The gimmicks did indeed make the show even more entertaining.
With that being said,at the time you had writers who knew how
to make all (or at least most) of the gimmicks work.Many of those
gimmicks could be used today and would still be over and work,if
used properly.
The problem is,WWE has came up with even more cartoony
gimmicks,and has ran the idea of "gimmicks" into total lame-
ness.I do agree with you,the gimmicks were more entertaining
back then,and the wrestling (in ring performance) was much
more entertaining as well.
