Random Thought #1: "The Iron Man"

**Xero** · 04-08-2008, 11:06 PM

Would a gimmick where someone only wrestles every other PPV/big show in only 60 minute Iron Man matches work? And, more importantly, who could pull off such a gimmick?

The idea I have is that he'll never wrestle, but will promo on TV. This also means no tag matches.

I think this would be a great "realistic" gimmick in that he'll train for his next opponent, and you don't have to worry about burning the fans out with him. Plus it would give his matches actual builds and make them feel more epic other than "match --> match --> beatdown --> "I hate you" promo --> match --> blowoff match".

I suppose this would have to be on someone who is already established. Honestly I'd like to see Angle in this gimmick. Especially if he ever came back to WWE, he would have a MUCH better schedule, even better than TNA's.

Yeah, that's just a random thought I had while thinking about something Cena-related.
