Metalik (born August 24, 1988) is a Mexican professional wrestler who performs on the independent circuit. He is best known for his time in WWE from 2016 to 2021 under the ring name Gran Metalik, and in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) from 2008 to 2016 under the ring name Máscara Dorada. His real name has not been officially documented, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico, where their private lives are concealed from the fans.

He made his debut in 2005, originally under the masked persona Plata II, before using the ring name Metalik. In 2008, he adopted the "Máscara Dorada" character, modeled after Mini-Estrella Mascarita Dorada, the first instance of a regular-sized wrestler being given a character based on a mini. At one point, Dorada was a quadruple CMLL champion, holding the Mexican National Trios Championship, CMLL World Trios Championship, CMLL World Super Lightweight Championship and CMLL World Welterweight Championship at the same time. He is a four-time CMLL World Welterweight Champion and won the Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increíbles with Atlantis back-to-back in 2010 and 2011. After a decade of working for CMLL in his native Mexico, he worked full-time for the Japanese promotion New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) from January 2015 until returning to CMLL a year later in February 2016.

In the summer of 2016, he competed in the American promotion WWE's Cruiserweight Classic tournament, after which he signed with WWE and was assigned to their brand 205 Live. He was then paired with masked wrestlers Kalisto and Lince Dorado as Lucha House Party; they were promoted to the Raw brand in November 2018, before moving to the SmackDown brand in October 2019. He is a one-time WWE 24/7 Champion. After requesting his release and departing WWE in November 2021, he began working on the independent circuit. He subsequently returned to NJPW and CMLL, also making appearances for Impact Wrestling, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Ring of Honor (ROH).

Professional wrestling career

Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (2005–2016)

Early years (2005–2008)

After training with Gran Cochisse and El Satánico, he made his professional wrestling debut on July 14, 2005. He initially used the ring persona Plata II, a copy of the original Plata that wrestled in the 1990s, before being repackaged as Metalik, a variation of the "metal-based" look he had used as Plata II. He worked mainly for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL)'s Guadalajara branch throughout 2008, winning the Occidente Welterweight Championship and the hair of Jeque in a Lucha de Apuestas. Metalik and Metálico entered a tournament for the vacant CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship on June 15, defeating Los Hombres del Camuflaje (Artillero and Súper Comando) in the first round, but lost to Los Nuevos Infernales (Euforia and Nosferatu) in the quarter-finals. On July 18, he was paired with Dos Caras Jr. in the Torneo Gran Alternativa ("Great Alternative Tournament"), where a newcomer teams with a veteran, making it to the finals in a loss to Dragón Rojo Jr. and Último Guerrero.

Máscara Dorada (2008–2016)

In late 2008, CMLL announced the creation of a "large" version of mini wrestler Mascarita Dorada, Máscara Dorada ("Golden Mask"). Minis were often traditionally patterned after existing wrestlers, but this mini was created prior to the "regular-sized" wrestler. Metalik redebuted as Dorada on November 7, teaming with La Máscara and La Sombra to defeat Jauria del Terror (Averno, Ephesto and Mephisto). On April 7, 2009, he outlasted nine other wrestlers in a torneo cibernetico to win the vacant CMLL World Super Lightweight Championship. For holding a title, Dorada entered the inaugural Universal Championship tournament on June 5, losing to Black Warrior in the first round. He made his first successful title defense against Virus on August 9. At the CMLL 76th Anniversary Show on September 18, he, El Hijo del Fantasma and El Sagrado defeated Poder Mexica (Dragón Rojo Jr., Misterioso Jr. and Sangre Azteca). On December 1, he unsuccessfully challenged Negro Casas for the CMLL World Welterweight Championship.

In November, he and La Sombra took part in the Super J Tag League, winning two out of their four matches in the group stage and finishing third in their block, missing the finals. They defeated Héctor Garza and Jushin Thunder Liger at Wrestle Kingdom V in Tokyo Dome on January 4, 2011. Dorada lost the CMLL World Welterweight Championship to Taguchi on January 22 during the NJPW and CMLL co-promoted Fantastica Mania 2011 tour. He returned in April as a rudo, primarily teaming with members of Chaos. At Wrestling Dontaku 2011 on May 3, he unsuccessfully challenged Liger for the CMLL World Middleweight Championship.

WWE (2016–2021)

Cruiserweight division (2016–2018)

On June 13, 2016, WWE announced Dorada, under the ring name Gran Metalik, as a participant in the upcoming Cruiserweight Classic tournament. He subsequently credited Finn Bálor (formerly Prince Devitt in NJPW) as being the reason he was invited to the tournament and revealed that he was only working the Cruiserweight Classic matches with WWE, still working full-time with CMLL beyond that. In the midst of the tournament, on July 15, it was reported that Metalik had signed a full-time contract with WWE. He defeated Alejandro Saez in the first round, Tajiri in the second round, and Akira Tozawa in the quarter-finals. On September 14, the last day of the tournament, Metalik defeated Zack Sabre Jr. to advance to the finals, where he lost to T.J. Perkins. He then began working on the Raw brand's cruiserweight division. On the September 19 episode of Raw, Metalik made his main roster debut in a loss to The Brian Kendrick in a fatal four-way match to determine the number one contender for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship at Clash of Champions, also involving Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann. On the February 14, 2017 episode of 205 Live, Metalik made his debut on the brand, defeating Drew Gulak. In September, Metalik competed in a number one contender's five-way elimination match for the title, but was the second person eliminated by Alexander.

Lucha House Party (2018–2021)

In early 2018, Metalik formed a regular team with 205 Live's fellow masked luchadors Kalisto and Lince Dorado, later dubbed the Lucha House Party. As part of their gimmick, they started to carry brightly colored noisemakers and vuvuzela horns to use for celebrating after a victory. They also carried a brightly colored Piñata donkey with them to the ring, referred to as "Penelope". In their first match as a trio, they defeated Ariya Daivari, TJP and Tony Nese on the January 23 episode of 205 Live. At Royal Rumble on January 28, Lucha House Party defeated Gulak, Gentleman Jack Gallagher and TJP.

Following the event, Lucha House Party entered a storyline with The Revival (Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson), who objected to Lucha House Party being allowed to compete as a tag team when there was three of them. In subsequent weeks, they defeated The Revival in various three-on-two or three-on-one matches, billed as "Lucha House Rules" matches. On the February 4, 2019 episode of Raw, The Revival defeated Lucha House Party as part of a fatal four-way match to earn a future match for the WWE Raw Tag Team Championship.

On the July 24 episode of SmackDown, Metalik won a fatal four-way match for an Intercontinental Championship match against AJ Styles, but failed to win the title the following week.

In October, Metalik and Dorado were drafted to the Raw brand in the 2020 Draft, splitting them from Kalisto, who remained on the SmackDown brand. On the December 30 episode of NXT, Metalik and Dorado made a surprise appearance, confronting NXT Cruiserweight Champion Santos Escobar before defeating Legado del Fantasma (Joaquin Wilde and Raul Mendoza).

His last AEW/ROH appearance was on the July 4, 2024 episode, where he and Komander lost to Undisputed Kingdom (Matt Taven and Mike Bennett) in a ROH World Tag Team Championship Proving Ground match.

Return to CMLL (2023)

On June 14, 2023, it was announced that Metalik would return to CMLL on July 14 at Atlantis' 40th Anniversary Show, where he teamed with Máscara Dorada 2.0 and Titán to defeat Bárbaro Cavernario, Templario and Virus. On July 21, Metalik participated in the semi-final torneo cibernetico of the Leyenda de Plata, where he eliminated Titán before being the last wrestler eliminated by Romero. Metalik continued to appear for CMLL, but failed to reach a deal with the promotion and lost to Titán in his final date on July 28.

Professional wrestling style

As Metalik or Máscara Dorada, he generally portrays a face, the professional wrestling term for the protagonists of the storylines. He is known for performing a high-risk, high-flying version of lucha libre, exemplified by his frequent use of dives out of the wrestling ring, including the Brillo Metalik, a somersault suicide senton where he leaps through the top rope and flips onto an opponent on the floor. During his time in Mexico, he used a variation of the dive known as the Brillo Dorada, where he would springboard off the second rope and jump over the top onto an opponent on the floor. His finishing move is a Samoan driver (referred to as the Metalik Driver in WWE and previously the Dorada Screwdriver), where he lifts an opponent up on his shoulders before slamming them down to the ground.

Other media

As Gran Metalik, he made his video game debut as a playable character in WWE 2K18. He has since appeared in WWE SuperCard, WWE 2K19, WWE 2K20, WWE 2K Battlegrounds, and WWE 2K22.

Personal life

He was born on August 24, 1988, in Guadalajara, Jalisco. During a 2016 interview with Lucha World, he revealed that he was the father of two young girls. His immediate family still resides in Guadalajara. He has relatives living in Los Angeles, while Dorada himself lived in Mexico City. He welcomed his third daughter on November 4, 2018.
