The bout’s promoter claimed that the event raised approximately $4000, though a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman wasn’t too happy with Super Mojado’s entry into the ring:
"When we went into that factory we sought to group workers according to their status — we segregated U.S. citizens, people who had green cards and then people who did not have any appropriate authorization," [ICE spokeswoman Virginia Kice] said.
"But we would not refer to anybody in that vernacular — that's not an appropriate term," she continued. "It's like so many things associated with professional wrestling — it's all hyperbole and myth."
Super Mojado and INS sound like "a tasteless exploitive publicity stunt," she said.
