| Me and my friends were talking about this the other day so I thought I'd throw it in here for shits and giggles. Bad gimmicks, every wrestler, no matter how big, has had them. What are some of the bad ones you remember, off the top of your head. I can think of countless...
- Stone Cold...The Ringmaster(wwf)
- Triple H...The Bluebloods(wcw)
- Kevin Nash...Vinnie Vegas(wcw)
- The Undertaker...Mean Mark Callas(wcw)
- Mick Foley...I'm sorry but Dude Love had to be the stupidest thing he has ever done and I love Mick(wwf)
- Kane...pick 'em, Fake Diesel or Isaac Yankem(wwf)
- Justin Credible...Aldo Montoya(wwf)
- The Godfather...pick 'em The goodfather or Kama Mustafa(wwf)
- Goldust...Dustin Rhodes
- Jeff Jarrett...the first incarnation of Je double F Ja double R e double t, complete with half-assed manager(wwf)
- Booker T...GI Bro, Worst Gimmick EVER
- Chris Candido...Skip and Zip, the bodydonnas
- Ric Flair...Black Scorpion. First person, if anyone, that remembers this one I'll give them 8 bonus points.
Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all.

Actually, William Regal was part of the Bluebloods as Lord Steven Regal, along with Squire(?) David Taylor. HHH's WCW gimmicks were Terra Ryzin and Jean-Paul Levesque, the French-Canadian bully/snob.

This is what happens when you let Ole Anderson book on the fly. The only reason it went on so long was because Ole had no idea who he wanted to end up as the Scorpian.
For lousy gimmicks, what will forever live in my mind is Shockmaster: the guy who was Tugboat & Typhoon in the WWF makes his debut in WCW wearing a glittery StormTrooper helmet, smashes through a wall, and immediately falls flat on his face on live TV. THAT, my friends, was WrestleCrap.

Actually, the site is up again, although not in its full form. Some is better than none, though.
And thank you very much, Faceman. :)

| I would have to say Doink,the Red Rooster, Blue Blazer, The Giant Machine, Cowboy Bob Orton with the pink hat. The Midnight rider, I can't think of any recent gimmicks.
It ain't easy being greasy in a world full of cleanliness and you know, all that other madness. |
