I can't wait for the Del rio vs Sin Cara feud. Where del rio's lucha family history will be exposed and he will change his name back to Dos Caras
Dos Caras vs Sin Cara

That's how heel turns work, bro.

Please cite an example of this exact approach being used by someone to turn heel before. 'Cause even the ultra-subtle slow burn turn by Jericho against HBK had instances of Y2J making off-hand critical comments about Michaels before later downplaying them.

That would be an excellent feud. If they had kept Del Rio on Smackdown, I could see them fishing something toward Sin Cara giving him fits and then getting some sort of title shot later in the year (assuming Del Rio would be WHC). Would be better than Orton and his lousy dip in ratings.
 
It's pretty damn funny to see some people keep on saying "Sin Botcha" when that name translates into the opposite of what those people are intending to say.

That's actually pretty interesting.

Also add me to the Sin Cara vs. Alberto match "I want to see this" club.

Surely not!.......*uses the oh so reliable google translator*
Holy crap! We've all been swerved!

Personally I have no problem with Sin Cara, i'm sure he'll find his footing shortly.

does Juventud Geurerro still wrestle. I wonder if he is in better shape than Rey.

Yeah he still does, although according to wiki he get fired from AAA for accusing Konnan of shitting in his bag and starting a fight.

Maybe that's why he didn't last in the WWE. Bag shitting is rewarded there.

Yeh, I'm sure he will get there soon. Going straight from Lucha to WWE without the safety net of learning in FCW is a pretty hard thing to do.

After the oh so loyal internet people summarily forgot about Bryan in favour of the likes of Zack Ryder, it's nice to see him getting a push. My guess - it'll be with Cody, and it will be awesome.

More like they saw his booking situation and saw little reason to hope for much, same with Ziggler and creatives horrid decision to undo his character.
canadian crowe said:
I kind of wish they would do something a little different with his personality. His entrance is pretty bland, so at least spruce it up a little bit. I want his robe back, and Japanese style streamers. They should play up that he was an international wrestler.

I like him despite him botching... alot. Also his attire should be recolored and mask should be replaced. Mood lighting needs to go as well. Should point more often.
 
i saw the botch sin cara had on the latest botchmania with chavo and on the recent smackdown where chavo couldn't even stay in the center of the ring with that la mistica variant. i blame chavo for both times, i don't recall him doing anything impressive in wcw or wwe. im sure eddie would have pulled off the moves perfectly.

is the AAA/TNA event a pay per view? is there anyway i could order it in the US?

When he's not in the ring, the announcers should ask, "where's Sin Cara?"
 
Whatever you guys are saying about the botches, which Im sure is not many, that guy has kickass moves.

And Randy---don't ruin that baby face! Shave!

Keep the beard it's the only interesting thing about him.

Christian has already done the "I'm ignoring you and getting out of the ring, no wait I'm getting back in and shaking your hand", it will continue from there.
 
Punk/Hardy's not entirely dissimilar. It'll be pretty much the same if Christian shoots on Randy's tendency to shit in bags and trash hotel rooms.

Yeah, the no handshake->Reluctant handshake thing tends to either be the start of a heel turn, or a heel turn altogether, with the guy who is turning heel attacking the face after/during the handshake.

Very rarely does it amount to nothing.
 
Man,

The Rock, Stone Cold and Jericho. The three most exciting entertainers in the last 15 years, and they all can pick and choose when they can leave the WWE.

LoL @ him trolling on the Miz.

And too bad he's not coming back soon. One of the true multi-faceted entertainers.

A primed Kurt Angle could make Zeke Jackson and Randy Orton look good.

Sin Cara doesn't necessarily need to talk. What's wrong with him not speaking? Let's not act like Rey is some top notch mic worker. Really, he's better off not saying anything. He's not Del Rio, Eddie, or even Chavo.

Greatest slow line ever.

Translate? What the fuck you talking about? I'm speaking ENGLISH, dude. No need to translate Botch-a.

Because Rey in his prime hasn't done near the amount that Sin Cara has. And now that he's fat ass Rey, he does even less.

Though it's funny you shit on all these Mexican wrestlers that come in, but praise all the African American wrestlers, even the ones that are terrible, like MVP. Racist.
Click to expand...
These? Name others. I never shit on Rey, Juvy, Super Crazy, etc.
 
Just heard the Averno news and watched the match with Mistico. It's amazing how much more charisma he showed as Mistico. He played to the crowd more too. I think it also helps to be able to see his eyes through his mask, where as his mask as Sin Cara you can't see anything.

to people who want orton to turn heel again, how'd you go about doing that since he's currently a huge face on SD?
Click to expand...
Prefer Christian to go heel really. Orton is as boring as a heel than he is face, and let's be honest, I doubt we see the better worker go over though he should.

They tried that with Austin right after Wrestlemania when he turned and joined Mcmahon, he even beat the shit out of JR and still got cheered.
Click to expand...

Damn, you're right.

Um...okay, yeah. It's impossible. I mean, short of RKO'ing a diva, and even then I'm not so sure.
 
He's punted guys as "heinous" acts, DDT'd Stephanie McMahon which made Triple H look like a slobbering pitbull, and look how long the fans cared. Now he punts guys he gets cheered for it, and guys on commentary practically parade it.

Only way I would want him to be a top heel is if WWE, for once in three or so years, will push a young guy into the main event scene as a FACE. And for Orton to put him over like he and other guys like Cena should be doing.

Point of a heel isn't that he's the enemy of other characters; it's that he's the enemy of the crowd. It's easy to cheap heat your way to heeldom; all he has to do is come out on RAW tonight, interrupting Cena's soliloquoy to the armed forces, and cut a simple promo starting with "You know, I ducked out of the Marines for a reason!".
