Do you wanna see another "Body" in the WWE?
The Narcissistic gimmick is one that has been done since the beginnings of professional wrestling. Tyler Breeze is doing a great job with the male model gimmick in NXT but it doesn't have that "spectacle" aspect to it like Luger or Rude had. Would you like to see a guy in today's WWE that is that 300 lb 4% bodyfat, and just looks like he's "chiseled out of stone"?

In all honesty though, I gotta go back to Rick Martel. I hated him soooooooooooooo much more than Rude or anyone else with the same gimmick.
Ziggler has the charisma to do it, but I feel he is too "hot" as a face right now to flip the script and capitalize on it. Down the road, sure, but now is not the time. |

Never really liked that gimmick.
Will throw my hat in with the fat guy movement, however. |

Body gimmicks don't work when everyone has a body now.
Bottom line, more fat guys. |

Doesn't have to be a 300 lb guy with 4% body fat. Even HBK pulled it off, of sorts. It's more about the ego of the character.

Well, that's what I'm saying with Tyler Breeze or when the Miz was a "movie star" and didn't want to be hit in the face. They were good but they didn't have that "spectacle" feel that the huge muscle bound guys had.

WWE should have a sensitive man gimmick. A fat guy who is depressed about being fat and is very sensitive.
"Sensitive" Edmont Lexington. Each time he gets slammed in the ring, he starts crying and runs to the back getting Dqued. Next week he reads poetry on the tron about his mistreatment. and how hard it is to lose weight and blames his genes for it. In a funny moment he can be blaming his genes when Gene Snitsky shows up in a cameo and says, "Edmont Lexington says he is fat because of a bad Gene. Well, I'm a bad gene but him being fat is because he eats a lot and it ISNT MY FAULT!" |

Speaking of depressed rasslers, they should do a gimmick where there is a skinny depressed rassler. He is "emo" and wants to kill himself, but is too much of a coward, so he joins the rassling federation in the hopes that he will literally be beaten to death.

more fat guys
Maybe even more tag team combos of a small guy and a fat guy like Jericho/Big Show and Jesse/Festus |

Big Show and Festus are not fat guys. Viscera, Akeem and King Kong Bundy are fat guys. You need to hace a boiler to qualify.

Playboy Buddy Rose was the best fat guy rassler ever. He even had his own weight loss powder.

If this is how we bring in Jimmy Jacobs I'd be 100% behind this.

Not really a fan of the gimmick. It's like the evil foreigner to me -- there's just not enough dimension in it.
I'm all for the WWE bringing in Jimmy Jacobs. I think he could do cult leader with a more "human" edge than Bray Wyatt. Give him a run in NXT, where everybody gets over, and then have him sit front row for Seth Rollins' matches or something, and build this idea that they "know each other." And give Jacobs Luke Harper as muscle. |

Had to chances with this, first with Brodus Clay looking like Bundy, then being turned into a cartoony dancer... then with Big E on NXT, but the gimmick didn't make the jump to the main roster. Funny, because it was over as fuck, and a licence to print money waiting to happen.

Ronald Funches needs to have a tryout for the WWE. He'd be the most over babyface in the history of the WWE.

Guys like Rick Rude and The Model were seriously underrated, so I would be all for it if you had a performer of that standard behind the gimmick.
Actually really miss the fat guys too though, nothing like a devastating belly to belly/big splash combo |

A fat guy doing a big splash always gets a reaction. Hell, even Viscera's did.

I actually sort of had hopes that when he returned a few years back he might actually get to at least IC Champ level, but alas it wasn't meant to be.
Most recent gimmick like this that I actually enjoyed was Ryder doing his "Jersey Shore" ladies' man. |

I'd like to see a returning Gangrel play this character. Gangrel, with his old Brood character, would come down to the ring and show off his physique, but everyone would be like, WTF?!?!! I think it would be a good combination of comedy, weirdness, uncertainty, and bah gawd, entertainment! Val Venis also returns and sucks Mark Henry's dick.
