Create-A-Gimmick

Yeah I haven't seen one of these threads in awhile so I thought I'd start a new one. Just post some original gimmick ideas complete with finishing moves, catch phrases, etc. Maybe some of the guys on the board who are training or are about to begin training will find something they'd like to use. Let's see how creative everybody can be.

I've came up with loads of gimmicks over the past few years. Mainly for the tiny indy fed I use to help run and wrestle for. My friend and I came up with one which we never got to use but it was a photographer gimmick. My friend called him "The Shutterbug" although I didn't really like that name. Basically the guy just came to the ring carrying one of those huge cameras with the big flash on them. His finisher would be called the Snapshot and his catchphrase would be "Get The Picture?". Also, he would sometimes use the camera as a foreign object.

Another Wrestlecrap-ish gimmick we came up with was Francis U. Kraven or FUK. Basically he was supposed to be an arrogant, rich snob. Where most guys with names like Francis would insist that people not call them that but call them by a more masculine name, Francis U. Kraven would insist that people call him Francis rather than Frank or something like that. He would also wear a t-shirt that says FUK U which means Francis U. Kraven University. Corny idea, I know, but it would have worked in our little fed. We had some crazy gimmicks there.

I came up with a stoner gimmick once that I was going to give to this hippie looking guy but he didn't want to do it. It was called "Super Dude". Basically he just wore tye-dye and just came out looking all stoned with the bloodshot eyes and all. In the middle of a match he would get the muchies and so he would leave the ring and steal different snacks from people in the crowd and munch of them before getting back in the ring to continue the match. THen I thought about just putting him in a tag team with a similar character called "Groovy Guy". But I never got to use any of these characters. Pity, we could have had some real fun with them.
