Andres Palomeque, better known as Abismo Negro in AAA, was apparently found dead in a river in Mexico. He was 37.
We don't have other news other than a couple of wrestlers in the AAA promotion confirmed the story, but knew no details.
Palomeque was also known as Winners, a masked male dancer, who teamed with Super Calo during the early glory days of the AAA promotin. At the second year's first TripleMania show, Winners formed a trio with Rey Misterio and Rey Misterio Jr., and lost his mask in a feud with Calo in 1995.
He became Abismo Negro in 1997, and was on the 1997 Royal Rumble show in San Antonio that drew 60,000 fans to the Alamo Dome and wrestled on a few episodes of Raw that year.
He also worked as part of Team Mexico in the 2004 World X cup tournament for TNA.
Throughout his career he was plagued by drug problems, and had a reputation for no-showing events.
