This is Hunico with his new look in case you didn't see Smackdown.

He cut his promo in about 80% Spanish, 20% of it was in English.

Reminds me a bit like Homicide, what do you see will happen with Hunico?

Reminds me of Juventud Guerrera

Should have came back with another mask but I guess they need a gang banger type guy.

He reminds me like that dude off Mexican American kinda.

I hope he can use a Latino gimmick like Homicide did. WWE needs another one of them.

Definitely reminds me of Homicide and Anarquia, but I can see the comparison to Juventud. You'd have to throw Hernandez in there too as he wears a singlet and bandana as well.

I couldn't hear his promo as he spoke quite softly, combined with the fact my parents were like three metres away basically talking as loud as they could. If it's in 80% Spanish, I really don't care to see it.

I'm actually keen to see where this whole angle goes.

This

Should have come back with a new mask. Very happy they used the Hunico name though and didn't try to change that up.

Really looking forward to what happens next with him.

I was hoping that he would come back with a new mask similar to the one he uses in FCW. Very happy they used the Hunico name though and didn't try to change that up. He has a more "street" look to him now and I am curious to see what his wrestling outfit will be next time he wrestles.

Really looking forward to what happens next with him and I hope that he finds success on Smackdown.

Not watched SD yet so haven't seen his full look, but looks very LAX'ish which is cool.

Good spot, definitely very reminiscent of LAX.

What do you think will happen next in the Hunico/Sin Cara feud?

I am hoping that at Survivor Series they are on opposing teams to continue their feud there and then at TLC I would put them in a ladder match.

Haha, really? My first thought was "Chavo Guerrero" I miss Chavo...

Anyways, it's good for business. They need another good, non masked Mexican, and from what I've seen him do in a mask as the "Bad (but really better) Sin Cara" I can't wait to see what he can do out of a mask.

Wrestling in masks are freaking hard. I have one that I use.

Has a pretty good look for a heel. I assume he'll make it his mission to try and get Cara's mask off. Depending I could see them getting Rey involved in a non wrestling role for a segment or two to put over the feud.

Just like you did with the newest iMPACT set to SmackDown, you really need to stop comparing things that don't look remotely alike.

I am hoping that at Survivor Series they are on opposing teams to continue their feud there and then at TLC I would put them in a ladder match.

I would rather have two superstars that are feuding over a TITLE be in a Ladder match. What a waste of WWE's time that match would be. It wouldn't even work unless they are trying to reach for the mask above the ring. I also think two wrestlers should at least have a good match between each other before they are given such a high profile gimmick match. Why do people just want to hand these two everything?

I look forward to seeing how Hunico develops his own character, though. Maybe, I'll change my mind on the stuff mentioned above but for now he has to actually prove his damn worth.

He would have been used to wrestling in a mask though because he wrestled in one in Mexico. I am sure it would be much easier without it though. Hopefully he wrestles on Smackdown this week so we can see the complete new look and see how he goes.

What has Hunico done wrong so far? He has executed the copycat gimmick well, wrestled well and without even talking made the fans boo him. That is an impressive start and now that he is unmasked and is cutting more promos he can really develop that heel persona. I don't know why people have so much hate towards Hunico and Sin Cara, they try to list all their botches but then fail to mention the botches that occur in all the other matches on RAW and Smackdown.

Also their feud is one of the top feuds on Smackdown mainly because Sin Cara is so over with the fans so they do deserve more tv time than others on the roster. A ladder match without the title would be a little odd but they can always put a mask above the ring. Make it that if Sin Cara wins he can stay masked and if Hunico wins it means that Sin Cara must unmask. I think that that would be a decent match stipulation.
