WWE Needs More Gimmick Names

**Corkscrewed** · 12-15-2003, 11:24 PM

Hello, Mr. Knowitall. He was saying that in the 1980s, there were a LOT of gimmick names and not a lot of "real" names, whereas it's the opposite now.

So before you try to show someone up, why don't you get your head unstuck from your ass and understand something correctly.

I dont mind the real name thing, but I think the guys need to come up with more nicknames such as Stone Cold so they can stand out.

The other big problem, and this is happening with virtually all the guys from OVW lately is that they all look like generic clones of one another. They are all tall, jacked up, and have brand new tatoos all over the place. What ends up happening is all these new guys end up looking the same, and nobody stands out, and as a result nobody gets over. I mean go to a casual fan and offer them $10,000 to tell the difference between Matt Morgan and Mark Jindrak. My guess is that 99 times out of 100 you'd keep your money.

The sad thing is that a guy like Mick Foley who wound up being one of the greatest superstars of all time would never even get a second look in the current WWE, and to me thats just wrong.
