A well-known Mexican wrestler who co-starred in the 2006 movie Nacho Libre has died of a suspected heart attack after collapsing on stage in the UK.
Cesar Cuauhtemoc Gonzalez Barron, the lucha libre star known as Silver King, performed on Saturday night (Sunday NZ time) at The Roundhouse in London.
The venue said in a tweet on Sunday that he died during the event and more information about the circumstances were being pursued.
Gonzalez, 51, appeared as a champion wrestler and comic villain in Nacho Libre, which starred US actor Jack Black as a monk who wants to be a masked luchador.
