguayo out of the ring, but Aguayo returned to the ring, upon-which Mysterio dropkicked Aguayo in the back/shoulder to set up for Mysterio's signature 619 as Aguayo landed on the middle rope. Manik then fell onto the middle rope Aguayo was resting on. At this point, Aguayo appeared to be limp. Mysterio performed the 619, but did not hit either opponent. The match continued, but was quickly finished by Mysterio pinning Manik. Konnan attempted to revive Aguayo at ringside by shaking him. Officials later brought Aguayo out of the ring. When paramedics arrived, Aguayo was brought to the local Del Prado hospital, where he was pronounced dead around 1:00am on March 21. Aguayo was 35 years old.
According to the initial announcement from the hospital, Aguayo died from a cervical spine trauma, reportedly as a result of a dropkick by Mysterio Jr. that propelled him forward to the ring ropes, causing severe whiplash trauma that snapped his neck. The cause of death was later announced as cardiac arrest, due to a cervical stroke caused by three fractured vertebrae. Autopsy results showed that Aguayo broke his C1, C2, and C3 vertebrae. The coroner stated that the fractures took place at two different moments of impact and that Aguayo died almost instantly. Aguayo was not immediately attended to by a physician and was actually taken from the ring on a piece of plywood instead of a stretcher, which lead to some criticism of the event organizers. However, the coroner stated that it made no difference. The Tijuana wrestling commission later explained that the doctor was backstage, attending to two other injuries that happened during the show. One of those injuries was a spinal injury and they did not want to remove that wrestler from the stretcher he was on, which was why they used the plywood to move Aguayo from the ring. The doctors worked on resuscitating Aguayo for over an hour before declaring him dead. On March 21, the attorney general for Baja California announced that they would conduct an investigation into the death of Aguayo and the circumstances surrounding it to determine if there was the possibility of any criminal charges to be filed. Aguayo Jr. was buried in Guadalajara on March 23 with Konnan and Rey Mysterio Jr. serving as pallbearers. After his death, the Comision de Deporte del Senado del Mexico presented the initiative "Ley para la Seguridad del Deporte en el Pais".
Several promotions, including AAA, CMLL, The Crash, Lucha Underground and World Wrestling League (WWL), paid tribute to Aguayo following his death. On August 9 at Triplemania XXIII, Aguayo was inducted into the AAA Hall of Fame.
