José García trained under Huichol, Tapatio III, Super Astro and El Texano before making his professional wrestling debut in 1990. He started out working under the ring name "Águila Negra" ("The Black Eagle"), an "enmascarado" character. His run as a masked wrestler ended on June 14, 1992 when he lost a "Lucha de Apuesta", or bet match, to Magnum. In 1994 he worked a couple of tours for International Wrestling Association of Japan.
