As a high-flyer luchador, El Fuerte is specialized in aerial techniques, flashy strikes and fluid holds. He is incredibly agile, and puts such trait at good use in battle with dashes, jumps, throws, feints and a lot of acrobatic movements and techniques that are staples of the discipline, with the addition of his own creations. 
His wrestling instructor was the legendary Meteorito Jr., who also trained El Stingray. Although El Fuerte's accomplishments are largely unknown, he could establish himself as a rival to world-class fighters like Zangief, E. Honda, Abel, Blanka and T. Hawk, with the latter being his rival from a long time.
