Unhappy Gimmicks and Females and Female Gimmicks.

My friend (who's into E-fedding) was complaining about how difficult it is to come up with an original gimmick for a female wrestler. I figured up until said point that the only reason the female gimmicks in the WWE sucked was...cuz...it was the WWE. And they tend to have sucky gimmicks. Not to mention that the chicks aren't usually worth going brain dead to make a gimmick for...

...but anyway, I realized that, holy hell, females ARE hard to come up with gimmicks for. I mean, save for Victoria's former craziness, and Gail Kim being a vague Matrix throwback, about the only real gimmick any females have is being eye candy.

So seeing as I don't have alot of posts and I'd like to establish myself as NOT being a dumbass, I pose this question to you: What kind of gimmick would YOU give a female wrestler? Should females even HAVE gimmicks? It could help out my friend, establish me slightly (at least as a new guy) and give you something to waste time with...all at the same time! It's like Christmas.

Though, for that matter, original gimmicks for guys could be looked at the same way. I mean, almost every gimmick floating around is just taken off of another and slightly revamped. The egotistical youngster. The lady's man. The dark, goth figure. The extreme and/or hardcore punk kid. The big guy that seems unstoppable but doesn't talk much. The Asian martial artist. The hardcore enthusiast that attempts to use weapons in every match. Most "original" gimmicks are just old gimmicks combined, or gimmicks with new features thrown in. Nick Dinsmore has the only nigh original gimmick I can think of in the current WWE...and he's wrestling as a "retard."

Is there really such thing as an original gimmick anymore? Have all the plausibly original gimmicks already been run through? Is there nothing left? Will the future of wrestling involve psycho rappers and people with killer cyborg gimmicks and angry chefs and power rangers?

WILL EVERYBODY IN THE FUTURE JUST BE GENERIC BLUE CHIPPERS?!

...

Damn, I kinda rambled, didn't I? I'm tired. Painting houses sucks. Leave me alone.
