Mil Mascaras to the WWE Hall of Fame
<font color=goldenrod>Was posted in 100,000 Replies but it probably warrants its own thread. Mil Mascaras was announced as the first inductee into the 2012 WWE Hall of Fame. Announced for his class even earlier than Shawn Michaels, who was announced in like January.
Rarely hear a good word about him but he's been around for ages so I guess it makes sense. If you were gonna pick a strictly lucha libre person to go in it'd have to be him. Pretty sure the timing of his induction is part of the continued effort to expand into Mexico more than anything else though.</font> |
Is El Santo in yet? If not, he should be in before Mil.

Mil also competed pretty reguarlarly in the WWWF in the late 70's at The Garden
|
he competed at the 97 Royal Rumble...where if I remember correctly...he eliminated himself.
|
SOunds like an asshole from all thebooks he has been mentioned in, but the guy is a fucking god in Mexico.
|
And he was the very first wrestler allowed to wrestle with his mask on at MSG.
|
Suprised he wasnt in sooner after they expanded the HOF to guys outwith the company,definately deserves to be in it.

Congrats to Blue Demon Jr.

Congrats to the guy who owes his career to the fact that they couldn't get El Santo for a movie.

Mil just being Mil. Hansen I think you have to knock the shit out of him for him to feel it, let alone sell it. And Brody is like "Fuck this shit." 2. Hansen and Brody could have easily just straight up beat the shit out of Mil for no selling. Due to his status in Mexico, they let him get away with quite a bit. |
