His grandfather is Ramón Ibarra Banda who has worked both masked and unmasked as "Volador" and "Super Parka". it has not been revealed if Ibarra is his maternal or paternal grandfather, but it has been revealed that he is the nephew of Ramón Ibarra Rivera who has wrestled on several continents as "Volador Jr". He is the great nephew of wrestler Adolfo Tapia Ibarra, better known as "La Parka" and the nephew of Tapia's son who wrestles as El Hijo de L.A. Park. He is the great nephew of Ramón Ibarra's brothers who also wrestled; Johnny Ibarra Banda, who worked as Jhony Ibarra, Alejandro Tapia Ibarra, better known as King Balam and an uncle who wrestled as "Desalmado".

Professional wrestling career
Flyer began training for a professional wrestling career at the age of 15, training at the local Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) wrestling school in his native Guadalajara, initially training under Arturo Beristain but later also train with his uncle Volador Jr. as well as Virus. While training at the school he would occasionally fill-in for a match when a wrestler did not show and thus made his in-ring debut in 2009. While he trained in the CMLL school he was not signed with the company so when he began to wrestle on a regular basis he worked primarily on the independent circuit around Guadalajara. One of his early high-profile appearances was on November 19, 2011, where he teamed up with Aeroboy to work the Desastre Total Ultraviolento (DTU) 2nd Anniversary Show, competing in a tag team tournament. The duo defeated the teams of Ciclope and Slayer, and Dement Xtreme and Lancelot in the semi-finals and then go on to defeat the teams of Eterno and Pequeno Cobra, and Extreme Boy and Paranoiko to win the tournament. In late 2012 Flyer participated in CMLL's annual Bodybuilding contest, winning the beginners category. On January 21, 2014, Flyer won the Copa del Sol de Hidalgo as part of the Arena Aficion 62nd Anniversary celebration, defeating Maldito Jr. in the finals.
