I was just thinking about this. Yea, his gimmick should of waited like 10-15 years because this guy would be getting cheered like crazy today. He took no shit from anyone, was one tough son of a gun, was a smartass, and trusted no one. He was a pychotic loner by nature. He was Stone Cold before Austin was cool. I mean the guy walked out on two of his survivor series teams, betrayed heels, suckered babyfaces, and has a cool name for a finisher. The Ghetto Blaster :cool: He should come back and take Cena to school :yes:

So what other gimmicks from back then do you think would of done well these days?

I also think Kevin Sullivan from his Florida days would of done extremely well in the late 90's-present. His promos was crazy and so was his matches.

Sullivan's Devil gimmick was pretty bad ass.

Once he dropped the Tazmaniac gimmick, I agree.

Bad News Allen owned. The gimmick would still work today, but I don't know who I would give it to.

Problem was that back them, people just mistook him for a Mr. T lookalike w/o the bling. :shifty:

I think Waylon Mercy would be a pretty good gimmick to bring back. To this day he's still one of my favorite wrestling characters, but I couldn't imagine many people besides Dan Spivey playing the character :(. His facial expressions were what just completed the gimmick.
