The best person I can compare the gimmick to right now in "mainsteam wrestling"..... would be Bull Dempsey, but he's got his own spin on it.
but you're "nobody" so to speak. That would be all well and good if you were working for WWE on a weekly basis on national TV and that gimmick was over and people knew what it was. But that's like 100 people and a small Youtube viewership. Anybody that you point in the direction of this as an example of your work to try and gain bookings elsewhere isn't going to think it's part of your gimmick, they're just going to think that you don't have much going on. Your size is your gimmick, you don't need to try and overcomplicate things, especially when you're so inexperienced. Play to your strengths and keep it basic, you have to walk before you can run.

.... This is actually a youtube video of the episodic television show for Reality Of Wrestling which is broadcasted on the Network Soul of the South which has 30 affiliates across the US (to give that some perspective, ROH has around 50 affiliates for their television show)

The "product" so to speak is portrayed as a WWE style televised wrestling production, as opposed to an "indie show". The difference between the two is that on RAW or even NXT, guys don't come out and "argue with the audience". It's about "telling a story" to the camera and the people at home, not necessarily to the audience there.
