WWE Takes The mask Off El Generico (Photo)
 

El Generico worked Thursday night’s WWE NXT live event under his real name as Rami Sebal. We have a photo in his ring gear below:

wow, he's got the look alright. WWF champion within weeks.

sorry WWE, get the F out! I see Spilchuck isnt a shithead anymore.

Not a shithead?!?!?

I don't see how he can make it looking like that. Give him the mask and the gimmick back please.

Looks like a giant Seth Green

nope

CHANGE IS BAD

Disaster. El Generico could have been the next much better Santino

Now he's the next Hornswoggle.

Sheamus's brother?

So he's Daniel Bryan Danielson Bryanson with a better beard?

He sucked with the mask, he sucks now. No difference. Stop hiring vanilla midgets.

He is definitely the product of rape. He shoulda been aborted.

I agree with Shisen.

Doesn't do him any favours with a massive poster of Mason Ryan behind him

Why the hell did they hire him? They already tried the retard gimmick once. At least Eugene wasn't a soulless ginger. WWE failed on that one. Feed him to THE RYBACK and future endeavor him.

I gotta admit I'd love to see Generico and Ryback. No body can sell like Generico

This was the best the indys had to offer?

Him and William Regal should have an Iron Man submission match on Raw.

Goddamn Cena killing rating!

Pretty much, and you wonder why nobody cares about wrestling anymore

You guys are being very negative.

I'm "positive" that he's a vanilla midget. Does that count?

A little. But it's not really in the spirit of positivity. Your words are positive but your energy is negative.

Threads like this are why I don't care to participate in the IWC very much. Christ.

Just shut ROH down. Nothing good has ever come from it.

Pretty sure we got the same kinda thread about Rollins/Ambrose/Walker when they debuted because those weren't the names they had on the Indies and they all surprised us.

I mean he's no Bo Dallas but I say lets give him a chance.

Was that positive enough Supreme?

It's the "Adequate" Era.

I'm normally one of the people that supports the indy's but from that picture that man with that gimmick will never amount to more than Yoshi Tatsu's status in the WWE right now.

Give him the mask and gimmick and he can be a star for kids on Saturday Morning Slam.

I love El Generico, one of my favorites in the indy scene...and that is where he should have stayed...WWE isn't for everyone.

I'll be positive here. His beard is very beardy.

PrettyCool would be jealous

We sure are making a lot of assumptions based on a couple photos of not too much in particular.

is that not what the internet is all about?

That's not good enough. People will bitch that he should be the face of the company.

He's certainly got an "average guy" look that could make him a sympathetic babyface or annoying heel. I think wearing a mask would have initial benefits for Generico, but I guess the WWE has plans to use him otherwise.

never saw him with the mask.....guy needs to wax his legs or wear longer tights.....

it looks terrible.... I am all about the little things.....

Yeahhhhhhh. No buys.

He looks like Christian's runt ginger brother.

vs Sheamus in a Ginger Off for the InterGinger Title = licence to print money

I can honestly see Generico not coming into WWE until Mysterio comes back. He shows up, sans mask, and is really enthusiastic about meeting Rey. Saying he's always wanted to meet him and it was his dream to be like him...

Rey is like "A WWE Superstar?"

Remi is like "No, a Luchadore!"

Rey and Sin Cara face 3MB or someone and the numbers start bearing down on them when, suddenly, Ginairyco (or however WWE decides to spell it for trademark purposes) comes down the aisle and evens the odds.

Basically, have it where Remi admits to being Ginairyco, but has psychological some thing where if he doesn't have the mask on, he isn't able to wrestle to his full abilities. And Mysterio and Sin Cara don't like him wearing the mask at first, but eventually accept him.

That was an incredibly half-assed Noid post...

Kane could break Rey Mysterio's back forcing him to retire and then El Generico can take over the mantle.

He should challenge Rey/Cara to a Mask vs. Mask Match only for them to point out he doesn't wear a mask, to which he replies that he could.

"We all wear masks... metaphorically speaking"

Mild mannered Remi then finds a mask in Randy Orton's bag and when he wears it he transforms into an insufferable prick.

I think Remi fighting to earn the mask would get him over. He's just a guy trying to earn the right to be what he always dreamed of being. If that doesn't get over with the crowd, nothing EVER will.

Are you serious?

Shitty name for a shitty wrestler.

Jesus, why didn't they just name him Brian and then have him kill himself?

Should have at least called him Justin Sane. Gone with the pun.

Semi-Sane

Pretty horrible name unless they use ti to play off some sort of "Festus"-like character where he's sane most of the time and then becomes insane when something is triggered.

With Festus it was as simple as having a bell be rung.

Festus, you mean. Festus =/= Fetus

Festus was at one time a fetus, but that is besides the point here.

I think a "Fetus"-like character could get over huge in WWE.

Do you know how many E-Wrestlers would be pissed the fuck off?

At least a dozen.

I'd have preferred Sammy Satan, as a reference to Sammy "Satan" Duet of Acid Bath, Crowbar, and Goat Whore

True, I think I've come across several E-Wrestlers named "Justin Sane" back in the day.... and they probably would all claim that WWE was copying them.

Justin Bred would be a more fitting name for someone looking like that.

I wonder what his gimmick is going to be as Sammy Sane. It's not a name you'd give a guy if there wasn't going to be something going on there. Maybe he likes being beaten up or something? A jobber that enjoys being a jobber.

I still think the mask is the best way to go.

Maybe he's a jobber with multiple personality disorder. One of his personalities is a Luchadore who is the only one than can manage to win a match?

Might just be trying to get him over without the mask to see if he can get over on his own. Like it or not, the mask does limit him in the WWE. Rey and Kane are really the only hugely successful masked wrestlers in WWE history.

That's essentially what I think they're doing. They want to know if he can get over without the mask. They can always repackage him if they see fit.

He does remind me a lot of Christian. There's something quirky about him that I think could connect with people.

Apparently the fans were chanting "Ole!" during his match. They should probably debut Generico alongside Sane and do whatever they can to get Sane over, but also keep Generico as an on-air character. The commentators could even speculate that they are the same guy and that Sane is actually insane. I mean wasn't the whole fun with Generico that he was a Canadian pretending to be a luchador?

I would dress him up in all red and white, give him a maple leaf mask and call him Captain Canada. He would be the greatest Canadian superhero of all time. The best part about it is that after he loses to just a regular USA #1 rassler and gets hurt he can be like "we have free health care eh?"
