Source-derived summary

Arturo Muñoz Sánchez (born April 7, 1969), better known by his ring name La Bestia del Ring, is a Mexican professional wrestler working on the Mexican independent circuit as a member of La Facción Ingobernable. He is best known for his time in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). Muñoz is the father of wrestlers William Arturo Muñoz González (better known as Rush) and masked wrestlers Dralístico and Dragon Lee.

Muñoz has worked under various ring names during his career, most notably as Comandante Pierroth (or simply Pierroth), a successor to the original Pierroth Jr. He previously worked as Dr. Kent, Poder Indio, Poder Boricua, Poder Mexica and Toro Blanco. He initially joined CMLL in 2001 as a part of Los Boricuas, using the masked character Poder Boricua. When he returned to CMLL in 2013 as "Comandante Pierroth", he led his own version of Los Boricuas called La Comando Caribeño with Pierrothito, Pequeño Violencia, La Comandante and Zeuxis. As La Bestia del Ring, Muñoz was part of the Los Ingobernables ("The Ungovernables") stable with his son Rush and El Terrible until late 2019.

Personal life

Three of Muñoz' sons have followed in his footsteps and became professional wrestlers; the oldest works under the ring name Rush, his younger son works as Dralístico (formerly known as the second Místico), and his youngest son debuted in 2014 as Dragon Lee.
