Príncipe Aéreo passed away from a ruptured middle cerebral artery, according to the medical report obtained by Mas Lucha. Initial reports had it as a heart attack. Instead, it’s a brain injury, an aneurysm. They’re very rare in an athlete the age of Príncipe Aéreo (23). Some types of aneurysms can be caused by head injuries. I have not seen the full match, I did not see an obvious head injury in the clip that was online and reports of people there live do not mention anything significant. (There’s a clip of a dive he performed during the match and his head does not impact anything.) Príncipe Aéreo does not signal any head injury in the moments before he collapses; it is possible he had a condition he was born with which went undiscovered. | |||
There is an ongoing investigation into Príncipe Aéreo’s passing. I do not know if we’ll ultimately hear much more about it, but both the [[Mexico State]] lucha libre commission and other authorities are looking into the death. That should be standard practice any time someone passes away in a match. | |||
There is a GoFundMe for Príncipe Aéreo around, saying they’re raising money for funeral expenses. GoFundMe is not a website Mexicans use to raise money. This GoFundMe is not connected to the main promotion sponsoring Saturday’s show ([[MexaWrestling]]), Príncipe Aéreo’s family, or the wrestlers who were his friends. Some of those people have asked people not to send money towards it. MexaWrestling and [[Lucha Time]] (a [[Monterrey]] promotion who provided some of the wrestlers, including the other wrestler who was in the ring when Príncipe Aéreo collapsed) have said they will be paying for all funeral expenses. The wrestlers on the show are also contributing their pay for the night.
