José Rafael Cordero, better known by the ring name Lince Dorado (Spanish for Golden Lynx), is an American professional wrestler of Puerto Rican descent currently performing on the independent circuit. He is best known for his time in WWE, where he was a member of Lucha House Party. Cordero began his career in 2007, working for several independent promotions in Puerto Rico and United States, most notably the Philadelphia-based Chikara, where he won the 2008 edition of the King of Trios, a tournament between trios along with El Pantera and Incognito. He was contacted by WWE in 2016 to be part of the Cruiserweight Classic, a tournament between several cruiserweight wrestlers. He was eliminated in the second round, but WWE offered him a contract. He was paired with masked wrestlers Kalisto and Gran Metalik to form a stable called Lucha House Party. In 2023, Cordero re-joined WWE as a trainer in the WWE Performance Center.
