>>9897350The world of Lucha Libre (Mexican Wrestling) is sometimes notoriously corrupt, making stories such as this almost certainly lean towards foul play. Andrés Alejandro Palomeque González was a masked wrestler for the prominent federation AAA and known as Abismo Negro. Usually donning a mask, he competed for popular US feds like WWE and TNA on occasion. He was having trouble with AAA and many felt that he was probably going to "jump ship" to a rival company called CMLL since he obviously was not happy. This got so bad that he would miss shows occasionally forcing AAA to make a rip off character named Black Abyss to satisfy contract obligations that González was missing. At 37, it was reported that his body had been found face down in a shallow river full of thick mud.
According to sources, including a bus driver, AAA wrestlers were on a bus to Mexico City on Friday March 20, 2009 - Abismo Negro became agitated, panicked and demanded to be let off the bus despite it being 1:30 in the morning. What happened to him after this moment is shrouded in uncertainty and whispers of conspiracy. Before he died, Gonzalez sent a text message to his wife telling her that he was lost in the hills by a river. Panicked, she got in touch with Vicente Martinez, a local promoter in Mazatlan, who began the search for his whereabouts. The search party went around local towns showing photos of him trying to get any information and they eventually found his body floating down the river near a bridge.
