I thought they were great for the first couple weeks. Now its kind getting a bit annoying. Just debut them already.

It still kind of bugs me that they're being promoted as heroic faces, too, considering that, well, bullfighting is widely considered to be an inhumane and barbaric legacy of the past.

They'll be coming "next week" like Brodus Clay.
Which means they'll actually be Primo and Epico as disco dancers.

I still don't get how this gimmick translates into the world of wrestling.

I still don't get how this gimmick translates into the world of wrestling. They'll try to get an "OLE!" chant everytime they do something. The WWE is smart enough to know that their fans love chanting stuff. They will literally chant anything if it's simple. |

Because it worked wonders for Tito Santana's career.
Also, they're Puerto Rican.

I'm okay with them, I always sort of assumed they were waiting until after the next PPV to debut them, so I expected them to last this long.

WWE always, always runs vignettes for waaaaaaay too long. Three weeks should be the maximum yet they always go like two or three months.

Have to agree. My interest has already come and gone. Even Mini-Mantaur as a mascot for them couldn't pique my interest again, well, maybe a little.

It just sucks that most likely The Real Americans will be losing to them.

I get why that could but some people, but I'm just taking it all as a joke because they are professional wrestlers that dress like bullfighters. I think, by definition, "Profession X as a pro wrestler" is a parody so I just take it as an absurd thing that takes itself more seriously than it should. |

Is there ANY character whose debut was preceded by vignettes in recent years who people didn't make this exact same post about? The Wyatts got it, Fandango got it, Brodus Clay got it (though that one was deliberate on WWE's part), IIRC even Alberto del Rio got it a few years ago.

I rolled my eyes the first time.
I get aggravated with the them 10th time.
I now talk to my television on the 75th times.
I do not, have not liked them.
Maybe they'll get over, but it just seems like a stupid gimmick.

It doesn't cripple people or anything, but it still just feels like they're wasting time and just makes you want to see them either debut the person or shut up about them. |

I'm more upset that we basically will never see Primo again as he'll be known as Matadore #1 from now on.
Also where the hell is Hunico and Camacho? If there's any team that should be jobbing to them, it's those two.
