1994

His older brother, known as Sansón ("Samson"), was born in 1994.

1996

Rogelio Reyes (born 1996), known by his stage name El Cuatrero, is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler currently signed to Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide but is inactive due to incarceration.

El Cuatrero was born in 1996, son of professional wrestler Carmelo Reyes González, better known under the ring name Cien Caras ("100 Faces").

2000

Best known for his work for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) based in Mexico City, he is the son of lucha libre legend Cien Caras and the nephew of Máscara Año 2000 and Universo 2000.

Cuatrero, his brother Sansón and their cousin Forastero form a trio known as Nueva Generación Dinamita ("New Generation Dynamite").

NGD are presented as the successors to Los Hermanos Dinamita, which was formed by Cien Caras, Máscara Año 2000 and Universo 2000.

His ring name is Spanish for "The Horsethief" or "The Cattle Rustler", reflected in the cowboy-inspired ring gear and mask he wears during shows.

El Cuatrero is one time CMLL World Middleweight Champion, one third of the Mexican National Trios Championship (with Sansón and Forastero) and the Occidente Trios Championship (with Sansón and Forastero).

At one point, he held four championships simultaneously, as he and Sansón also held the CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship as well.

His uncles Jesús (known as Máscara Año 2000) and Andrés Reyes González (Universo 2000) were also professional wrestlers.

Several of the Reyes sons followed their fathers into professional wrestling, including Forastero, Universo 2000 Jr.. and Máscara Año 2000 Jr. Initially, Carmelo Reyes did not want his sons to become professional wrestlers, wanting them to get an education instead.

He reluctantly agreed that they could learn Lucha Libre from their uncle Andrés, but only as a hobby, not a career.

During their training, Carmelo noticed how seriously both sons took the business and reluctantly agreed to let them become professional wrestlers.

There is a long tradition of wrestlers paying for the right to use a ring name in Mexican wrestling, including being allowed to portray a second or third-generation wrestler without being related to the originator of the ring character.

It has been confirmed that wrestlers Cien Caras Jr.. and El Hijo de Cien Caras are unrelated to the Reyes family, while it is unclear if Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 is actually a blood relative or if the relationship is purely fictional.

Carmelo Reyes later stated that he allowed the "Cien Caras" name to be rented by other wrestlers as his sons were very young and might not want to become professional wrestlers.

On March 4, 2023, CMLL wrestler Stephanie Vaquer filed a domestic violence criminal complaint against El Cuatrero, who had worked with her in the past for CMLL.

According to the complaint, Cuatrero forced onto her by choking her and throwing her against a wall.

On March 9, Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre released a statement stating that they "energetically condemn any form of violence against women and reiterate our commitment to promote a life free of violence and harassment in our staff and attendees to our arenas."

On March 10, after a show for AAA in the city of Aguascalientes, El Cuatrero was arrested on an arrest warrant in Mexico City and charged with attempted femicide and domestic violence.

A year later, El Cuatrero was teamed up with his uncle Máscara Año 2000 for the 2017 version of the Torneo Gran Alternativa, but like the 2016 tournament, El Cuatrero did not make it past the first round as the team lost to Esfinge and Atlantis.

2014

While the El Cuatrero name was first used in 2014, Sansón said that he and his brother made their in-ring debut around the year 2010 and worked locally in Lagos de Moreno while finishing school.

In an interview Cuatrero said that he wrestled briefly as "Máscara Universal", but his father did not like the name and suggested the name "El Cuatrero", Spanish for "The Cattle Rustler", instead.

The "El Cuatrero" character was inspired by the cowboy gimmick that his father and his uncles had used during their careers.

During their time working locally in Lagos de Moreno, the duo won their first Lucha de Apuestas, or bet match, when they defeated Los Centellas (I and II).

As a result, Los Centellas had to unmask per lucha libre traditions.

The Reyes brothers wrestled locally until early 2014, when they began working in Guadalajara for the local Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) promoters at the Arena Coliseo.

They trained at the CMLL wrestling school under Último Guerrero, Virus, and Franco Colombo.

The Reyes brothers made their CMLL debut on March 25, 2014, where they, along with Universo 2000, lost to the trio of Blue Panther, Sagrado, and Valiente.

While working in Guadalajara, El Cuatrero and Sansón competed in a tournament to determine the number one contenders for the local Occidente Tag Team Championship, but they were eliminated by the team of Flash and Flash II.

The brothers teamed up with Jocker for a tournament where the winners would be crowned the new Occidente Trios Champions.

While they won their way to the finale, they were defeated by Furia Roja, Mr. Trueno, and Ray Trueno.

2015

On November 11, 2015, Cuatrero and Sansón teamed up with their cousin Forastero and won the Occidente Trios Championship.

2016

On March 18, 2016, Nueva Generación Dinamita worked their first major show for CMLL, defeating Soberano Jr. and Oro Jr.. in the opening match of that year's Homenaje A Dos Leyendas supercard show.

CMLL decided to have both El Cuatrero and Sansón participate in their annual Torneo Gran Alternativa ("Great Alternativa Tournament"), where younger wrestlers team up with established veteran wrestlers for the tournament.

El Cuatrero was paired with Rey Bucanero, but the duo lost to Tritón and Místico in the first round.

2017

On January 5, 2017, El Cuatrero worked his first match in Mexico City, wrestling at the company's main venue, Arena Mexico.

He participated in the 2017 version of La Copa Junior but was eliminated from the tournament before the finals.

At that point, the Reyes brothers began being referred to as Nueva Generación Dinamita (Spanish for "New Generation Dynamites"; NGD)—a reference to their heritage.

2018

He won the mask of Ángel de Oro in the main event of CMLL's 2018 Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show on March 16, 2018.
