View Full Version : what would you "bring back"?

If you saw my video of me wrestling, you'll see I do the "Missing Link" style headbutts to the body (opponents down, I rear back and headbutt him in the lower back/ side) I do the Stomach Claw from time to time but not as a fnisher (more as a way to work the body durring an abdominal stretch) So what are some moves/ things you'd like to see "brought back" in professional wrestling? Eventually, I'm also planning to bring back the handful of powder that I throw into my opponents eyes. (I figure that makes more sense than a cocky bully that throws fire or spits mist.)

I'd bring back the WWE Champion coming out and squashing jobbers, like it was done back in the day.

Come back from the last commercial break, have some nobody standing up in the ring raising his arms and acting like he actually has a chance in hell of beating the Champ, then have Punk (or whoever the Champion is) come out and just dominate.

Not even to the extent that WCW had it but there are so many guys on the roster like Tyson Kidd who are useful but don't fit in with the other guys. Give them their own division to entertain and have a title to fight for since they don't physically or charisma-wise have what it takes to ever be in the singles title pictures. They could be a guaranteed great segment on Raw every week and help fill out those 3 hours with some useful stuff.

and can we bring back MVP? I fucking miss him. If he cant come back then how about John Morrison, with the SCM as his finisher.

It's the perfect way to take a bland guy and make him seem a little bit more interesting. Not sure why Yoshi Tatsu dropped the facepaint gimmick, he was looking pretty good for two weeks on NXT there.

Because they didn't want to get him some new music to go with his new image, so he was probably just "Mehhhh Whatevelu"

Should have just changed the colour scheme to green and carried a baby on his back until they switched his music to something more inappropriate.

Well, I was actually on the verge of being given a "Brusier Brody" type gimmick with the Heart Punch as a finisher... then I showed up with a clean shave/ no beard and a haircut (plus I cut out a lot of the roaring and snarling I do durring a match). Let's just say I haven't been booked by that company since June and we've bearly started talking again reciently.

If you want to be a "monster", start a gimmick where you pin someone, then demand the referee count 3 again to prove a point.

On the indy circuit, there are the Kobalds in ROH, who are quasi-Mayan characters painted like Damian / Halloween 666, and "Dark Child" Chasyn Rance in various indies, who is painted like "Anti-Christ of Wrestling" Jeff Hardy. Until 2007, "Pogo the Clown" Joe Apfelbaum also wrestled.

I suppose having a family-friendly face-painted character, such as face Doink, would be more unusual.
