Argenis

Argenis is a book by John Barclay. It is a work of historical allegory which tells the story of the religious conflict in France under Henry III of France and Henry IV of France, and also touches on more contemporary English events, such as the Overbury scandal. The tendency is royalist, anti-aristocratic; it is told from the angle of a king who reduces the landed aristocrats' power in the interest of the "country", the interest of which is identified with that of the king.

Some early editions

Argenis (wrestler)

Argenis is a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, who is working in the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA). His ring name is the Latin word for Silver. Argenis is the son of retired professional wrestler Dr. Karonte and has wrestled as Dr. Karonte, Jr. in the past, as well as Hijo del Dr. Karonte (Spanish for "Son of Dr. Karonte"). Argenis' real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans. His patronymic surname is known though, as his father Manuel Almanza wrestled as Dr. Karonte, he was unmasked and revealed his full name per Lucha libre traditions. He is the brother of professional wrestlers Místico, Astro Boy, Argos, and Mini Murder Clown.

Professional wrestling career

Early career (2006–2015)

Argenis made his professional wrestling debut in 2006, working as "Dr. Karonte, Jr.", named after his father. He would also work as "Hijo del Dr. Karonte", neither gimmick led to much success. By 2007 he began working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) as a Rudo (heel or "bad guy") After he left CMLL he complained to several magazines that he felt that his brother Místico should have asked CMLL to give him more opportunities. After leaving CMLL he began working for International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG), but again met only with limited success, even after he became a tecnico (face or "good guy").
