Was DDP's motivational speaker-ish gimmick a punishment? It was terrible but he really managed to get it over and eventually became a decent mid card face.

intentionally bad gimmicks given to wrestlers to make them look stupid/silly for doing something naughty.

Was Goldust a punishment or just a bad idea that Dustin made work?

No way Goldust was a creative, innovative gimmick, not a punishment at all.

She was supposed to leach off the popularity of those ''Madea'' movies I don't think it was punishment like Moppy was to Saturn, but it wasn't going to help him at all. I think it was more for the comedy than anything.

Was Goldust a punishment or just a bad idea that Dustin made work? Not a way to punish Dustin, but I think it had something to do with cheesing off his father which depends on who was on creative at that point.

So you guys have mentioned Golddust, but nobody's mentioned Dusty Rhodes?? I've always heard that Vince made him wrestle in polkadots as payback (for what, I'm not too sure...I guess for being an NWA guy) and Dusty still stayed over.
Can't think of any punishment gimmicks really, so it's hard to say which ones got over. I mean, there's been wrestlers with bad gimmicks, but a wrestler is usually punished by being buried on tv, or just being outright released.
