Never seen him wrestle, but have heard great things about him. Hopefully he gets used right.

I hope he keeps the name and mask. With Mexican guys they've brought in so far it hasn't bothered me when they didn't. But the international appeal with this guy is so huge, he really needs to be himself. I think he can do well with the WWE audience to if he's given the chance to shine.
Does anyone know i he can speak English though? I've heard that he can't, which could hurt him. Of course, maybe he's been taking lessons since his first attempt to get into WWE in 06. It would have been a really smart business move.

This is great news. With Mysterio nearing the end of his career Mistico can take over from his role. I'd doubt he be able to use the same mask but management would be missing out on a huge opportunity if they didn't let him keep his mask.

So he'll debut on Smackdown...win a few matches, get put into a US title feud, lose the feud, slip on his way to the ring at Wrestlemania, and then get released.

This is huge news. Mistico is insanely smooth and basically the biggest star in Mexico.

I'm very excited about this news but i really hope they keep him as mistico,with his mask and his moves, wwe needs more masked wrestlers imo.
At first i was upset at howmuch they changed dos caras/ del rio, but i have to grudgingly admit that he does a great job at his jbl type role and he has a good face to pull of diffrent wwe style emotions,which is hard to do with a mask on..
BUT, doesn't mean every lucha star that gets into wwe should be remolded entirely, theres nothing wrong with having multiple masked wrestlers vince...imo it would also undermine his credibility in mexico, after all the much hyped mask vs mask matches and him surviving them and becoming a true masked icon as big as he is...imo he really is the next rey in terms of mainstream appeal so it would be sad to have such a mexican legacy with the mask and then have to remove it the moment he steps through a wwe door...if wwe doesn't work out for him and he needs to go back to mexico without his mask i dunno, even him putting it back on then would be weird, he would lose the mystical aura.

Please WWE dont take his mask off.... I think is impossible that he debut as Mistico (mask and name) cause the rights of this character are property of the CMLL.

Maybe wwe can sidestep the problem and just spell his name diffrently, like Mystico,Mistiko,Mystiko...kinda like TNA often does when they hire ex wwe names. then again they can call him whatever they want as long as i get to see him keep his mask

The real Mistico (Hunico from FWC) used Mistico name with different spelling.

so, this is actually not true, again.
CMLL plans on holding a press conference to address this.

If anything I can see WWE building him up to be the next Mysterio, once Rey leaves and retires
