Matanza

Origin

Matanze Cueto is a monstrous, dangerous and violent fighter and the brother of Dario Cueto. Dario himself is the owner, boss and head of the Lucha Underground, an underground luchador fighting arena. The brothers have a complicated relationship, as Dario believes Matanza is possessed by some ancient Aztek god like being. In their youths the two boy had no father, only a mother who cared for them. However she was very cruel and abusive, prone to getting drunk and abusing her children. The two young boys, would often play and enjoy each others company, but they would fear the violent beatings received. After one particularly brutal beating at the hands of their mother on Dario, Matanza would snap, and attack his mother with a heavy bronze bull statuette, in defense of Dario. Their abusive mother dead, Dario and Matanza were now free.

In the years after, at some point, Matanza would seem too dangerous to be free. Dario would keep his now massive and powerful brother locked away, although, this arrangement seemed to not instill too much resentment in Matanza.
