So what are you guys expecting from him? Hopefully it will be something where they hit the jackpot and pull off a great gimmick that didn't look all that good but turned out to be awesome such as Mankind.
Really the guy playing Kizarny is a pretty good wrestler and is in better shape than I have ever seen him. I'm real interested in whether they will use him as a face or a heel. It is hard to tell right now but I'm guessing the will be a face.
I'm hoping he doesn't just turn into another comedy gimmick. I believe it isn't like Doink the Clown though where if he is heel he is great but if he is face he sucks. I think he could work either way but they have to keep him serious and not totally goofy like they turned Doink into.

As a dark heel I see potential. I'm definitely giving him a real chance before judgment though. I'm looking forward to him.

I'm a HUGE Nick Sinn fan, so hopefully Kizarny will kick ass. If they portray him as a dark "heel Doink" type character, this will work wonders. If they try to make him a face or a goofy heel, this will suck.

If they try to make him a face or a goofy heel, this will suck. Goofy heel would suck. Sinister heel, yes, but even if he went Boogeyman on us, he's a better wrestler than Boogeyman, so who knows, maybe he could be the next Goldust.

Actually now that you mention that I can totally see that. The guy has the wrestling ability but we will have to wait and see if he has the charisma that Dustin Rhodes had as Goldust.

As a face it would probably be more of a weirdo/crazy guy, like Crowbar.

He really needs to...not cut promos the way he does.

I like what I've seen of the guy in the ring, but it just looks like it's physically impossible for him to go ANYWHERE good with this gimmick. I'd love to see if he can, though.

He really needs to...not cut promos the way he does. I kinda agree. Thing is the guy is in a tough spot. If he's going to start cutting dark promos, there's no way he's topping the ones Jeff Hardy is doing right now. Face or heel doesn't matter, Hardy has that market cornered at the moment. The one tonight was awesome. He might need to stick with this annoying bit just to stand out for a while.

I can't tell if he is a heel or face. I am very indifferent to him based on the promos.

Alright, people, here's my proposition:
If he's awesome, then we just do what we're supposed to do.
If he sucks, then we forever refer to him as Fatty. (Edge and Christian would want us to, according to Edge's book.)
Everyone agree?

Anyone know if Wiki's accurate in saying he's a blackbelt?

To me it seems like he's kind of awkward at it and possibly not comfortable speaking that way. But, whatever works I guess. Randy Orton can't cut a promo out of a wet paper bag and he's one of my favs right now.

They just called him Fatty for the hell of it. He (Edge) came right out and said there was no reason for it.

Off topic but was there another Hade Vansen promo or was the news about him getting canned correct?
