A smark gimmick?
He could debut as a face, always incredibly excited to be wrestling, almost in tears when he wins a match/wrestles in a place like MSG. Actually in tears when he wins a mid-card title. Always very respectful and humble to his opponents, shaking hands before/after a match. You know, stuff like that. He'd have to be a young guy, of course, and I think you could do a lot with this character. I mean, if he ever found himself in Teddy Long's office, it'd be like:
"Tonight, in the main event, you're going one-on-one with THE UNDAHTAKAH, playa!"
"... Are you serious? The Undertaker? THE UNDERTAKER!? The man who's never lost a Wrestlemania? One of the biggest legends of all-time? IN THE MAIN EVENT NO LESS! Oh, my God. Thank you. Thank you so much."
You get the idea.
The character would also be great as a heel. Making shoot comments, insulting his rivals by bringing up their real-life flaws or wrestling ability. You know, a general IWC asshole. Couldn't you just picture someone cutting a promo, getting a "You suck" chant, and the wrestler just losses it and yells "SHUT THE HELL UP, YOU STUPID MARKS! I'M TRYING TO CUT A PROMO, HERE! YOU DON'T KNOW REAL WRESTLING!" or "OH YEAH, WELL THAT SPOT IN THE UNDERTAKER/FOLEY HIAC WAS WORKED!!!!!!!" It'd be amazing.

I'd like it. I've been waiting for one actually but I'm afraid they would screw it up.

It would be even greater if he broke kayfabe and then it would cut to footage with Shelton and Kane playing SD vs Raw. Kane and Shelton notice they are being taped so they start brawling to preserve kayfabe.

I'd mark. No really, that'd be a great idea for a gimmick. This one is Khali-approved!
*Delivers thumbs up.*

Sounds Russo-riffic.
Meaning it's completely idiotic. The fans would probably be confused and the other wrestlers would look bad.

His name would be "Smart" Mark Meltzer. His T-shirt should just be black and on the front, with really tiny white font: ***** |

It's one of those things that could either work really, really well, or get screwed up really, really bad.

Edge is as close to a smark jerk in pro wrestling as there ever was one |

I thought Lita was supposedly getting a dirtsheet gimmick. Or atleast that's what the dirtsheets said...  |
