Jonathan Saharawi Barragán González (born October 20, 1991), known under the ring name Arez, is a Mexican luchador, or professional wrestler. Since 2018, Arez has wrestled in Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide, where he is one-half of the current AAA World Mixed Tag Team Champions along with Chik Tormenta in their first reign, as well as Major League Wrestling and on the independent circuit.
Arez has also wrestled in the United States in MLW and Impact Wrestling through their partnership with AAA.[1] He was also part of the stable Los Indystrongtibles along with Belial and Impulso who were very well known and successful on the Mexican independent scene between 2013 and 2018.[2] The group has not been formally dissolved, but the three have rarely wrestled together since 2018, when Arez has become an increasingly big name in his own right. Arez has since developed a rivalry with Aramís, and they have fought several matches against each other.
Instead of wearing a mask,[3] Arez wrestles in an advanced body and face painting inspired by the character Venom. Finn Bálor has in turn taken inspiration from Arez and sometimes uses a similar painting.[4]
