10 Wrestlers Who Improved At Something They Were Terrible At
1. Sin Cara - Botching
Sin Cara was a laugh riot of a comedy character in 2011, which wasn't helpful, since he was pegged as Rey Mysterio's money-spinning replacement.
His very first opening gambit saw him unable to jump off a trampoline, which again, was unhelpful, since an actual child can do that, and Sin Cara was meant to perform spectacular feats beyond even the elite junior heavyweights the world over.
It didn't get much better for the former Místico. As a luchador, wrapping himself at warp speed around his opponents with countless convoluted rotations was part of the job. Strangely and hilariously, he often just stopped halfway through in what resembled a loving embrace. He also slipped off the ropes and landed neck-first following a backflip with the frequency of a Stephanie McMahon ego trip. It was clear that Cara found it difficult to acclimatise to his new WWE environment, and WWE being WWE, they dimmed the lighting rig whenever Cara performed.
Cara improved as the years rolled by. From spectacular to spectacular failure to merely proficient, he became a consistent undercard fixture as the decade matured.
It's almost as if he'd been replaced by a whole other man!
