Antheus Ortiz Chávez (born February 28, 1992), better known under the ring name Hijo de Pirata Morgan, is a Mexican professional wrestler, currently working for the Mexican promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) portraying a técnico ("Good guy") wrestling character. Hijo de Pirata Morgan's real name was not a matter of public record until March 16, 2013, where he lost his wrestling mask and had to reveal his real name. This is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the professional wrestling fans while they are masked. He is legitimately the son of professional wrestler Pedro Ortiz Villanueva, better known as Pirata Morgan, and not a storyline family relationship as it sometimes the case in Lucha Libre.

Personal life Antheus Ortiz Chávez is the son of Pedro Ortiz Villanueva, who is better known as Pirata Morgan. He is the brother of professional wrestler Pirata Morgan, Jr. and female wrestler Perla Negra ("Black Pearl"). He is the nephew of professional wrestlers Hombre Bala, Verdunga and La Marquesa and the cousin of wrestlers Rey Bucanero, Hombre Bala Jr., Corsario, Barba Roja and India Sioux. In an interview Ortiz revealed that his father had three wrestling masks made in 1992, one for his cousin Rey Bucanero, who actually wrestled as "Hijo de Pirata Morgan" at one point, one for his older brother and one for himself, even though he had not yet been born. The mask was a reminder and a goal for him growing up, aspiring to one day become a pro wrestler like his father. His father insisted on his son getting an education before becoming a pro wrestler, but he decided to secretly train to show his determination and dedication. Once his father saw his son's desire he furthered his training, allowing him to train in the AAA wrestling school that he ran at the time.

Professional wrestling career

International Wrestling Revolution Group (2005–2015) He made his debut in 2005, at the age of only 13, working under a mask as the ring character Némesis for International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG). There is some confusion about the name as there was also a wrestler in AAA who used the name "Némesis" around the same time as well as after Hijo de Pirata Morgan began working under a different name, it is possible that he initially played the role in AAA as well, especially since his father was running the AAA wrestling school at the time. Hijo de Pirata Morgan has stated that he was at Triplemanía XIV, but it is unclear if he meant as Nemesis or if he accompanied his father for a match. As Nemesis he teamed up with Kaleth and Pirata Morgan, Jr. to form a trio called Los Jinetes de Apocalipsis ("The Horsemen of the Apocalypse"). He was one of 30 participants in the 2005 Rey del Ring tournament, but was eliminated after only being in the ring for a short period of time. On December 5, 2005, Némesis participated in IWRG's annual El Castillo del Terror ("Castle of Terror") event, a multi-man steel cage match where the last person in the cage was forced to unmask or have their hair shaved off. Némesis was one of the last two men in the ring along with Ultra Mega, with Némesis being able to escape the ring and was thus credited with unmasking Ultra Mega as per the match stipulation. In 2007 Pirata Morgan introduced a group called Los Piratas in AAA, it consisted of the former Los Jinetes de Apocalipsis as Kaleth became "Barbe Roja" ("Red Beard") and Nemesis became "Drake Morgan", all three billed as sons of Pirata Morgan, even though Kaleth/Barbe Roja was not related. A few months later Drake Morgan" was renamed "Hijo de Pirata Morgan. It is believed that someone else took over the Némesis character in IWRG (and perhaps even AAA) at this event. Hijo de Pirata Morgan, Pirata Morgan, Jr. and Barbe Roja continued to work as Los Piratas in the first or second match of the night, working against young tecnico (wrestlers who portray the "good guys") such as Real Fuerza Aérea. Los Piratas teamed up with Pirata Morgan for the 2008 Reina de Reinas ("Queen of Queens") show, losing to Real Area Fuerza. Los Piratas teamed up with Pirata Morgan for the 2008 Reina de Reinas ("Queen of Queens") show, losing to the Real Fuerza Aérea team of Gato Eveready, Aero Star, El Ángel and Pegasso. In late 2008 Barba Roja and El Hijo de Pirata Morgan were both released from AAA andin early 2009 Pirata Morgan, along with Pirata Morgan, Jr. also left AAA, citing his dissatisfaction with the direction of the company in recent years.

Following his AAA departure he became a regular worker for IWRG again as well as working for a number of promotions on the Mexican Independent circuit. On November 5, 2009, Hijo de Pirata Morgan participanted in his first IWRG tournament under that ring name as he teamed up with Oficial AK-47 for a Ruleta de la Muerte (Spanish for "Roulette of Death") tournament, in which tag teams face off in a single elimination tournament, but unlike traditional tournaments it is the losing team that advances in the tournament and the losing team in the finals would be forced to face off against each other in a Luchas de Apuestas match. In the first round the team lost to El Hijo del Diablo and Zatura, in the second round they lost to Arlequin Negro and Ultraman, Jr. to go to the finals. In the final match Hijo de Pirata and AK-47 defeated Chico Che and Gringo Loco to keep their masks safe. IWRG held a special tournament to identify the next IWRG Intercontinental Tag Team Champions with a tournament where all the teams were fathers and sons. Hijo de Pirata Morgan teamed up with Pirata Morgan to defeat Brazo de Plata and Brazo de Plata, Jr., Los Bravos (Fuerza Guerrera and Juventud Guerrera) and the team of Máscara Año 2000 and Máscara Año 2000, Jr., to qualify for the finals of the tournament. In the finals Los Piratas defeated the team of Negro Navarro and Trauma I, marking the first championship victory for Hijo de Pirata Morgan. The team would hold the title for 139 days, until June 20, 2010, when Los Junior Dinamitas (Máscara Año 2000, Jr. and Hijo de Cien Caras) won the title from them. The storyline feud with Los Junior Dinamitas led to Hijo de Pirata and both Dinamitas being part of IWRG's 2010 Castillo del Terror ("Castle of Terror") event where all 10 competitors risked their match. None of the three were involved in the finish as they escaped the steel cage early in the match. On November 14, 2010 Los Piratas regained the IWRG Tag Team Championship from Los Junior Dinamitas. At some point in 2010 Hijo de Pirata won the UWF United States Championship during a tour of Texas, the title was defended in IWRG as well, both as the United States championship and as the IWRG Texas Heavyweight Championship. On December 19, 2010, in yet another chapter of the long running feud with Los Dinamitas Máscara Año 2000, Jr. won the title from Hijo de Pirata. In early 2011 Hijo de Pirata teamed up with Hammer for IWRG's first ever Torneo Proyeccion a Nuevas Promesas de la Lucha Libre ("Designing a new promise of Wrestling" Tournament), designed to identify a future headliner. The team lost in the opening round to Dinamic Black and Negro Navarro. In February 2011 IWRG created a new championship, the IWRG Junior de Juniors Championship, exclusively for second and third-generation wrestlers. The tournament saw Hijo de Pirata defeat Trauma I in the semi-final and then El Hijo de L.A. Park in the finals to become the first ever Junior de Juniors champion. A few months later Hijo de Pirata lost the title to Trauma I in a match that also included Hijo de L.A. Park where both his opponents risked their masks against Hijo de Pirata's title at the 2011 Rebelión de los Juniors show.
