Astral is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, for best known for his time working for the Mexico City-based professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). Initially he worked in CMLL's Mini-Estrella division, but in January 2017 it was announced that he was being moved into the "regular" division. Astral'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.[4] Astral is one of a limited number of Mini-Estrellas whose ring character is not based on the character of a wrestler from the regular division.[3] He is a former CMLL World Mini-Estrella Champion.
