1. One Of Lucha's Best
It is extremely unfair that Perro Aguayo Jr. will be remembered mainly due to the manner in which he died. Whilst the coverage in the aftermath of the accident is hardly surprising, it seems unfair that this is what Perro Aguayo Jr. will be remember for. It is no exaggeration to say that he was one of Mexican wrestling's brightest talents. He was a star, sort of like the Mexican equivalent to Seth Rollins. Aguayo had many memorable matches, was involved in several more memorable angles and was part of some big-money feuds during a career that was tragically cut short. He wasn't perfect. Perro would often no-show events. This was the reason for the aforementioned 'fake cancer' angle, which was a shameless piece of business. Aguayo was also sent home from a show or two when he was deemed to be in 'no condition to perform', either too drunk or too high to wrestle. But when he was on, he was one of the best performers in Mexico, a man capable of having a great, dramatic match and drawing the people in. He was a respected twenty year veteran, as well as a family man, who had a lot of life let to live. Do yourself a favour and don't just seek out the video of his tragic passing. Make sure you look at some of his work, too. Perro's legacy deserves to be as a great performer, not a wrestling tragedy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=283-qy2kpJM
