Fandango got next
he is solid in the ring, not too great but charisma is his key. His mic skills are nice too. He's a throwback to the younger wcw jericho/early 90s coked out HBK characters who can be flamboyant, a smart mouth, smug, and vain. Dude has great comedic timing too.




= good match with current world champ Del Rio


notice they show finlay, hbk, and jericho when he talks about watching wrestling growing up

this fandango gimmick is a start but his talent is there

Good work t/s I've been waiting for this thread. He got some nice lil heat on raw. I'm slightly interested in this character now.

And his valet is fire. :ohlawd: Who is she?

:what: Johnny Curtis has been wrestling forever breh

So has Mistico and look how well he's adapted. Most take a while to adapt to the WWE style. Once you get in that spotlight it all changes and I'm sure nerves kick. It's like any new job and by that point people are already writing you off especially the internet.

Stupid fukking comparison.

Mistico wrestled only lucha, which is a completely different style than WWE.That's why he struggled so much, because his style didn't mesh with anyone on the roster outside of guys who could work lucha like Bryan, Kidd, Del Rio and Hunico. Worst thing they did with him was hotshot him to the main roster, especially when you consider they make almost every American wrestler go to developmental. He was destined to fail

JC been in developmental WWE for the longest time, he`ll fit right in.

It may not be the best example, but you knew what I fukken meant. Fandango is still stepping into the spotlight. A position he's never been in. People react differently to them bright lights and big crowds. I hope he does succeed and think he will. I like the character, but listening to his promo the other night his voice was already cracking and he didn't hold the accent throughout the promo. Part of his appeal is the character and the way he speaks. If his voice is already cracking the first time he stepped in front of a live crowd then that's not a good sign. I hope I'm wrong and he goes a long way.

Wrestling in front of crowds that are more interested in getting there food and drinks before the real show starts is a horrible comparison too. I don't know how Raws and Smackdowns work in your area but here people are still parking, at the concession stands, or finding there seats during all the preshow shows. I like the character and think he has enough experience to be good but hearing his voice crack during that live promo was not good.

what superstar do you know thats been wrestling wwe style matches since 99-01 cracks like sin cara did considering he never wrestled wwe style before? Only nikkas that fall under the pressure these days are bodybuilders turn wrestlers or divas

curtis has wrestled a lot of the roster for years where as cara only wrestled hunico and del rio and d-bry before joining the wwe
