Just found this out a few minutes ago:
"Abismo Negro, who made a few notable appearances in the US during his career, including the 1997 WWE Royal Rumble and the 2004 TNA World X-Cup...Andrés González passed away on March 22, 2009. His body was found in the afternoon in the river of the town El Rosario. No definite cause of death has been determined as of yet, nor has foul play been ruled out. According to a bus driver who was transporting González and other passengers to Mexico City, González became agitated, almost panicked and demanded to be let off the bus despite it being 1:30 in the morning. After leaving the bus González found himself lost on the dark hillside, confirmed by a text he sent to his wife. After the text message his wife contacted local wrestling promoter Vicente Martinez who organized a search party. In the moring of March 22 González was found floating face down in the river. Afterwards medical expert Jesús Enrique Castro López stated that such an anxiety attack could be steroid related, but González alleged steroid abuse has yet to be confirmed.
Andrés Alejandro Palomeque González (July 1, 1971 - March 22, 2009) was a Mexican Luchador Enmascarado (Spanish for "Masked professional wrestler"). González is best known for working as Abismo Negro (Spanish for "Black Abyss" or "black hole") but also had a 5 year run as Winners in AAA. In his professional wrestling career lGonzález has worked for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) and Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) in Mexico, World Wrestling Federation (WWF) and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling in the United States as well as making limited appearances for Michinoku Pro and Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan."
News reports are calling it a heart attack though there is skepticism surrounding this considering the strange events that led up to his death.
