WWE News: The two Sin Cara characters background story explained

WWE personality Joey Styles wrote a feature story on the two Sin Cara characters for the WWE website. It explains that the dark Sin Cara character originally wrestled as Mistico in Mexico, but the CMLL promotion trademarked the name and eventually started using the blue Sin Cara character in that role instead. You can read the story at WWE.com.

Powell's POV: It's a legit story and an interesting one, but they still need to come up with a way to establish that dark Sin Cara is the heel character. Heck, the only reason I know he's a heel is because he was standing with the heels during the Triple H "no confidence" segment during Raw. Even this story makes the dark Sin Cara character look somewhat sympathetic given that the Mistico name was taken from him.
