Alfonso Peña (born June 10, 1969) is a Mexican luchador , or professional wrestler best known under the ring name Histeria currently working for Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. He also worked for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) under the ring name Morphosis. Peña is best known for the 14 years he worked for AAA, until leaving in 2009. He is the second person to wrestle as "Histeria", taking over from the previous wrestler who became known as Super Crazy. There was later a third Histeria wrestling for AAA. Until December 25, 2016, Peña's real name was not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers, but on December 25 he lost a Lucha de Apuestas match to Carístico, which forced him to unmask and reveal his real name per lucha libre traditions.
Professional wrestling career
Alfonso Peña made his professional wrestling debut in 1985 and for the next 10 years worked for various promoters on the Mexican independent circuit, without making much of a name for himself. In 1995 he began working for Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) under the ring name Quarterback II, a football ring character complete with a mask that looked like a football helmet. Initially he was teamed up with Quarterback I, but the team never made much headway.
Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (1997-2010)
In 1997 the original Histeria, now known as Super Crazy, left AAA to work for Promo Azteca. AAA owner Antonio Peña decided to reuse the character without publicly acknowledging that a different wrestler was playing the role. Quarterback II was given the outfit and name and from that moment forward became the "official" Histeria and made part of Los Vipers. On August 23, 1998, Histeria, Psicosis, Maniaco and Mosco de la Merced teamed up to participate in a tournament for the vacant Mexican National Atómicos Championship, representing Los Vipers. Los Vipers won the tournament by defeating Los Payasos (Coco Amarillo, Coco Azul, Coco Negro and Coco Rojo) in the finals to win the Atómicos title. Over the following months Los Vipers began a storyline feud with another group called Los Vatos Locos, which at the time consisted of Charly Manson, May Flowers, Nygma and Picudo. On February 14, 1999 Los Vatos Locos defeated Los Vipers to win the Atómicos championship. Los Vipers won the title a second time on September 17, 1999, when they defeated Los Junior Atómicos (Blue Demon, Jr., La Parka, Jr., Mascara Sagrada, Jr. and Perro Aguayo, Jr.). Los Vatos Locos managed to end Los Vipers second reign only three months later as they defeated Psicosis and partners on the undercard of the 1999 Guerra de Titanes show. Los Vipers regained the Atómicos title on April 15, 2000, effectively ending the storyline with Los Vatos Locos. Los Vipers reigned as Atómicos champions for over a year, until they were surprisingly upset by a little known group called Los Regio Guapos (Hator, Monje Negro, Jr., Potro, Jr. and Tigre Universitario) on August 19, 2001. Los Regio Guapos only held the title for under two months before Los Vipers regained the title and began their fourth reign with the Atómicos title. Their fourth reign also turned out to be the last reign for Los Vipers, ending on November 23, 2001, as a new version of Los Vatos Locos (Espiritu, Nygma, Picudo and Silver Cat) defeated them in one of the featured matches of the 2001 Guerra de Titanes.
