One of the best luchadores in the past 6+years passed earlier this year and I never read anything about it until surfing the web this afternoon.

Abismo Negro, a popular Mexican wrestler who wrestled for AAA, WWE, and TNA, was found dead in Mexico on Sunday, reports wrestlingobserver.com. Negro was 37 years old.
According to local media in Mexico, Negro's body was found in a river in El Rosario, Mexico, which is north of Mexico City.
Negro wrestled on a major card for the AAA promotion last weekend when he lost a four-way elimination match on the Rey de Reyes 2009 show on March 15 in Guadalajara, Mexico.
Negro was on U.S. TV in the late 1990s with a few appearances on WWE Raw before taking part in TNA's World X Cup tournament in 2007
He was easily the best heel in Mexico and a good worker who adapted well to the American style when he wrestled against them. Real shame...most reports speculate it was foul play too.

I think it was quietly put out there because of the perceived connection to drugs and/or drug cartel.
