 For those of you who follow the PWG thread and the indy scene in general; this is pretty much common knowledge but I didn't see a thread about it here yet. Willie Mack (aka Chocolate Caliente) is on his way to the WWE and NXT. Willie Mack's a veteran of PWG, Championship Wrestling from Hollywood, the NWA, and various other indies. He has also appeared for Lucha Va Voom. He's a husky dude similar to Kevin Steen at his heaviest who can do some of the most athletic stuff I've ever seen. Mack's also one of the most charismatic guys to have graced the independent scene and has a swagger all his own. He's just got an aura about him. The dude also came from pretty much nothing in life to make a name for himself. Here's some video: |

They should just give him a Teddy Long gimmick. Have him come out like usual in a suit, "NOW HOLD ON PLAYAS", make matches and then compete. Possibly inserting himself into them. And the announcers never mention the change. |

How Willie didn't break his damn neck in that exchange from B-Boy, I'll never know.
Willie's like a fat Matt Sydal. Fatt Sydal?

WWE seems to be bulking up on experienced wrestlers, perhaps Hunter realizes Cena can't go forever? In 2 years, even if they all don't come through you're going to have such an amazing roster on the big shows to build to big new stars.

I could see him getting over. Cool video, though I muted it. Don't really want to associate CeeLo with anyone anytime soon, that wouldn't be fair to them.

Dude is like a new school koko. I am sure somebody called him koko. I did first time i saw him live. Magnetic personality and just a good worker.

I'm going to miss Willie on the local scene here, but am so happy and proud for him and hope the best for him. Hoping one day to see him winning on Raw.

I knew he had signed something like a few weeks ago, but he wasn't coming in the same time as Steen and some of the other guys as he had dates in Japan and Mexico. Plus Steen was making references about "The GAP" to both himself and Mack.

From waaaay back, the main comparison I made with Willie Mack was that reminded me of a young Samoa Joe.
He's gonna print money for them, if they allow him to.

All I know about him is from his Episode of the Art of Wrestling.
That was enough to make me a fan, glad to see him get signed

What's he like with a mic? Has he charisma or is he just a great wrestler?

What's he like with a mic? Has he charisma or is he just a great wrestler? language warning: He's not The Rock, and he's not polished on the mic, but he's got a good promo voice and can use NXT to bring his promos to the next level. His promos are usually down to earth and not always eloquent but to the point. Basically, he's a diamond in the rough when it comes to promos. I feel like his aura and his moveset will get him over real fast. Also his story in where he came from and how he got to where he is will resonate with A LOT of people. He's got a lot of charisma, but not of the 10 minutes of electric promo kind. |
