When Andrade 'Cien' Almas debuted sans mask, with an overly complicated ring name and wearing suspenders and a tank top, it's a wonder anyone cheered at all. He was sold as a fiery luchador, and while his in-ring style might be explosive, his babyface persona connected about as well as a broken plug. But when his switch was flipped during the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team classic, the former La Sombra took on new life.

Now, his Magic Mike reject style, nonchalant attitude and frustratingly good looks serve to enhance his heel persona, and he's become a solid character within NXT's mid-card, impressing in matches with the likes of Cedric Alexander, Roderick Strong and Tye Dillinger. With WWE's main roster currently lacking in non-masked Latino wrestlers, Almas has a great opportunity to fill the void left through Alberto Del Rio's departure, and could make for a fantastic heel contender for Smackdown LIVE's Intercontinental Championship.
