Mexicools

The Mexicools made their debut as villains on June 23, 2005, when all three members rode to the ring on a John Deere lawn mower, with the sticker saying the more Hispanic-sounding name Juan Deere,{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/06302005/|title=JACKPOT!|date=June 30, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE|quote=leaving on “Juan” Deer riding mowers.}} and wearing matching coveralls.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/06232005/|title=Final Chapter, New Chapter|date=June 23, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE}} They attacked both Chavo Guerrero and Paul London during a WWE Cruiserweight Championship match.

Juventud cut a promo questioning the lack of "true Mexican Luchadores" in WWE's cruiserweight division, before going on to deride the current state of Mexican Americans in general. Psicosis dubbed the lawnmower they arrived on a "Mexican Limo 2005" and the group claimed that even Mexico's President mocks Mexicans in the United States (referring to Vicente Fox's controversial remark that Mexican immigrants do the jobs "not even the blacks want to do"). Juventud then stated that they were "no longer there to clean toilets and work for "them" (the "gringos") but "they" were going to be working for "us" (The Mexicools)", before dubbing the team "not Mexicans but Mexicools!" In the following weeks, they would continue to interfere in matches and mock the stereotypical image of Mexicans in the United States, even coming to the ring each with their own riding lawnmower.

They had their debut match on the July 14 episode of SmackDown!, a victory over Paul London, Funaki and Scotty 2 Hotty.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/07142005/|title=JBL'S STAND|date=July 14, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE}} They made their pay-per-view debut at The Great American Bash, defeating the reunited Blue World Order.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/thegreatamericanbash/history/2005/results/|title=THE GREAT AMERICAN BASH 2005 RESULTS|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20071211021901/http://www.wwe.com/shows/thegreatamericanbash/history/2005/results/ |archivedate = 2007-12-11}} In the following weeks, they would interfere in matches involving William Regal and in Christian's "Peep Show" interview segment.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/08182005/|title=See You Sunday|date=August 18, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE}}{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/05252005/|title=Dream Team|date=August 25, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE}}

The Mexicools next feuded with the heel Full Blooded Italians on Velocity, and this saw the group turn into fan favorites.{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/smackdown/050901.html|title=VELOCITY TAPINGS|date=September 1, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/smackdown/050909.html|title=VELOCITY TAPINGS|date=September 9, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/smackdown/050923.html|title=VELOCITY TAPINGS|date=September 23, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}} Juventud won a Cruiserweight Battle Royal that included all three Mexicools, thus earning a match for the Cruiserweight Championship at No Mercy.{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/smackdown/051007.html|title=INTERNET VELOCITY TAPINGS|date=October 7, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}} Juventud would win the match against Nunzio at No Mercy and the title.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/nomercy/history/2005/results/|title=NO MERCY 2005 RESULTS|date=November 9, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE}}

The Mexicools would then turn their attention to winning the WWE Tag Team Championship. Juventud lost the Cruiserweight Championship back to Nunzio at a house show in Italy.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/inside/titlehistory/cruiser/1582560|title=History Of The Cruiserweight Title - Nunzio|date=November 15, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE|archive-date=2007-04-18|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070418145715/http://www.wwe.com/inside/titlehistory/cruiser/1582560|url-status=dead}} That week, on the SmackDown! Tribute Show to Eddie Guerrero all three Mexicools participated in an interpromotional battle royal, which Juventud won.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/11182005/|title=Paying tribute|date=November 18, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-15|publisher=WWE}} On the November 25 SmackDown!, Juventud defeated Nunzio to become the Cruiserweight Champion once more.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/11252005/|title=Anarchy in the U.K.|date= November 25, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} On the December 2 SmackDown!, Psicosis and Super Crazy won a number one contenders battle royal to face the WWE Tag Team Champions MNM at Armageddon.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/12022005/|title=Hell to pay|date=December 2, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} This became just a regular tag team match after MNM lost the WWE Tag Team Championship on the last SmackDown! before Armageddon to Rey Mysterio and Batista.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/12162005/|title=Randy Orton's Revelation|date=December 16, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} At Armageddon Juventud lost the Cruiserweight Championship to Kid Kash,{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/armageddon/history/2005/results/|title=ARMAGEDDON 2005 RESULTS|date=December 18, 2005|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} and MNM defeated Super Crazy and Psicosis with help from Melina.

After repeated backstage problems, Juventud was released from WWE on January 6, 2006, leaving Psicosis and Super Crazy as the only remaining team members. On February 3, 2006, Super Crazy and Psicosis bounced back by nearly defeating MNM for the WWE Tag Team Championship.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/02032006/|title=Who's going to WrestleMania?|date=February 3, 2006|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} They appeared to have the gold in the grasp, but their dreams of winning the titles went up in smoke when Melina hit Super Crazy with her boot as he went for a moonsault. MNM capitalized and retained.

Following Juventud's departure from WWE, Psicosis and Super Crazy slowly started to diminish as a tag team. Super Crazy would see success as a singles superstar, winning most of his major matches, including a triple threat number one contender match for the Cruiserweight Championship against Nunzio and Kid Kash.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/05122006/|title=Tragic Homecoming|date=May 12, 2006|author=Louie Dee|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} Psicosis failed to appear on WWE television for several weeks. Following Super Crazy's loss to Gregory Helms for the title at Judgment Day,{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/judgmentday/history/2006/matches/2734448/results/|title=Courageous In Defeat|date=May 21, 2006|author=Brett Hoffman|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} he and Psicosis reunited.{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/smackdown/060602.html|title=INTERNET VELOCITY TAPING|date=June 2, 2006|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}

Seeds of a split seemed to appear in mid-2006 around the same time as the redevelopment of the ECW brand. During a tag-team match on Velocity the Mexicools faced the reigning WWE Tag Team Champions Paul London and Brian Kendrick. Although both teams respected each other during the match, Psicosis used the ropes to pick up an illegal pinfall to win the match. This led to Super Crazy questioning Psicosis' actions. Next, during a SmackDown! broadcast, Psicosis left Super Crazy to be attacked by The Great Khali after a match, saving his own skin and leaving his tag team partner to fend for himself.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/06092006/|title=Hell week continues|date=June 9, 2006|author=Louie Dee|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} Psicosis would later abandon Super Crazy during a handicap match against Khali.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/06162006/|title=Royal beating|date=June 16, 2006|author=Ed Williams III|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} On the June 23 edition of SmackDown!, Super Crazy and Psicosis got into a fist-fight after various miscommunications throughout the match, marking the split of the team.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/06232006/|title=Family tradition|date=June 23, 2006|author=Louie Dee|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} The two were still billed as members of the faction in the following weeks, even though they were interfering in each other's matches,{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/06302006/|title=Lashley reigns supreme|date=June 30, 2006|author=Ed Williams III|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}}{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/07072006/|title=An Animal Unleashed|date=July 7, 2006|author=Brett Hoffman|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} until they had a match on an episode of SmackDown! which was won by Super Crazy.{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/07212006/|title=Countdown to the Bash|date=July 21, 2006|author=Craig Tello|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} After the split, Super Crazy was moved to the Raw brand,{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/supercrazy/|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080105075713/http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/supercrazy/|archivedate=2008-01-05|title=Super Crazy Profile|accessdate=2008-01-27|publisher=WWE}} while Psicosis stayed on SmackDown!. On November 1, 2006, Psicosis' WWE contract was officially terminated by WWE because of his arrest in Mexico for stealing a car.

The group has regularly teamed together on the independent circuit in Mexico and the United States following their WWE stint.{{Cite web |title=Matches - Nicho |url=https://www.cagematch.net/?id=2&nr=529&page=4&search=Juventud |website=CageMatch}}{{Cite web |title=Matches - Super Crazy |url=https://www.cagematch.net/?id=2&nr=164&page=4&search=Juventud |website=CageMatch}}
