其实，他们当初签入Alberto Rodriguez不就是希望有一天能把他摆到那个位置上么，经历了Rey Mysterio的膝伤退役困扰和Sin Cara的各种不能委以重任后，貌似只要保持健康，Alberto Del Rio一直努力着要达成的目标很快就要成真了。

Backstage News on Why Alberto Del Rio Won the World Title

Posted on Jan 10 2013 - 9:39am by MMiddleton

Alberto Del Rio won the World Heavyweight Title from Big Show this week because they want to shoot Del Rio up as the new Latin babyface Superstar since Rey Mysterio isn’t around and Sin Cara has been categorized as a disappointment. Cara was actually ready to work this week and was not used.

The idea is that they will push Del Rio harder than Mysterio and Cara with the hopes of making a genuine Mexican draw out of him. This was actually the original idea when WWE signed Del Rio a few years ago.

The Last Man Standing stipulation was added to the match on SmackDown so Del Rio could survive tons of punishment before coming back to win the title.

There is talk that Del Rio’s title win was originally planned for Monday’s RAW but he wasn’t there due to personal reasons so they moved it to Tuesday at the SmackDown tapings.

Kevin Nash Joins HBK At NXT, Heat On Rey Mysterio And Sin Cara, Royal Rumble Title Match Updates

By Marc Middleton | January 10, 2013

As noted, Eve Torres vs. Kaitlyn in a Lumberjills Match for the WWE Divas Title will likely be added to Royal Rumble. This would play off the finish on Monday’s RAW and make sure all the Divas get a Rumble payoff. With Big Show vs. Alberto Del Rio in a rematch for the World Heavyweight Title being planned for Rumble, it’s possible that match may happen with some kind of stipulation also.

With WWE making the switch to Alberto Del Rio as their top Latin babyface, The Wrestling Observer reports that there is talk that they have given up on Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara in that role. The planned match between Rey and Cara for WrestleMania 29 may be off.

Big Update on Alberto Del Rio’s WWE Career (Spoiler)

By Sharon Glencross (Featured Columnist) on January 9, 2013

In this week’s (subscribers-only) F4W Newsletter, Bryan Alvarez notes that the company is keen to rectify its mistakes with Del Rio and push him as its next big babyface star. WWE feels that the belt will aid his cause greatly.

They decided very recently that they are going with Del Rio as their new Hispanic superstar, with the idea being that they’re going to push him harder than both Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara and try to make a genuine Mexican drawing card out of him. This had been the idea when he was first signed. It’s possible they were going to wait until the Rumble and perhaps decided that since they botched up his turn so bad they needed to change the title and try to remedy the situation quicker, plus a title change would have been lost in the shuffle at Rumble…

Considering the disappointing state of Sin Cara’s WWE career, as well as Rey Mysterio’s age and litany of knee troubles, it’s not a surprise the company has chosen to go with Del Rio as its next big Hispanic star.
