These wrestlers had the pretty boy type gimmicks: Gorgeous George "Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers "Stunning" Steve Austin "Marvelous" Marc Mero "Ravishing" Rick Rude "The Model" Rick Martel "The Masterpiece" Chris Masters "Pretty" Paul Roma And then there were these good-looking types who admired themselves in the mirror: "Sexy Boy" Shawn Michaels: a heart-shaped mirror that Sensational Sherri carried "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff: a hand mirror "Gorgeous" Jimmy Garvin: a hand mirror "The Narcissist" Lex Luger: a full-length mirror "The Real Deal" Rob Wright: a hand mirror "The Reflection of Perfection" Mark Jindrak: a full-length mirror and a hand mirror "Pretty Boy" Scotty Riggs: a hand mirror "Dashing" Cody Rhodes: a digital mirror and a hand mirror. Any others that you can think of?

"Marvelous" Marc Mero was not a pretty boy gimmick. It was more of a boxing nickname.
Johnny B. Badd on the other hand...well, he thought he was as pretty as a little girl.

Mark Jindrak was awesome in that Reflection of Perfection gimmick. Teddy yelling about how awesome he was during his entrance really made it.

Not quite. He was more of a perfectionist like Dolph Ziggler.

I don't think "Marvelous" Marc Mero was a pretty boy gimmick. I think the Marvelous bit had to do with his boxer gimmick at the time and boxers do have those nicknames in their names.
By the way, wasn't Sylvan a pretty boy post La Resistance? Before he had that Ambassador of Quebec gimmick, he had a pretty boy gimmick I think.

"Adorable" Adrian Adonis ring a bell? (I know it was a back-handed nickname, but that's what he was supposed to be.) "Buff" Bagwell? (If he wasn't a pretty boy, I don't know who else.) Edit: Billy & Chuck. Not to mention Rico.

When Kenny Dykstra briefly teamed up with Johnny Nitro he carried a hand mirror with him to fit in with Nitro and Melina.

"Adorable" Adrian Adonis had a gimmick that was a cross between Gorgeous George and Goldust.

And Sylvan did the don't hit me in the face freakouts during this gimmick... Also for some reason I really enjoyed him under this gimmick... maybe it was the Music

I like the pretty boy gimmicks best when the dude is ugly, like Adrian Adonis, Pretty boy Doug Somers, Playboy Buddy Rose and The Heartthrobs.

I was always perplexed by how Flair was consdered a "pretty boy" in his time considering his Cyrano de Bergerac nose.
