About Cruz Diablo

While Cruz Diablo is best known for his stint in early 1950s Venezuela on Televicentro, he was born and raised in Cuba.

After wrestling briefly under Black Diablo, he became Cruz Diablo at the Palacio de los Deportes for the rest of his career. His travels would take him all over the Caribbean, where he crafted his rudo/heel persona.

In early 1959, he wrestled in a series of matches unmasked at Coliseo de la Ciudad Deportiva & Havana Madrid in Cuba under his birth name, Serafin Gonzalez. But, unfortunately, the Cuban revolution would end his and his fellow wrestling brothers' careers.
