Remember Kids That this is Akeem The African DreamI am still kind of stuck on why, of all things, to make a gimmick based on the Jerk.

I’m still not sure how being successful in the World Wrestling Federation was supposed to propel Double J Jeff Jarrett to a successful career in Country Music. See, I've never got this argument. No one in Nashville would sign him, so he'd become famous in another medium so then he could use that power to make his own album. It's not the most out there idea.

Babyface Shawn Michaels who does a striptease routine after his matches and teases showing his penis to excited 14 year old girls. EDIT: Speaking of former Marty Jannetty tag partners, remember when Al Snow had a Power Ranger inspired gimmick?

How about Abyss? A masked monster that at times seemed to be a Kane and/or Mankind ripoff, who may or may not have been fathered by James Mitchell and was under the medical care of Stevie Richards. Then, he got superpowers from wearing Hulk Hogan's ring. Eventually, he seemed to disappear and his large, oafish brother, mild-mannered lawyer Joseph Park (or Parks, depending on who made up the graphics that week) went looking for him, only to turn to actually be Abyss.
Basically, Abyss is an attitude-era monster cosplayer who may have superpowers and moonlights as a moderately-successful attorney.

Remember Kids That this is Akeem The African DreamI didn't see anything wrong with this? Granted I never saw the OMG backstory, but technically Elon Musk is an African, so is Charlize Theron. Ethnicity shouldn't mean you're not African, and I just assumed Akeem was a white man that was born and grew up in an African country.

Aside from that, I think it's more the cultural appropriation than the nationality that made Akeem's gimmick ironic.

The Yeti: a giant man wrapped in toilet paper that broke out of a block of ice and then proceeded to dry hump Hulk Hogan and the Giant on a live PPV in the main event. Why he was dressed like a mummy no one had a clue given Yeti’s are supposedly furry. Then he became a giant ninja for some reason.
