In a recent interview with The Laredo Morning Times, Laredo Kid opened up on undergoing emergency surgery following a recent Lucha Libre AAA event.

“As I ended my fight with Vikingo, I had to be transported to San Vicente Hospital immediately and had to receive emergency surgery, as one of my intestines had become ruptured during the fight. It has been the toughest battle I have ever fought in my career and life.

After being hospitalized for 9 days and fighting for my life, I want to tell everybody that I am back, I am back at my house with my family and my children and it is thanks to all of you, and all of my Laredo fanaticos that I am better, because you all sent your well wishes, vibes, and prayers. I really want to thank you all for always wanting to stay updated about my condition, and I especially want to thank my company, Lucha Libre AAA who were always looking to check how I was doing.

There is still a lot of trajectory, and the journey still continues for Laredo Kid in effort to be fully recuperated. I do expect to count on all of the support from you, my Laredo fanaticos, so you guys can see the eagle of Rio Bravo back in action.”
