El Grande Americano has been making waves as the newest luchador on the WWE roster who is looking very familiar to the fans.
The WWE Universe has been witnessing a new masked luchador making waves in recent memory on Monday Night RAW. The man who dons an American-style mask and ring gear and does some incredible dives and hops is coming to be known as ‘El Americano Grande.’ So it is interesting to dive further into the identity of this masked luchador and explore his WWE tenure so far.
El Grande Americano has been a part of Monday Night RAW for weeks
El Grande Americano made his first appearance on the March 17th edition of Monday Night RAW. He came from the audience area and jumped Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee during their match against The New Day members, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, leading them to victory. This was followed by a chase by the security officials and eventually being caught and escorted out of the arena by them.
The masked luchador was later unveiled to be an official part of Monday Night RAW. He competed in his first match against Dragon Lee on the following edition of RAW. It was a classic lucha-style encounter between them, although fans did notice some familiar chops by El Grande Americano relating his identity with a current RAW star. In the end, he emerged victorious in his debut match via submission.
Who is behind the El Grande Americano mask in WWE?
For weeks, there have been speculations regarding the identity of the man behind the El Grande Americano mask. Many fans believe that it is Chad Gable who is under the mask. As it was seen, Gable left WWE for a while to explore other fighting styles to combat the threat of lucha libre.
He was shown to have encountered an unknown man who explained him about luchadors and told him that he needed to understand what he was fighting. It was just weeks later that El Grande Americano made his first appearance on Monday Night RAW. Moreover, his size, ripped physique and physical stature resembled to that of Gable very much.
Interestingly, the fans witnessed a lot of Chad Gable moves delivered by El Grande Americano during his match against Dragon Lee such as his popular German Suplex. Although fans did see Gable and El Grande together backstage together when he was being escorted out of the building, there is a good chance that it was an impostor set up by Chad Gable to shift the attention of the fans from him. As the weeks go by, it will be interesting to see WWE play out the storyline involving El Grande Americano on RAW.
