The best gimmick ever?

[Lover Boy]

What do you guys think is the best gimmick ever in pro wrestling history?

 

[Wang Chung]

Undertaker by far. He has had the longest gimmick that was sold and bought by fans.

Yeah haft to top that.

My favorite is Goldust though.

 

[Sabretooth]

I was also gonna say Undertaker.

But Shawn michaels is a close second. How many men can wear so many sparkles and still be cool? :

 

[Wang Chung]

Best is Shockmaster. How can you forget the sparkly storm trooper helmet.

Barbarian was a decent gimmick along with Warlord. They both sold that gimmick well for majority of the 80's and early 90's.

Sting would be at the top of my list, right there with Taker. They've both evolved over the years and have managed to not lose a step. Both ended up being franchise players for their respective companies.

Road Warriors for me, they really looked like they were in to rip your head off.

Damn right! Road Warriors just had that look. I've always wanted a legit pair of spiked pads lol

THIS!! Undoubtedly the biggest and most powerful and iconic tag team of the last 30 years. They were legitimately believable as huge powerhouse heels and baby faces. They also were one of the only guys/teams who could be heelish yet still be fan favorites. When that DONNNNNN of Iron Man would blare through the speakers, people would go through the damn roof!

But as for gimmicks, Undertaker hands down. He is the one outrageous gimmick that even though was always a little cartooney, was pulled off perfectly to make it kind of believable and entertaining. I always thought the Issac Yankem and Papa Shango gimmicks were so ridiculous and corny, but the Undertaker gimmick is the one true "gimmick" that could get over.

honestly he will always be associated with Snakes and not to mention whenever a DDT is used you think of him and Snakes…there is no one that comes close imo
