| Quote: Danny 2 "World Wrestling Entertainment has come to terms on the release of WWE SmackDown Superstar Chavo'"
All-Star at City Hall in October. Joking apart fair dues, he's a great wrestler and comes from a fantastic wrestling family, but in all honesty and fairness he's not really been that valuable since Los Guerreros in 2003 and his fued with Eddie in 2003-04. Sure he'll be very busy with indie bookings though, or more likely actually TNA.

thats interesting, they had him working a bit with some of the younger talent and supposedly was easing sin cara in, after their dodgy ppv match, he took all the flak for the ups.

| On Chavo's Twitter he states that he actually requested his release.
He was tired of being used incorrectly, with others getting pushes while he was pushed back to mid card, used to make others look good. And so he wasn't happy anymore.

I think mid-card was an overstatement. He went on a massive losing streak against Hornsgle for christ sake. Then they had him dressed up as an eagle. And had him still lose to Hornsgle.
True, Chavo didn't have the charisma that Eddie had, but he was still a good, solid worker who could have a good match with anyone. Something that most of the WWE roster can't do

Which amazes me as he isnt really a lucha style wrestler, he's spent much of his career in the US. I think WWE just figured that he would able to work a better style for Sin Cara cos he's mexian too.
Either way I've heard that WWE are bringing in some mexians to work with Sin Cara, I can't really ever remember anyone else that they have brought in to do this with, obviously they want him to be a big deal.

No-one who can't talk will ever be a big deal. Not in this era anyway.

well he can talk, just not english :-p
I think that, in time, he will be a big deal. They've paid a lot of money to get him, and he's HHH's first signing so obviously he's gonna have a lot of people backstage trying to make it work.
Bringing in people who know his style best is, i think, the biggest indicator of this. They want almost all of their guys to work the same style but obviously, the US style isnt what Sin Cara is used to and it isnt what made him such a good wrestler. With guys who know how to make him look good, i am sure that he'll be a success.

You're probably right to be fair. In the late 90's there was Kane obviously who managed to get mega-over without talking for at least two years I think it was, but these days a guy / girl needs to be good on the mike really in order to help them stand out.
Not really seen much of Sin Cara, but suspect that he may struggle to overcome comparisons to Rey Mysterio, who I bet will always be more popular and sell more merch for as long as he sticks around.

Kane had a mouthpiece - Paul Bearer.

Maybe the Joker can put forward a claim for gimmick infringement.

I'm not too sure. Rey Mysterio is absolutely shot, his limbs have taken an absolute battering and he can't do a lot of the moves properly anymore. Sin Cara is popular wiv da kids. I know my two were made up they were going to Smackdown and not Raw (Which I thought they'd be gutted about) because they wanted to see Sin Cara.

| Reports that WWE have offered the Kings of Wrestling contracts.
They really are the best tag team in the business today, and would be a coup, especially if they become a way to get Punk back in after a rest.
