So am I,His heel run got stale and it was time the guy started fresh with a face run and his face turn also means the Latino fanbase will be extremely happy and this is good for the business. Also Ricardo himself was always loved by the crowd so having Del Rio heel just never made sense however now that Del Rio's face its all good and the crowd can cheer both men.Del Rio himself is an amazing technical wrestler and one of the best wrestlers on the roster,Its great to see he'll finally be booked as a fighter and not as a coward like most heels.

I agree. Del Rio as a face is a much needed turn for him. I also don't think his mic skills are that bad. Certainly no worse than Wade Barret's. And ADR is leagues ahead of Barret in the ring. I'm interested in the direction they go with him.

lol@Barret being brought up every time someone else gets a push on Smackdown. You guys do realize, he wouldn't even be main eventing on TNA, right? I would be surprised if he was even in the upper midcard there. Barret is a middle of the pack talent. All he's going going for him is his size. If he's going to amount to anything with that cardboard personality, he needs to bulk up.

Sorry but the whole booking of this has been absolutely horrible in my opinion.
It's a setup for Ziggler to cash in. You should have known Ziggler wasn't going to cash in on Big Show or Sheamus. It's going to be on ADR.

Heel Ziggler vs face Del Rio feud would be awesome.

Great match, great emotion when he won. I like when someone wins the title and "cries" like the title means something, that actually what makes the title worthy of being chased.
It's a wise move to have Del Rio as face, way more natural.

This picture seems natural. As in he looks like a world champ should look. Ignore the av for bias.

I have watched pro-wrestling for more than 25 years and I have to say it : Big Show versus Alberto Del Rio Heavyweight title last standing match is the best pro-wrestling match I have ever seen.

Everything was perfect :

- Audience was living the match and reacted perfectly.
- The scenario was fantastic and really a last standing match.
- Del Rio's resilliency and acting are amazing.
- The use of weapons was brutal and right on time.
- The dramatic tension was awesome and RR played his role perfectly.
- The commentators were geniuses and stuck to the match (so rare nowadays).
- The ending was brillant, brillant, brillant and imaginative.
- Del Rio cried and damn it was so real, so emotional, so strong feelings I cried too.

Thanks Del Rio, Big Show and WWE. Best match of the decade for me.

The Hispanic audience is one that can ALWAYS be counted on, even when wrestling is on a downturn. I'm surprised its taken this long to give ADR a face push - he's always been the better of the two recent Mexican acquisitions.

One of the most overpushed of all time. I hate seeing people get pushed because the "If we push him fans will like him" logic within creative takes over. Fucking dopes.

I hope Ziggler gets the belt off of him at Wrestlemania. I bet he'll get cheered tremendously if he takes it off Delol Rio

He worked his entire pro career as a face. Why was he a heel again?

I'm no real big fan of the guy but you can see how he is more comfortable and believable as a face. More fun, too.
Not everybody has to be a heel.
