Lucha libre star Soberano Jr. appeared on CMLL’s Esto Es Lucha podcast to talk about a number of topics, including how he re-signed with the company in 2023 and had no intentions of going elsewhere.
Soberano Jr. said, “I wanted to take advantage because this a space for my company and I wanted to make it public so people don’t say I am just talking. I signed a three-year deal contract last year, but I had told my dad (Euforia) that I originally wanted it to be for five years or I would not re-sign. There have been certain issues since because my character has never been the best. I have always mentioned when I am happy or not, I don’t like to be quiet, and there have been times that I’ve been out of line and behaved badly; however, this place is where I feel happy and at peace. There had been chances to be at the top, but I had refused I always wanted to represent these letters (pointing at the CMLL Logo at the set). A lot of people might believe that being in the world of WWE is the pinnacle of the world of professional wrestling, but not for me. They can be actors and a lot of other things, but you can only find wrestlers here in CMLL, we only have wrestlers here. I have messed up a lot, but I am still here and I will stay here. I am 100% made in CMLL and I want to become that idol & star I always wanted to be, so thank you CMLL for always allowing me to be Soberano Jr. I have always said that CMLL is like my dad and Arena Mexico is like my mother, so I feel good at home. We keep going and expect more from Soberano Jr.”
