Vince took one at his ears and thought "hahahah, MIGHTY MOUSE!!!"
Neville just sat quietly, his eyes darting from side to side
He glanced at HHH who looked back at him sorrowfully.

He's going to be a shitty version of the hurricane I'd take him as a masked guy if Adrian Neville still also debuted. You mentioned the Hurricane, why not have a Hurricane/Gregory Helms thing going on where people know it is him but he denies it. Have him punch a police horse on TV too (let's see who gets that)....

How is it continuing to get worse? This is no different than what was reported earlier this week. The previous report (by WON again) didn't mention Neville gaining a mask and being a kid's character, it mentioned Neville being "Mighty Mouse-esque" which many took as being a tough guy who's underestimated exactly like Mighty Mouse. So yes, it is different than what was previously reported. It's two different things here. Actually the original was from PWInsider which means we two separate reports from highly reliable sites reporting this. For me, it is like someone else said, what is the point of developmental if you're going to make such huge changes? Dunn and Vince are simply sabotaging their own business just to help their ego or damage Hunter's work.

So.........he's the Hurricane.
They aren't even mentioning that part. That happened within the last 10 years and yet they go for the 80 year old reference.

Vince originally wanted to do the Mighty Mouse deal with Chris Candido way back when they brought him in. I guess, it's true. Vince has this list of gimmicks he wants to do and he throws them at people until somebody agrees to do them or they don't have the balls to turn him down, which Candido did because he was sensitive about his size and didn't want to be the tough little guy. Figures, a 1940's cartoon character inspires a 2010's wrestler. Cultural relevancy, thy name is Vince. The Vaudevillans aren't exactly culturally relevant either. You mean to tell me they aren't hipsters?

I don't know... I mean, "suggestions" and "not set in stone" are pretty inconclusive terms. For all we know they're just bullshitting about possible gimmicks like we do here.

With those elvish ears, Neville is doomed, DOOMED I say, if they at any point use the word mouse to describe him. If they actually put him in a mouse mask they're either stupid or assholes. I still say he should have a gimmick that's somewhere between a Gremlin and a troll. He breaks everything he touches, and hides under bridges and eats goats and lost children. Daniel Bryan feud confirmed.

If they want a slightly goofy masked guy, it seems a shame they didn't sign that El Generico guy before he retired.

So a high-flyer with a mask and an animal based gimmick... If only they had one of those on the roster already. Could work if they paired him with a tag team or something. Or maybe I'm talking bull.

They should give him a blue dot as a mask.

If they want him to play a masked character "The Red Arrow, Adrian Neville" would be a good name, presuming the actual Red Arrows haven't copyrighted it
That would allow them to play up his high-flying daredevil style, and still sell cool merchandise.
It'd be more marketable than "Adrian Neville, Geordie Lad"

It'd be more marketable than "Adrian Neville, Geordie Lad" Well, DC probably has it copyrighted. Granted, I think in general him being masked is just pointless. Regardless I can't see him ever really being anything more than a flippy midcard attraction (assuming he doesn't just get the Justin Gabriel treatment of, "Nope, you're good in the ring and have an over finisher but you're never getting on TV for no reason,"), might as well stick with the look people already know him for as opposed to just pretending like people don't know what he looks like. Unless maybe he just wears a mask covering only part of his face that's just there for decoration like Vader or something.
