This is genuinely beautiful. Ludwig was stuck in catering for months after being kicked out of Imperium, stuck being a boring enhancement heel on shows like main event. He was then given an already existing “comedic” luchador parody gimmick that was originally only supposed to last for a few months after the first guy got injured. For nearly EVERY SINGLE other wrestler not just in WWE but in the entire industry, this would have been the final nail in the coffin of their career. They’d get either no reaction at all or even go home heat for a few months before getting released. But not Ludwig. This man didn’t just treat this as the stupid gimmick it was, he took it and FLEW with it. He learned to wrestle a Lucha style. He learned Spanish. He even broke up with Tiffany and started dating a Latina baddie. He made what was originally planned to be a short lived comedy gimmick into something legendary that will exist as a dynasty in Mexican wrestling for decades to come.

El Grande Americano gets emotional at Rey De Reyes ❤️ "The pride of Mexicans is not the color of your skin. The pride of Mexico is the culture, the people, because the people of Mexico are the most beloved and because a Mexican is born wherever he wants"
