Lucha Libre legend and Red Alerts favorite Psicosis, A.K.A. Dionicio Castellanos Torres, was “deported” in April due to a paperwork snafu. I use the term deported loosely because Torres was only deported in the most technical sense.

Psicosis has been working in the American independents for years and had several successful stints with the “Big Three” wrestling promotions of the 90s including working for the legendary ECW twice, where he developed his cult following in the States. He was working for the WWE until he was released in 2006 and since that time has been wrestling mainly in Mexican promotions.

Sometime in April he tried to enter the United States to work a show but came with a tourist visa. Border Enforcement denied him entry and sent him to get the right paper work. That’s it. That’s the story.

Lords of Pain are milking the story, implying he got picked up jumping the border which isn’t the case. E.O.S. is questioning whether Psicosis’ 2006 run in with the Federales played a part in his being denied entry.

All I know is I hope a solid performer like Dionicio Castellanos Torres can get his work visa and come to our great nation legally.

Since everyone knows Saturday is Lucha Libre day I’ll post this video of Torres from the ECW in a match against Yoshihiro Tajiri:
