New mural at Dodger Stadium honors Fernando Valenzuela
Nine months after his death, Fernando Valenzuela stands immortalized in a new mural on the loge‑level wall at Dodger Stadium—a vibrant fusion of art and legacy unveiled Saturday. Painted by Mexican American artist Robert Vargas, the mural shows Valenzuela tipping his cap to the sky in a Dodgers Mexican‑heritage jersey — featuring a green sleeve, red sleeve, white center — alongside two striking images of Valenzuela in his pitching stance. Vargas said the mural is meant to symbolize unity within the Latino community. 'I felt it very important to show that the Latino community has a place within these walls and has had a place within these walls,' Vargas said. He wanted to reflect Valenzuela's spirit that still lives in the hearts of many fans and feature the man behind the player. 'What he did in the community, is what resonates so much more for me than just the player — but the man, the person that he was,' Vargas said. Valenzuela played for the Dodgers from 1980-90. He grew up in Etchohuaquila, a small town in Mexico, and took Major League Baseball by storm in 1981, earning rookie of the year and Cy Young honors. Latino fans who previously felt little connection to the Dodgers were thrilled to see one of their own winning, sparking Fernandomania. Valenzuela wore the No. 34 and it remains a popular jersey worn by fans at Dodger Stadium. Claudio Campo choked up as he gazed at the tribute. Traveling from Phoenix with his son to celebrate the boy's 11th birthday, Campo shared memories of a player whose greatness felt deeply personal. Valenzuela's nickname, 'El Toro,' are inked on Campo's left arm. 'He was a staple for the people that didn't have anything and then where he came from showed that anything is possible if you go ahead and revive what you are,' Claudio said. Fans holding Valenzuela bobbleheads given away by the Dodgers took their pictures in front of the new mural Saturday night. Longtime fan Dulce Gonzalez held back emotion as she showed off her shirt with the name 'Valenzuela' written across it, describing the reason she started watching baseball. 'He was the first Latino player I could truly connect with and be proud of,' she said. For Gonzalez, Valenzuela's story resonated because he came from the same roots, offering representation she had longed for. 'We are a melting pot of races here, people love baseball from all races, but because I am Latina, I feel a little bit more connected,' she said. Her son, Nicolas, dressed in a red and green Dodgers Mexican heritage jersey, said Valenzuela helped heal some wounds after Mexican American families were displaced from their homes in Chavez Ravine shortly before Dodger Stadium was built on the same land. 'He really opened the city up to the Dodgers after a long difficult entry and he really represented triumph over adversity,' Nicolas said.

Woman Never Forgot Promise Made to Late Dad—20 Years Later She Fulfils It
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A woman has fulfilled a decades-old promise to her late father with the help of her husband, in a story which has moved thousands of people. Aileen Castañeda-Leibenguth, 29, from Laredo in Texas, grew up with a love of soccer, or fútbol, instilled in her by her father, Juan Castañeda. The father and daughter bonded over their love of the game, which Castañeda—born in the United States but who spent much of his early life in Mexico—had developed a "lifelong passion for" during his youth. "He even played for a club team [in Monterrey, Mexico] in his youth," Castañeda-Leibenguth recalled to Newsweek. Aileen Castañeda-Leibenguth at a game with a photo of her father, Juan Castañeda. Aileen Castañeda-Leibenguth at a game with a photo of her father, Juan Castañeda. Reddit u/Woofles_Fries505 "Later, he returned to the States for work — that's when he met my mom, a Mexican immigrant. They married and built their life together in Laredo, Texas, near the U.S.–Mexico border." He's not alone in his love for the game, with soccer a massively popular sport worldwide. According to a 2025 report from Statista, 89 percent of Brazilians follow the sport, followed by 85 percent in Spain, 84 percent in Britain, and 81 percent in Mexico. When Castañeda-Leibenguth was growing up, she remembers soccer as being "one of the strongest bonds between my dad and me," from playing, practicing and cheering on matches together, particularly during the World Cup. And, watching a match together when she was around seven or eight years old, a promise was made: "One day, we'll go to a World Cup game together—out there, in person." But, as happens, "life got in the way."

"So we continued watching from home, the dream deferred but never forgotten." Tragically, in April 2021, at the age of 53, Castañeda died suddenly from a brain aneurysm, leaving a "deep void" in his family—and the unfulfilled promise "hung heavily" over his daughter. But now, four years after her beloved father's death, Castañeda-Leibenguth finally got to attend an important match—with her father right by her side. In a post to Reddit's r/wholesome sub on July 9 via her account u/Woodles_Fries505, Castañeda-Leibenguth shared a photo of herself at the Concacaf Gold Cup final between Mexico and the United States, which Mexico won by two goals to one. She is beaming at the camera in the stadium filled with thousands of people—and holding a photo of her father. "I took my dad to the match fulfilling a 20+ year promise," she captioned the photo. She explained that she had told her husband, Mark, that she planned to watch the game on TV while he was working out of town. The game was taking place on a Sunday, and her father's birthday was on Monday, which she planned to mark by eating pizza and watching his favorite movies. Castañeda-Leibenguth carries her father's photograph at the game between the USA and Mexico. Castañeda-Leibenguth carries her father's photograph at the game between the USA and Mexico. Reddit u/Woofles_Fries505 But Mark took things into his own hands: he found out the game was taking place in Houston, just a few hours from their home near Dallas, and encouraged his wife to go. "My husband told me to go to the match instead," she wrote. "He convinced me by saying, 'I will be fulfilling the promise and you'll be celebrating his birthday by doing something he loved doing with you.'" And as she put it to Newsweek: "Mark said, 'This is a sign from your dad. Go.' "And I did. I went—for me, for my dad, for that little girl in Laredo who made a promise with love in her heart." Redditors had a huge response to the story, awarding it more than 13,000 upvotes, one moved commenter writing: "I am tearing up. You and your husband are absolutely priceless. Dad absolutely was there with you. Sending you both my love!" "I love this. I know he was right there with you," another said, as another praised her "amazingly thoughtful husband." And as another shared: "Okay, I'm bawling now. This is such a beautiful story and an incredible way to honor your dad's memory. I'm so glad you had that experience. Your husband sounds like an amazing person." Castañeda-Leibenguth said being Mexican-American today can "feel complicated, even painful," but when she was in the stadium, "surrounded by the rhythm of chants, flags, and passion on both sides of the border, I felt proud. "I felt connected. I felt seen. And most of all, I felt my dad there with me. "Promise kept, Dad." Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures you want to share?

Absent WWE Star May Be Sent to Another Promotion: Report
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. WWE Superstar Omos could soon be making his presence felt outside of the company once again. After a successful special run in Japan earlier this year, a new report suggests "The Nigerian Giant" may be heading to Mexico next. According to a report from WrestleVotes, WWE has had internal discussions about sending Omos to Lucha Libre AAA. The potential move would be part of a unique strategy to build him into a global, special attraction. The Plan To Build An Attraction The report from WrestleVotes indicates that WWE wants to mirror the success of Omos's brief but impactful run with Pro Wrestling NOAH this past winter. The goal is to continue to build his aura and mystique outside of the weekly WWE television grind. "WWE creative has discussed sending Omos to AAA for a run, similar to his brief NOAH stint this past winter," the report stated. "Per source, the idea is to further establish him as a true special attraction outside the WWE bubble." More news: WWE News: Steve Austin Reveals Real-Life Vince McMahon Confrontation A Modern Day Giant The "special attraction" is a time-honored tradition in professional wrestling, with the most famous example being the legendary Andre the Giant. These larger-than-life superstars are often booked sparingly to protect their mystique and are presented as unbeatable, must-see forces of nature. WWE's reported strategy with Omos seems to follow this classic booking philosophy. Roman and Seth celebrate in the ring during the WWE show at Zenith Arena on may 09, 2017 in Lille, France.

PHILIPPE HUGUEN/AFP/Getty Images Omos's WWE career has seen him in high-profile spots, including a reign as Raw Tag Team Champion with AJ Styles and major WrestleMania matches against Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar. However, booking a superstar of his immense size on a weekly basis can be a creative challenge. Sending him on special "tours" to other promotions allows him to have dominant performances and build his reputation as a global monster. The potential move to AAA is made possible by the current, thriving partnership between WWE and the Mexican promotion. In recent months, this "forbidden door" relationship has seen an unprecedented talent exchange. WWE's Los Garza are the reigning AAA World Tag Team Champions, and NXT's Lola Vice recently competed on a major AAA show. This collaboration makes the idea of a main roster WWE star like Omos appearing in AAA a very real possibility. Despite his long absence from WWE television—his last match was in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal in April 2024—the company has shown its commitment to the giant. In a recent interview, Omos confirmed that he had signed a new multi-year contract with WWE and has been training hard for his return. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports
