You heard me.
Look, Primo's not going to go anywhere unless someone takes a chance with him. Why not this?
Primo leads a stable of heel Puerto Ricans, including Carlito. He can cut promos demanding respect for Puerto Rico, deriding American for not making it a state or whatever. He can claim hard working Puerto Rican migrants are the backbone of the country that selfish fans take for granted. He can claim injustice at Puerto Ricans being accused of being illegal aliens.
WWE has been keenly interested in going after the Hispanic audience for at least the last 6 years now. If this stable and the angles associated with it played out well, it could almost be the Hart Foundation heel in USA/face in Canada thing of the 21st century, I tell you. It'd probably do better than the Mexicools at any rate.
Honestly, I think Primo is fairly talented but he needs personality and a direction. Carlito seems to be more energised when working with his brother too. Bring back Jesus as muscle and... one more person (ESCOBARRRRR! ...okay, someone else. Konnan as the veteran!) and you have it made.
If you want to muddy the waters, have him come out dressed like Castro or Guevara with monochrome flags of Primo being waved by his stable.
Raw is two hours, there's enough time for a stable based midcard feud. Cut that traditional 30 minute opening promo on Raw to 15 minutes and give this time to shine, WWE! Or just throw it on SmackDown, or even ECW.
