5 times WWE changed wrestlers' ethnicity

The Japanese guy from Samoa 

#1 Scott Hall

Cuban from America

The heroics of Scott Hall are well known. He had a lengthy and illustrious career despite the battles with his personal demons and it’s safe to say that Scott Hall deserves the Hall of Fame induction that he got. Hall’s rise to fame came thanks to the Razor Ramon character that he played.

It was heavily inspired by the Al Pacino character from Scarface. The character which was named Tony Montana was a Cuban and thanks to some small makeovers, WWE managed to turn the American Scott Hall into a Cuban. The gimmick was an immense success and that is why when Hall left for WCW, WWE tried to replace him with a Fake Razor Ramon and we all know how that went.
