Anyone else think they should be doing more with this guy?
Obviously they need to adjust his move set since Hunico isn't the high flyer Mistico was but I still think they can change it up to make him look less clunky while still giving him that different lucha libre feel.
It's also obvious they aren't going to be pushing Rey hard anymore. This is the perfect time with Rey's age to use him to help elevate Sin Cara to create that new Mexican star they've been trying to build for years.
Hunico is a better all around worker then Mistico but he doesn't have as much charisma or presence that Mistico has.
And for the love of God please stop having him wrestle Del Rio. That match is just irritating now.

Honestly couldn't care less about Sin Cara. All that botching just ruined the gimmick.

I like Hunico doing it. But they need to do more with the character soon, or both Cara & Hunico are gonna suffer. Wish WWE would turn Kidd, Gabriel, or even Cara heel so we could see more of them against each other. Personally I'd love to see Cara/Hunico turn & paired up with Ricardo as the mouthpiece.

They should just abandon Sin Cara being Spanish and have Kidd play him if they are going to give up on Hunico under the mask.

It's hard to do much with him. The character has been damaged so much with all of the things that have gone wrong over the last three years. And it's not a character that really gets developed or interacts. I'd like to see them do more with him, but I think it'd involve some tweaks.

I preferred Mistico.

I think there are very few characters they can't be brought back from the brink of destruction. Post Mania Dolph was upper mid card after years of start and stop pushing. Swagger has made himself a solid mid carder now with the Real American gimmick after years of being a jobber. Kofi has made a decent comeback so far in 2014. Those are just a couple examples off the top of my head. I'm sure there are plenty of others.

Hunico is a poor mans Chavo. He is not a worthy replacement for Sin Cara, and is no in way, shape, or form the replacement for Rey.

The entire character has been a failure since day 1.

And has a contrived move set reminiscent of Trish Stratus? Everything about Hunico as Sin Cara is bland and forced.

The Sin Cara gimmick should go away. Hunico may work a much cleaner match, but he is way slower in the ring than Sin Cara Prime. That's pretty much the only reason Sin Cara is fun to watch is because of how quickly he moves around the ring and his acrobatic offense.
It didn't work, let's all move on.

It's difficult to have any kind of a character who can't even speak. It takes so much away from him. Look at when Kane first debuted. He didn't speak but his head movements and whatnot could tell a story. All either Sin Cara does or did is point. Woo hoo!

Mistico was so much better. They just didn't let him work his kind of match.

The character is already highly tainted. If they want a masked character to get over, then the right thing to do would have been to let Sami Zayn be El Generico. Can you imagine how over that would get in WWE? Sad that we'll never know.
