I think Ziggler would be good for the loose cannon gimmick. Awhile back I think they tried to use it for Brian Kendrick but that didnt completely go over. Besides Ziggler I think even Morrison would be decent for it. If/When his heel turn goes over he has the image and look, just turn him into a raving lunatic. |

I'd like to see John Cena use the Loose Cannon gimmick. He could be doing a promo and suddenly jump into the crowd and beat the hell out of someone who was booing him.

I really don't think I'd want to see anyone else play the Honky Tonk Man other then Roy Wayne Farris. He looks and sounds just like Elvis, so I don't believe no other wrestler could pull it off. Roy Wayne Farris is perfect, and irreplaceable.

I wonder if brutus beefcake would get over with current wwe fans or if his gimmick would work with anyone else.
Also maybe the lethal weapon Steve Blackman could get over with the fans. |

Million Dollar Corporation - Managed by The Million Dollar Man William Regal, Ted Dibiase JR, Ezekiel Jackson, and JBL(If he came back) The New Rockers - managed by Marty Jannetty and HBK - Paul London and Evan Bourne Mr.Perfect - Dolph Ziggler Harlem Heat - Booker T and R-Truth |

Idiot? That's harsh talk for such a junior member. How about you post your critique instead of coming off as simple and a jerk. Like this:
Million Dollar Corporation - I would LOVE the Million Dollar Man to return in a managerial capacity. The economic climate is PERFECT for such a group. Regal/DiBiase/Jackson/JBL - I don't get this one at all. Regal is amazing as a leader of a group but you should repost a way to bind these guys together. New Rockers - Not something I want to see. They revamped the Rockers in the late 90's with Al Snow & Marty Jannetty and it was barely a tag team footnote. Better leaving this alone. Dolph Ziggler - I def. see the visual comparison to Hennig. He is also very athletic and cocky. So yes, very similar and this gimmick would help him progress away from wrestling Khali and Kane every week. Harlem Heat 2.0 - not a fan of this one either. Mainly because it is not plausible. Booker is basically retired with no interest in returning to WWE & R-Truth is too good of a wrestler to be pigeonholed in such a "stevie ray" type gimmick. Remember, Booker could really wrestle while Stevie was nothing more than muscle. This paring just doesn't do it for me. So in summation, Spaff, quit being a cunt. ![]() |

Nick Dinsmore in a darker 'Jokeresque' Doink the Clown would be pretty fucking money. It would make even more sense now since he was stuck with that retarded gimmick. He'd have a perfect reason to be disgruntled and want to hide his identity. He doesn't want to make other people laugh. He did that forever and got nothing out of it. Now, he just wants to make HIMSELF laugh...at any cost!
God, somebody book this right now. |

Nick Dinsmore returns to WWE after a long stint in rehab and months of therapy under the tutelage of CM Punk. Come to find out, he wasn't a fucking retard...He was just hocked up on goofballs.
Now put your hand on the monitor and repeat after me........ |

Not really "old" in the sense, but old in the fact that it was, and isn't currently being done.
Jimmy Jacob's emo gimmick. I think it'd get over great as a heel/tweener gimmick. Especially if whoever does it writes music/poetry. Not sure who could do it though... Maybe Heath Slater if they died his hair and paled him up a little. Also, I agree 100% w/ Ziggler being Mr. Perfect. Also, Randy Orton should get a bit of the old Jake the Snake "Trust me" gimmick. |

Orton would rock that Jake schtick. Also, Jeff Hardy could do the emo gimmick.

Also, we need a new Nailz character, but do it right.
Like have some midcarder who gets injured, instead of running an injury angle, have some sort of story where he assaulted someone, and was sent to jail. When he comes back, just have him be totally different, hardened, etc. Imagine if they did that with Kofi, and he came back just vicious. |

I agree, but he was brought in like that. I think if you did it as a story to an already existing character who had to leave for a bit, it's go over a lot better. Plus, think about how Kofi was when he trashed the car, imagine him coming back like that all the time.

They should do that if he comes back in fact. Completely play oblivious to TNA and whatever the court ruling is and say he was in jail. But never say for what. Punk would have a field day with it. |

It would actually be kinda funny to see R-Truth do that emo gimmick too. Imagine if he was writing different emo raps to come to the ring with every match. It would be hilarious, I think.

Yes, THAT crush was awesome, but the "Jailbird" Crush with Clarence Mason sucked. Remember when he had braids and a tattoo on his face? It happened almost the exact same way WWKD? described.

Pretty much any classic stable comes to mind (at least ones with a set amount of guys and not a small army like the nWo). Wrestling works best when there is a major heel stable fucking everyone else's shit up.
