Dorado’s first run the company started in 2016, when he was signed to WWE as part of the relaunched cruiserweight division. He is best known for being part of the Lucha House Party group with Kalisto and Gran Metalik. After being sent to the Raw brand as part of the 2020 WWE Draft, Dorado and Metalik were released from WWE in October of 2021. Dorado’s last match was a loss to Cedric Alexander during a Main Event taping a month prior.

Since his release from WWE, Dorado has competed in MLW, holding the MLW Middleweight Championship at one point. He also wrestled against Trey Miguel at Impact Wrestling’s Sacrifice event in 2023, coming up short.

Later in 2023, Dorado revealed he had been coaching at the WWE Performance Center.
