Update on the Future of Sin Cara

- As previously reported, when Sin Cara's (the former Mistico) WWE contract ends, he is not expected to be re-signed by the company. Cara is now expected to sign with AAA in Mexico. This is due to the fact that his relationship with CMLL ended badly, and also because CMLL has created a new Mistico.

Ricardo Rodriguez Mentions Hector Garza on WWE TV

A reference to the passing of Hector Garza ended up making WWE television. During the 5/27 RAW taping in Calgary, Ricardo Rodriguez snuck in a mention during his introduction for Alberto Del Rio and apparently no one noticed.
