Sounded like X-Pac heat to me...

I don't know what there's a real change from dead crowd to "get off my TV!"
Anyway, Hassan DIDN'T do anything revolutionary, but how many of the gimmicks are really new? Most of them are repackages (Masters is a blatant example). Which brings me back to "so what?" What is the point of mentioning that it had been done before? Masters has been done before (Even done by Jindrak not too long ago) as well, so I'm missing where the part where this makes a difference in the argument is. He still got a reaction, still got a strong response whereas Masters couldn't. Hassan had solid Mic skills, Masters does not. Hassan, while he did not do anything spectacular, proved himself to be a solid (albeit unproven) wrestler. Masters is not. Whether he's green or he's crap, he shouldn't be on TV, and it shows.
Dave Batista has a very generic gimmick, and even in his early days he garnered a crowd response. I'm not talking last week, or last month, but in his debut period. Hardcore Holly has NO gimmick, and he's gotten himself over with the crowd. Scotty 2 hotty is a jobber, he gets over with the crowd.
