Fénix (born December 30, 1990) is a Mexican luchador enmascarado (masked professional wrestler) currently working for various Mexican wrestling promotions such as Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide and Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre, the U.S. based IMPACT Wrestling and is a regular on the American and Mexican independent circuits, most notably Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG), where he is a former one-time PWG World Tag Team Champion.
After originally starting his career on the Mexican independent circuit in 2007, Fénix signed with AAA in January 2011, where he became the inaugural AAA Fusión Champion in March 2013. Through AAA, Fénix also began working for Lucha Underground in late 2014, becoming the inaugural Gift of the Gods Champion in April 2015 and winning the promotion's top title, the Lucha Underground Championship, the following November. Fénix has also held the Lucha Underground Trios Championship, making him the first wrestler in Lucha Underground to have won all three championships. He has also wrestled in Japan for Pro-Wrestling NOAH and Pro Wrestling Wave. After leaving AAA in September 2016, Fénix changed his ring name first to Rey Fénix, then Fénix el Rey and finally to its current form Rey Fenix (stylized in all capital letters). His ring names are Spanish for "Phoenix", "King Phoenix" and "Phoenix the King". When working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre he is billed as King Phoenix.
