Lucha star Hector Garza, who had runs in both WCW and TNA, passed away earlier today following a battle with lung cancer. Garza would have turned 45 next month.
Son of Mexican legend Humberto Garza, Hector was a really good in-ring performer who knew how to get the crowd into his matches with his wrestling style and his high flying skills.
A native of Monterrey, Mexico, Garza broke into Monterrey independent FILL. He worked as a babyface for EMLL for several years, putting over heel talents while winning the promotion's Trios championship.
He jumped to AAA several years later, paving the way for an appearance in the 1997 Royal Rumble PPV. The show was held in San Antonio, Texas and WWF had brought in several Lucha talents as part of a planned talent agreement with AAA that didn't last long as well as attempting to draw Latin fans to the Alamodome that housed the PPV.
During the height of the Monday Night Wars, Garza was one of many top Lucha talents brought into WCW at Konnan's suggestion. He defeated Scott Hall in a forgotten bout but was cast, like many Lucha talents were, as mid-card and undercard workers who had solid matches but were never, ever pushed, although they ended up in the mix as part of the Latino World Order.
When WCW fell apart, Garza was among the Mexican talents who returned to their home country. In AAA, Garza feuded with Latin Lover, losing his hair for the first time in his career.
In 2004, TNA began using Garza among other Mexican talents in the World X Cup tournaments. Team Mexico, featuring Garza, won the tournament as part of an attempt to build a relationship with AAA. The idea was to showcase TNA as an international force and get media attention in Mexico while also tapping into the AAA talents. AAA's relationship with TNA prevented Garza from returning to the States when he instead jumped back to CMLL, citing money issues with AAA.
When TNA and AAA's working agreement unofficially ended, the door was open for Garza to return to the promotion. He was brought in for TNA's first major three hour PPV, Victory Road and won a Gauntlet bout. The idea at the time was to create a Latin star. Garza was pushed hard underneath and even challenged Jeff Jarrett for the NWA title on an episode of Impact.
That all ended one eventful day in Houston, Texas. Garza flew into the United States and was found to be carrying steroids that he purchased legally in Mexico but were not allowed here in the States. The belief among those I spoke to at the time was that Garza was likely bringing them into the States as a favor for some of the TNA talents. In the end, Garza was deported from the country, ending his run with TNA and his careers here in the States. He may have worked some Lucha shows in the States but never returned to a national platform here.
Garza remained a full-time star for CMLL until 2011, where he announced he was joining Perros del Mal, an independent promotion that worked at times with both CMLL and AAA doing invasion angles. That run led to him winning the AAA Mexican National Championship.
Garza disclosed in October 2012 that he had been diagnosed with lung cancer, immediately retiring to begin chemotherapy to combat the disease.
Hector's brother, Humberto Garza Jr. will announce of where and when the funeral will take place, as he is working on finalizing all the details.
On behalf of everyone at PWInsider.com, we'd like to express our deepest condolences to the family, friends and fans of Hector Garza.

Cause that match was women and exoticos (drag queens). I'm so glad to see Sexy Star return to AAA, as she is my favorite women's wrestler in lucha libre |

So just watched the 8way elimination cruiserweight match on AAA Sin Límite - Verano de Escándalo Part 2.
Was rooting for Jack Evans or Angelico.
Ok, I understand. Real world mechanics.
The show does not have all the time in the world and with 8 people to show off in that limited time frame.
So a match like this they would have had to speed along.
But still, even character and storyline wize...
Jack Evans tapped out like a little *****!! Was not expecting that, or at least for him to get eliminated so quickly and easily.
Granted, I don't watch lucha libre that often.

El Rey has been fantastic so far. Hopefully that will carry over. Maybe we can even get English commentators. |

It was pretty damn fun even though I couldn't understand a word they said. Sad when it went away, I like it much more than CMLL. But that went away, too. Definitely looking forward to the show on El Rey, but it seems like their is no solid info yet. |

Hello lucha fans. Is anyone reading any lucha mags currently, like "Box Y Lucha", "Super Luchas", "Guerreros", or the now defunct, but amazing, AAA specific "Dos De Tres"? I know these aren't the only lucha mags, just the ones I know of. I have wanted to read "Dos De Tres" for awhile, but I have yet to get my hands on them. They are all great magazines to look at (great color photos in some of them), and they can be good to help teach spanish to folks, like me, who want to learn spanish, or just brush up on your spanish vocabulary. Some of these have results, show listings, and talk about the lucha indies, alongside the big 2. They are fairly easy to purchase, as I just go down to my local spanish grocery store and get BYL. The others I am keeping an eye out for, as not all stores get all mags. They are printed in Mexico.
Viva lucha!

For some reason, I saw Del Rio going to AAA coming as soon as he got released. I just thought he would have went there as Del Rio or not as Dos Caras Jr.. I would said it's because Del Rio was unmasked in WWE, but Memo Montenegro was unmasked in WWE and he went to IWRG after his release as el Hijo del Dos Caras masked. I wonder if he'll turn heel and join up with La Sociedad/Legion Extranjera or be babyface and fight off La Sociedad.
