Jericho's documentary was pretty well put together, but you'd have to read his books fill in a lot of the blanks.

Renaissance Spam posted:Back in WCW, Kevin Nash and Bischoff had Rey lose his mask vs. Juventud (I think) in order to make him more "Marketable". Rey agreed, and then went down to Mexico to lose his mask again down there to make it really important. Unfortunately they found out that he'd already lost his mask in the states and the Athletic Commission (that still regulates Lucha) basically said "You can't have a mask match, you've already lost it." It also got him a lot of heat from the Mexican fans because he was a big babyface and many took it as a slight that he didn't have the match in mexico in the first place.

Ravingsockmonkey posted:Looking at that Hall video and reading about Flair, it seems as though this is really a big thing. Once you get used to that big pop and the adoration being piled upon you, it's really hard to give it up. To go from having a mega reaction every time you show up to rarely to never being seen is huge. The guys that have made the transition and are happy with it... they need to write a book or do seminars or something.
