Mexican Wrestling Hit Hard By COVID-19

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

From the Observer Daily Update:

"El Fantasma, the head of the Box y Lucha commission and legit father of the NXT star, said that he knows of 30 deaths since the start of May and he believes 90 percent of them are related to COVID-19, although in most cases no causes of death were released to the public"

Jesus christ that's horrifying

And should probably be the biggest slap in the face to WWE especially to not take this shit lightly.

To humor this for a second WWE is also the only one to so far have a positive test and wasn't testing before that happened either. AEW has done more but has still done things that could be frowned upon. But this is not meant to be an AEW vs WWE thread so moving on.

From what I know about the Mexican wrestling scene they aren't exactly the most worried about safety or cleanliness so while im sure Covid plated a part in deaths i think there are more factors

This isn't the place for more WWE/AEW stuff.

In regards to lucha, I/we have made something like two dozen threads since February regarding various passings. Most, not all but most, have been older, retired workers in their 60s or above. This isn't necessarily about current workers and shows, though I'm sure that's not helping.
