Mistake on Alberto Del Rio's bio reveals future

[badbomb]

Apparently the editor for WWE.com forgot to check his draft.

If you have trouble reading it the first line says "Are you ok with this for Del Rio's bio. Just asking because I know he's supposed to be a big deal, fairly quick."

[Bodom]

Hilarious.

Hopeful that it means they're serious about pushing him

[AGEOFFALL]

Hope wwe doesn't drop the ball with this guy.

[SilverGhost]

Fail on WWE on asking that. I saw his debut match. He is good. Surprised me on the armbar finish.

[AGEOFFALL]

That armabr was sweet.

[Northernwolf]

I dont see this guy being a top star just a gut feeling.

[SgtGohan]

ouch, fail on wwe's part. guess he is going to main event soon then.

[CDave3]

I hope the wwe use this guy right. They started off good by letting him win over rey

[Rangers_Chosen_Hun]

i think this guy has alot of potential and that wwe made a mistake realsing that on the wwe website by mistake and takes over from rey as the top hispanic wrestler in wwe i got a feeling he will be the new jbl he came out in the rolls royce and some other parts of his character reminds me of him

I think Del Rio could be absolutely brilliant and breath fresh life into SmackDown! God knows it needs it.

I loved the finish, the step-over armbar was brilliant, very unique finish for the WWE and its so nice to see a very over face tap clean in the middle of the ring, gives an air of realism to it

This. I'm all up for a heel who wins clean against a non-jobber.

[AGEOFFALL]

Dos Caras Jr.!

Totally, it always annoys me that someone just because they aren't a good guy all of a sudden need to cheat to win, this win gives the guy instant recognition and makes him a genuine and realistic threat

[SilverGhost]

Del Rio was very impressive from start to finish in the main event match against Rey. The armbar finish was amazing. This heel is good. Too bad he may cheat. Unless WWE don't want him to cheat and does his wins clean yet be all heel.

[AGEOFFALL]

So was the match with Mysterio a one time thing or a the beginning of a rivalry?

[DarkSide]

I loved every second Del Rios was onscreen. That guy has charisma and his armbar finisher is incredible. When he smiled as he was standing on Rey's hand was priceless. As for those who think he is a JBL rip-off; it's just the entrance - this guy is one to watch.

I hope WWE lets him use his one-arm gorilla press slam and german suplex he used when he was Dos Caras Jr.

[eyehatecena]

I just wish they would have still let him be Dos Caras Jr., but its the WWE. Regardless, he looked great in the ring. Love that he has his own anouncer

[SilverGhost]

I don't think WWE wants to make another JBL out of Del Rio. JBL don't have the guts to come out in a Rolls Royce! I have mine here xD

Del Rio will make it to the top. He has skill.

[mr jones]

is the arm bar his finisher or was rey just selling the injury ?

[SilverGhost]

The armbar looks like his finisher.

[DarkSide]

I think his armbar looks fantastic - He really pulls it off in one fluid movement. Still it is his debut match and the armbar will more than likely become a regular move later.

Still, he has loads of charisma and should go far if he is handled right.

I'm not so sure if the armbar will become just a regular move, I wouldn't mind seeing him use a move he can get the pin with but I'd hate to see them drop the armbar as his finisher, I'd like to see more submissions used to get wins, far more realistic way of someone winning and it really evens matches out as well as although its unlikely someone like Daniel Bryan could get a pin on The Undertaker/Triple H/John Cena due to them being so much bigger than him, he could realistically make them tap out

[AGEOFFALL]

He is not a JBl rip-off. JBL didn't have pyro or his personal ring announcer.

[The Watcher]

Do a youtube on Dos Caras Jr - This guy is waaay more than a JBL rip-off!

Making one of the top good guys tap in a main event on your debut match = being pushed to the moon... you're all gonna like this guy, whether you like it or not (and personally I do!)

[SilverGhost]

JBL=/= Alberto Del Rio

I wanna say that Del Rio has more skills in the ring than JBL. This rich guy can back it up. Del Rio is impressive as hell. Greco-Roman wrestler and did MMA. This guy is a valuable asset in the WWE.

IMO the hype lived to the expectations.

[WF™ - Original Member!]

I wouldn't say he is a JBL rip off but you can tell they definitely took some of the ideas they used for JBL and incorporated it into this guy, to be fair though they did the same with JBL when they took a lot of what made the Million Dollar Man and gave it to JBL, its just simple evolution of the business, very seldom will you ever find someone who is 100% unique in their character or their in ring moveset, hell even Bad News Brown was a clear blueprint for how they used Stone Cold Steve Austin 10 years later

[SilverGhost]

Some ideas yes. Del Rio fits better for the rich intelligent arrogant guy than JBL. He does have something to brag about more than JBL. He does come from a wrestling family in Mexico and did his part. He did MMA too so he has more skill than JBL. JBL is just a brawler while Del Rio is a skilled wrestler. People can say "oh he is a JBL rip off because he is rich and he came out with a fancy car" but I say this gimmick is his and knows how to play the part.

[WF™ - Original Member!]

Its just a small part of his gimmick, like I say, the WWE may have taken small parts of JBL's gimmick and installed it into Del Rio's but they did the same with JBL when they took parts of The Million Dollar Man's gimmick, its evolution of Pro Wrestling

[SilverGhost]

Well....the rich guy part. Other than that, JBL and Del Rio isn't really comparable. Wall Street brawler=/=wrestling royalty in Mexico

[WF™ - Original Member!]

Again, I'm not saying he is like him, all I said and I felt it was quite clear is that you can see bits of the JBL character that they have given to Del Rio, the same as you could clearly see bits of the Million Dollar Man they gave to JBL, plus, have they even recognised his Mexican roots yet?

[SilverGhost]

Yeah I guess I saw a tiny bit of JBL in him (car entrance) but thats about it. If Del Rio was a brawler, then he would completely take "JBL rip-off" or if he talked about Mexico like what JBL talked about the US. He would take that if said happened. But so far I believe its his gimmick with a tiny hint of JBL to piss us off.

I think they hinted that they did. Striker said two-faced and his ring name in Mexico is Dos Caras.

[WF™ - Original Member!]

Its not just the Car, its the outfit, the scarf, the mannerisms, the implication of being Rich in his promos, its far more than just a car in his entrance.

I doubt anyone could argue that Del Rio isn't better in the ring than JBL though, thats a given

[SilverGhost]

I think JBL has that neither Del Rio or DiBiase(since he is rich too) has is that level of nationalism. What make JBL stands out more is that nationalism form that he had. I'm guessing that if WWE told Del Rio to brag about Mexico more like JBL did to the US then yeah I would say he is a next generation of JBL but so far I haven't seen anything that Del Rio is like JBL. I guess Del Rio is like The Million Dollar Man.

[WF™ - Original Member!]

What I can see in both JBL and Del Rio is the car in the entrance, the manarisms, the implication of being rich, bully type bad guy!

[SilverGhost]

Well I think its too early to tell what kind of guy Del Rio is going to be. You can say he has JBL touches but I think its his own gimmick. Ted and JBL aren't really the same. Its only that rich gimmick. The styles are different. And Del Rio is no exception. If you wanna compare rich gimmicks, it would be Del Rio and DiBiase. Not JBL.

Some similarities but not all.

[AGEOFFALL]

This guy is going to go far if he won his main event debut.

I didn't say he was going to be like JBL all I said was he has obvious similarities and mannerisms within his character, its an obvious observation

[SilverGhost]

So if I came out in a limo or fancy car, my gimmick is a arrogant rich guy and I have skill in the ring other than brawler style I'm a JBL?

Look at Del Rio a bit more carefully. I see a wrestler with a rich guy gimmick that has wrestling roots in Mexico. He came out in a Rolls-Royce and wore a sash fitting his "wrestling royalty" status since he is playing his gimmick correctly. Del Rio has MORE skill in the ring than JBL.

"I'm rich I'm arrogant and I came out with a fancy vehicle" doesn't really mean "Look I'm a JBL fake, ripoff, reincarnation since WWE is lacking rich arrogant guys."

You clearly can't differentiate between being a rip off and taking things from a certain character, its clearly obvious that Alberto Del Rio has taken a few things from the JBL gimmick, just like JBL did with The Million Dollar Man, this doesn't make Del Rio a rip off of JBL, simply an evolution of the character.

Its plainly obvious, you keep referring to his in ring skills, but I'm almost tired of having to repeat myself when I say I'M NOT COMPARING THEM IN THE RING!!!!! simply in the style of their character!

[RKOViper]

He could be a huge star, but I don't think he should be pushed as fast as others have in the past. The guys who I am on about are Lesnar and Lashley. They were seen as 'huge stars' and they both ditched WWE and became sell-outs.

[Warmachine]

Del rio's armbar is so sweet very technical they better push him well!!!

I agree, he should have a slow steady push.

[SilverGhost]

AGEOFFALL said it.

A slow push would make this guy a star in the WWE. In a few months time, he would be a serious contender for the IC title. Its good to see a big guy not relying on power so much and goes technical.
