Now Viewing: el_fuerteTag type: Character El Fuerte ("The Strong" in Spanish) is a masked Mexican luchador. He is an aspiring chef who seeks out the greatest fighters in order to learn what they eat, and incorporate their recipes into his cuisine. Despite his love of cooking, it seems he is actually quite incompetent as a chef. Many of his moves have Mexican food themed names. In the UDON comic series of Street Fighter, it shows that El Fuerte is a big fan of R. Mika. As a wrestler, he automatically recognized fellow wrestler, Zangief, as "Tornado Rojo" (aka Red Cyclone); he then announces his title as "The Hurricane of the Gulf of Mexico.". He also has a friendly rivalry with T. Hawk, having been bested by him before the events of Super Street Fighter IV and told to challenge him again when he got stronger. Unlike the other characters of the series, El Fuerte takes his source of inspiration from real wrestlers from Mexico, in particular El Santo, the most prominent masked Mexican wrestler of the past half-century, who also wore a silver mask and was famous for his exciting wrestling style. El Fuerte is voiced by Daisuke Ono (Naruto, Itsuki Koizumi) in Japanese, and J.B. Blanc in English.
