Samuray Del Sol is best known for his time in WWE when he wrestled as Kalisto. He was an NXT tag team champion alongside Sin Cara, a WWE Cruiserweight Champion and a two-time WWE United States champion during his stint with the promotion. Kalisto was an integral part of Lucha House Party, who became very popular with the audience.

Following his release from WWE in 2021, he hasn't wrestled anywhere else. He'll appear on AEW Dynamite tonight to partner with Aero Star and challenge FTR for the AAA Tag Team Championship. Aero Star is a top wrestler signed with AAA.
