Description: Dr Wagner Mexican Luchador Black AAA Wrestling T-Shirt Men's XL Dr. Wagner, real name Manuel González Rivera, was born on April 13th, 1936 (usually announced as 1941, which was his "worked" birth date) in Zacatecas, Zac. However, he grew up and lived the rest of his life in Torreón, Coah., so he considered himself a "Lagunero". He trained for lucha libre in Guadalajara's "Gimnasio Hércules", which was owned by Roy Velasco. Back in those days, he would wake up at 5 AM and work for five hours at the "Corona" market, loading and unloading trucks. After a lot of hard work, Manuel debuted on July 16th, 1961 in Guadalajara, Jal. as Centella Negra (Black Lightning Spark), teaming with Torbellino Negro (Black Whirlwind) against Pancho Ramírez and Monje Loco (Mad Monk). The name did not last long, as in 1962, Mexican-Jewish promoter Elías Simón, who ran in the North of the country, suggested he should switch names to El Hijo del Médico Asesino. Rudo doctor gimmicks were pretty popular back then in México and he liked the idea but not the name. Médico Asesino had died in June, 1960 and he was not happy with the idea of being the fake junior of a legend who had died in his prime as he wanted to build his own legend. He was at home, either listening to a Richard Wagner composition or reading a book about him, when he came up with the name of Dr. Wagner.
