As Universo 2000 Jr. is an "enmascarado" or "masked wrestler" his birth name is not a matter of public record, a tradition in "lucha libre" where the personal lives of masked wrestlers are kept out of the spot light. His father, Andrés, and his uncles Carmelo (known as Cien  Caras) and Jesús (Máscara Año 2000) were established professional wrestling headliners in Mexico. Several Reyes family members became professional wrestlers including cousins Forastero, El Cuatrero and Sansón, and El Hijo de Máscara Año 2000. Despite using the names El Hijo de Cien Caras ("The Son of Cien Caras") and Cien Caras, Jr. neither wrestler were actually related to the Reyes family but instead paid for the rights to use the ring characters and masks. The "Mini-Estrella" Pequeño Universo 2000 is also not a Reyes family member but a "Mini" who was allowed to use the name and mask some  years ago when Universo 2000 still wrestled in CMLL and continues to use the character to this date.
