Timeline

1980

CMLL previously had other people work under the name "La Sombra" in the 1980s and 1990s; CMLL did not promote the most recent La Sombra as having any relation to the previous incarnations at all, although the relationship was later subtly acknowledged when La Sombra began wrestling in a black and silver version of his father's mask.

La Sombra quickly moved up the ranks of CMLL in the months after his debut.

The first sign of CMLL putting their faith in La Sombra came when the promoters him teamed up with CMLL's main good guy (known as a técnico in Spanish) Místico for their annual Torneo Gran Alternativa ("Great Alternative Tournament") where a rookie and a veteran team up.

1989

Manuel Alfonso Andrade Oropeza (born November 3, 1989) is a Mexican professional wrestler.

He is currently signed to WWE, where he performs on the Raw brand under the ring name Andrade.

He is best known for his appearances in Mexico for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre and in Japan for New Japan Pro-Wrestling under the ring name La Sombra (Spanish for "The Shadow"), in the American promotion WWE under the ring name Andrade "Cien" Almas (later shortened to simply Andrade), and in the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW) under the ring name Andrade El Idolo (also stylized Andrade "El Ídolo").

Manuel Alfonso Andrade Oropeza was born in Gómez Palacio, Durango, on November 3, 1989.

He is the son of Jose Andrade Salas, who wrestles as Brillante.

He became part of the third generation of the Andrade family to compete in lucha libre.

His grandfather, José Andrade, wrestled under the name "El Moro", while his uncles wrestle or wrestled under the names Diamante/Moro III (Sergio Andrade), Zafiro/Pentagoncito (real name unrevealed), Kevin (Juan Andrade), Espanto Jr../Pentagón (Jesús Andrade), and Espiritu Magico (Juan Andrade), and his younger cousins works in CMLL as the current Espanto Jr.., Brillante Jr.. and Lady Shadow as of 2023.

With his father, uncles and grandfather being involved in running a local lucha libre promotion and school in Durango, Andrade began training for a professional career from an early age, initially by playing around with his father and uncles, but later began to train seriously for a career in the wrestling ring.

2003

He made his professional wrestling debut on October 3, 2003, a month before his 14th birthday, but only after his father signed a waiver for the local boxing and wrestling commission to issue him a license.

He began working under the ring name Brillante Jr.. in honor of his father.

Working for his family's wrestling promotion Andrade used the name "Brillante Jr.."

from 2003 through early 2007.

During that period of time, he got involved in a storyline rivalry with his uncle who wrestled as "Zafiro", leading to his first ever Lucha de Apuestas, or bet match.

By defeating Zafiro he won his first headline match, forcing Zafiro to have all his hair shaved off after the match per lucha libre traditions.

He later won another Lucha de Apuestas match, forcing the masked wrestler Camorra to unmask in the middle of the ring and reveal his real name.

During this time period Andrade also competed as the enmascarado (masked) characters "Guerrero Azteca" ("Aztec Warrior") and "Rey Azteca" ("Aztec King") on occasion.

2007

He spent eight years wrestling for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) under the name La Sombra, where he won the 2007 Torneo Gran Alternativa tournament and the 2011 Universal Championship, as well as simultaneously holding the CMLL World Tag Team Championship, Mexican National Trios Championship, and NWA World Historic Welterweight Championship.

He was one of the founding members of the Los Ingobernables ("the Ungovernables") stable, and won the masks of El Felino, Olímpico, and Volador Jr.. by defeating them in Lucha de Apuestas matches before losing his own mask to Atlantis.

While working for CMLL, Andrade also made appearances for New Japan Pro-Wrestling as part of a working agreement between CMLL and NJPW, winning the IWGP Intercontinental Championship.

In 2007 he signed with Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre ("World Wrestling Council"; CMLL), and began training under CMLL head trainer El Satánico.

He made his CMLL in-ring debut on February 27, working as "Brillante" just like his father had.

In June CMLL changed his name, rechristening him La Sombra ("The Shadow").

La Sombra and Místico defeated Heavy Metal and Super Nova in the first round, Dr. Wagner Jr. and Mascara Purpura in the semi-final and the team of Último Guerrero and Euforia in the finals to win the 2007 Tornero Gran Alternativa.

The following month, La Sombra teamed up with El Sagrado and Volador Jr.. to defeat Mr. Águila, Damián 666, and Halloween, collectively known as Los Perros del Mal ("The Bad Dogs"), to win the Mexican National Trios Championship.

On November 27, 2007, La Sombra added the NWA World Welterweight Championship to his collection when he defeated Hajime Ohara to win the title; his victory made him the youngest wrestler to hold the championship, winning it at the age of 18.

2008

2009

On January 16, 2009, La Sombra became a triple champion as he teamed up with Volador Jr.. to defeat Averno and Mephisto, winning the CMLL World Tag Team Championship.

La Sombra's time as a triple champion lasted just over two weeks, until February 3, when Sangre Azteca, Black Warrior, and Dragón Rojo Jr., collectively known as Poder Mexica ("Mexican Power") defeated La Sombra, Volador, and Sagrado to win the Mexican National Trios Championship.

On May 27, 2009, La Sombra lost the NWA World Welterweight Championship to Mephisto.

2010

In early 2010 La Sombra began a storyline feud with El Felino.

2014
