10 Candidates For WWE’s Bizarre Post-WrestleMania 35 Push
5. Primo Colón
With All Elite Wrestling promising its audience a serious commitment to tag team wrestling, Vince McMahon will respond by offering a significant long-term financial commitment to its tag teams - before breaking those tag teams up for no discernible reason.
The Colóns remain contracted, for inscrutably quirky reasons. Last seen at Survivor Series - and prior to that, August, and prior to that, April's Greatest Royal Rumble - Primo spends more time ribbing Carlito with screen grabs of his contract on Snapchat than he does in a WWE ring. Primo earns six figures to moonlight in Puerto Rico and do six minute matches on the house show loop. He's living the sweet Lanny Poffo life, and what a life it is.
WWE failed to secure the signature of Bandido recently.
But El Bandito?
Of course, Primo has already d*cked about in a sombrero as a member of Los Matadores, but this is a good thing. It means WWE won't have to dip into the warehoused talent sub-fund to finance the gimmick. It might feel overfamiliar, not that Vince will remember the existence of the performer, much less his old gimmick. But this is different. He is a heel now.
A heel with a bigger moustache.
