LivingLegendGaryColeman 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2004 This has been a week of reflection, as we have heard the rumors of Eugene, a character that will bring prominence to the wrestling world again. If they want to go with this style of gimmick making again, what kind of characters would you like to see? We can't just stop at a handicapped guy (well, mentally, they already had physically) and a stock market guy. What else should there be? I would personally love to see A-Train in an astronaut gimmick. I would like to see a wrestling with a Smark Character, a la RTC. Have him try to talk about the inside in promos until HHH sticks up for everyone and buries him. He can disappear for a while and come back when/if Brock comes back, so Brock can literally kill him, with an on-screen death. Booker T also can't survive on the Smackdown hate forever. He can start an oppression gimmick. Everyone is going to think he will have recruited Teddy Long, but no. He will say he has been held back, because of his religion. Booker T will reveal he is Jewish. It even fits because the Spinaroonie can be renamed the Dreidel. Money making ideas here... well, actually I was really bored early and thought of these. But in the light of Eugene, let's see if anyone can top it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted April 1, 2004 A Gimmick I'd LOVE to see is a crackhead, who would hit the ground mid match and just shake like crazy. Or maybe the bumbling alcoholic...oh wait, Hawk already did that one. I got it! Bring up two guys, dress them in Karate outfits (the name escapes me now) have them do fake martial arts in vignettes where they only do close ups of their hands in action, then pull back with them not sweating. They can dresss one guy in red, and the other in why. They can be called Ryuken! God, I should be a writer for WWE. [/joke] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kapoutman 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2004 Actually, several gimmick I used in EWR could work in WWE. -Triple H thinking he REALLY is God(Trying to shoot lightning off his hands) -A dark character stuffing rubber chickens in his opponent's trunks as his symbol(Gave it to Papa Shango) -Kurt Angle as an over the top French Sympathizer -Someone who claims to be a Kung-fu fighting Disciple of Jesus -The real Dr.Death(Gimmicked open-heart operations in the middle of the ring with gimmicked blood and all) -Somethin to appeal to children with cross over promotion: A pokémon master gimmick -Roddy Piper, Jimmy Snuka, The Ultimate Warrior and Jake Roberts as a University debating team -The Big Show as a shooter in training.(Actually I gave that one to Giant Gonzales, but Big Show would probably be funnier) I can't think of any more.

I think this was a comedy match gimmick in Japan, but hell I don't know. That wouldn't work over here... the guy would just yell "TRIPLE H" and the opponent would lay down. In light of some recent events...the name "Triple H" can be substituted with "Kevin Nash" for cross-referencing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EdwardKnoxII 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2004 Here's an idea. During a match Booker T gets hit upside the head with a chair and get knocked out and it effects his memory. When he wakes up Booker thinks that he's really R. Kelly. Then in the following weeks we'd have Booker singing R. Kelly songs before wrestling. And also every week we'd see Booker macking on 13 year old girls and see tapes of Booker pissing on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Joe_G Report post Posted April 1, 2004 My friends and I come up with bad gimmicks all the time. Our favorites: --An evil jazz musician. I would have given this to Jerry Lynn, and called him "Jazzy" Jerry Lynn. His catchphrase would be "Now my opponent will sing the blues" and he'd use his saxophome as a foreign object. --A full blown pothead gimmick. RVD kind of qualifies, but I'm talking the real deal. When the crowd chants his name, he can get all paranoid, and then get distracted by a bag of cheetos. It'd also need a big smokey entrance, like Fast Times at Ridgemont High. --The Ministry of the Dead, for real. Now that undead Undertaker is (sorta) back, he's bringing an army of undead wrestlers with him. Davey Boy Smith, Curt Hennig, Hercules, Ric Rude, they're all coming back. Just take look-a-like wrestlers and put a mask on them, and say the Undertaker has risen them from the dead. And they can't be hurt because they're zombies! This leads to a big "Soul on a Pole" match at Mania. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or maybe Booker T can think he's Rick James. "I'm Rick James bitch!". Or better yet, Lil John! He has the dreadlocks! He can continue pulling them back screaming "What?" and "Yeah".
