During the 1980s and early 1990s, you would get a variation of this storyline from time to time:
-Dastardly heel manages to get virtuous babyface suspended for 90 days/120 days/indefinitely by various means. -A mysterious masked babyface wrestler turns up who is friends of the suspended babyface. -Dastardly heel is 100% sure that this is virtuous babyface under the mask while the authorities do not believe him until the heel provides definite proof. -Dastardly heel tries to provide proof while masked babyface wrestler outwits him until either the virtuous babyface's suspension ends or the angle ends in another way.
Would you like to see this type of angle again today? Are there any modern quirks that could be added to it today? Are there any types of wrestlers in NXT/RAW/Smackdown that you would like to see in this kind of angle?
Unless I have forgotten something, I do believe the Mr. America angle from 2003 was the last time this angle has been doen in the WWE.

Michael Cole would wink at the camera every f***ing second of every segment for it and nobody would be able to get into it.

The closest we've had since then is CM Punk after his head was shaved and...Juan Cena.

Back when the Rhodes and the Authority had that feud in '13 and Cody got fired I thought it would have been funny for him to come back under a mask as the Midnight Rider.

Is Mr America really comparable? Part of that gimmick was everyone knowing.

Mr. Bulgaria would be brilliant. In fact, I think I'm going to do this in 2K18 now.
