The two men wrestled throughout Mexico and the United States, and like wrestlers from the the US you see on television, used various costumes and personae… just as in the US WFW… all the men (and women) taking on some role of action figure or mythological character.

These two particular men were murdered in order to gain the money they'd just won. The women approached them, saying they would have a sexual liaison with the men, and the women with intent, purposely put a heart-stopping substance into the men's drinks.

The men in wrestling, as one sees in the US (I am not a fan, but am interested in how MANY men in the US are fascinated with wrestling) are revered by many, and when one or more fall, as in the US, there is mourning… whether the wrestler in the case of one in the US took their own lives or overdosed on self-administered drugs.

Wrestling world is another culture altogether. I dont pretend to understand it. I just know there is huge ritual to it. And in death, these two men will be honored for their abilities to fight in the ring, not over the way they were murdered.

Thanks Joe W.

How about (the) Society (for the) Protection (of) Optionally-Dimensioned Entertainers: (SPODE) ??

What right-thinking person would not wish to raise money for SPODE ??

I think we need a group to focus international attention on this (undoubtedly under-reported) problem.

Let's see: Midget Mexicans ? Too broad.
Midget Mexican Wrestlers' Protective League ? Kind of wordy.
Society for the Suppression of Fake Prostitutes ? I dunno…

C'mon folks ! Help me out here, so we can start collecting contributions !
