Had never heard of the guy before a thread I started yesterday. But after watching some vids of his work and a few interviews, I gotta say-I like Ophidius. No chance it will ever happen, but he would have made an awesome addition to the X Division when it was still about no limits rather than weight limits. And with how into his character he is, I can't help but imagine how awesome it would have been for him to be teamed with Shark Boy in his prime; I'm talking pre-stone cold Shark Boy, when he still did things like bite people on the keester. Comedy gold for sure.

I have no idea who Ophidius is...
Do you mean Ophidian? If so no. Dude is way too talented to be a comedy jobber.
He's also not really a full on comedic wrestler either... he has some spots since you know CHIKARA but I still wouldn't classify him as one.

I'm just going to take this to mean you think Shark Boy should get an Oedipus gimmick. I agree.

The main reasin I suggest it is because of some of the zanier things he does like "hypnotizing" his opponents, and some if the interviews he does (if that is actually him talking) remind me of the kind of things Shark Boy does-like biting opponents on the rump or drinking clam juice. Silly and over the top, but also total character immersion. Makes me think the two of them would actually play well off each other.
