5 Interesting facts you didn't know about Angel Garza

#4. He made his wrestling debut at 15

Garza only signed with WWE in April 2019, but he has actually been wrestling professionally for more than a decade before he was signed by the company, which means that he has a wealth of knowledge inside the ring.

Alberto Del Rio returning to WWE?

Garza comes from a family of professional wrestlers which could be why he was able to make his debut at such a young age. He was just 15 when he stepped in the ring in November 2008 under the name El Hijo del Ninja where he portrayed a masked character.

Garza wrestled under a mask for the next four years until he was part of a reality TV show called Mitad y Mitad: Lucha por el Amor where he voluntarily unmasked as part of the season finale. That was the first time that Garza's face had been seen publically and from that moment forward he made the decision to wrestle without a mask.

Garza joined WWE as an unmasked wrestler more than seven years later and changed his ring name to Angel Garza.
