La Parkita

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia


La Parkita was the ring name of Alberto Pérez Jiménez, a Mexican luchador enmascarado (masked professional wrestler). He was best known for his work in the lucha libre style of wrestling, which is characterized by colorful masks, rapid sequences of holds and maneuvers, as well as "high-flying" moves.

Career[edit | edit source]

La Parkita began his wrestling career in the early 1990s, adopting the persona of a mini version of the popular wrestler La Parka. He was part of the Mini-Estrella division, which features wrestlers of shorter stature. La Parkita gained popularity for his energetic performances and his ability to connect with the audience.

Death[edit | edit source]

On June 26, 2010, La Parkita was tragically murdered in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. He and his fellow wrestler Espectrito II were found dead in a hotel room. The cause of death was determined to be asphyxiation, and it was reported that they were victims of a robbery by two women who had drugged them.

Legacy[edit | edit source]

La Parkita is remembered as a beloved figure in the lucha libre community. His contributions to the sport, particularly in the Mini-Estrella division, have left a lasting impact on fans and fellow wrestlers alike.
