This is what I like about the gimmick. He became his character, he didn't start out with it. Nick Dinsmore is in a bit of trouble, because we only know him as "Eugene". Burchill we know isn't really a pirate.
For some reason, I would love to see a match between Paul Burchill & William Regal, where the loser has to take on the gimmick of the winner. So if Burchill wins, Regal is a pirate; but if Regal wins, Burchill loses the pirtate gimmick.
In that match, Burchill pulls out the victory. Burchill then pulls off his wig and loses his pirate accessories. Burchill then cuts a promo saying that he planned this all along, and that Regal is going to make a fine pirate. So PB reveals the pirate gimmick was just a way for Burchill to embarass Regal and get attention for himself. Burchill then plays a serious face while Regal is stuck with an enforced pirate gimmick until he gets drafted or wins a match or something of the like.
