6. Mex-America?
So when are Homicide and Hernandez from TNA joining up with Alberto Del Rio and Zeb Colter? To be honest, its probably a little too early to pass judgement on this new Mex-America idea that Zeb referenced Monday, complete with a fused Mexican and American flag and decrying of walls and borders. But the initial reaction? Eh skeptical. It just feels like its going to fall victim to the usual poor WWE writing that plagues so much of the show these days. Indeed, Del Rio already struck a strange chord by calling Neville a selfish, entitled immigrant. Che? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wibRSGWaOxQ This could be turned into a winning storyline and the initial reaction could be completely wrong. Zeb (Dutch Mantel) is a solid performer in his own right, and maybe theyll turn this into an honest-to-goodness stable with some new imports. If that happens, we could actually see something interesting forming here. Theres just that big albatross of WWE creative looming.
