Loss Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Tito Santana returns to his "native land" of Spain. He proclaims that he will become EL MATADOR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Santana VERY woodenly recites how he must face off against a charging bull to reach new heights in the WWF, then goes into scary voice mode. Such an awful, lamebrained idea from a company that was on a creative hot streak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Did we need to give Santana a gimmick? He wants to return to his native land and become El Matador! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Tito knows he has to be a bullfighter to become a good wrestler in the WWF.... wait what? Occupational wrestling in WWF starts creeping up here big time after some better conceived gimmicks like IRS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 I'm torn on this one. I can see the points of those who hate this gimmick or feel it's unnecessary, but on the other hand, what was left for Tito as himself? His time as a tltleholder/main eventer in the WWF had been over for three years at least. He'd settled down in New Jersey, so he wasn't going to WCW, and ECW, even if he'd wanted to go there, was two years away. It was either this or schlep around the Northeastern indies, which were the very definition of the term "sorry lot". He probably thought that Vince would push him a hell of a lot harder as El Matador than what ended up happening, although he still had a few shining moments left in the not-too-distant future. He's not really a good emoter, though, so these vignettes are bound to suffer in comparison to those featuring guys with more charisma and ability to project. It could have been worse; he could have been repackaged as a taco salesman from Tijuana named Chico. (Boy, do I miss The Body!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
