Any gimmicks that would work well now in the current WWE, considering some of the current wrestlers on the roster and just the fact that they are PG...
I think Duke "The Dumpster" Droese would of done ok now. He'd be that hard working fun babyface with the never say die attitude. I would get behind him more than I would a generic guy like Tyson Kidd or Justin Gabriel.

For one night only, I'd love to see CM Punk team with One Man Gang.
GTS/747 Splash combo would be awesome.

With the amount of kids in the audience, I think Glacier would get over.

Paul Birchill's pirate gimmick would have worked.

The Maestro
With Fandango and Sandow, WWE would finally have some culture

Is it also fair to say that these gimmicks could also get over in a lot of indies considering how much they seem to reveal in the "So Bad it's good" hisptery stuff now a days ?

That he was, although, he was part of the Gimmick Battle Royal at WrestleMania 17. I've also seen him main event a County Fair where maybe one other person knew who he was.

To be honest any outlandish gimmick can get over (as long as the wrestler behind it is talented enough) due to the monotany of the past decade or so when wrestlers didn't really have gimmicks or personalities. That is why we're seeing over the top gimmicks return and why they're going down so well.

I've been wanting to see a wrestler that is a construction of a mad scientist. The scientist would be his manager and carry around a case of potions, pills and syringes. During the match the scientist keeps tweaking the "chemical makeup" of his wrestler with his tools to maximize his potential.

Garbage man gimmick would be great for Scott Dawson I would have LOVED Duke Drouse to be in the hardcore scene during the Attitude Era. I remember a lot of people said the same thing when he came back for the gimmick battle royal at WM X7. I'm surprised the WWF never did anything with him in the hardcore division since he was still in great shape and I believe wrestling on the independent scene in Florida at the time.

I've also seen him main event a County Fair where maybe one other person knew who he was. There was a reason why OMG was in that battle royal because he also at one time played Akeem. Which was the plan for him in that match. But because he lost so much weight the Akeem stuff did not fit. The interview with him is on youtube somewhere.

Bad gimmick or no, but I know Doink would work.

Give a flippy guy the Max Moon gimmick(minus his wack-assed jet pack) and it will work.
