Sometimes you got to rob to keep your riches, just as long as we got an understanding.
~ Tuco Salamanca, Crazy Handful of Nothin'

Tuco Salamanca, is a major antagonist in the Breaking Bad franchise.

He is an incredibly psychotic Mexican drug kingpin, who became Walter White and Jesse Pinkman’s brief meth distributor.

He was portrayed by Raymond Cruz.

Why is he an Ensemble Dark Horse?[]

  • Tuco has only appeared in 7 episodes across the entire Breaking Bad franchise, yet he quickly became one of their icons due to the insane performance by Raymond Cruz and his incredible one liners.
  • He is so violently psychotic that it makes him laughable and very entertaining to watch, as you never know when he’s going to flip out in anger.
  • Fans have praised Raymond Cruz’s performance as the character, particularly noting how well he captured Tuco’s unpredictability, seamlessly transitioning from calm in one moment to extremely violent and over the top in the next.
  • He has incredibly iconic one liners, like “TIGHT, TIGHT, TIGHT”, or “This kicks like a mule with his balls wrapped in duct tape”, or even the "GET OUT!" meme based around his voice.
  • Multiple memes have been made about him, such as YTP’s of him being in random movies or TV shows like Avengers: Endgame or Squid Game.
  • His return in Better Call Saul was met with very open arms, and fans were very exited to see him back on screen.
  • He is the first antagonist in Breaking Bad to actually pose a large threat to Walter White and Jesse Pinkman.
