I actually loved it when Curt Hawkins & Tyler Reks showed up and played awkward male strippers. They hinted at it one week "No, your other job" and then Reks and Hawkins came out in tights made to look like male underwear and Hawkins was so perfectly awkward that it was kind of funny. Reks was more natural, because it had been implied that it was one of his jobs before arriving in the WWE. I don't think it would have worked as a long-term thing, but in the short-term, it was pretty harmless and was a gimmick that was aware of itself.
