Abraham Arrieta González is a Mexican luchador, or professional wrestler currently working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) working under the ring name Mercurio (Spanish for Mercury), where he is the current CMLL World Mini-Estrella Champion, in his first reign. As Mercurio González works in CMLL's Mini-Estrella division, which does not necessarily mean that Mercurio is a dwarf as several wrestlers who are just shorter in stature work in the "Mini" division.[4] Mercurio's real name was not a matter of public record while masked, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans.[5]
