Flair's original "Nature Boy" gimmick, in which he'd wear tights made completely out of sticks and leaves, make his own entrance "pyro" by rubbing sticks together, and show his opponent the benefits of recycling while beating the living hell out of them.

The sad part is, the first time I heard him being called "Nature Boy," I thought that was what his gimmick was really supposed to be. Kinda like a wrestling Captain Planet.

I don't know why exactly, but that one has made me laugh the hardest here.

Anyways, some more:

Mr. Prefect= Curt Hennig as a wrestling interstellar hitchhiker

Brood Love= Gangrel, Edge, and Christian's short-lived face run with Mick Foley

Entree the Giant= wrestling's first competitive microwavable TV dinner

Mr. Nerfect 02-20-2004 04:27 PM

Rhyno's jungle hour with A-Train, Shark Boy and The Cat didn't get to much credibility, especially when Goldberg, Mark Henry and Jake the Snake joined. "Elmer the Patchwork Elephant" didn't get much reaction from the crowd.

Mr. Nerfect 02-20-2004 04:31 PM

Shelter Binjamin, the boy scout gimmick had to be recycled 82,002 times before Shelton Benjamin got it.

Mr. Nerfect 02-20-2004 05:03 PM

Hardware Holly- The computer technician angle didn't get over to well when the realised that making him out to understand computers yet not an armbar wasn't realistic.

Y-Pac- Sean Waltman's still going.

Fyna Chyna- Shaniqua's second gimmick.

Blubba Spray Dudley and Devon Dudley fight over whether whales should be protected or served as meat. Sable joins the feud as "Rubba Kay Dudley".

Kevin Slash- A reinactment of Kevin Nash's role as "Super Shredder" voiding the copyright laws. His second run with Razor Ramon as surgeons didn't go to well, giving birth to Al Snow's "Head" character.

"Mince" McMahon- Processing cruiserweights as fast food, selling them to the public and feeding them to the hosses in the WWE was a hanus act, but it still proved healthier than McDonald's.

LoL @ "Mince" McMahon...my brother used to actually pronounce it that way when he was around 6 or 7.

My picks are...

The Client (Paul Wight's younger brother)
Satanist(Christian's bitter childhood rival)
Bert Bangle(Kurt's pornstar 2nd cousin)
The Jock (Dwayne Johnson's old darkmatch gimmick where every night he would come out in different sports attire.)
The Man called Sing (Steve Borden's younger brother who was a choir member)
The Nation of Masturbation
Degeneration seX
The Fart Foundation
The 4 Whoremen
Triple H as the leader of the J.O.B Squad "Pin me pay me"
Soulberg ....The Holy One
The Connecticut Crippler Paul Levesque
Rock Lesnar...WWE's evil attempt at a hybrid experiment gone bad.
Lesnar's earlier gimmick...Man Mountain Brock
Hooker T...Linda Miles' failed gimmick
