in the old days this would signal a natural heel turn for mysterio and he'd be renamed "el interruptor enmascarada de cuellos"

sk posted:i found out about this on facebook where it just said "Wrestler dies in ring during match with Rey Mysterio" or something, so i can imagine this is hard for rey for sure. tragic I heard it reported on my local news radio station. If this gets more mainstream publicity Rey might never hear the end of it. fake e: Saw the yahoo screengrab, welp

I'm actually legitimately surprised that the headline wasn't,"WWE Star dies in ring" with a picture of Rey Mysterio as the graphic.

Many sites are reporting this as a 619 that hit him in the trachea and caused severe whiplash

I went and looked him up on Wikipedia, drat, he debuted in 1995. He was a drat teenager and he wrestled for 20 years, and in a lucha libre style. It's a tragedy, but drat if it isn't understandable in retrospect.

Lucha is often easier on the body than most styles since there is less bumping but Perro did some brutal garbage brawls and had substance abuse issues so he wasn't in the same stars are.

Did El Hijo get a chance to be in the WWE? I don't know a lot of wrestling history, didn't DDP enter wrestling in his 30's? Watched the video and it looks he took some good hits and injured himself trying to sell one too many times

Just watched the video and wished I didn't. Like people have said it's an accident no one is at fault. Even Konnan who seems to handle Perro roughly is coming from it being both a guy whose body is majorly hosed so can't move properly and probably thinking that Perro was just knocked silly. It's probably one of the last things you would consider in that context 'oh one of my fellow wrestlers is slumped against the middle rope, he must be dead'. Mexican wrestling does have some serious problems, take the 'surprise' death of Abismo Negro some years back or Charley Manson currently doing jail time. I see the Lucha Underground thread and all the joy it brings people and I hope continued support and growth of that show can help build a greater international audience for lucha and hopefully profits will help improve the working conditions and lower the tolerance to drugs and alcohol abuse in the lucha scene.

Yuriy posted:yea, i said i wasn't gonna watch it because i dont wanna be seeing no snuff video but it autoplayed on facebook and its just sad because nothing there is like shockingly out of place spot or bump wise and it still loving killed him =/ This was worse than snuff for me because I can just avoid that stuff and you sort of know what you're getting into if you watch it. Here it's just a fall into the rope and that's it. No blood, no anything, just alive one second and gone the next with no visible reason or reaction. Friggin' sucks.

A kinda scary anecdote on lucha attitudes towards perfomers' health and alcohol use from the 2/2/2015 Observer:quote:There was a report from Japan from the owner of a wrestling store saying that Mistico was in terrible pain the entire Japanese tour, and at the 1/18 Korakuen Hall show (the second to last show), he was in tears backstage. The wrestlers from New Japan told him he needed to go to the hospital, but his seniors in CMLL told him he would be okay if he just drank heavily (that is something of a Mexican protocol in some circles).

Jesus Christ that Hurricarana was all kinds of wrong. If that dropkick didn't kill him, he would have dropped like a sack flour walking out of the ring.

Indie promotion called Crash using AAA talent and others, from what I can tell. From Twitter: quote:@therealfredo: Box, Lucha & MMA Commisioner of Tijuana says Perro Aguayo Jr's death was due to cardiac arrest. http://t.co/7hNZFa3NyN It'll be a couple more days until everything is settled. One report said "spinal stroke" which seemed pretty odd and maybe some kind of mistranslation. skaboomizzy fucked around with this message at 01:34 on Mar 22, 2015 |

If Japanese wrestlers are saying someone should go to the hospital, they should probably have gone to the hospital several days ago. Sometimes this lame loving pastime is too horrible.

Hearing that it really does seem to be from the neck on the rope setup is even more nuts, that spot is usually so innocuous. He had to have had some crazy poo poo going on

The report on Twitter I saw was "golpe que tuvo en la región cervical" which would be trauma to the cervical spine but Luchablog translated as "spinal stroke", I'm not up on my Spanish medical terms though.

Watching the thing, it looks like he's a bit messed up from that roll he does. He gets up and nearly botches the hurricarana and goes to the outside, gets back in and can barely get up when the dropkick hits, which knocks him out. Then Konnan shaking him around like that and all the movement that takes place afterwards couldn't have helped at all. And holy gently caress the irresponsible hacks who are saying it was the 619 that killed him. Just how much of a shithead do you have to be to make something like that up? Someone had to have said it first to get it reported, and you can bet it was someone who just have to have the scoop that Rey killed a guy with his signature move in Mexico. No thought, no care, just 'Rey killed a guy'. loving rear end in a top hat scum of the earth.

They probably saw the first reports that speculated it was from the dropkick, didn't see the video and follow-up reports that came later on, and then didn't look into it afterwards because there's no one on staff who knows a hoot about lucha libre.

This is completely and utter speculation, but I'm imagining that it's a Misawa type situation where his body was already having serious issues? I don't know. It sure does look like he was messed up well before that in this match.
