Charles Ashenoff (born January 6, 1964, Santiago, Cuba as Carlos Santiago Espada Moises) and better known by his ring name, Konnan, is a Cuban professional wrestler and rapper. During a career spanning almost three decades, he has wrestled for independent and national promotions in the United States and Mexico, and held fifteen title belts in nine promotions. He has also worked as a manager, color commentator, booker, and creative consultant, primarily for AAA.
He is best-known to United States audiences as Max Moon, a short-lived gimmick in the then-WWF in the early 1990s, as well as a memorable run in World Championship Wrestling as part of the nWo stable and as part of The Filthy Animals. He also created The 3Live Kru for TNA in the early 2000s. In Mexico, Konnan was the first-ever CMLL World Heavyweight Champion, and was the leader of the Foreign Legion in AAA when they were the top stable. He was also involved in the creation of Lucha Underground, where he served as manager to Prince Puma throughout the first season.
Konnan is known to be outspoken, and in the last decade, he has been openly critical of promotions that he feels have mistreated either himself personally or the talent in general. He has been particularly outspoken against what he sees as racism against Latino wrestlers in US promotions - he butted heads with TNA over treatment of himself and Ron Killings, and WWE over issues regarding Latino wrestlers Alberto Del Rio and Rey Mysterio Jr., but he has also come into conflict with AAA over what he alleged was non-payment of talent.
