ADR-Car or No Car?

[i.Sarita.com]

I've noticed some people saying that Alberto del Rio's car in his entrance is kind of a waste of time, or overkill. And I kind of agree. I think his entrance would flow a lot better and his music would work better as an interrupting theme if he just walked out and did the Orton pyro instead of having to slowly drive a car into the arena and then walk around to the ramp.

They could just add in the car honking to the start of his theme without really losing much of that I don't think.

How do you feel?

I like the car. It sets him apart, and, since he's working a "snobby rich guy gimmick", it works. He NEEDS to look like he's "a cut above", if you will.

Let me ask you this. Would JBL work without the limo?

[rogers67]

I love the car!

[i.Sarita.com]

I think the thing for me is, it's already been done by Eddie AND JBL...so it's not like he's being original by having it. I don't mind it when guys are different in terms of ring entrances (like Cody's mirror for example) but I just think that it's silly looking when he's gotta drive it in all slow, mess with the horn, open the door, walk all the way around to the ramp, and then gets on stage and does his pyro.

But I do suppose it's good for his character, but then again they sort of forgot about him having any sort of character besides "that mexican guy who hates Rey Mysterio"

Nope, he'd be poopy w/out the limo.

I think the car works for ADR as well; though I'd love it even more if the horn was one of those old 'AWOOOOGA' sounding ones.

[The OP]

He should keep the car, it sets him apart, and along with the personal ring announcer helped establish him as a big player right off the bat. Putting car honks at the beginning of his theme music would not have the same effect.

Went ahead and fixed that for ya.

My point exactly.

ADR works with the car. Sets him apart from the rest of the current roster.

Car and Rosa Mendez.

It's not the car so much as his love affair with it's horn.

[Thrillho]

I'd only change one thing. He should be interrupting people with the horn before his music starts.

Oh, and I'd have four identical cars coming in from all four corners of the arena, and no one knows which one he's in, kind of like with the President, only double because he's Alberto Del Rio. He'd then have a bunch of retired tough-guy legends (Vader, Terry Funk, etc) escort him to the ring through the crowd. They don't even get paid much, but they're happy to do it because he's Alberto Del Rio. He'd then stand on the apron of the ring and have the Golden Shower behind him, severely burning the front row and announcers, but it doesn't matter because he's Alberto Del Rio, and he can pay for them to all get the best medical treatment. But it will be worth it just to annouce the arrival of Alberto Del Rio, because he's Alberto Del Rio.

All because he's Alberto Del Rio.

Does he need the car to seem awesome? No.

Does the car make him seem even more awesome? Absolutely.

Keep the car(s)!

[Snowman]

The car makes him seems like a big deal.

who's the ninny that voted fired?

[Deleted]

The car's the one thing I consistently enjoy about the guy besides his music.

That little Chihuahua Rey Mysterio.

Knowing the way WWE do things, I doubt he'll even have the car and pyro this time, next year.
