Help inspire new gimmicks, no matter how stupid they are!
 
Alright, so one of the primary reasons we turn onto WWE or TNA and even UFC at times is because of the working gimmicks, right? Gimmicks are fun and really draw a franchise for the superstar, so when you watch a wrestling promotion, when "don't" you see a wrestler using one? It must be fun to be a creative writer for these gimmicks (though at the expense of the wrestler's pride and real-life reputation). So put yourself in the shoes of one of these disregarding asshole creative writers and, if by chance they read these forums, put forth some ideas for new gimmicks, or maybe even an idea so dumb, a wrestler wouldn't dare step into the promotion to play such a demeaning gimmick. I would say be as serious as possible, but with characters like Bastion Booger, Doink the Clown, the Gobbledygooker, or Michael Cole (probably his real life persona though) why should you be :roll:?

So basically be Vince Russo.

Yes!!!

We really need a mad scientist gimmick in wrestling. Seriously cannot believe that back in the day when everyone had a gimmick, that nobody did this one.

Pretty much come out with a labcoat, maybe some beakers full of mysterious chemicals, and always be laughing maniacally and working on some sort of evil machine backstage.

Damndirty 12-11-2011 07:21 PM

The Groper- a guy that crawls out from under the ring when a diva gets knocked to the floor and fondles the shit outta her before retreating back to his hole.

Mr Molester, who has a bag full of candy and tries to lure kids from the crowd into his van

I would've figured they'd have at least a manager play that for some big frankenstein-like guy.

Racist rich black guy with white slaves on dog leashes

We had a mad scientist character back in the day in the E-Fed I played in. I remember an angle where one of his experiments went awry and turned most of the roster into children.

Stuff like that would be GOLD on TV!

Since the PG Era deal in WWE, I thought Yoshi Tatsu would have one of those guys from Kaiju Big Battel come out with him.

A velociraptor gimmick

How about a T-Reks?

Damndirty 12-11-2011 07:44 PM

They could use the guy from The Shining who dressed in a bulldog costume while performing oral sex on some old dude. Lol!

Corporate CockSnogger 12-11-2011 07:44 PM

Is that Tyler Reks' actual gimmick? Does he pretend/believe he's a T-Rex?

They had Seven, but Russo killed that one.

An indiana jones-type gimmick

BizarroKing 12-11-2011 08:04 PM

A female wrestler with a lesbian gimmick and always wins with her finisher: A kiss to her opponent's lips followed by a kick to the back of the head with them distracted or by a simple roll up.

No, but it should be. It would be GOLD to see him stalking around backstage, roaring and trying to eat people. His hands would never extend outwards from his chest, which would actually make him terrible in the ring, but still GOLDEN.

Sable kinda did something like that, and I did hear about an MMA fighter who won his fights by kissing the other guy and suddenly clocking him to knock him out.

Lol "Bobby you are 17, it's time to throw childish things aside" and I said "OK Pop", but he didn't really say that he said that "Stop being a fucking dinosaur and get a job"

Have we ever seen a guy do Muay Thai in wrestling? Instead of another submission specialist of a karate experts.

BizarroKing 12-11-2011 08:53 PM

A wrestler who is from outer space (or claims to be anyway).

How about a pizza delivery driver. Turns up each week with a prank order of pizza and gets into a fight either jobbing or lucky wins i.e roll up or count outs

There was a jobber who lost to Drew Macyntire once on Smackdown, and they promoted him as an MMA fighter. It looked like Muay Thai he was using, but.... jobber nevertheless to the invincible Drew Macyntire.

A guy who has anti-phantom limb syndrome, he believes his left arm has been amputated and so never uses it, and anytime somebody tries to damage his left arm he just shrugs it off 'cause his arm isn't there.

Corporate CockSnogger 12-11-2011 09:28 PM

A Star Wars enthusiast who uses a lightsaber to hit people with.

Corporate CockSnogger 12-11-2011 09:30 PM

The Traffic Man. An unstoppable monster hoss type character whose manager has found that the only way to control him is by bringing a set of traffic lights to the ring. Everytime the light is on green Traffic Man goes apeshit, Red - he can cause no offense, Amber - he can only taunt and prepare himself for moves.

Jack Swagger totally needs a 1940s style gangster gimmick. Give him some real Swagger.

rob11 12-11-2011 09:42 PM

A "doctor" who claims he can help jobbers by giving them suppliments to help win matches. The jobbers start winning matches but they start having sudden bouts of rage punching holes through walls and attacking random wrestlers backstage. Not the best gimmick after 2007.

BizarroKing 12-11-2011 10:06 PM

Get behind the recent success of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic with a Brony gimmick where they carry stuffed pony toys to the ring. They could feud with Zack Ryder in a Brony vs Broski feud.

Here is a gimmick that is new to this forum.

New Posters who arent fucking retarded.

BOOK IT

A genie, and his manager can push him down to the ring in a giant lamp.

He would bribe opponents into losing the match by promising them wishes.
