Histeria (wrestler): Difference between revisions

In 1997 the original Histeria, now known as [[Super Crazy]], left AAA to work for [[Promo Azteca]]. AAA owner [[Antonio Peña]] decided to reuse the character without publicly acknowledging that a different wrestler was playing the role. Quarterback II was given the outfit and name and from that moment forward became the "official" Histeria and made part of ''[[Los Vipers]]''.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://clutch.mtv.com/2010/07/12/the-10-most-intense-lucha-libre-masks-of-all-time/| title= The 10 Most Intense Lucha Libre Masks Of All-Time | author= Scheitum, Kevin | date= July 12, 2010 | accessdate= July 16, 2010 | publisher= [[MTV]]}}</ref> On August 23, 1998 Histeria, [[Psicosis, II|Psicosis]], [[Maniaco]] and [[Mosco de la Merced]] teamed up to participate in a tournament for the vacant [[Mexican National Atómicos Championship]], representing ''Los Vipers''.
