Pedro Ortiz Villanueva (born July 29, 1962) is a Mexican professional wrestler, or luchador, and wrestling trainer who is best known under the ring name Pirata Morgan. Ortiz made his professional wrestling debut in 1979 and has in the last 20 years worked for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) and is active on the Mexican Independent circuit, having left AAA in early 2009 after working for the company for over 10 years. Ortiz's ring name comes from the name of Captain Henry Morgan, a 16th-century Pirate noted for his cruelty.

Contents

Pirata Morgan has been a member of the Trio Los Infernales from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s and as part of that group he was one third of the first Mexican National Trios Champions and CMLL World Trios Champions. He was also the founder of the group Los Bucaneros (the Buccaneers), teaming with other family members who all used a "Pirate" Ring persona. In 1981 Ortiz suffered an injury during a match where he lost his right eye and has wrestled wearing an eyepatch ever since.

Professional wrestling career

Pedro Ortiz Villanueva made his professional wrestling debut on February 7, 1979, using the ring name "Siki Ozama II", teaming with Siki Ozama I. Over the next year Ortiz wrestled as "Pedro Ortiz" and later on "Ramón Morgan" as he gained in-ring experience. In December 1981, Ortiz worked a match against El Jalisco at Arena Colosseum Tapatía Perl, Ortiz won the first fall of the match, El Jalisco won the second fall before Ortiz suffered a terrible injury. El Jalisco was on the floor outside the ring and Ortiz leapt over the top rope, hoping to hit El Jalisco, but his opponent was out of position and Ortiz hit the ground face first. The impact of the fall burst Ortiz' right eye, spraying a mist of blood over the floor and the front row. Initially it was feared that Ortiz would not survive but after medical attention it became clear that he would survive, but had to have the remnants of his right eye surgically removed. [1] When Ortiz returned to the ring he had to wear an eyepatch over his missing eye and used this as the impetus to change his ring persona, Pedro Ortiz became Pirata Morgan, a pirate ring persona named after 16th-century pirate Henry Morgan. [1] On August 7, 1983, Pirata Morgan won his first singles title when he defeated Halcón Ortiz to win the Mexican National Heavyweight Championship. [2] Morgan would hold and defend the title for 154 days until he lost to Rayo de Jalisco Jr. on January 8, 1984. [2]

Los Infernales

In 1985 Pirata Morgan was chosen to replace Espectro Jr. as a member of Los Infernales together with Satánico and MS-1. [3] The trio of MS-1, Satánico, and Pirata Morgan quickly became one of the most successful Trios of its time. [4] In March 1985 Los Infernales participated in a tournament to determine the first ever Mexican National Trios Champions; Los Infernales defeated the two teams in the preliminary rounds to qualify for the finals. [5] In the finals Los Infernales defeated Los Brazos ("the Arms"; El Brazo, Brazo de Oro, and Brazo de Plata) to become the first ever Mexican National Trios champions. [6] That match was just the first match in a long running Inferlanes/Brazos storyline that would run off and on over the next decade. Los Brazos won the initial feud when they defeated Los Infernales for the Mexican Nations Trios Title on December 8, 1985. [7]

In October, 1986 Pirata Morgan left the group to form a new group called "Los Bucaneros", teaming with his brother, Hombre Bala (who also worked as Rey Pirata), his nephew Rey Bucanero and a Mini called Piratita Morgan. [1] Los Bucaneros feuded with Los Infernales, who had added Masakre to their ranks, the feud saw Pirata Morgan defeat MS-1 in a Luchas de Apuestas , hair vs. hair match that saw MS-1 shaved bald after the match. [1] On August 30, 1987, Pirata Morgan teamed up with Hombre Bala and Jerry Estrada to win the Mexican National Trios Championship from Kiss, Ringo Mendoza and Rayo de Jalisco Jr. The Trio held the title for 154 days before losing to Los Destructores (the Destroyers; Emilio Charles Jr., Tony Arce and Vulcano). [6] On October 21, 1989, Pirata Morgan defeated former teammate Satánico to win the NWA World Light Heavyweight Champion, holding it for 48 days before losing it to Fabuloso Blondy [8]

In the early 1990s, Los Infernales reformed, reuniting MS-1, Satánico and Pirata Morgan. The trio participated in the tournament to crown the first ever CMLL World Trios Champions. Los Infernales won the tournament, defeating Los Brazo in the finals to become the first ever CMLL World Trios Champions on November 22, 1991. [7] Former Infernales member Masakre had formed his own group, Los Intocables (the Untouchables) consisting of himself, Pierroth Jr. and Jaque Mate (Checkmate). Los Infernales regained the titles when they defeated Los Intocables for the championship on September 20, 1992. [7] After the storyline with Los Intocables ended, Los Infernales renewed their rivalry with Los Brazo, facing off in several main events that drew sell-out crowds all over Mexico. On April 6, 1993, Los Brazo won the CMLL World Trios Title from Los Infernales; a victory that only helped increase the intensity of the rivalry. The Infernales / Brazos feud did not so much with a conclusive victory for either side but rather slowed down and then stopped when Los Infernales split up in the mid-1990s. [1]

Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (19952009)

Pirata Morgan left CMLL in the mid-1990s to join Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), working both as a wrestler and as a wrestling trainer. On December 12, 1997, Morgan won the IWC World Heavyweight Championship from Máscara Sagrada. [9] [Note 1] Pirata Morgan successfully defended the title against Vampiro twice, before losing the belt to La Parka in June 1998. [9] In 1999 Morgan left AAA and began working for International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) where he won the IWRG Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship from Pierroth Jr. on August 1, 1999. [10] By the end of 1999 Pirata Morgan returned to AAA and brought the IWRG Heavyweight title with him; IWRG published a fictitious title change in Japan to explain why Super Parka suddenly held the IWRG Heavyweight title. [1] [10] As Pirata Morgan had the physical belt in his possession he began defending it in AAA, billed as the "IWC World Heavyweight Championship", pretending that it was the same belt that he had held in 1997–1998. Morgan lost the championship to Héctor Garza but quickly regained it in mid-2000, before dropping it for the final time in August 2000. [1] Only days after losing the IWC World Heavyweight Title Morgan teamed up with El Texano to defeat Héctor Garza and Perro Aguayo Jr. for the Mexican National Tag Team Championship. [11] Morgan and Texano would hold the title for 429 days successfully defending it against such teams as Sangre Chicana and La Parka Jr. (twice), Heavy Metal and Perro Aguayo Jr. (twice) and Dos Caras and Dos Caras Jr. (once) before losing the belts to La Parka Jr. and Máscara Sagrada. [11] On December 27, 2003, Pirata Morgan defeated El Zorro to win the Mexican National Heavyweight Championship, almost 20 years after having held it last. [12] Morgan would only hold the title for 39 days before El Zorro regained it. [13] In subsequent years Pirata Morgan has worked more and more with young, low card wrestlers to help improve their skills and less as a serious championship contender.

In 2007 Pirata Morgan introduced a group called Los Piratas to AAA, a group that consisted of Pirata Morgan Jr., Barba Roja, and Drake Morgan. Pirata Morgan would often team with the group and was billed as their father, although only Pirata Morgan Jr. was the only blood relation. In late 2007, Drake Morgan was replaced by El Hijo de Pirata Morgan, legitimately the son of Pirata Morgan.

International Wrestling Revolution Group (2009present)

In late 2008 Barba Roja and El Hijo de Pirata Morgan were both cut from AAA. In early 2009 Pirata Morgan left AAA, citing his dissatisfaction with the direction of the company in recent years. [1] Subsequently, Pirata Morgan has worked on the Mexican Independent circuit as well as making appearances for IWRG. On September 30, 2011, Pirata Morgan lost his hair to Hijo de Pirata Morgan in a twelve-man steel cage match. [14] On February 7, 2013, Pirata Morgan, El Hijo de Pirata Morgan and Pirata Morgan Jr. defeated Los Oficiales (Oficial 911, Oficial AK-47 and Oficial Fierro) to win the Distrito Federal Trios Championship. [15] Pirata Morgan, along with Cien Caras Jr., Máscara Año 2000 Jr. and Rayo de Jalisco Jr. competed in a four-way steel cage match billed by IWRG as Prison Fatal ("Deadly Prison"). During the match Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 interfered, which caused Pirata Morgan Jr. to enter the match as well to escalate the rivalry between Los Piratas and Los Capos Junior . The match ended with Pirata Morgan being the last man in the cage and thus had his hair shaved off. [16] On March 24, 2013, Los Piratas won the vacant IWRG Intercontinental Trios Championship, winning a four-way match against Los Oficiales (911, AK-47, and Fierro), La Familia de Tijuana (Mosco X-Fly, Super Nova, and Eterno) and Comandos Elite (Rayan, and Factor) and Máscara Año 2000 Jr. They lost the title to Los Poderosos (Hombre Sin Miedo, Kendor Jr., and Sobredosis) on November 4, only to regain it a week later. On August 9, 2015, Los Piratas lost the IWRG Intercontinental Trios Championship to La Dinastía de la Muerte (Negro Navarro, Trauma I and Trauma II). [17] During the show Pirata Morgan introduced the newest member of Los Piratas, Barbe Roja Jr. ("Red Beard Jr."). [17]

Family

Pedro Ortiz is part of an extended wrestling family that includes his brothers who wrestle as Verdungo and Hombre Bala and sister La Marqueza. Ortiz also has at least one brother who is not a professional wrestler. Ortiz has three children who are also professional wrestlers; two sons wrestle as Pirata Morgan Jr. and El Hijo de Pirata Morgan, and his daughter wrestles as Perla Negra. In storyline terms wrestlers Drake Morgan, Barba Roja, and Hijo de Pirata Morgan have all been billed as sons of Pirata Morgan but are not actually related by blood. Several of his nephews and a niece are also professional wrestlers, using the ring names Rey Bucanero, India Sioux, Hombre Bala Jr., and Corsario. [1]

As the major heavyweight working for the Universal Wrestling Association promotion, he became one of Lucha Libre's biggest attractions during the 1980s especially through his high-profile matches against non-Mexicans that sold out numerous shows and led to the UWA using the same formula of "Canek vs. the foreigner" for over a decade. He made his debut in 1972 as "El Universitario" at the age of 18 and would later work under the name "Principe Azul". In 1973 he adopted the ring name El Canek, a name inspired by the Mayan Indian leader Jacinto Canek, that he has used ever since.

The Mexican National Trios Championship is a three-man tag team professional wrestling championship, sanctioned by the "Comisión de Box y Lucha Libre Mexico D.F.", which oversees all matches where the championship is defended. Since its creation in 1985 the championship has been promoted by several major Mexican wrestling promotions, Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL), Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) and is currently promoted by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre. The change from promotion to promotion was approved by the commission if the trios champions left one promotion to work for the other. As it is a professional wrestling championship, it is not won or lost competitively, but instead by the decision of the bookers of a wrestling promotion. The title is awarded to a team after the team "wins" a match to maintain the illusion that professional wrestling is a competitive sport. All title matches take place under two-out-of-three falls rules.
