Great White Hope posted:When Rey was an upper midcarder on Smackdown, it was among the top shows amongst Latinos and he was the #2 merchandise seller behind only John Cena. All the more reason to get Kalisto up on the main roster within the next year. Obviously they shouldn't rush him up (like Sin Cara before him), but Kalisto can easily fill the Rey-spot, his mask/merch will be sales gold for kids, and the guy can go, so if they push him as an IC/US level dude, they might see those latino numbers bounce back up a bit.

That spot where one of them powerbombs the other one into an opponent looks good too.

How does calling a tag team match work? Is one team calling or is one guy or what?

magnum_valentino posted:Was Rey Mysterio (jr) a really, really big deal? Like moreso than other Mexican 'rasslers? He was pretty much the perfect formula for the WWE to reach the Latino audience: Mask, charisma, promo ability, great worker, unique appeal, high value as an "attraction", and came from a Lucha background. They won't find another Mysterio for a while.

The correct answer will always be Thurman "Sparky" Plugg. Though I would have given anything if Shawn Michaels had just wrestled as Shawn Hickenbottom.

Is there a way to explain why a wrestler's music plays when he does a run-in or just shows up unexpectedly? I like to think there's a jukebox in gorilla position, where each button has a wrestler's face on it, so Seth Rollins can push his face-button when he's about to run out.

I always figured the RFID was in their boots, but sometimes they wear their stealth boots instead. Otherwise it implies every sneak attack run-in without music has someone digging hunks of electronics out of their flesh.

The wrestlers intimidate the sound guy, like how referees used to be 90 pound weaklings that fell to the ground at the drop of a hat to make the wrestlers look even bigger.
