When I think of Alberto Del Rio I think of a guy whos great in the ring, has a semi-recycled gimmick, and a mediocre title reign under his belt. After further inspection I concluded that hes Jack Swagger with a nicer bank account. Hes Swagger with a tan, golden trunks and a manservant. Hes a guy who had an incredible amount of potential but hasnt been able to capitalize on any of that for a while now. A number of rivalries with Cena, Punk, Rey, Christian, and Edge have done nothing for the man whos now been subjected to a midcard feud with Santino. But theres one thing that's always linked Swagger and Del Rio in my mind. A while back someone asked on this forum, even if Swagger is given a half descent push, do you honestly want to see more of him? The answer is no, at this point I dont think I want to see more of Swagger or Del Rio at this point. In my opinion both men lost a lot of their luster very early on in their careers.
Anyway, here are my questions:
In your opinion, what was it that ruined it for Del Rio's run with the WWE?
Can Del Rio recover from this slump or should he really just quit and go back to mexican lucha?
Is it time for a gimmick change? If so what ideas do you propose.
Any other comments on the direction of ADR's character are welcome.
