'What a tragedy': WWE stars SHOCKED as Mexican wrestler DIES in ring at 26 after collapsing in front of horrified opponent (VIDEO)
A Mexican wrestler has died at the age of 26 after sinking to the floor following a series of blows in a match in Mexico, drawing tributes from two of the stars of the sport as the shocking footage was shared among stunned fans.
Principe Aereo did not initially appear to be in any obvious trouble after absorbing punches to his chest and a kick to his stomach during a MexaWrestling card at the Arena San Juan Pantitlan in the State of Mexico.
As his opponent bounced off the far ropes and jogged towards him in search of another attack, Aereo tumbled backwards and to his left in front of a packed crowd, causing his fellow wrestler to immediately drop to the canvas in an attempt to help him.
The referee also tried to save Aereo as he lay sprawled near a corner of the ring before another wrestler appeared to charge from the opposite side of the ropes and launch a misjudged kick at his opponent.
