Early career (2007–2010)

edit

After being trained by both his grandfather Pablo Moreno Román, better known by his ring name El Soberano, and his father, best known under the ring name Euforia, Soberano Jr. made his professional wrestling debut on December 24, 2007, at the age of only 13. Initially, he wrestled on the local independent circuit in Torreón, Coahuila.[1][2] Before using the name Soberano Jr. or El Soberano Jr., the same ring name used by his father and grandfather, he competed as El Nieto del Soberano ("The Grandson of Soberano").[4]

Soberano Jr. began training in the Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) wrestling school and competed in CMLL's 2010 Bodybuilding contest prior to his in-ring debut for the company, placing third in the beginners category.[5] He made his in-ring debut for CMLL on June 7, 2011, teaming with Trueno in a loss to Semental and Apocalipsis at Arena México.[1][2][6] In March 2012, Soberano Jr. was one of the participants in the Torneo Sangre Nueva ("The New Blood Tournament"), featuring sixteen wrestlers classified as rookies (or at least rookie characters), but failed to win the eight-man torneo cibernetico.[7][8] During a match on the September 7 Super Viernes between Soberano Jr. and Horus and Camorra and Inquisidor, Soberano Jr. was injured due to a mistimed move and was carried out of the arena on a stretcher.[9]
