People whose gimmick don't match reality
 

I've never started a threat on TPWW, so I thought I'd give it a try.

I started thinking about the differences between Hulk Hogan and Terry Bollea. Hogan (at least when I was growing up), was built as the All-American, say your prayer, that your vitamins, stand up guy who stood for everything right. Obviously, no one is that good, but it seems to me that Terry Bollea is not even close to the image of Hulk Hogan. Not raggin on the guy, just my oppinion.

So, I started wondering, they say that great wrestling charictors are basically playing themselves, with the volume cranked up, but who are some more charictors whos real self did not mesh up with their persona (excluding those with "supernatural" gimmicks, we all know that the Undertaker is not really a dead guy who comes up from hell to fight other wrestlers).

Happy Posting!

Please don't kill me! Thanks :)

Threat fail.

Cody Rhodes shouldn't be in a position to give out grooming tips, as he's a right fucking munter.

Dashing Trevor Murdoch

Undertaker doesnt seem like a dead guy.

To my the knowledge the Rock never cooked a thing.

Poontang Pie and Strudel.

Darren Young isnt black.

That's baking, not cooking. lol.:)

I'm pretty sure Mark Henry isn't a useless retarded cunt in real life.

I dont really agree with this statement at all. Most people watch wrestling to see outlandish storylines and over the top acting. I've seen interviews with Dustin Rhodes and he says he enjoys playing the character of Goldust (he even said he missed it when he was Black Reign). Scott Levy coming out and wrestling as a well spoken, intelligent man is marginal. Raven coming out and destroying his body to inflict as much pain on his opponent as he possibly can is much better


Side note, maybe I'm not the person who should point it out but you spelled Character wrong twice.

Everyone who talks about Taz say he's actually a big pussy despite playing the tough guy role.

Everyone says Vader was a big softy.

Something that surprised me was Booker T. I watched an interview with him discussing opening his school and handling his finances... he's actually kind of soft spoken and really knowledgeable.

HHH isn't Jesus. He's God almighty himself.

ROFLMAO!!!!

Yeah, I cant spell, and i'm too fuckin lazy for spell check. But I can admit my faults.

He didnt call someone a nigger

I remember reading that Beer Money was the opposite of who they are; Storm is the one obsessed with money and Roode is the heavy drinker. Dunno if that was true or not.

Also Big Show doesn't really stand at 7 ft tall. JK lol

His brother doesn't look a thing like him, either.

That's because Kane favors his father more while Taker took after their mother.

I'm sure Michelle McCool isn't a He-Man villain.

:shifty:

"Stunning" Steve Austin.

Just imagine Randy Orton arguing with his girlfriend and just starting to pound the floor making that ridiculous face.

Yeah or he sets her up for that planting DDT between the cushions on his sofa.

I'm also not sure how far this goes in terms of the point of your post.... but isn't it a bit strange that Kofi went from a Jamaican accent to none whatsoever, and for no particular reason?

That seems pretty far from reality.

On a side note... I just found out that Santino is from Mississauga, Ontario....

There was a reason for that though...

He went from a Jamaican accent to none whatsoever? Everyone has an accent.

And I'm gonna go and say Jericho. I reckon his pre-heel-turn gimmick was more of him in real life.

Ron Killings usually knows What's Up.
Shane Helms does not go out to the streets and save the day wearing a mask and a cape.
Actually Taz was a miserable bastard in real-life than his character back in ECW.
Kane is not a big red retard....he's a big red clever man (he used to be a teacher).

Not wrestling related but this is just as surprising as Dolph Lundgren having master's degree in chemical engineering and some other shit.

I'm not fully sure on this one, but is Shark Boy really a shark?

Yeah, a little Shark to be exact.

Oh my bad. It's amazing what they can train animals to do these days.

Waka waka waka! Haha, just the sudden change from the Jamaican to the American was odd.

Bret Hart isn't really a hitman!
