From my understanding, the Mexican people tend to like Mexican wrestling or American wrestling. I was speaking to a couple near me and they told me that typically people who like luchadors don't like American wrestling. I think some of them have a bad view of Mysterio, almost like a corporate sell out who sold out their tradition.
You know what was lame as hell by the way? remember Tough Enough? there was an episode were Mysterio took off his mask for the people training. They said it was a huge honor to do such a thing, blah blah blah, etc. I was like BS..he was in WCW without his mask for the longest time.

Seems like Mysterio likes to pick and choose when his heritage means something. He is a huge corporate sell-out though, but who wouldn't be when Bischoff was offering more money than he'd ever likely to see again when the proposed mask angle was touted and a big push after promised?

Nash is the one that booked him being unmasked. Mysterio wasn't happy about it. Also, he isn't a sellout. Money is Money IMO.

Not when one wants to provide a good life for his family. You guys seem to be forgetting that he has one of those, with all this sellout nonsense.

Yeah, he is.

This whole thread was posted for me to investigate how pissed Mexicans were at Mysterio for turning his back on the tradition by putting the mask back on under the request of the American promoters who throw money at him.
