The Roman Emperor Commodus was assassinated on January 1, 192 AD, in a conspiracy led by his own sister, Lucilla, and several members of the Senate. They were motivated by Commodus's increasingly erratic behavior and tyrannical rule. The actual task of killing him was carried out by a wrestler named Narcissus, who was hired to carry out the assassination. Commodus’s death marked the end of the Nerva-Antonine dynasty and led to a period of instability in the Roman Empire.
