As a child his brother scared him one Halloween with a lucha mask. Ever since then he has a hatred for all face-covering items.

Easy E obviously subscribes to the theory that everyone wears a mask, metaphorically speaking...no need for the physical mask then.

Wasn't it actually Kane's idea to get rid of the mask?

I'm sure I read it somewhere that Kane said in an interview that he got rid of the mask because he couldn't breathe properly with it on and that he wanted to show more emotions and he couldn't really do that if he had a mask as most emotions are portrayed through the eyes.

agreed. Him not able to breath properly is the reason he changed it in 2002 to have the mouth/nose open

Why?

Eazy E was a cool motherfucker, in spite of being black.

When I first read the title of this thread, I thought it was: "Eric Bischoff hates marks."

That is all I have to add.

Gray 06-04-2010 09:02 PM

Going in for a small bump here! Guess he wants to stay masked!

What's up with the bumping of old threads lately?

Swiss Ultimate 06-04-2010 09:20 PM

Well, on one hand I get the anti-mask argument. How many masked boxers, mma stars, football players, soccer players etc. do you see in the legitimate world of competitive sports?

The Pope 06-04-2010 09:45 PM

Pro wrestlers

Fox 06-06-2010 12:29 AM

Remember when Kevin Nash and Scott Hall beat Konnan and Mysterio in a tag match and Rey had to take off his mask? And then on Nitro Nash comes out wearing the fucking mask.

Jeritron 06-06-2010 02:06 AM

metaphoricaly speaking

True, but on the other hand, unlike WCW, how much money has Vince and co. made whoring out Rey Mysterio and his mask as a merchandising investment.

While the cruiserweights in WCW were awesome to watch, the fact that they had so many masked wrestlers dilluted the possible mega bucks they could've been making by having the mask wrestler persona seem exclusive.

Rey's mask is a huge money maker. If TNA could actually sign a luchador worth a damn with a maketable look and mask, they could both market to a specific demographic and bring in new fans with merchandising, ala Mysterio in WWE.
