You notice how after that major fail of an in ring debut for them they've been kept off tv since then? And now they're back to airing these idiots putting over Puerto Rico in theses video packages.

What are they doing? Trying to give the audience time to forget how much these guys sucked in their debut? So they can try to bring them out again to a reaction this time? I don't care what they do, no matter how many times they try and get these guys over its not gonna fucking work. They can air these idiots talking about Puerto Rico until the sun comes up and no ones gonna care about them.

I'd seriously like someone to go back and count how many of these awful Puerto Rico vignette's they've aired and how much time has been given to theses boring idiots. I just don't know how many times these guys gotta fail before they give up on them. So go on WWE air another batch of Shining Star vignettes for another month and try to debut them again, and its gonna be the fucking same, crickets when they come out.

They are gonna be repackaged as Los Backstreet Boyz, Puerto Rico's greatest Backstreet Boys tribute act!

They have so much filler on the show that they can't actually get the ultimate filler guys on there.

They're just making an attempt to keep them relevant, they flopped so hard upon their debut like many predicted. They'll probably pop up and wrestle Golden Truth or some shit next week.

Well yeah, except for using such phrase like your filthy country in one of their vignettes, I don't find them heelish at all.

I don't get it either. And I don't know who it was... but the guy to the right just had a bad impression on me... that was the worst promo I've seen out of the other Puerto Rico ones.

And never seen these guys till their "debut" and it was meh. Been waiting for another match-up but oh well.

Primo and Epico still being employed by WWE is a bigger mystery than JTG staying employed so long there, cause they never used JTG for anything, Epico and Primo constantly get gimmick changes, vignettes and time wasted on them. I honestly don't get it, they just wont give up on these boring fucks.

Their in ring debut with the new gimmick FAILED miserably, no reaction at all even after months of vignette's for them. So what happens? Do they get released or taken off the show all together? Fuck no they got them back to doing those stupid Puerto Rico shining star videos, cause it worked out so well the first time didn't it?

"Maybe they'll like them if they do more promos about Puerto Rico! Yeah!":vince5

I remember when Goldust and Stardust got crickets at Fastlane, guess what? Vince scrapped the entire feud, but will he do that with Primo and Epico? Nope, i don't know why but he wont. These guys can get no reaction every night yet they stay employed and on tv.

I don't dislike them, and think they're good solid talents, but their gimmicks they have been handed for the past few years have been either ridiculous or pointless.

I think the tag division needs more teams if it's going to thrive so happy they're here and hoping for more from them eventually.

Poor Primo and Epico, let them alone...








Just realize once for all, they can't fail...
Don't know why the hell, but they just can't.:serious:
And if you don't accept them they are going to redebut anyways.:bully4

It´s a shame that they can´t find a gimmick that works. I like Primo, and Epico is somewhat okay (albeit a poor replacement for Carlito). They have the ring skills, but they´re not that charismatic, so they need something special if they´re gonna connect with the crowd. A lousy gimmick can´t do that...Idk, maybe a Puerto Rican Drug cartel?

First, everyone knows Puerto Rico is a poverty filled slum. Trying to say it's anything but mocks their struggle.

Second, this new act blows. Are they trying to be Tourist Guides or Beach Bums? Either way, it sucks

Third, It's still not as offensive as Los Matadores where they pretend to be Mexican. With Vince there, I'm sure it was one step away from being "Los Cucharachas" or "Los Tacos".

Fourth, their debut sucked. Yes, I agree...Crickets.

Have them use the Colon name. Come out arrogant that THEY have the pedigrees of a famous wrestler. Colon was known for violent matches mostly with Abdullah the Butcher. Have them come out hardcore with a severe violent streak.

Sorry for quoting your post, but due to some technical problems, this is the only way I can post til they figure it out.

Lol again this week they're just in a video package talking about Puerto Rico, so have WWE given up on them as wrestlers and just turned them into a commercial for Puerto Rico? They had a match what? 3 weeks ago? Lol guess WWE was so embarrassed by that lack of reaction they just gave up on trying to get them over and just relegated them to a weekly ad for Puerto Rico.

Yeah it really is baffling at all the talent WWE have fired while these two boring jokes have been employed for so long. I mean you fire Sandow, a guy thats so entertaining and naturally charismatic that the fans loved, but you keep these boring jokes that have never been over and have never been entertaining in the least.

I'm convinced they got dirt on Vince, i can't think of any other reason they're still employed. How many times can they get repackaged and fail before they're released?

I'd seriously walk up to them irl if i seen them and ask "How you guys still employed?" "Come on tell me, let me know how you remain employed for 8 years without doing anything".
