6 Ways WWE Can Salvage Alberto Del Rio

6. A Gimmick Return To His Dos Caras Jr. Days

I'll start with what is the least likely option (as normal) but also the most dramatic at the same time. Alberto Del Rio comes from lucha royalty. Del Rio is the son of lucha libre legend Dos Caras and the nephew of the even more legendary Mil Mascaras and, before heading to WWE, he worked under a hood as Dos Caras Jr.

The crowd isn't really interested in seeing an Alberto Del Rio treading water in a disinterested way, so why not go all-in on a story that sees Del Rio begin to resent himself and the way he has abandoned his traditions? Del Rio would have to face up to his lucha past and accept it, and through this story he would transition from the arrogant aristocrat to the masked warrior, Dos Caras Jr.

As Del Rio is doing a whole load of nothing right now, this is definitely worth a shot. Not likely to happen, but worth a shot as something decidedly outside-of-the-box.
