Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

I really liked Primo and Epico (mainly Primo) as a team so if this is them, then I'll give it a fair chance. The gimmick seems pretty dumb though, but hey it worked for Tito.

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

So are we 100% sure this is Primo & Epico?

I don't think it looks like them at all. They are a lot whiter, and look a bit taller then them. I don't think that it's them.

Yeah I know, I watched the video like 5 times today and they look a lot taller than them. That's why I asked as everyone just expects the other Mexicans back on TV.

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

Just screen capped the promo. Looks nothing like Primo and Epico. The guy on the left looks taller then both of them, and both seem to be a lot whiter than them.

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

It's sad to me that so many think that this is a good thing for the tag division.

These two are now in complete comedy roles. Tell me how we're going to get any storylines (serious or otherwise) out of this gimmick? If their lucky at some point they'll get their asses kicked by ADR for making mexican wrestlers look like a joke. Should have brought them in as a Lucha tag team. I predict they'll get two months of this gimmick before they fade away again.

JESUS! I have no idea who they are, but at least now I can laugh at all the people who thought it would be Epico and Primo due to the gimmick.

YOU GUYS MAKE ME SICK!

I wonder if they do the comedy bull spot with a red flag to tons of funk on superstars this time next year?

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

The sheets reported that these two were being repackaged before RAW even aired not to mention the guy on the left has Epico's facial hair.

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

Honestly from that screenshot, it doesn't look like them.

Either way, I seriously doubt the gimmick gains any real traction and the team will fade away after a few months

You remember Los conquistadores? They will get on TV. Sometime getting on, getting over, and just getting a shot is all you can ask for when the Colons themselves like personality or looks. They will like use Mascarita IMO as he's worked with teams like this before in LLUSA in the PR Powers to get them over

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

Do YOU remember Los Conquistodors? Because they had like one match at Survivor Series in the 80s and the Edge and Christian reprised the masks for like a week in 2000 and they've made like 4 appearances with various people under the masks since. How is this any kind of argument?

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

They are still more memorable than Primo or Epico tho.

This whole gimmick to me screams PR powers which is what Mascarita managed in LLUSA. I don't think its a coincidence they sign him and those two get repackaged into something remotely similar to them who he was associated with. If Hornswoggle got himself and Fnlay over as weekly fixtures I don't see how Mascarita couldn't get the team over, assuming that's their plan

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

I'm usually a "wait and see" type of person, and this may work, but I think this gimmick has as much chance of staying over like a bull at an actual bullfight. Guessig the sword hits these two fast and hard.

I see Primo in a mask, you can't hide them chubby cheeks of his.

Re: *RAW Spoilers* Los Matadores

They look like Primo and Epico, never thought there was any doubt. Rewatched the promo and it still looks like them, stop it at 39 seconds and if it isn't them then WWE must have hired some of their relatives because it looks so similar to Primo and Epico. Basically the same height there, same skin colour, same build, same facial hair.

Who else could it be? Hunico? But then who would he be teaming with. Still confident it is Epico and Primo repackaged.
