Reznor Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 It wouldn't surprise me if Mistico Cara was part of the first match and Hunico Cara the second to be honest. I can assure you it wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swift89 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Wasn't this one of HHH's first "big" recommendations/signings? Along with Awesome Kong being out with a "long term injury", it hasn't been the best of start outs for him. Â Yes they were, neither have turned out bad however for any reason which he can be blamed for though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Kong hasnt turned out bad either. She'll be back. She got more of a reaction just walking to the ring than most of the other Divas ever have doing anything.

Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted August 26, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted August 26, 2011 Yeah, Jim Ross hired Benoit but it's hardly his fault the way it ended. Â Kharma and Mistico were excellent hires, on paper. Kharma is a good worker and has TV experience and Mistico is a big star in Me'hico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznor Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I'd love to know how. There's been handheld clips of the first match up on youtube since a few hours after the taping, and it's clearly Hunico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted August 27, 2011 Moderators Share Posted August 27, 2011 I'll put money on Averno being under the mask soon. Â Although WWE should be real men and have Sin Cara unmask and it be Black Terry and give him a run, for he's fucking amazing. Best in the World.

Adam Young Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 To throw my tuppence's worth in, I thought Hunico's portrayal of Sin Cara was better than Mistico's in regards to the actual 'in-ring' performance (although I haven't seen footage of the recent Smackdown re-do) but it seemed pretty obvious he had no real experience in working in front of big crowd in a non-peripheral role (the crowd connected with the character rather than vice-versa). Mistico, despite his shortcomings, knew how to interact with the crowd and that is something that Hunico has to overcome, otherwise I just don't see the Sin Cara character working out in the long-run. It's just a shame you can't combine Mistico's charisma with Hunico's talent really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Perhaps it's the mask? There might be some problem with visibility or something. Did Mistico wear an identical one in Canada South? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a shame you can't combine Mistico's charisma with Hunico's talent really. Hunico's definitely more 'Western audience' adept with what he does, and also seems pretty innovative with what he tries, something I didn't really get from Mistico. Â As for the botching, as Loki says, maybe it's the mask? Combined with the dull blue lighting it can't be easy to see through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted August 27, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted August 27, 2011 His Mistico mask had eye-holes, didn't it? But the Sin Cara one doesn't. So yeah, one thing to think about. And as Ron Simmons says the god-awful lighting can't help either. I think trying the over-complicated spots with guys that clearly aren't used to taking them on a regular basis is another factor. Plus, those spots don't get the biggest pops. Which spots do? The simple yet graceful springboard cross-body for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
