As part of their ongoing storyline, Garza and Aguayo Jr. teamed up to defeat "Los Vipers" (Abismo Negro and Electroshock) to win the Mexican National Tag Team Championship, starting a 61-day reign. Their reign was ended by El Texano and Pirata Morgan on September 8, 2000. The four-way feud led to a "Lucha de Apuetas" match between Garza and Heavy Metal as part of AAA's 2001 "Guerra de Titanes" PPV. The match saw Garza pin Heavy Metal in the third and deciding fall, forcing Heavy Metal to have all of his hair shaved off.
