Wow, I saw the match, freak injury is almost an understatement. Rey just dropkicked him into the ropes to setup the 619 like he has a million other times. But Aguayo Jr.'s neck was very close to the rope already when the impact was made. And the other guy (Manik?) gets a drop toe hold and lands on the the ropes right next to Aguayo Jr. to setup the double 619. Which Rey doesn't even hit, he kicks right over both of their heads. So it was one of those two impacts (probably the first), though neither looked particularly unusual. There was a lack of awareness by the ref and everyone involved which allowed the match to go on longer, and the rope bounced around more against his neck, but who knows if that made a difference. And it's easy to say in retrospect, all of those guys have surely been in matches where people get knocked out for a bit and the match continues on.

I'll go ahead and post the youtube link, it's not graphic, but it's disturbing in the sense that a man is killed in it.
