Gimmicks to the gimmickless?

[louissiscool]

Zeb Colter already explained why he chose Cesaro along time ago:



And honestly, Cesaro does racism a lot better than Swagger, because Cesaro has better mic skills than Swagger. All Swagger does is yell "We the people". Cesaro owns his gimmick.

But he goes everywhere and insults everyone for being imigrants illegal or otherwise so what he says here just seems differant to what he says when hes coming out to the ring plus i really dont like racsist gimmicks people say swearing and blood is too much for kids but casual biggots thats ok lol.

I thnk Cena needs a new gimmick. The "Take Your Vitimans and Say Your Prayers" Gimmick is stale. Anyone agree?

He can't really change his gimmick since it's not really much of one, it's an extension of his real life personality to a large extent. It'll only come when/if he turns heel, and that ain't coming anytime soon.

I would also change a bit Sandow's gimmick. He can win the WH title and I don't think his current gimmick is the appropriate one tbh

Sandow already plays one of the best personalities in WWE today to perfection IMO. His current gimmick can play well into holding a world title, as he can talk about how he's gonna add much needed class and dignity to the world championship that's been tainted with disgrace by some of the people who have held it.

As one of the minority on the internet that doesn't want a Cena heel turn, I have a feeling one might be coming sooner than expected.

I also think they should push the strength of Kaitlyn into more of a gimmick but not into a heel turn, with Layla turning last week there are only 4 active face Diva's on the roster and 5 heels. This isn't counting Tamina who has already been both heel and face, Alicia Fox who changes more than some people change their underwear and Rosa Mendes who sits more on the heel side of the fence. Maybe she could take on the role that Beth Phoenix left wide open when she left and team-up with Natalya a little more?

Heel Ryder, with something to prove. Have Cena come out trolling him in his own gear, and having him flip the fuck out would be great. I know i only care because i want him on tv, but i would kill to see him turn heel, since his babyface deal would force it to be a short, but possibly decent run. Get a title on him, heel vs heel match. Have him outdo someone, low blow, use tights, (no not a bottle shot to the head) and give him the ego boost. Especially with Vince on tv, it could be great.

There are a couple of guys on the WWE roster right now that have no character other than "I'm a good guy wrestler yay!" or "I'm a bad guy wrestler grrr". And while some wrestlers can create a character out of personality and subtle character traits like for example Bryan, Triple H, Shawn Michaels and build a gimmick from that. Other's have or might need a more fleshed out and clear character to really shine, a prime example is Bray Wyatt.

So if you could take one of these characterless wrestlers and give them a gimmick, what would it be? It doesn't have to be a gimmick that takes someone to the main event, solid mid carder works well enough.

Mason Ryan has been improving down in NXT as of late, still not the greatest in ring but far from as horrible as he once was. But he needs a character badly unless he get the old Batista chants again if he came back to the main roster. I think a "modern Gladiator" gimmick could work for him, he has the look for it without a doubt (plus he worked as one on TV in England before going to the WWE so it would be a nice shoutout to his real life). With the right mouthpiece I think he could work as a decent mid card big guy/monster under that gimmick if his ring work keeps improving.

Who would you give a gimmick to to help them out and what would it be?

Talking of batista there do you remember when he was reverend d-vons little bitch ? lol

I don't see Ryder being a believable serious heel. In part due to him just not sounding that threatening when trying to be serious. And in part because his offense isn't that believable (his punches can look pretty weak).

If Ryder was to be turned heel he would have to be the kind that gets beat up most of the match and then cheats to win and gets a big head out of it (ergo his old ECW heel character). That's the only way I see him work as a heel.

that is exactly what i was calling for. I do love the boot, honestly.

He wouldnt be great, but id get to see him on tv weekly, and he deserves that.

The Broski boot would make a superb heel move!

I'd give Kaitlyn a better character as a tough Diva in the way Beth was, Have her go over a male wrestler (a Jobber anyways). She needs to be pushed as strong!
