Salvador Guerrero IV[4][5] (born October 20, 1970)[4] also known as Chavo Guerrero and Chavo Guerrero, Jr.[6], is a third generation American professional wrestler and member of the famed Guerrero wrestling family, currently signed to World Wrestling Entertainment wrestling on its Raw brand.[1]
He is the grandson of Gory Guerrero; the son of Chavo Guerrero, Sr.; the nephew of Eddie Guerrero, Hector Guerrero, Mando Guerrero, and Enrique Llanes; and the cousin of Javier Llanes and Hector Mejia. His grandfather, Gory Guerrero, was one of the most famous wrestlers in Mexican history.[1] His father, Chavo Guerrero, Sr., was also a legendary wrestler in Mexico and worked in WWE as a part-time wrestler and full-time manager. One of his uncles, Eddie Guerrero, was one of WWE's biggest stars. Eddie performed for the SmackDown! brand,[1] as did Chavo Sr. (aka Chavo Classic). Chavo Jr. has two other uncles (Mando and Hector) who have had successful careers in the business.
He is recognized by WWE as a four-time Cruiserweight Championship, a two-time WWE Tag Team Championship with Eddie Guerrero, and a one-time world champion, having held the ECW Championship in 2008.[7]Chavo Jr. started wrestling in 1994, and quickly joined World Championship Wrestling (WCW). While in WCW, Chavo shared the limelight with his uncle Eddie, becoming a reluctant ally of his uncle's. As part of their angle, Eddie would continually try to make Chavo adopt Eddie's cheating tactics, but Chavo often refused to do so. Eventually, Chavo's treatment at the hands of Eddie would drive him "crazy" and Chavo adopted the gimmick of a psycho fixated with a hobby horse he dubbed "Pepé." This led to a famous feud with Norman Smiley in which Pepé was thrown by Smiley into a wood chipper. Another result of his insanity, was his inability to join Eddie's Latino World Order stable, which was a take-off of the nWo. The stable included nearly every Latino wrestler in WCW except Chavo. He was also a member of the comedy stable the Misfits In Action, billed as Lieutenant Loco.
