I'm watching a Super Calo match and I'm crying

[Deleted]

And as a kid I had no idea he was this bad. Yoo I haven't seen any luchador this bad since "Super Loco" in 97.

Might be why ECW took him for a cup of coffee.

Was that fan in the first pic a plant? Because I can't imagine WCW not getting sued for that...

Given the guy said "f*** you" afterwards I'm sure it was a fan lol.

Well, considering how he got hit twice and the first time played it up, I wasn't totally sure lol

One of the best parts of Uproxx's retro Nitro reviews has been Stroud's incredulity over Super Calo, and just how visibly La Parka couldn't stand him.

[Jumpin' Jesse Walsh]

Back when I'd watch 96/97 Nitros on WWE 24/7 (ah, memories), I seem to remember Tony Schiavone admitting once they'd been pronouncing his name wrong for months.

Like, you'd think someone would've corrected them much sooner, but it's WCW, so nope.

This



dude is



terrible.

Probably the best rapper out of all of them though.

I enjoyed Super Calo back in the day. Maybe I just thought his mask was cool? I dunno.

[Deleted]

The only fond memory I have of Calo was his match a couple weeks into his wcw run at fall brawl 96 against Rey he screwed up a couple things but Rey was so awesome at the time and the finish of Rey spring boarding from the top rope of the 1st ring to the top rope of the 2nd ring into a hurricanrana was bad ass.

The luchadores during that time in wcw botched a ton of stuff especially Juvi.

[Johnny B. Decent]

That is NOT a good lucha thing.

[The 1Watcher Experience]

I always popped for Bobby Heenan always exclaiming “The hat’s still on!” after Super Calo did a bunch of highflying or bump taking.

[Mozenrath]

More like Super Culo, am I right?

The first time was a Jinder-takes-the-Whisper-in-the-Wind level bump. Calo barely even brushed him. Dude is a gawdddamn f***ing marrrrrk.

This is incredible. It's the pause on the rail before he wipes out the crowd that gets me.

[Glitch]

I can just imagine him trying to explain his gimmick to other wrestlers in wcw.

Random wrestler:"what exactly is your gimmick?"

Super Calo:" Are you familiar with Mexican pop music?"

Random Wrestler:" no."

*awkward silence.*

[The Dark Order Inferno]

Cripes, I had blotted out how completely awful he was. When you're that sloppy, you're not even of any use as a jobber.

[Celexa Bliss 54]

I can't wait to get to his stuff in my Nitro era watch. I'm only at 1996, so I have a while. But as a kid, I never noticed how bad he was. Hell, I saw him live and enjoyed the match he was in lol

[Deleted]

and there's still tons of other gifs of dude f***ing up, wow
