Think of Val Venis' pornstar gimmick. It was doomed to fail (in terms of Val using that gimmick to become a main-eventer), but it was pretty decent for the SHORT term in garnerning interest. Val received respectable face heat for over a year because of the gimmick.
The WWE can always change Dunsmore's gimmick at a later date.

Val Venis was doomed to fail? huh?
Val was just an updated version of Rick Rude, which was an over gimmick. Yeah he had to tweak it to main event, but it wasn't the kind of gimmick that made him look like a moron. It was a gimmick that showed he got chicks, which is never bad.
The problem with this Dinsmore gimmick is that he is going to be portrayed as a moron, which isn't good. With this gimmick he's basically going to have to say that he was just faking in order to get into the WWE, which is always horrible.
Like I said before, why not use this gimmick with a guy with no talent?
