WWE today unveiled their latest Superstar signing, Sin Cara, formerly known worldwide as Mistico. The announcement took place today during a press conference in his hometown Mexico City, where passionate fans of all ages turned out to see their favorite performer become the newest addition to the WWE roster.
Having already forged a strong international fan following, Sin Cara, known for his high flying style and awe inspiring acrobatics, is expected to reach new heights of global success with WWE.
"Sin Cara is a tremendous performer who brings the crowd to its feet every time he steps into the ring," said Stephanie McMahon, Executive Vice President, WWE. "With us, his stardom will only get bigger and brighter."
Upon his signing, Sin Cara said, "WWE is the pinnacle of sports entertainment. It is an honor and a thrill for me to be able to perform with the world's best. Being a WWE Superstar will present new challenges, new mountains to climb and new competition. It is a new beginning and a new life. With that in mind, I have chosen the new name of Sin Cara in hopes to represent all the legendary Mexican masked performers and to carry the banner of their legacy to the entire world."

WWE to Attend the Cauliflower Alley Club Reunion
From Steve Wilton of www.honkytonkman.net:
World Wrestling Entertainment has just purchased a Banquet table for the 2011 reunion featuring WWE legends the Honky Tonk Man & Sgt Slaughter. That means, 10 banquet tickets have been purchased! Who will be the recipient of these tickets? TEN MAJOR STARS! These ten names will not be released unless the Executive Board makes that decision. But from the names I'm hearing.... All I can report right now is WOW!
Triple H Movie News
The Chaperone with Triple H did a little under $15,000 during it’s limited release run last weekend in theaters. That’s according to WWE’s own internal estimate that we obtained through a well-placed source. The film played in just 10 theaters in major cities across the country. It’s part of WWE’s new marketing strategy which essentially is a smart way for the company to save on advertising costs by running just one campaign. The real gravy is the DVD which goes on sale on March 8th.
