I would agree, no matter how dumb a character might seem, if the guy has off the chart charisma, it is gonna work on some level.

Now of course it would depend completely on the guy and not the gimmick. Look at Velveteen Dream, a weird rip off of Prince, who himself was a 1980's wrestling gimmick in real life, and yet Patrick from Tough Enough is one of the most OVER guys with both the fans and other wrestlers.

It's cause of his charisma and fully embracing it.

My point is not if someone like Brian Cage can be over in the WWE (where he'd fit in easily physically with Hogan or the Road Warriors) I'm asking if someone whose offense is tackle, line, slam, sell for a bit, then punch, punch do his finisher 1,2,3. Someone who the "smarks" would hate because the Almighty Meltzer wouldn't like because he doesn't do 15 finishers and 4 dives a match (if that makes sense) Would someone like that be over with you, personally?

Does he still get to use steroids while everyone else looks like they do? Then yes he would still get over.
