Oro Jr. is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler currently working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) portraying a tecnico ("Good guy") wrestling character. Oro Jr.'s real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans. It has been revealed that he is a third generation wrestler, part of the Hernández family that also included his uncle Oro (whom his ring name is taken from) as well as his father Plata and uncles Oro II, Plata II, Bronce II, El Calavera Jr. and Golden.
Personal life
The man known under the ring name Oro Jr. is a third generation wrestler; he is the son of Ismael Hernández Solís who worked under the ring name Plata ("Silver") and the nephew of Jesús Javier Hernández Solís who worked as a professional wrestler under the name Oro ("Gold") until his death following a professional wrestling match. His extended family are all connected with wrestling, including uncles Oro II, Plata II, Bronce II, El Calavera Jr., and Golden, grandfather Calavera I and great uncle Calavera II. Oro Jr. never knew his uncle as he was too young when Oro died in 1993 but heard so much about him from his father and uncles that he was inspired by him to become a professional wrestler, adopting the name "Oro Jr." in his honor instead of "Plata Jr." after his father's ring name.
