Hasn't lived up to it? Guys, all they did was show a guy doing a bunch of lucha spots, that's exactly what he does. He's exactly what I thought he'd be, a spot monkey in a mask.
Wrong. Lucha Libre isn't just about doing a bunch of spots for no reason, they just work a high-flying style with cool moves which is a good thing in matches when they tell great stories which they, and Mistico in particular usually are very good at doing, and he sure as heck isn't a "spot monkey",
Sin Cara looks like crap because his opponents, as wrestlers, A. Can't keep up and B. Just aren't as good/polished as the people he wrestled in Mexico, and he's wrestling the same style he did against those who could work their style. Give the man some time to adjust, people. He's already stopped doing 75% of his Lucha moveset.
It baffles me why WWE hires these people, then takes away the stuff that made them great. The lighting's neither here nor there, except it reminds me of Glacier, which is awesome.
