Perro Aguayo

Perro Aguayo

Pedro Aguayo (born January 18, 1946) better known as "(El) Perro Aguayo" (Dog Aguayo) and El Can de Nochistlan (Nochistlan Dog), was a famous Mexican wrestler through 1970s to 1990s. His son also wrestles as Perro Aguayo, Jr. or El Hijo del Perro Aguayo ("The Son of Perro Aguayo"). He is one of the biggest box office attractions in lucha libre history and was the last major rival of El Santo. Often prone to blading, Aguayo has been described by American pundits as a cross between Terry Funk and Bruno Sammartino (for his willingness to brawl and overpower opponents). He was the first person ever crowned the WWF Light Heavyweight Champion, though pre-1997 title reigns are not included in WWE's official "canon" for that title. In 2012, Aguayo was inducted into the Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) Hall of Fame.
