During the event, Escobaza dove out of the ring while performing a spot against his opponent Rush, missing the target and collided with the steel barricade and the concrete floor instead.
There were reports of Escobaza’s death that were falsely put forth, and AAA had to refute these claims as it seemed like the wrestler was on the path toward recovery for his injuries. Unfortunately, Escobaza never bounced back from those injuries and the world of pro-wrestling lost a very talented star, reports Comicbook.
Escoboza had distinguished himself from the original La Parka who performed as part of WCW in the ’90s. Escobaza was known as La Parka II among fans during his time in Asistencia Asesoría y Administración, or the AAA.
