[Breaking News] Mexican Star Abismo Negro Found Dead at 37

Mexican star Andres Gonzalez, known professionally as Abismo Negro, was found dead, floating in a river in El Rosario, Mexico earlier today.

Reports suggest that Gonzalez was on a bus with other passengers heading to Mexico City when he became agitated, panicked and demanded to be let off the bus at 1:30 AM. He then sent a text message to his wife that he was lost outside. She contacted local wrestling promoter Vicente Martinez who organized a search party. On the morning of March 22nd, Gonzalez was found floating face down in the river.


Gonzalez wrestled for AAA, CMLL, EMLL, WWE and as part of Team Mexico in TNA. He also appeared in Japan on several occasions.

He was 37 years old.

Legends Championship Wrestling would like to extend our deepest sympathies to the friends and family of Abismo Negro.
