For those of you (which is alot on this site) who don't follow any pro wrestling outside the WWE (again, alot of you on this site) Mistico is a 24 year old Lucha Libre masked Mexican wrestler who is by far one of the most talented pro wrestlers out there. Hell, alot of people are calling him the new Rey Mysterio or Ultimo Dragon! This year this guy beat out wrestlers like Chris Benoit, Triple H,Shawn Michaels, and Roidtista to claim the #5 spot on the Top 500 Best Wrestlers in 2006, and no cruiserweight has EVER done that! Now the WWE is interested in signing him. They already gave him a test match and were (of course) pleased so it looks like he will join the WWE soon. I however think this would be a very bad move on Mistico's part because while I have been a fan of the WWF (now the WWE) for almost 16 years Vince McMahon NEVER gives chances to people under 6'0, hell now his requirements are that wrestlers have to at least be 6'3!

Vince has it embedded into his thick skull that oversized, roided-up, no talent wrestlers deserve more pushes than the actual wrestlers because thats what he thinks people want to see. No Vince, that's what little kids who don't know better want to see, fans who actually have been watching wrestling for a long time want to see technically sound wrestlers like Chris Benoit, Randy Orton, CM Punk, Rey Mysterio, Chavo Guerrero, and now Mistico get pushes.

Now I know what your thinking, "but he will be a great addition to the Cruiserweight Division," which he will but he, like Rey Mysterio and AJ Styles, deserve more than that because they are better wrestlers than about 80% of the super heavyweights out there and that is a fact.

It took Rey Mysterio more than half his career to finally win a World Title that he rightfully deserved and TNA had the intelligence to see how amazingly talented AJ Styles is and now he (along with Samoa Joe) is the face of TNA and he has held the NWA Title 3 times, and neither of them showed any signs of not being able to hack it when they defended those Titles.

Here is what's going to happen to Mistico if he joins the WWE. He will do well in the Cruiserweight Division and win the Cruiserweight Title multiple times but that's it, he won't be anymore sucessfull than that because Vince has a big prejudice against smaller wrestlers and he thinks they can't hack it in the bigger divisions (the only reason Mysterion got the Title was because every fan likes and respects Rey and Vince took advantage of that). So while undeserving wrestlers (like Roidtista) are getting World Title reigns and oppourtunities Mistico will have to watch as people get pushes that he deserves. It's terrible and wrong and I for one think the WWE is becoming to cliquish for anyone to enjoy. What do you think?
