Homicide (wrestler) - Personal Life

Personal Life

Erazo is a member of the large Puerto Rican Diaspora in New York, colloquially known as "Nuyoricans". He initially wrestled as The Latin Terror, a reference to his Latin American ethnicity. However, Erazo grew bored with the gimmick in 1995 and decided to create a new character based on his own past. He had been a gang member as a youth, and he incorporated this into the Homicide character, taking his ring name from an episode of America's Most Wanted where a man was arrested for the crime of homicide. Erazo has subsequently stated that he represents both "New York and Puerto Rico", frequently implementing the flag of Puerto Rico into his wrestling apparel and often carrying it unmodified to the ring. Outside of professional wrestling, Erazo got married in 1994 and is the father of two children, a son and a daughter.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    I know no personal cause to spurn at him,
    But for the general: he would be crowned.
    How that might change his nature, there’s the question.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The real sin against life is to abuse and destroy beauty, even one’s own—even more, one’s own, for that has been put in our care and we are responsible for its well-being.
    Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)
