 The Ruvinskis family lived in poverty in Argentina, forcing a very young Wolf Ruvinskis to begin wrestling professionally as a way to help provide for his family.Ruvinskis quickly became a proficient "Rudo" (bad guy) in wrestling, which led him to be booked on tours of South America and later on both Mexico and the United States.When he came to Mexico he was originally slated for a short tour of the country before moving on, but he fell in love with the country and settled there soon after.
