The following is from Dave Meltzer at www.F4WOnline.com:
Brothers Roberto and Alejandro Mejia, who wrestled as La Parkita (I think the original from AAA 15 years ago, not the one on AAA in recent years) and Espectro II, were both found dead near Arena Coliseo yesterday in a hotel room. The police believe they went to Room 52 of Hotel Moderno with two prostitutes at 6 p.m. Sunday night. The manager went to the room on Monday when they hadn't checked out, nobody answered the door, and when they opened the door to clean the room, both bodies were found in bed and were dead. The belief is they were drugged and robbed by the prostitutes, as none of their belongings were found. Both were 35. They are both younger brothers of the original Espectrito, who was the superstar mini with Mascara Sagrada from the early days of AAA. La Parkita had wrestled in the U.S. with CHIKARA
Well this is just insane. When I saw this headline it immediately caught my eye. Obviously these two men were not mainstream names, but what happened to them is still deeply saddening, as is the loss of any human life, especially in such a gruesome manner.
We forget sometimes that wrestlers and celebrites are people too, and that people are as susceptible to a tragic fate as the rest of us.
R.I.P. for the both of them.
