Beaver Cleavage was awesome in a bad way. I remember they pulled the plug on it after like 2 weeks? Then he did that dumb worked shoot thing and became Chaz. :lol:
 
I got a few gimmicks for ya...

Behold Mantaur... essentially some fat guy they convinced to wear a bull's head to the ring and go "Moooooooo!!" for his entire match.

Next up, Phantasio, whose gimmick was so bad that he only appeared in the ring once.

Sometimes, the people who write the wrestling scripts decide to bring in other properties from outside the ring. Like homocidal dolls...

...or Robocop.

...and if all else fails, a wardrobe change may be in order.

Did you read the Kane book, Journey Into Darkness? It mashes together all the Taker/Bearer/Kane continuity to date with bits of irl Glenn and Mark, and adds a frosting of its own insane shit too, like Paul Bearer's ice cream addiction.

Oh really? Like they tried to explain his kane career from a character standpoint?

Did they determine whether it was, in fact, Snitsky's fault?

It's been years since I've read it and never since I've read it sober, but iirc Lita / Matt / Kane / etc wasn't in there.
 
this never made it to tv but the vignettes were great

 
Dalton Castle has his gimmick down to a T.

The exotic/weirdo gimmick is a hard one to pull off without being offensive/downright crude.

Dalton is money.
