description: "Juan Carlos López Escalera Samaniego, better known by his ring-name Octagón, is a Mexican professional wrestler. He is best known for working for Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), having worked for the promotion since it was founded in 1992. In 2011 he was inducted into the promotion's Hall of Fame. Octagón formed a tag team with El Hijo Del Santo to take on Los Gringos Locos in a double mask versus hair match on the first pay-per-view put on by a Mexican wrestling promotion to air in the United States. Over the years the Octagón gimmick has spawned a mascot called Octagoncito and an \"Evil clone\" known as Pentagón. In 2014, Escalera quit AAA."
