I was at the card in Omaha on June 12th when Alberto & Ellis defended their Midwest Tag Team titles against Ox Baker and Ali Ben Khan. The next day, Alberto & Ellis wrestled in the small Nebraska town of Vertigree against Baker & The Claw.<br /><br />It is often misstated that Baker's Heart Punch was what caused the death of Torres, but from I've been told it was another move that lead to Alberto's injury that would later take his live. The move came when Baker was holding Alberto in a full nelson and The Claw came of the turnbuckle (either the 2nd or top. Claw landed on Alberto's chest, which caused internal injuries that lead to Alberto's death.<br /><br />Torres spent several days in the hospital before passing away.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979001148668952814noreply@blogger.com
