Wait wait. So is he a frozen nazi or a frozen nazi cyborg? Because the later is just redundant. I mean if you've already made him half machine and as tough as say the terminator why would you have to freeze him to have come back to.... You know what? I'm putting way more thought into this then I should. You're just making up for the lack of thought put into the proposed gimmick in the first place.

This story is still so absolutely hilarious. A big part of me wishes that Heidenreich had gotten this gimmick, just to see how absurd and tasteless it would've been. The Hirohito gimmick, too.
Bonus points if the angle had gone on for a couple of years, and then culminated in an epic 6-Man Elimination Tag main event at one of the Big 4: Heidenreich, Hirohito, and Nunzio vs. Kurt Angle, William Regal, and Vladimir Kozlov

I'm honesty kind of surprised that something like Chikara hasn't borrowed this idea. No way would Chikara touch this idea. They're more PG then WWE. The guy should had pitch an idea for 2 extremely homophobic redneck truck drivers who have hardcore gay sex with each but don't consider themselves homosexual.

You start wondering if the WWE was trying to leave spike and move to the history channel (of course, if that happened, the current top tag team would be two mayans named "Armageddon")

I don't think I've heard of the purposed Hirohito gimmick before. What's the story on that?

This makes me want to see a wrestler simply called "The Aristocrat"

Essentially, Kenzo Suzuki was supposed to debut on Raw as a warrior seeking vengeance for the atomic bombs being dropped on Japan, and was going to feud with Jericho, Edge, and Benoit. That's why around that time they randomly started being billed from the US.

If there was one idea that I wish that Vince had fought for, this is it. I want to see how this would have played out. Wasn't Kenzo Suzuki supposed to be an Emperor Hirohito reincarnation around this time as well?

Guess we can file this under the "Even Vince McMahon Has Standards" section.
