Kind of like Goldust with movies but not as weird. You have feuds over the fact one guy has awful entrance music and he works music references into promos and just overall snotty guy.

I like that. More specifically I want to see a jazz musician gimmick, who plays intense saxophone solos in place of promos.

I've always thought it'd be interesting to see a heel that is basically a pretentious douchebag that plays guitar. Like, one of those wannabe John Mayer types that sing really (crap..I can't think of a word other than "gay" but I know that's not right) songs and girls think they're all sensitive and want to do it with them.
Basically like this guy
Instead of cutting promos, he'd just sing crappy songs. He could also use his guitar as a weapon. It would be sort of like an old school Honkey Tonk Man/Jeff Jarrett gimmick but with a modern twist.

I like the pretentious hipster gimmick. He wouldn't have any entrance music since you've never heard of the band anyway.

I'd like to see a hair metal gimmick. Sort of like an updated version of honky tonk man.

Along those lines, out of curiousity, I wonder how many music gimmicks there have been in wrestling over the years.

Tons. Off the top of my head: Honky Tonk Man (along with Greg Valentine as "Rhythm & Blues"), Van Hammer, Man Mountain Rock, Disco Inferno, PN News, Men on a Mission, Jeff Jarrett, "The Real Double J" Jesse James, No Limit Soldiers, The Maestro and The Artist Formerly Known as Prince Iaukea (though that was more just a parody of Prince's weirdness.)
I'm sure I'm forgetting some.

If they bring in jazz man use Kenny G as his intro music. For a music gimmick take one of Ramona Flower's evil exes like the vegan and turn that into a gimmick

I pretty much gave this gimmick to Jimmy Jacobs in my WWE EWR game, only he was an emo kid that would smash people over the head with guitars.

They need a hipster gimmick.
A guy who wrestles in chinos with the elasticated ankles, comes to the ring in a knit cardigan and clear lens glasses, takes self-shot pics of himself on an iPhone on the way to the ring, and his music is just some obscure instrumental from some no name band.
"Weighing, 93, 234 grams, coming from a place so obscure that you probably haven't heard of it....[Insert name]"

He could bring up how his fave Pitchfork choices are much better than Justin Bieber and Nickelback...only to be unintentionally cheered for that. Wouldn't really work.

Haha, but wouldn't an emo character be playing with electric guitars? I'm pretty sure that would kill somebody! Then again, I know nothing about emo's so maybe they use acoustic guitars too.
