Atlantis
He is a Mexican wrestler whose real name is unknown, as he fights masked. Known by the nicknames The Idol of the Children; The Prince of Atlantis, Atlantis Badness, The Idol of the Rude Children, The Ogre of the Children, Atlantis Legend, Atlantis the King. His son is the masked wrestler Atlantis Jr., and his brother the masked wrestler Atlántico. His teacher was Diablo Velazco. His debut was June 12, 1983 - Pista Arena Revolución in Mexico City; appears to have wrestled outside of Mexico City as early as September 1982. He is 5'8"/177 cms, and weighs 202 lbs/92 kg. He has defended his mask in wager matches 18 times, unmasking Mano Negra, Kung Fu, Ultimo Guerrero and Villano III, among others. After being a career técnico (babyface), Atlantis was changed to a rudo (heel) in 2005. It did not appear to be his idea or even the promotion's idea, but the fans forcing a change. CMLL had been building up Atlantis, including weekly Seccion Azul features trumpeting his work with kids or focusing an award being given to Atlantis, to push him as the ultimate good guy. The build was the setup for a Dr. Wagner Jr./Atlantis mask match, the culmination of a long rivalry. Unexpectedly to the promotion, once the fans realized the long teased mask match would actually happen, they turned on Atlantis and threw their support vocally behind Dr. Wagner Jr. Wagner had turned tecnico in 2004 when the crowds adopted him as a new hero following the death of his father. The Doc was riding the wave of new tecnico support at the time, while Atlantis was the same unchanged man he'd been for years and had slowed down as a worker.
