Puerto Rican Star Cuervo Hit With Concrete Block; Taken To Hospital
Scary incident in Mexico.
At the Lucha Libre Boom/Lucha Memes/Generación XXI show on Nov. 19, Puerto Rican star Cuervo was blindsided by a concrete block thrown by Angel o Demonio. Demonio was in the ring and tossed the block at Cuervo, who was outside the ring with his back turned to Demonio.
On the +Lucha stream of the LLB/Lucha Memes show, Angel o Demonio threw a brick at the back of Cuervo (of Puerto Rico)’s head when he clearly had no idea it was coming. Cuervo was knocked out, regained consciousness quickly after. pic.twitter.com/uCrP2EntjC

Cuervo was taken to the hospital for X-Rays. Luchablog reports that Cuervo’s being evaluated by doctors, but no decision has been made on what they will do next.
Angel o Demonio posted on FaceBook that “sadly, these things happen” and alluded to this being a receipt for hard chair shots delivered by Cuervo earlier in the match. “If we count the chair shots to my back…I’ll leave it at this,” he posted.
Cuervo is a former five-time WWC Tag Team Champion and had been touring with International Wrestling Revolution Group in Mexico.
