El Hijo del Villano III (Spanish: "The Son of Villano III; born November 26, 1999) is a Mexican luchador enmascarado (or masked professional wrestler). He is currently working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), where he is one-half of the current CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Champions (with Villano III Jr.). He portrays a rudo ("bad guy") wrestling character. A third-generation wrestler, he is the son of Villano III and La Infernal, and grandson of Ray Mendoza. His older brother is also a enmascarado, known as Villano III Jr., his uncles include luchadors Villano I, Villano II, Villano IV, Villano V and he is the cousin of Villano V Jr. and Rokambole Jr.

In CMLL, he has often been programmed opposite Atlantis Jr., alluding to the long running storyline feud between their fathers Villano III and Atlantis. El Hijo del Villano III'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.
