How in the hell did Del Rio get so over as a face??

[StatUS]

Because I said he would

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

wwe was smart in the timing of the face turn...look @ the cities they've been in since he's been champion...Houston, Miami,etc. a lot of latinos in these cities and that has helped a lot

Thats a huge part of it. I actually backed off on compaining about the title change because of this. Its smart business and makes sense. Idk if he'll stay over but it made sense to do it now if they planned on turning him any time soon.

Look at next few cities they are at:

RAW: San Jose
Smackdown: Sacramento
Royal Rumble: Phoenix
RAW: Las Vegas
Smackdown: San Diego

Wouldn't shock me if Del Rio retained past Royal Rumble and Ziggler cashed in around or at Elimination Chamber

Genius timing...he'll retain until elimination chamber, drop it to sheamus or orton and they'll go from there.

And we know who will win THAT fued.

which of the Latino World Order does he remind you of?

*Fixed for accuracy

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

which of the Mexicools does he remind you of?

Psychosis

 

[So UnThotful]

dude was like one of the biggest faces in mexico, its more natural to him than a heel

at times it seem he hated the snobby gimmick himself

 

[TRIPLE M]

I hope he stays champ . I would like to see del rio vs caessaro at Wrestlemania I think they could steal the show

 

[Mikael Blowpiff]

He was a goddamn superhero down there in Mexico.

 

[Blacknwhite]

To go from a horrible feud with sheamus to one of the most over faces now...destiny fulfilled

 

[Premeditated]

It would be a travesty and Dolph cashed in on Del Rio. But Vince is not that senile, considering Dolph is still bland as hell on the stick.

 

[Blacknwhite]

Also him dropping the car gimmick was needed

 

[Reggie]

I'm suprised that he got over so fast too. But this is one of the rare times when the WWE got it right.

Came in here to say this.

If they go to Birmingham Alabama, the fans aren't chanting Spanish.

Best face turn in years breh

 

[DANJ!]

I had given up on ADR when that boring Sheamus feud took every last bit of redeeming quality out of him as a heel. Didn't know how the face turn would even work, but it's workin' incredibly. He seems to be more into it, so I guess he was just as bored with his gimmick as everyone else was.

Strangely, I also thought the Miz's face turn would've helped him the same way. But it seems to me they waited about a year too long to do it and now it's only doing OK at best. I get the feeling they missed the boat on a Miz turn, and he'll probably be a heel again by the end of this year. It could've worked in 2011 when he was still a top star and had spent the last couple years steadily getting better. But all that came crashing in 2012 when he was jobbing to Brodus Clay in a minute and shyt like that... he fell off way too hard for his turn to fully work.
