Hector Garza passed away Sunday due to lung cancer (or complications from it.) He's 43.

He'd been a smoker. They found the cancer last fall and it was pretty far along. It's still so quick - he is/was national heavyweight championship and there are current AAA storylines that clearly had been designed with Garza as part of it. It's very sad.

I have a semi-coherent obit on my blog. It may get better later on.

Garza was one of my favorite WCW luchadores in '97/'98 or thereabouts; that corkscrew plancha from the top rope onto the floor (hitting several other wrestlers on the way down) was always a highlight of Nitro, in my opinion.

RIP.

Was there a lot of excitment last year? I had actually forgotten until just now that last year's match WAS a Triple Threat, and not just Benoit over Triple H by submission. Usually aren't we all against triple threat matches as main events?
