Armando Mercado Garcia is a Mexican luchador, or professional wrestler, who works under the ring name Guapito. He currently works for the Mexican Consejo Mundial de Lucha Librepromotion where he portrays a face. He is one of the competitors in CMLL's Micro-Estrella division where he competes with and against other wrestlers with dwarfism. He began his career in 2006 working as the masked mascota companion Madrox, sometimes spelled Mandrox, working for AAA as part of their "Los Alienigenas" group. In 2007 he began working as Guapito, playing a vain, self-obsessed "Guapo" character as he worked as a mascota for Shocker and Scorpio Jr. who portrayed similar characters. In 2017 Guapito made his debut in CMLL's Micro-Estrella division.
Garcia's first job in professional wrestling involved him playing the role of "Mandrox" a masked mascota for an AAA group known as "Los Alienigenas". The group consisted of Alliens, Mungo, and Kriptor along with Mandrox, all of whom wore alien inspired masks and bodysuits, essentially pretending to be extraterrestrial wrestlers, communicating mainly with clicking sounds. The group worked primarily with El Alebrije and his diminutive mascotaCuije. In 2007, AAA began teasing that the Los Guapos VIP group would introduce a new leader since their previous leader Shocker had left AAA. AAA introduced Garcia under the ring name "Guapito", complete with bleach blonde hair, and expensive-looking suits as the leader/mascota of Los Guapos VIP. Guapito and Scorpio Jr. unsuccessfully challenged Cuije and El Alebrije for the AAA Mascot Tag Team Championship on December 2, 2007. In 2008 most of Los Guapos VIP left AAA to work on the independent circuit, but Guapito returned to AAA shortly afterward without any explanation. At the 2008 Guerra de Titanes show, Guapito accompanied El Brazo for a six-man steel cage match, where the last person in the cage would get his hair shaved off. The match came down to El Brazo and El Elegido when Guapito entered the cage to help out. As Elegido climbed out, El Brazo attacked Guapito, hoping to leave the diminutive Guapito in the cage to get his hair shaved off, instead Guapito was able to climb out, forcing El Brazo to be shaved bald.
In early 2017 CMLL hired Guapito to help establish a Micro-Estrellas division, featuring only wrestlers with dwarfism. The first match of the Micro-Estrellas division took place on April 30, 2017, and saw El Gallito and Microman defeat Mije and Zacarias in a special featured match, with Guapito as the referee for the match. By the fall of 2017, Guapito transitioned from being the Micro-Estrella referee to being a competitor, making his debut in the division on October 17. For the first anniversary of the Micro-Estrellas division, CMLL held an eight-micros torneo ciberneticoelimination match, featuring the entire active Micro-Estrella division at the time. Guapito, Microman, Atomo, and Zacarias took on Mije, Angelito, Chamuel, and El Gallito. In the end Microman pinned Chamuel to win the tournament while Guapito was the fifth man eliminated from the match. The Micro-Estrellas appeared at CMLL's Leyendas Mexicanassupercard show where Guapito, Microman, and El Gallito defeated Mije, Chamuel and Zacarias in the second match of the night. At the 2019 Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show Guapito and his team once again won. Guapito, Zaracias, and Chamuel joined forces once again for the Arena Coliseo 76th Anniversary show, but once against lost to the trio of Atomo, Gallito, and Microman. With the popularity of the Micro-Estrellas division, CMLL introduced the CMLL World Micro-Estrellas Championship in December 2019. Guapito and five other Micro-Estrellas were involved in the elimination match to determine the first champion on December 25. Guapito was the second man eliminated, as he was pinned by El Gallito. In the end, Chamuel defeated Microman to win the championship.
