Personal Thoughts: Was Lyguila the best member of Los Kamikazes??? The world may never truly know. A trainee of Villano IV, Lyguila was a highlight of every match he was part of, whether it be the Kamikazes vs. Insectos rivalry in AAA or any of his CMLL Japan appearances. He was probably the most physically talented Kamikazes member outside of Tobikage and his gear was easily my favorite of the whole bunch. After Los Kamikazes died with Goku's retirement and LLJ's birth, Lyguila went back to Mexico, working in IWRG sporadically until 2003. He actually returned to wrestling in the late 2000s for a handful of Mr. Cacao's Fukumen MANIA shows, and although we don't have any footage from his return run (for now), I've read that he was once again a highlight of every match he took part in. Godspeed you Lyguila, wherever you are nowadays.
