By July, 2011, WWE officials were already souring on the original Sin Cara. The fanfare trumpets had sounded loudly from company headquarters when it was announced that they had sealed the deal with Mexican wrestling star Mistico earlier in the year, renaming him Sin Cara. A botched run followed, and the character quickly lost momentum.

Soon thereafter, Sin Cara was suspended for violating WWE's Wellness Policy, but not before Sheamus smashed him through a ladder. From the ring apron, the Irishman hit a Powerbomb on the Mexican. Jumping to the floor below for added effect, Sheamus looked vicious after performing such a move.

If nothing else, Sin Cara/Mistico deserves praise for agreeing to the dangerous stunt. It's hardly ever discussed, despite being gnarly to watch and looking like it genuinely did injure the man.
