Has anyone ever had an astronaut gimmick?

[Rasslin' Fan 29]

Hey guys, long time lurker, just started posting today. Anywho, sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I hope the mods can move it to the appropriate one.

So as the title states, has anyone ever had an astronaut gimmick? I feel like it could probably get over huge. They could have huge rocket ship entrances and such.

[Shisen Kopf]

Yes. Skinner was an astronaut.

WTF? When did London do this?!

[Rasslin' Fan 29]

Speaking of London, anyone see he's gonna be going back to Ring of Honor?

[Waylander]

WTF? When did London do this?!

I think it was a year ago now. I don't know exactly which independent companies he did it in, I just know it was used in PWG.

[Purgatory]

I remember Paul London and Kendrick being a good team.

Now he's doing this???

Looks like a rejected Tron costume.

... or an alternate stalker for The Running Man.


And people wonder why Konnan was a tad bitter.

[Purgatory]

Yeah really.

[Purgatory]

In the picture, though, I think it's Paul Diamond playing the gimmick after Konnan departed.

I couldn't understand what he was saying to determine if he was being bitter or not.

Tekno Team 2000 was from the future. Does that count?

[Rasslin' Fan 29]

Yes, that does count.

[Lock Jaw]

Pretty sure Ultimate Warrior has at least been to space

on that "Steroid Spaceship".

[Rasslin' Fan 29]

Another gimmick that's close is Matt Hardy Version 1, he was real out of whack

Yes, that does count.

If they count, Planet Stasiak should count.

Didn't Konnan come up with the whole gimmick / costume himself? Then quit because he thought they should give him a cushy contract for inventing the character and being more popular than Hulk Hogan?

Hardcore Holly was meant to have a astronaut gimmick, a former wwe writer talked about it in a interview. The story was that Hardcore Holly would become the first pro wrestler in Space. He was going to be renamed Spacecore Holly and was going to have a pet Monkey. He said Vince was the one who came up the idea and was really excited for it. He had shirts and mech being made and everything, before Holly even know what was going to happen. Then Vince decided not the go through with it and the idea was scarped.

[owenbrown]

I hope to God that story was NOT true.

[Shisen Kopf]

Yeah I heard about Spacecore Holly too. Crash was gonna be called Spaceboy and they were gonna rassle on the moon.

[The Ripper]

I hope to God that story was NOT true.

the writer said Vince had alot of "Ideas" thank god he said, they never went through with any of them.
