With men like Apollo Crews, Cage and more taking the belief of what big men can to new heights, Willie Mack has been somewhat forgotten in all of this. Mack was signed to a WWE developmental deal in 2014, but after passing the medical tests he was mysteriously released before even making it to NXT. Mack performs in Lucha Underground as The Mack, and he hasn't lost any of the undeniable charisma that made him one of the most popular independent wrestlers in the early part of his career. His in-ring style is more akin to a luchador, with the odd memory of his size kicking in. The perfect opponent for Rey then! Mack taking on Rey Mysterio is the sort of match that Rey signing with Lucha Underground means must happen. As an introduction to Rey and Rey in the product, Mack is the perfect opponent.
Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
