When will they unmask Rey Mysterio?
 
They'll do it soon enough. Ideas?

SuperSlim 08-23-2004 06:57 PM

they have too. We already seen him in WCW. why not in WWE?

Head 08-23-2004 06:59 PM

I'd like Mysterio to keep the mask. It gives him a distinct idenity, and is great for marketing.

Sickboy 08-23-2004 07:00 PM

Been there, done that, why bother again?

Innovator 08-23-2004 07:00 PM

his mask is pretty much his trademark. Losing his mask in WCW was horrible as he became just another dude.

Yeah it's an easy storyline to write but the payoff could and would kill Mysterio in the WWE.

I thought they were gonna unmask the Ultimo Dragon?

Dragon? Mysterio? Who cares? I mean, who can really make a difference between the two? Both are small and use a mask, no one can remember which is Mysterio and which Dragon, right? :roll:


Btw, this is probably how Vince thinks

it's easy, one trips over his cape, one doesn't

*hides from Funky*

Lara Emily 08-23-2004 07:10 PM

Hopefully never again.

The Naitch 08-23-2004 07:10 PM

Don't worry, Funky trips like Ultimo all the time. Especially in public.

Would the Mexicans get pissed off again or would it not be as bad this time?

The Naitch 08-23-2004 07:13 PM

Can't believe he took it off for those Tough Enough fuckers.

Actually, that gives me an idea...

If they have Ultimo Dragon come back without his mask and end up winning some key victories, maybe winning the cruiserweight championship. Then he's all cocky and says it was because that ever since he chose to take off the Ultimo mask that he's earned all this success.

Insert Mysterio who usedto be Ultimo's 'friend' or whatever. Who brings up references to the tradition of the mask. Ultimo keeps trying to get Mysterio to take off his mask. Then he turns violent and attacks Mysterio but still cannot manage to get the mask off. (Something like he pulls off one mask only to reveal a second mask. Then he pulls off the second mask only to reveal a third. Then mysterio recovers and gets away)

Then they have a match with the stips... If Mysterio loses then he must take off his mask... but then Mysterio can cut a promo saying that if he wins then Ultimo must go back to the mask and save all these fans from having to see his ugly face every week. Then have the cruiser title on the line as well. A good PPV match that will draw for Smack Down.

If the WWE is dead set on having Rey lose his mask then this would the be the best angle for it.

Funky Fly 08-23-2004 07:14 PM

Oh, yeah, let's all make fun of the moderator and his favourite active wrestler. :mad:

The Naitch 08-23-2004 07:17 PM

I'd like to see Spike vs Rey. Title vs. Mask. Of course, it would be a tease, and Rey would win the title back.

Gerard 08-23-2004 07:23 PM

Why would they want to unmask him? He looks like a 15 year old thats still waiting on puberty beginning without it ffs. :wtf:

The Naitch 08-23-2004 07:24 PM

^^^ youre an idiot

Funky Fly 08-23-2004 07:32 PM

Unmasking works on lower card masked wrestlers who are about to be pushed to the moon (ie. Juventud Guerrera before he became a junkie).

And they were all shocked, too.

They should have based eliminations on whether they said "Yeah, I know what you look like. I watched you for, like, two years without it in WCW."

.44 Magdalene 08-23-2004 08:11 PM

Rey would lose alot of his cool factor if he took off the mask...kinda like Kane did. He'd just look like another guy. Have his own personality? Yeah. But the awesome look would be gone. There's not alot of masked guys left on TV these days.

Innovator 08-23-2004 08:21 PM

the thing is Kane is one of the big men left in the WWE, take away his mask and he's still one of the big men, and a big guy who can go in the ring.

You take away Rey's mask, he's another cruiserweight who will get buried.

Quick1 08-23-2004 08:29 PM

It was good for Kane when he got unmasked until Shane came along.

I dunno. Vince seems to like Rey, even though he is one of the smallest guys on the roster... which would typically go against his logic.

Rey has the mask because it makes him distinctive, just like Foley first had his mask when he arrived as Cactus Jack because, I recall from Have a Nice Day, because it helps distinguish from the competition.... and because it looks cool.

Who's your favorite active wrestler??? It can't be Ultimo, because he isn't wrestling. :D ..... :-\ ......... :'(


I miss Ultimo.

MVP 08-23-2004 09:46 PM

Unmasking didn't really work for Psicosis, or Rey the first time he did it, so why would he do it again?

Corkscrewed 08-23-2004 10:44 PM

...when they run out of ways to assfuck the Cruiserweight Division

Mayo 08-24-2004 12:22 AM

Keep the mask on, it is his identity so far. It would be a huge waste if he took it off, IMO.

He's wrestling just not in the WWE. I say my favourite active wrestler, because Bret Hart is my favourite overall, but he's retired.

100% agreed.

Mysterio just isn't Mysterio without his unique masks.

So pretty soon then?

Dave Youell 08-24-2004 07:53 AM

Have Dragon and Rey have a mask Vs Mask series of matches. At least that way we get some shit hot wrestling out of it

SuperSlim 08-24-2004 08:57 AM

well really I would say keep the mask on. Who would Rey be without it? Another Spike Dudley cept with a lot more high flying moves... kinda.

Mordecai1 08-25-2004 09:51 PM

Did'nt Chavo say he was going to unmask him?

Eunos 08-26-2004 01:07 PM

Never hopefully :/

deathtrap 08-26-2004 02:14 PM

Mask vs Mask. Kidman vs Rey

Mister Sinister 08-26-2004 03:41 PM

When Rey runs out of Marvel and DC characters to dress like at Wrestlemania's

Disturbed316 08-26-2004 04:23 PM

They better not, he looked a complete twat without his mask in WCW.

That's because he looks like Michael Jackson, and single handedly made WCW unsafe for kids.
