@Tyler Durden mentioned this to me in a PM a few days back and after thinking it over I have to agree with him. So listen to the pitch:

Remember when Charlie Haas had the copycat gimmick? When he came out as Charlito, Charlie Haas Layfield, Haas Cena etc? Let's give that gimmick to Hornswoggle. Have him come out as miniature versions of legends and stars of old and current WWE. Mini-Hogan, Mini-Rock, Mini-Austin etc. Would make for some good comedy, not to mention some easy heat for heels looking to catch the attention of the fans when they attack him and beat him down.

Anyone else liking this idea by the Yorkshire gentleman?

Yeah thats a cool idea mini-Rock etc could be hilarious and make some entertaining segments for adults and kids alike. Especially if he can mimic the poses like the eyebrow of Rock etc...

Meh, don't feel like it would lead to anything besides cheap comedic relief.

Which is all it needs to lead to.
But then it'd just be filler, whereas we could see something else. In 3 hours, I see where you're coming from, and I'd appreciate the idea. No problems with it, and it's better than some shitty random match thrown together for no reason.

That's really all Hornswoggle is good for anyway. I like the idea.

The little bastard throws a mean lariat, that's good enough for me.

I think they'd just get backlash for it.

and he only just got a new gimmick.

How about Hornswoggle stops getting airtime instead
This. I am not a huge fan of little people getting to keep job's because they are sideshow talent, i'm sure he's been around WWE long enough to have some value backstage or with talent, but who knows.

Hornswoggle's actually a cool little dude.
