There has been a lot of talk about guys from the RAW reunion last week coming back. Everyone talks about how great Steve Blackman looked and how he should come back full time. But no one has talked about the single greatest prospect for a return... Abe "Knuckleball" Schwartz! Now before you all go and end up blinded, hear me out. While I know Steve Lombardi has always portrayed ol' Knuckleball, I think they should bring him back in slightly different form. Given the current events in baseball, I think WWE should have someone who is the size of Lashley or Batista behind the make-up this time. He can parade around in the audience, only this time instead of holding up a sign that says "I'm on strike!" he can hold up a sign that says "I'm NOT on roids!" They could also pull something along the lines of Kane's "Corporate" period, where Abe comes never gets to finish his matches because every time a bunch of guys dressed like cops or better yet, like senators, come running out to the ring and he leaps over the guardrail to get away from them. They could also do all sorts of backstage segments alluding to him having no hair, or to having a shriveled sack. Anyone else like this? Sounds like a great idea, right?

Considering all that's gone on this past year, it wouldn't happen OR work.

Will Pat Patterson "proposition" him in the restroom?

Hell yeah Abe needs to come back... and he has a ready-made feud with M.V.P. over who is the original MVP.

A Steroid-Abuse Gimmick. That's really some great idea! They could also do comedic segments where Chavo fakes a heart attack or where HHH snaps into "roid rage" and kayfabe murders Steph and Aurora... WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS: "NO!"

I'll be the only one to openly mark out for this gimmick idea.

They should bring him back only if he's played by Snitsky, and the gimmick is that people accuse him of being hopped up on steroids and HGH like the baseball players in the Mitchell Report.

Yeah, not something you want to draw attention to. Good effort though.

Yeah but I don't like the idea of it being a musclehead. I think Charlie Haas could be a good midcarder as Abe Jr

wont happem because WWE is right behind baseball on the issue of roids. and wont work because baseball is over big time even with allegations of juicing.

Bring him back in a stable with Skinner, The Repo Man, and Damien Demento.

No, that face is kinda dumb. Brawler is cool though, except for the fact you may as well be watching the Harlem Globetrotters and praying the Generals win.

Well, as long as you don't have Kamala that night (who'd play Kim Chee?) or need the Brawler for anything in an extended feud, I say go for it.
