WWE: 7 Recent Gimmicks That Did Not Live Up To The Hype

4. Los Matadores

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1adVkugs4As When Los Matadores debuted last September, they did so after much fanfare. WWE aired video packages about the tag team, Diego and Fernando, for several weeks. The idea was that they were these bullfighters from Mexico that just happened to be wrestlers too. Of course they were. The act came off as a joke right away with their little person mascot El Torito stealing the spotlight from the wrestlers. After beating 3MB for what seemed like two months straight, they became a non-factor soon after. For some reason, they've been put in the tag title match at WrestleMania. They've barely been on TV in recent months, yet they're getting rewarded. It's a bit odd to say the least. Maybe this is WWE rewarding the former Epico & Promo for suffering through this awful gimmick. It makes you wonder why WWE would spend so much time on a comedy gimmick when they really should be more focused on developing some character traits for others on the roster.
