Hechicero'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. He is billed as "Rey Hechicero" when making appearances outside CMLL, but there is no pretense that it is two different characters that he is playing. Hechicero is Spanish for "Wizard" and "Rey Hechicero" means "Wizard King".
