the 2015 Rey de Reyes, in which Aguayo Jr. teamed up with Pentagón Jr., only to lose to Myzteziz and the returning Rey Mysterio Jr. Death On March 20, 2015, Aguayo wrestled a tag team match, teaming with Manik against Rey Mysterio Jr. and Xtreme Tiger at a show for The Crash promotion in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. During the match, Mysterio used a headscissors takedown which according to Mysterio, was suppose to propel Aguayo into the 619 position on the ropes but for some reason he bumped and went out to the floor. Aguayo returned to the ring, upon which Mysterio dropkicked Aguayo in the shoulder to again set up for Mysterio's signature 619 as Aguayo landed on the middle rope (the proper position for the 619). Aguayo appeared to attempt to stand up with his left leg. Manik then fell onto the middle rope beside Aguayo;when Aguayo appeared to be limp and unconscious, Manik shook him slightly to revive him. Mysterio bounced off the middle rope to performed the 619, but did not hit either opponent as Aguayo was already slumped over the middle rope and Manik ducked. While the match continued, Konnan, who was at ringside, then attempted to revive the seemingly unconscious Aguayo by shaking him. The match still continued, with Mysterio next checking on the unmoving Aguayo, bringing it to the referee's attention. The match continued, with Mysterio pinning Manik at the center of the ring while Konnan again attempted to revive Aguayo. With the match over, various personnel went to Aguayo, believing he was just unconscious and in need of medical help. Officials later brought Aguayo out of the ring. When paramedics arrived, Aguayo was brought to the local Del Prado hospital, where he was pronounced dead around 1:00 am on March 21. Aguayo was 35 years old. According to the initial statement by the hospital, Aguayo died from a cervical spine trauma, reportedly as a result of the dropkick by Mysterio Jr. that propelled him forward to the ring ropes, causing severe whiplash trauma that snapped his neck. The cause of death was later determined as cardiac arrest, due to a cervical stroke caused by three fractured vertebrae. Autopsy results showed that Aguayo Jr. broke his C-1, C-2, and C-3 vertebrae. The coroner stated that the fractures took place at two different moments of impact and that Aguayo died almost instantly. An alternative
