>Chad Gable doing the El Grande Americano comedy gimmick pretending he’s not himself but a Lucha Libre legend has not gone over well with many fans in Mexico and Latin America.
>In Mexico in particular, there is a very negative connotation of the US due to the government’s actions perceived as anti-Mexican. Donald Trump wanting to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America is a lightning rod. WWE billing Grande Americano from the Gulf of America as comedy rubbed salt in the wound.
>Ernesto Ocampo, Editor-in-Chief of Super Luchas, wrote, “This is an insult on many levels, both to Mexican wrestling and to Mexico itself. They could have left out the ‘Gulf of America’ reference and at least tried to write the character’s name in proper Spanish.”
>Backlash PLE in Mexico cancelled
