For those that aren't familiar this would be the equivalent of like Randy Orton dying in the ring
according to cubsfan it is more like John Cena

And now the little stuff I didn’t have the heart to put in that post…

There probably will be a public wake in the next few days. AAA just had one on Friday. I can’t even begin to understand what they’re going thru. I just heard the grief in Enrique & Oscar’s voices on their last podcast, and the joy with a job well done from Konnan and Perro when they made a run-in and now Perro’s gone too.

I’m 100% sure there will be some sort of investigation about the doctor at ringside for the match, who did not react to what happen quick enough. There’s enough lucha comission bureaucracy in Tijuana to make that happen. It’ll probably just be a routine check, because it seems like a freak accident that could not have been prevented, but it does look horrible when Konnan’s the only one who noticed something was wrong. (Man, poor Konnan.)

I’d guess this weekend’s Lucha Underground tapings are going on, just like the Rey de Reyes went on. However, If you have tickets, you should keep an eye on their Twitter just to be sure. Just like Rey de Reyes, going on with those shows or canceling those shows are both correct options.

I’d assume most other shows will go on, but with very heavy hearts and maybe more precautions than usual.

The Perros del Mal need to stay together, and that insignia needs to be seen on AAA TV for some time. It’ll need to be retired at some point, but it would hurt too much to disappear right now.

There’s no one who can replace Perro. They’ll have to try anyway, because it’s too big of a hole. Mesias and Texano Jr. will have to be shifted into bigger spots for the time being. They may have to turn Alberto or Myzteziz. There’s a decent chance of one of those guys who’ve annoyed their way out of the company may be brought back one more time just to get a TripleMania main event. Maybe they go all the way with Pentagon. I dunno.

People in the US are going to compare this to Owen Hart, people who follow Japan are going to compare it to Misawa, people in Mexico might with Oro (or even Sangre India), but to me this as big than all of them in the moment. Misawa had a greater career and NOAH’s struggled without him, but NOAH was struggling prior to him. The others were more midlevel players. Perro was the axis of a company doing well. He was the MVP. He can not be replaced, AAA can simply try something else.

CMLL has acknowledged the passing. That’s the magnitude, that CMLL would actually acknowledge an AAA death.

Californ-i-a by way of BK

Yeah I could see that. I used Orton because of the second generation aspect too. His father who is still alive (which has to be the worst feeling ever to lose a child) was a huge star in Mexico.

Hard to really tell what went wrong from that second video. I wonder if that tumble out of the ring had anything to do with it. He got up pretty quick but seemed to be moving really slow once back in the ring. Maybe that was intentional though.

Crazy thing is that Rey has done spots like that a thousand times with little incident and it goes horribly wrong just like that.:to:

:rip: To Perro.

Looks like he was dazed, came back in the ring, Rey hit the dropkick, he fell into the ropes, bounced in between them and the back off his head hit the top rope. and that's what did him in

fukcing chilling to watch

There's blood or... something coming out of his eye. I saw a comment elsewhere state means it could've been a specific type of skull fracture.

I think the combo of the fall out of the ring/dropkick/hitting the ropes did it.

:rip: All Rey has been through the last year and now this. I'm no doctor but is it possible dude had a pre-existing condition and or injury and the blow just exacerbated it?
