Alberto De Rio
Can Alberto Del Rio become the first Mexican-born heavyweight champ in WWE history?The six-foot-five, 260-pound grappler certainly has the pedigree: he is the son of respected Mexican luchador Dos Caras and the nephew of legendary masked wrestler Mil Máscaras. Before making the leap to WWE, Del Rio (real name: Alberto Rodriguez) wrestled as Dos Caras, Jr. for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre, the 78-year-old wrestling organization that has featured stars like El Santo, Blue Demon and Místico.
Del Rio, who has also had mixed success in MMA, made an impressive debut on WWE Smackdown versus Rey Mysterio last summer. Unlike Mysterio, however, Del Rio ditched his signature mask, a move that angered some lucha libre purists. Dos Caras, Jr. gave way to Alberto Del Rio, a cocky Mexican aristorcrat who enters the ring after an intro from his personal Spanish-speaking announcer. Despite the controversy, Del Rio has adapted quickly to his new home, combining the acrobatic maneuvers that he developed in Mexico with the charisma that eludes many Mexican luchadores who try their hand at American wrestling.

The people have spoken – and so has Kelly Kelly, loud and clear. After being chosen to take on WWE Divas Champion Brie Bella, Kelly Kelly (53%), who beat out Beth Phoenix (36%) and Eve (11%), took full advantage. With Brie’s equally tricky twin, Nikki, looking on, Kelly relieved the former champion of the title and began her very first championship reign with the butterfly-emblazoned title.
Raw GM arranged Triple Threat Match to determine No. 1 contender for WWE Title
Go ahead, Punk, keeping digging yourself deeper. The Second City Savior not only insulted the WWE Universe by flat-out telling them their choices during the night’s Raw: Power to the People would be horrible, he also insulted the anonymous Raw GM by insisting he get an opportunity to face WWE Champion John Cena for the title at Money in the Bank in Chicago next month. All this led the GM to force Punk to face both Alberto Del Rio and Rey Mysterio in a Triple Threat Match to determine the No. 1 contender for the WWE Title later tonight.
