Indie Wrestler SoCal Crazy Passes Away At Age 47

SoCal Crazy, real name Nestor Bustos, has passed away at the age of 47.

The wrestling community lost another gem when the news of Nestor’s death was first shared on Wednesday, September 30. He lost a battle to colon cancer, which he was first diagnosed with in 2022.

SoCal Pro Wrestling noted on Facebook that Bustos was surrounded by family and loved ones when he passed.

SoCal Crazy was a staple of California’s indie wrestling scene for his entire career, often sharing the ring with names like B-Boy, Peter Avalon, Scorpio Sky, and Tommy Wilson. He primarily wrestled for promotions like Empire Wrestling Federation, SoCal Pro, and Alternative Wrestling Show.

In a courageous and inspiring move, SoCal Crazy continued to wrestle after his cancer diagnosis, taking part in nearly fifty matches after receiving the news. His last match saw him team with El Mexica to face The Lucha Kings (Bamboo & El Rey) at a SoCal Pro Wrestling event in June.

There is an ongoing GoFundMe page where you can donate funds to support his wife, Khai Karma, who is currently battling an autoimmune disease.

Fightful would like to take a moment to send our best wishes to the friends and family of SoCal Crazy during this difficult time.
