Except for WWE's mask phobia. That's the reason why, not because Ricardo isn't a good wrestler or anything.

What the gently caress is up with that? And their fear of facepaint. Did they learn nothing from Demolition, L.O.D., Ultimate Warrior, and Sting?

Masks provide an additional piece of merch, so I don't understand why more companies don't endorse them. Plus they're easy character. Guy sucks at promos? Give him a mask with no mouth hole. Guy looks completely generic, but is good at wrestling? Give him a colorful mask. And a cape! Wrestling also needs more capes.

A great deal of American wrestling is built around facial expressions and you lose a lot of that with a mask.

Reys mask is pretty good for allowing facial expressions to be seen. They could probably do 2-3 variations of his without making them all look the same.

It's usually just angry glare and cocky smirk nowadays. So what they should do is get a masked guy with those two faces on it that he can switch around depending on the situation. Like that He-Man character.

They're claiming breach of contract from his 2010 deal that included "forbidden from making public statements, including tweeting, concerning TNA or any of its officers, wrestlers, or other individuals without prior approval" as a clause.

So either he's still under contract, or they have some magical contract.

AKA: Dr Lucha. They did a photoshoot where they stripped him of his mask, updated his roster picture, then a day later it was taken down because they'd released him.

There wasn't any fanfare to it in FCW, and he hadn't even been used in a month.

And the few times they'd used him on FCW TV, he was pretty much getting squashed. But on the other hand, he did provide Regal with the opportunity to take a nice little jab at why they gave him such a stupid non-luchador name.

"So if his name's Benecio Salazar, why is he wearing a mask? Couldn't someone just look at his driver's license to find out what he looks like?" :v:

He'd done a few live shows without the mask actually. It's still lovely though.
