Worst gimmick of all time

[TheAndroid]

Don't re-post anything somebody said already, read the thread, it gets annoying when ten different people say the same thing ten diferent times.

That being said, let's get the obvious out of the way:
Boogeyman

Also, there is:
Xanta Claus
The Oddities
Gobbledy Gooker
The Goon
"Sexual Chocolate" Mark Henry

Any others?

 

[The not-so Great Khali]

Vito? The cross-dressing Italian stalion. He went undefeated for quite a while and then they had him lose to some punk (i think it was The Miz, i can't remember)

 

[attila]

I cant remember exactly what it was called but that stupid Minotaur gimmick back in the early to mid 90s in the WWF. Doink the clown was stupid. Oh dude!! Almost anything from the WWE circa 1993-1995. Fuck that was a bad time for them.

I agree with everything starting at "Also there is:" but the Boogeyman? Hardly. I actually like the Boogeyman; Very entertaining character: now his wrestling is not that great but the gimmick is actually very over with the crowd and I know I tune to smackdown to see what weird stunt he is going to pull next. Maybe the weirdest gimmich but certainly far from the worst. I would like to Add Vito to your list by the way; No matter how many wins u gave him he was never going to amount to anything with a dress on.

ummmmmmm.... wasnt the rules to NOT repeat anyone????



NEways,

i would say the yeti from wcw. that or the SHOCKMASTER

 

[Deuces]

...Ok I agree with all you guys Vito may be gay but hes also gayer then anybody i the world and the boogeyman rules he is good hes undeafeted very entertainment

 

[RVDgurl]

How about the Repo Man from back in the day. And Viscera: he wears silk pajamas to the ring! Also, I got to see the Boogeyman for the first time at an ECW/Smackdown show last night and the gimmick, not to mention the wrestler, is terrible. The only thing worse than the Boogeyman gimmick is the writing and booking in regard to Smackdown.... oh yeah, that's why I don't watch it.

 

[dj_spunk_rat]

the Zombie in ECW thank god he was only there for a week. Big DICK JOhnson!!.
when I remember more from WCW I will get back to you I think the list is gonna be long haha

 

[crippler2525]

Im surprised that anybody has mentioned eugene gimick,it is stupid and dumb for a great performer that is nick dinsmore(check him when he wrestled by his name in ovw)and know with the heel turn that nobody cares its just worse

 

[Big Fella]

I didn't like that Kiss character in WCW, and Papa Shango never exactly seemed right to me either. Pretty lame IMO.

Also, I've never been a big fan of Undertakers gimmick, but the way he was booked during the Corporate Ministry run was pretty terrible too.

 

[Big Fella]

How could I forget Red Rooster? A chicken/human combo? Awful!

 

[bman420]

3 Count , the Boy Band Gimmick in WCW with Evan Karagus, Gregory Helms and Shannon Moore

Cavo Gurrereo's Kerwin White and sales man gimmick.

Dustin Runnels' right choices gimmick, where he "prayed" before the match.

Leave It to Beaver Gimmick with the Head Bangers.

 

[TheAndroid]

Vito? The cross-dressing Italian stalion. He went undefeated for quite a while and then they had him lose to some punk (i think it was The Miz, i can't remember)

The man who ended the dress reign was Elijah Burke, due to interference from Terkay. One of the last matches before they were shipped off to ECW and never heard from again.

Ugh, I can't believe I remember this but, Meat was an awful gimmick

Mike Awesome's "That 70's Guy" gimmick

and... Naked Mideon.

 

[BillyBean]

Not the worst but Reverend Devon and Decon Batista was pretty bad

The artist formally know as Goldust was tripe aswell

 

[spydee76]

I would have to say Issac Yankem,The Hurricane, Dude Love, and probably the worst of all time "Dangerous" Danny Davis.

 

[Matisyahu]

By far the fake Razor Ramon and Diesel storyline....pure crap from a guy who would become Kane. But then again he did have a lot of the worst gimmicks ever
Honorable mention: Issac Yankem DDS, Xanta Claus, and of course Christmas Creature.

Then of course theres the Gobbledygooker, Billy and Chuck gay angle, That 70's Guy Mike Awesome, Fat Lady Loving Mike Awesome, Fake Undertaker, Naked Mideon, man I could do this all day

 

[xxmonsterpimpxx]

Hey RVDGurl dont bash on smackdown. you only watch raw better cause its been going on longer. If you like john cena than i guess hes cool but hes not better than batista.

 

[NDN Souljaa]

The Artist formerly known as Prince

3 count

Hole in One Barry Darsow

yeaaa theyre all WCW guys but whateverrrr

 

[jdawg0720]

I'd have to say the Bastion Booger character....what the hell was he supposed to be some sewer "monster". Duke "The Dumpster" Droese was also pretty dumb.

Sorry about repeating some of the already mentioned earlier.

Anyways I had to name a few more of the questionable choices as far as gimmicks. First lets look at WWE/F

WWE: The Red Rooster, Dean Douglas (Shane Douglas still hasn't got over it)
Tug Boat (hahahaha), The Sultan, The Executioner, Adam Bomb, Rico's gay character, Steven "A Real Man's Man" Regal, 1-2-3 Kid, Paul Burchill's Pirate gimmick, Rocky Maivia, Faarooq The Spartan (LOL I miss that), Tatanka the referee Hata

WCW: Hak (why didn't they just call him Sandman), GI Bro, All of the Misfits in action, Kevin Nash as Vinny Vegas, Master Blaster, Oz, etc., The One Warrior Nation, "Celebrities can kick our wrestlers ASSES gimmick" featuring Karl Malone, Dennis Rodman, Jay Leno, and David Arquette, Positively Kanyon, The Misfits and ICP wrestling on Nitro, Kwee Wee, Disco Inferno, Berlyn, Sevyn, The Wall, Glacier (I keep hearing the Mortal Kombat voice saying "Sub-Zero"

 

[TheRealDC]

The Red Rooster from early 90's
The Maiestro (the piano playing dude from WCW, he played piano during his entrance and had bubbles floating around him.)
All of Lex Luger's gimmicks
The giants in the business except for Big Show and Andre, (Great Khali, Giant Gonzalez, and any other big dude, they never have anything except for their size mostly.)
Umaga
and finally the gimmic that never was, The Mutilator, LMAO, props to anyone that knows what I'm talking about.

I would have to say Issac Yankem,The Hurricane, Dude Love, and probably the worst of all time "Dangerous" Danny Davis.

Why did you even knock on Mick Foley... thats lines to throw you to the wolves.

 

[spydee76]

Akeem, "Adorable" Adrian Adonis, anything Tigboat/Typhoon has done, the whole Right To Censor and any of the midgets.

 

[TheGoldinChyld]

I don't care about repeats. THE GOON sucked!
Fake Diesel & Razor Ramon
Mideon & Viscera from that Corporation/Undertaker group.
Flex Kavana/Rocky Maivia
Right To Censor(sometimes kinda funny but really annoying)
