Cuerno will now go by his real name Jorge Bolly and is set to be paired with 205 Live wrestler Raul Mendoza to form the tag team, Tequila. When explaining the team's name, Bolly said it's because "we're going to knock you out."

Bolly has been wrestling since 2008, but really rose to prominence once he debuted as King Cuerno in Lucha Underground in 2014. In the Californian promotion, he competed in high profile feuds against Johnny Mundo, Prince Puma and Fenix, winning the Gift Of The Gods Championship on one occasion. He announced he had left both AAA and Lucha Underground in March 2019 and wrestled across the world for a short time before signing with WWE in September.
