Alberto Del Rio
 
What do you think of the mask-less Dos Caras Jr?

Xero 07-04-2010 07:35 PM

Did he debut?

BizarroKing 07-04-2010 07:42 PM

No but so far two promos have aired for him

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heyYIGS2tLs 1st promo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e44ApRuVelI 2nd promo

Anybody Thrilla 07-04-2010 07:46 PM

The promos are interesting enough. Not really sure what they're trying to do with him, but it seems better than Kizarny.

Madness42 07-04-2010 07:51 PM

The second one was really well done. It was pretty long, but he still managed to deliver all his lines perfectly. Looks like a hard-worker, and that's always good.

XCaliber 07-04-2010 07:51 PM

After the first promo I was all of a sudden reminded of Salvadore Sincere.

VSG 07-04-2010 08:07 PM

I still dont know how "honesty" and "inspiration" can be a gimmick.

Mooияakeя™ 07-04-2010 08:12 PM

He's just missing some "arrogance"

He's being built as a generic bad guy. Everyone in the crowd is a liar, or boring. They're probably also going to be poor and stupid in the next couple weeks.

Nicky Fives 07-04-2010 09:32 PM

I'd be willing to put money on it that he hooks up with Vickie Guerrero to get him instantly over like they tried to do with Eric Escobar.... bank on it.....

But they already have Dolphin hooking up with her apparently.

Gotta admit, kinda digging it.

Really, I kinda expected him to say at the end of the first promo "I'm not telling you anything you dont already know" :shifty:

Dos Caras Jr was one of the best wrestlers in Mexico, hopefully they play that up upon his debut.

WWE will fuck his debut up.

Juan 07-04-2010 11:41 PM

Thanks for letting me know, now I don't have to waste time watching it.

LOL! Now that you mention it, he might be the world's most interesting wrestler.

Juan 07-05-2010 01:01 AM

Here is Del Rio getting KO'd by Cro cop (@ around the 4:15 mark)

ya i'll get back to you after i see him rassle somebody.

DLVH84 07-05-2010 01:21 AM

I think it's a disgrace that WWE forced Dos Caras, Jr. to take off his mask.

Schlomey 07-05-2010 01:39 AM

him wrestling some dude in a non-wwe ring is not going to help me decide if I like him or not. Same for Kaval.

Juan 07-05-2010 01:44 AM

FCW = WWE

Juan 07-05-2010 01:47 AM

in fact, the ring they use in FCW is a WWE ring.

He didn't have to take the job and there are more places to make money in Mexico than in America.

It's more of one that WWE 'forced' Rey Misterio to put his back on.

Exactly what I was thinking. Ala the angel on the shoulder to O'Haire's devil.

I actually really like it, and I think that the gimmick (from the little I've seen) has some legs to it. I've never seen him wrestle, but I think he's gonna have a shot.

He's been working dark matches for months now, and the last two guys who were consistently in dark matches pre-roster (Sheamus, Drew McIntyre) did just fine.

SlickyTrickyDamon 07-05-2010 02:59 AM

I was actually waiting for him to say that they cheat on their taxes. :shifty:

Wonder if this guy will ever have a Honest Man Vs. Truth match with R-Truth.

Mr. Nerfect 07-05-2010 04:18 AM

I will wait to see him in a ring. He's apparently a good talent. He's got a tremendous look to him. There's nothing offensive about his gimmick so far. He is a "man of quality," and that is meant to get him heel heat, I guess. I just haven't been hooked in yet. I'd like more of a "story" about this guy. Maybe that he is a trained MMA, and comes from one of the most celebrated wrestling families in Mexico. His dark match gimmick apparently got him wild heat.

Mr. Nerfect 07-05-2010 04:49 AM

Yeah, I've decided I like the guy in the ring.

Providence Peep 07-05-2010 07:40 AM

If he's the only real honest man, why does he keep claiming his name is Alberto Del Rio? :)
Anyway, I'm eager to see him competing in the WWE (especially against Rey Mysterio). It's kind of cool that he's got luchadore blood in him, being the son of Dos Caras and nephew of Mil Mascaras, but that (unlike most luchadores) he's strictly a technical wrestler with training in Greco-Roman wrestling.

Yeah, after WCW forced him to take off his mask.

The mask is a one-way street in Mexico. If it comes off, it doesn't go back on. That pisses off their audience a great deal. A week or so after he lost the mask at the PPV, he lost a mask vs. mask match in Tijuana, IIRC. The fans more or less shit on him for wearing the mask for that match.

I've often bitched about him wearing the mask again, long before it became hip to hate Misterio.

The Gold Standard 07-05-2010 08:19 PM

I am not sold on him with his promos yet. However, there were very few I have been sold on after the opening promos. The only ones that worked for me were Cryme Tyme.

Triple Naitch 07-05-2010 08:35 PM

Didn't even realize that was him. He's solid on the mic. Looking forward to seeing him wrestle.
