What Wrestlecrap gimmicks could work/continue now?

[segaz]

I admit, I think IRS could still work now. What with inflation being the way it is, he could come in and tell everyone how this Christmas if they don't pay their bills it'll be Uncle Sam they risk reciveing a visit, not Saint Nick!

So what other Wrestlecrap gimmicks could work or continue in todays WWE? And this is not just limited to wrestlers themselves, I'm talking angles, props as well. Maybe Brother Love show could return, or perhaps the Undertaker/Warrior could finish their never finished feud. Maybe Al could say he wasn't buried, it was his own daughter who buried him. Maybe the Gooker could go evil. Maybe Big Show could finally make amends with his mother, and forgive her for saying he was a nasty bastard. Maybe Triple H could have a rematch with the Ultimate Warrior. They could work...right?

Don't just put "______ will never work for WWE again" if you disagree with any of my examples, give me a real reason!

Daminan Demento could work if he is allowed to cut promos this time around and not job to the Undertaker 3 months after he debutes

Call me a nut but for some reason I have a hunch that The Red Rooster could work infront of a current WWE audience I don't know why I'm thinking this.

Los Conquistidores would be gold (no pun intended).

The Powers of Pain would also work out very well and could bring some status back to the ailing tag division in WWE.

[VenomFang]

Salvatore Sincere would work because thats basically Santino Marella's gimmick already.

In line with the reason behind why segaz thinks IRS could work again. Under that theroy, they could bring back the Repo Man. When he came back in the gimmick battle royal, he got a huge pop of heat. I thought Repo Man was a clever gimmick, just never got the right push. I see great potential with both gimmicks in today's day and age.

that pun was totally intended

Evil Doink would of worked earlier this year when the dark knight was released.

Coach- the manager played by John Tolos, not Jonathan Coachman. He can mentor MVP in order to break the losing streak. I guess Gary Spivey also works in this role.

Heel Tony Schiavone, but only if they have him feud with Michael Cole in a Loser Leaves Town match with Last Man Standing rules. In this scenario, both would be knocked out at the same time, rendering then unable to answer the ten count- therefore both lose and both leave WWE. More importantly, Michael Cole leaves WWE.

Good lord, people.........we're in a recession.

Repo Man.

I believe Mordechai could work if given the proper build-up.

Repo would of been a god in the hardcore division. I frequently ponder the stuff he could of done with Crash.

I think a ton of wrestlecrap gimmicks could have worked if booked right. I think IRS mostly gets a big wrestlecrap stamp of approval was because of the ridiculous clothing with the tie and all. Who wrestles in a tie?

some guys that I don't think would ever work though are Bastion Booger and Mantaur.

Well it's easy to say that considering that they didn't work the first time

If they gave evil Doink an updated, edgier look, I agree.

[doinkmark]

Duke Drose could've worked in the Attitude Era's Hardcore division. I mean, come on! The man carried around a trashcan! Sgt. Slaughter Evil Iraqi could still work today, but foreign heels and American good guys are timeless. Likewise, the Nation and other race-based stables could still work, because racism and gangs are also timeless. I also agree with most of you that IRS/Repo Man could still work. Oh, and Jean Pierre Lafitte and Super Giant Ninja could still work today, cuz pirates and ninjas are still popular. Though I guess WWE could also use Paul Burchill and Shinobi for that.

[Dave at the Movies]

Yeah for some reason I always liked Duke The Dumpster. I thought he had a pretty good feud with HHH.
