Mistico confirms COVID-19 diagnosis.
Unfortunately, 2021 has started off on a sour note for CMLL’s Mistico as the Luchador confirmed on his personal Instagram page that he has tested positive for COVID-19.
This iteration of Mistico has been in existence since 2012 when the original person playing the character went to WWE to portray the Sin Cara character and now wrestles in Mexico as Caristico.
In his post, he references the symptoms that he is currently feeling which include headaches, aches in his bones, and chills.

There wasn’t a worse way that I could say bye to the year other than testing positive for COVID-19. Hopefully, these discomforts end soon. God bless you all and take care of yourselves. My friends, this is crazy. Bags under my eyes, headaches, my bones hurt, chills, weight loss. And I want to say to all of my friends, who are checking up on me that I am well. And to my family, I love you for supporting me always. But I will say that I am scared knowing that this virus that has killed many people is now in my body. But I am a fighter and it will not defeat me. It will be one more challenge in my life. A fight vs COVID-19.
Unfortunately, the Lucha world suffered a loss due to the virus recently as the wife of Damian 666 and mother of Bestia 666 passed away recently after battling the disease. Learn more at this link.
