On February 24th 2011, WWE held a press conference in Mexico City to announce their newest signing Sin Cara. And this signing was treated as a really big deal, doing press conferences to announce a wrestler signing was something that was unheard of from WWE at the time, so what made this signing such a big deal? Well, it’s because prior to him signing to WWE, Sin Cara was known as Mistico and he was a HUGE star in Mexico, and in lucha libre… so much so that a comic book series was made about him and his character, and WWE just had to capitalise on a star this big in Mexico. However if you know anything about Sin Cara and his run in the company, you’ll know that it didn’t meet expectations whatsoever. So let’s talk about Sin Cara fka Mistico’s failed run in the WWE.

Tom, I genuinely admire your top-notch wrestling analyses, but I couldn't help but notice a factual inaccuracy in 'The failure of Sin Cara in WWE.' Contrary to what was mentioned, there was never a trampoline involved in Sin Cara's storyline. It's crucial to ensure accurate information, and though this detail may seem minor, it's essential for maintaining the integrity of your otherwise excellent work. Keep up the great content, but let's set the record straight – no trampoline in Sin Cara's tale

There were reports of Sin Cara refusing to learn english and everyone he wrestles basically had to wrestle on the fly and just react and was really hard

WWE '12 had Sin Cara as the cover star in copies released Mexico, that's how far WWE wanted to push this guy.

I remember WWE building Sin Cara as another Rey Mysterio. The beginning of the end (besides the botches) is Mistico didn't want to learn the American-style like Alberto did.

I think the biggest issue was that Mistico insisted to be put on the main roster right off the bat. Had he spent some time in the developmental territory, perhaps he would've adapted to WWE's style of wrestling and wouldn't be known as a botch machine to this day.

Sin Cara was one of my favorite wrestlers at the time. I never knew that there were two of them and that Mistico (Sin Cara's original name) was released and Hunico took over the charcter Sin Cara.

I still remember the match where he injured his finger and called off the match and a pissed off Del Rio kept attacking him because of that. Mistio I heard was quite unpleasant backstage rude towards others and refused to do any training

What most tarnished the mystic's career in WWE was his ego, he didn't want to adapt, but he forgot that only mil mascaras you win things by having a big ego in this business

Still sad how he failed so bad because back in the day Sin Care and Rey Mysterio were my absolute favorite tag team.

Sin Cara's final match being one where he tried to have the ref call it quits when he broke his finger.....right in front of Alberto "I one did a house show after getting into a knife fight" Del Rio is one that has gone down in infamy.

Gotta correct you when you said WWE had never given anyone special lighting. When Kane debuted, he had red lighting in his matches for a while

Kane originally wrestled with a red light on but it wasn’t for very long but technically had his own themed lighting before sin cara

Sin Cara may had been a memetic failure, but that disaster of a sign was one of the key elements that eventually convinced Vince to greenlight Triple H's new vision for NXT: a developement brand dedicated to help indie and foreign stars to adapt themselves to the WWE style and with even English if necessary, before joining the big brands. Basically a "We dont want another Sin Cara case".

Even if he never botched or got hurt one time, Sin Cara's WWE run was doomed to fail because he never bothered to learn English (at least that's what I heard, correct me if I'm wrong). How are going to connect with the audience if you can't speak their language? It's no coincidence that the 2 most successful Hispanic stars in Rey and Eddie spoke perfect English. Look how many other Hispanic wrestlers who are good in the ring but fail to reach their level of success in the states because they can't simply talk to the audience.

Personally I love Hunico's run of the character as Sin Cara 2. Lucha Dragons are one of the most fun tags.

2011 was a complete mind f*** for me and the WWE. I really felt like guys like Christian, Mark, Truth were finally going to be main eventers for the next few years. Plus we had Karma in the women's division. And I really thought Sin Cara was going to be next major cruiser weight since Rey. All of that went down the toilet. And unfortunately 2011 was the last year I watched WWE full time since 1998. Not to mention my Bucs were coming off a 10-6 record the previous year. Then in 2011 they start 4-2 but end up losing the final 10 games leading to the head coach getting fired. Plus on my 25th birthday that year I spent the day with the girl of my dreams. However she ended up marrying someone else after she was done with me. Thank you 2011. You were my ultimate fake out.

To be honest I loved sin cara as a kid so much so I was so sad he wasn’t the next big thing because he was just cool

Man, sin cara had such great potential. He could have been portrayed as an high flying arch nemesis to mysterio and maybe even be a great heel.
