10 Reasons WWE Will NEVER Be Able To Replace Rey Mysterio

8. Lucha Underground Doesn't Even Have A Traditional Luchador As Champion

Prince Puma1 If WWE wanted to get serious about replacing Rey Mysterio, the answer is right in front of their face in upstart promotion Lucha Underground. However, when one takes a look at Lucha Underground's roster, the champion is not a traditional luchador of Mexican heritage. As champion "Prince Puma," African-American cruiserweight Ricochet has a fictional Latin background and is managed by Konnan. If there were a Mexican wrestler that could fill that position of champion in Lucha Underground, Konnan would've found him already. Obviously, there isn't.
