Juventud Guerrera
Is it possible to compile this list without including the Mexicools’ flamboyant leader? I think not. Besides being known as the leader of the Mexicools, who overly prided themselves on their Latino heritage, the insanely brilliant Guerrera is known for being a crowd pleaser, which was furthered by his group’s famous lawnmower entrance as well as his entertaining games with Paul London, Nunzio among others.
Unfortunately Juve’s iconic 450 splash along with his many other outrageous moves drew concern from the WWE top brass who terminated his contract due to his act violating safety norms. Even though he’s been out of WWE for a while he’s created a lasting legacy which won’t be forgotten anytime soon.
Mil Mascaras
Widely known as one of the wrestlers who put the Mexican style of lucha libre on the map, Aaron Rodriguez aka Mil Mascaras’ status as a wrestling legend is undisputed. Mascaras’ popularity skyrocketed when he became the first masked wrestler to take the ring in New York’s iconic Madison Square Garden. Although he’s only made guest appearances in WWE he’s a cult favourite among the franchise’s fans.
The 72-year-old’s respect for wrestling as an art rather than a business has earned him many plaudits and has solidified his status as a legend. The Mexican’s contribution to the sport was honoured when he was inducted into the Professional Wrestling Hall Of Fame and the WWE Hall Of Fame in 2010 and 2012 respectively.
Supercrazy
Another member of the Mexicools, Super Crazy had a memorable run in WWE. Deceptively agile, Super Crazy’s greatest strength was his speedy moves which often caught opponents off guard.
His most memorable moments include his partnership with fellow Mexicools member Psicosis against Brian Kendrick and Paul London. However later in his career, his body unfortunately let him down leading to his WWE departure back in 2008 with a string of memories in tow.
Essa Rios
The highly talented wrestler exploded onto the scene at the tender age of 18 under the name Mr. Aguila. Rios’ duels with Taka Michinoku attained much fame, which skyrocketed when the youngster won the WWF Lightweight Title back in 2000.
Rios once again made headlines after his feud with Eddie Guerrero along with his short lived feud with Kurt Angle before his departure from WWE back in 2001 in an incredibly short but memorable career.
