Dralístico

Carlos Muñoz González (born 1991), better known by his ring name Dralístico, is a Mexican second-generation professional wrestler. He is signed to American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he is a member of La Facción Ingobernable. He is best known for his 11-year tenure with Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), originally working under the ring name Dragon Lee, before he was given the ring name and mask of Místico, after the original Místico had left CMLL to work for WWE.

In CMLL, he is a one-time CMLL World Tag Team Champion, a two-time CMLL World Trios Champion, as well as a one-time holder of the CMLL World Welterweight Championship and the Azteca Championship. Additionally, he has also won the 2012 Torneo Sangre Nueva tournament (as Dragon Lee), and the 2016 CMLL Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increibles tournament (alongside Mephisto).

His father, Arturo Muñoz, is also a professional wrestler, best known by the ring names Poder Mexica, Toro Blanco and Comandante Pierroth, and is working under the ring name La Bestia del Ring. Místico's older brother is better known under the ring name Rush. Místico and Rush's younger brother debuted in November 2013, the latter taking over the Dragon Lee ring name. He has also wrestled in Japan and Europe through CMLL's partnerships with other promotions such as Revolution Pro Wrestling and New Japan Pro-Wrestling, as well as on the Mexican independent circuit.

Muñoz was originally trained in professional wrestling by his father Arturo Muñoz, brother Rush and uncles Franco Columbo, Pit Bull I and Pit Bull II in his native Tala, Jalisco. After two years of training, he moved to Mexico City to join Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), where he underwent further training under Arturo Beristain and Tony Salazar. Given a mask and the ring name Dragon Lee, he made his public debut on November 25, 2010, when he took part in CMLL's annual bodybuilding contest and won the beginner's category. Dragon Lee made his wrestling debut as a técnico in a six-man tag team match on January 4, 2011, where he, Fabian el Gitano and Starman lost to Arkangel de la Muerte, Boby Zavala and Skándalo.

Lee started his career as a member of the informal Generación 2011 group, which also included fellow debutants Zavala, Enrique Vera Jr., Hombre Bala Jr., Magnus, Signo Jr. and Super Halcón Jr. During the following months, Lee wrestled mainly in six-man tag team matches with and against his stablemates, before being involved in first major program the following April, as he participated the Forjando un Ídolo ("Forging an Idol") tournament. With one win and two losses, Dragon Lee finished fourth in his block and failed to advance in the tournament. On April 17, he picked up the biggest win of his young career by winning a ten-man torneo cibernetico. On May 31, Dragon Lee entered a tournament to determine the new CMLL World Super Lightweight Champion, but was eliminated in the semifinal torneo cibernetico. Lee unsuccessfully challenged for the title against the winner of the tournament, Virus, on November 28. On March 6, 2012, Dragon Lee entered the Torneo Sangre Nueva ("New Blood Tournament"), winning an eight-man torneo cibernetico semifinal match. On March 20, Lee defeated Raziel in the finals to win the tournament. On March 30, Dragon Lee entered the 2012 Torneo Gran Alternativa, teaming with his brother Rush. After victories over the teams of Boby Zavala and Rey Bucanero, and Niebla Roja and Último Guerrero, the brothers were eliminated in the semifinals by Euforia and El Terrible, who won the tournament. Lee's run of tournaments continued the following month with the En Busca de un Ídolo tournament/reality television show, where he finished third and narrowly missed advancing to the finals.

On June 20, 2012, CMLL held a press conference, during which wrestling priest Fray Tormenta announced that since Dragon Lee had impressed him during the En Busca de un Ídolo tournament, he wanted him to take over the role of Místico, his storyline protégé. Lee immediately accepted Tormenta's offer and received his new mask to officially become the second incarnation of Místico, taking over the highly successful role following the character's original performer, who had signed with WWE in January 2011. Lee wrestled his final match under his old persona on June 24, when he, Diamante and Tritón defeated Cancerbero, Niebla Roja and Raziel via disqualification. Afterwards, Roja attacked Lee, removed his mask and tore it to pieces. For the next six weeks, Místico went on a publicity tour to promote the upcoming "new era" of Místico.

The new Místico made his in-ring debut on August 3 on the Super Viernes show in a six-man tag team match, where he, Ángel de Oro and Valiente defeated Ephesto, Euforia and Mephisto. The debut match caused a spike in CMLL attendance, drawing 12,600 fans to Arena México. Místico scored his first direct win the following day, teaming with Atlantis and Titán to defeat Dragón Rojo Jr., Negro Casas and former CMLL World Heavyweight Champion Último Guerrero, whom he pinned. On September 30, Místico won his first title, defeating Último Guerrero and Atlantis in a three-way match for the Lucha Libre Azteca (LLA) Azteca Championship. Later that day, Místico was sidelined with an injury after failing to properly execute a shooting star press, landing on his shoulder. He returned to the ring on January 8, 2013, teaming with Máscara Dorada and Titán to defeat Los Hijos del Averno (Averno, Ephesto and Mephisto). The following day, during a match where he, Atlantis and Marco Corleone faced Euforia, Guerrero and Volador Jr., Místico suffered yet another shoulder injury, following a failed springboard dive, and was rushed to an emergency room. Místico returned to the ring on February 18, teaming with La Máscara and La Sombra to defeat Los Invasores (Kraneo, Psicosis and Volador Jr.). On April 19, Místico took part in a ten-man torneo cibernetico to determine the contenders for the vacant Mexican National Welterweight Championship. He and Averno survived the match, setting up a title match between the two, which Místico lost on April 26 at the Arena Mexico 57th Anniversary Show.

In May, Místico came together with Máscara Dorada and Valiente to form the Los Estetas del Aire ("The Air Aesthetics") stable, with the three debuting identical masks containing elements of each wrestler's own mask. On May 12, Místico was stripped of the LLA Azteca Championship after his title defense against La Sombra and Volador Jr. in a triple threat match ended in a thirty-minute time limit draw. On June 9, Los Estetas del Aire entered a tournament for the vacant CMLL World Trios Championship, first defeating Los Invasores (Mr. Águila, Psicosis and Volador Jr.) in the quarterfinals and then TRT (Rey Bucanero, El Terrible and Tiger) in the semifinals to advance to the following week's tournament finals, where they defeated Los Guerreros Laguneros (Euforia, Niebla Roja and Último Guerrero) to become the new CMLL World Trios Champions. On September 13 at CMLL's 80th Anniversary Show, Los Estetas del Aire successfully defended the CMLL World Trios Championship against Los Revolucionarios del Terror (Dragón Rojo Jr., Pólvora and Rey Escorpión). Místico won his first singles title in CMLL when he defeated Pólvora for the CMLL World Welterweight Championship on February 16, 2014. On March 28, Los Estetas del Aire lost the CMLL World Trios Championship to Los Guerreros Laguneros (Euforia, Niebla Roja and Último Guerrero). On May 2, Místico was involved in a motorcycle accident in which he broke both the fibula and tibia in his right leg, forcing him to undergo surgery the following day. During a press conference on November 19, Místico announced that he was not ready to return to the ring and vacated the CMLL World Welterweight Championship.
