El Vampiro is one of the most electrifing performers in the wrestling world today. He started out his career as a hockey player, being drafted by Kingston in the Ontario Hockey League. His love of music, however, drifted him to California. Enevitably, he went down to Mexico in the early 90's to soon become, El Vampiro Canadienese (Canadian Vampire). Quickly, he became, argueably, the most popular wrestler in Mexico. In 1998, he got picked up by WCW, but for over a year, he was rarely used. In August of 1999, Vampiro received a muchly overdue push from WCW. Teaming up with the Insane Clown Posse and Raven, they formed the Deadpool. Soon after, Raven left to join the ECW. The Deadpool soon found themselves at odds against the Filthy Animals.
Anything new for El Vampiro? Vamp to WWF? Well, maybe. Rumor has it that he's given his 90 day notice to WCW, but I think they're just holding him back for a big rivalry. (Against Benoit? Lets cross our fingers) Other

Why
did I make a page dedicated to El Vampiro? Well,
I first saw him in the summer of 1998 when he devastated Brad Armstrong.
I was in total awe watching him fight.
