Gimmicks not yet seen

[steveweiser]

I was thinking after hearing that Paul Burchill has gone back to become a fireman, in the 90's WWF and still to this day wrestlers have had many gimmicks after professions i.e Big Boss Man was a police officer, The Mountie was well you get the idea, even The Undertaker still going to this day was given this type of gimmick, so what professions have not been seen yet as a gimmick and what professions would you all like to see done now in this day and age??

imagine hornswoggle with a ventriloquist dummy that could talk for him, makes me shudder

[Chavo Classic]

A zoo keeper would be an hilarious option. Pulls out a tiger from under the ring whenever he's losing to re-balance the scales.

[The Pope]

A beaver gimmick. He can never loser table matches because he eats all the tables.

Throw in some cleavage and we have a gimmick.

He can have vignettes to hype his debut.

Haha, I was not expecting Gabbo.

A creepy evil doll who talks to his Schizophrenic owner and convinces him to do sickening things might work. Think Al Snow and Head, but darker.

Thank you come again. :shifty:

[Chavo Classic]

I really want to go down the Shakespearean route, and have a wrestler pretending to be a policeman pretending to be a wrestler.

Anything to confuse the kids really.

God.

He was invisible.

Also, I'm sure there has been more matches in that past where someone has faced an "invisible man".

[Cool King]

Also, I guess this is "borderline" invisible man

Is it part of his gimmick? If so, apologies for forgetting about the future hall of famer.

[Cool King]

Scientologist.

[Chavo Classic]

Scientologist.

I wonder if any wrestlers are Scientiologists? And if JBL has sodomised them because of it?

I do like the idea of a wrestler who believes in a similar "religion" (too many legal implications of specifying Scientology).

[rob11]

A zombie. Not that one in ECW but a gimmick with him attacking random jobbers in the back turning them into zombies.

[nelioneil]

Fireman gimmick

[Stickman]

Baseball or Football player. They already had the Goon so they have to do this.

a Dragonball Z-like Gimmick

[Waylander]

a Dragonball Z-like Gimmick

Haven't you seen Randy Orton matches lately? He genuinely looks like he's trying to go super-Saiyan when he makes his comeback.

My vote for future gimmick is a knight, full plate armour and everything. He could stand for truth and justice before turning heel and replacing his regal silver armour with a black set.

[Lock Jaw]

Mad Scientist.

Enters in a labcoat, and has bubbling beakers of chemicals and stuff.

Backstage he'd always be scheming to take over the world/federation and be building machines/contraptions to that end.

[dhellova guy]

A white supremacist with a black valet

A wrestling Eskimo: Frostbyte the Arctic Assassin.

I'm 99% certain that way back in the day, WWF had a "Come as you are" battle royal and Lanny Poffo came down in a suit of armor.

[parkmania]

Mad Scientist.

Backstage he'd always be scheming to take over the world/federation and be building machines/contraptions to that end.

Would have to be a heel and throw the "chemicals" in his opponents' faces when the ref was distracted.

[Lock Jaw]

Well duh, you don't have a face mad scientist.

[Rollermacka]

How about a litteral knight in shinning armor? They have had plenty of "Kings" but a guy who speaks with an old english accent and wears attire to match


Baseball or Football player. They already had the Goon so they have to do this.


I still am waiting for a "sports" themed stable. Somebody dressed like The Goon, another "Knuckleball" with the paint, a football player with shoulderpads (not LOD pads), and a 7ft basketball player (that throws basketballs when the ref isnt looking)

[BizarroKing]

Football player.

Steve Austin: Footwrestleballer. I only briefly seen this at wrestlecrap.com but yes apparently this existed.

[rob11]

A guy that has split personalities, one face, one heel.

[DLVH84]

How about a Witchblade character? Or Gen-13? Ghost In The Shell? Fathom? Darkchylde? Lady Death?

I think we had Hindus already.

[MoFo]

A proper racist, because Kerwin White and Kurt Angle were crap doing it.

[MoFo]

Also a drug addict to counter CM Punk.

Gimmick, not real life like Hardy tho.

[Cool King]

You're just saying that because he's not a fan of "the black people" and he wants to make Jesus tap out.

[Cool King]

Though why not just have Nick Griffin as the special guest on Raw when the WWE come over to the UK. That's the closest you'll get to a proper racist. :shifty:

Wasn't Kidman a heroin addict? All that scratching and shit.

Unless you mean someone who would shoot up heroin in the ring.

Jericho will come back as Sting.

Stacker 2 YJ Stinger

[Fignuts]

I thought a good gimmick would be a guy who served in the military, but acts like a pompous ass about it, and berates the fans for not enlisting themselves.

Like, he acts like he's owed everything on a silver platter, because he spent some time in the military.

[Schlomey]

A narcoleptic bee keeper

[MoFo]

A 7ft roided up big man who has epilepsy, so when someones pyro goes off he spazzes out and the other guy can pin him. Kinda like Festus in reverse.

A new take on the jobber character, in short.

Pretty sure Chikara had two of these. They feuded over the pro-dragon stance of one of them.

Also for the interest in racist gimmicks: Col. DeBeers.

I heard there was supposed to be a gimmicked based on the then hit series Chappelle's Show. Anybody remember anything about that and what the gimmick was going to be? I think Vince nixed it cause he didn't know what the fuck Chappelle's was.

[XL]

TNA did that with Dustin Runnels/Black Reign.

[rob11]

TNA did that with Dustin Runnels/Black Reign.
Had a feeling someone did it at some point. Thanks.

[James Steele]

TNA did that with Dustin Runnels/Black Reign.

WWE did back in 97/98 when he was half Goldust half Dustin Runnels

[DLVH84]

WWE did back in 97/98 when he was half Goldust half Dustin Runnels

I think he did that in 1997 while feuding with Brian Pillman, just before his death.

[Drakul]

A computer/tech "whiz".

Hacking into computers to reschedule the nights match line up to give himself easy matches or title shots. Among other techy type things.

except for Jimmy Jacobs, WWE has never had an emo wrestler.

[MoFo]

Someone who is mic'd up and provides running commentary for their own match.

[M-A-G]

I'm still waiting for someone to undertake the Super-Villain gimmick from EWR. Hell, Flair's still up and running (well, so to speak); perhaps there's still time for THIS BABY! http://www.tpww.net/forums/showthread.php?t=27302

[Shisen Kopf]

A minute man who is in the wwe to round up and deport all the people he thinks are illegals like anyone foreign.

[BizarroKing]

Someone who is mic'd up and provides running commentary for their own match.

Laycool did this recently in a match...sadly.

[Tom Guycott]

Someone who is mic'd up and provides running commentary for their own match.

The Rock did this in an "I Quit" match with Foley. He was his own camera man at that point, too. This became a face turn.
