Mr. Champion. A cocky heel who gradually over time starts wearing old retired wrestling title belts and making dubious claims he won them in various tournaments and battle royals. It gets to the point where he has the European, Million Dollar, WCW Hardcore, AWA Television, FTW, WWE North American, and one third of the WCCW Six-Man Tag Team Championships. Moreover he annoyingly inisists on having the announcer mention every title that he has. Eventually he ends up putting all of his belts on the line against a confused face, who manages to win them, even though he doesn't want them.
His titles lost, the heel decides the only way to get them back is to win one last title and put that up in a winner take all match. The title in question: WCW Women's Cruiserweight Championship. When asked how he can have this title when he's neither a woman nor a cruiserweight, the man replies, "Champion's Prerogative".

Lately I've been really curious to go to these try-outs for a wrestling course in my area. I have a typical nerd look so I think i want to go with a manager/semi-time wrestler character like old school Jim Cornette who is a total computer smark who gets these annoying fan boy crushes on certain wrestlers. I want to learn mat wrestling and easy to pull off submissions and mix it with a Kevin Sullivan/Abdullah the Butcher style. In promos I use internet slang and over exaggerated smark sayings. I'll come down to the ring with a computer keyboard in my hand (use it as a foreign object when really desparate for the win) and stab opponents in the fore head with pen hidden in my boots or pocket. I'd like it to have some edge to it. It be a gimmick that only internet wrestling fans would get because i think it's very much a growing market in the wrestling community. Would the character (which I think I'll call "Marky Webb") being so over-the-top internet smark really get under the skin of marks or do you think it just go over most people's heads??? Just wondering.... Also something like a Double J Jeff Jarrett WWF country singer gimmick but with more of a Pop-star American Idol spin to it. The singing will be so bad but he does all he can because the ego will be so up there. That should piss people off after awhile. I guess I just want to be a Wrestle-crap heel. I want a Gooker! Dammit! I think the gimmick may have already been taken to a degree by a few indy wrestlers such as Professor Poindexter. www.northamericanwrestling.com/poindexter.htmThere may be others out there (I'm swearing that there was one who was in the PWI 500 in 2005 or 2006 who had this type of gimmick (one of the few with an actual picture in the mag)).

Just throwing it out there, how about "Crazy Cat Lady"? She'd come out wearing a big wooley sweater with a cat picture on it, mom pants, and keds. Then her finisher would be the intro of her foreign object, a bag of live cats! She would just scream and rant the whole time then run out of the ring. Although, PETA might hassle them about it. Still a funny thought. Actually in DSW they have a gimmick of something similar. She's called the Bag Lady and she's someone who use to be famous but fell on hard times. I think she's supose to be a spoof od Christina Aguilera whenm she was a coke whore!

Simon Cowell the wrestler. He could set up a table at ringside for a match or two a night, after the match is over he can berate the loser with various Simon Cowell-esque insults. People get thrown through his table alot as well.
Joey Mercury facilitating the breakup of MNM by joining Scientology would be gold as well, mainly because that would give him an excuse to team with Max Moon.

Seven Deadly Sins: This stable would be based around the seven deadly sins. Each member would represent a sin and would attempt to corrupt others in his or her sphere of influence.
Leader: James Mitchell Pride: Christopher Daniels Lust: April Hunter Wrath: Abyss Greed: 6-Pac Envy: Raven Sloth: Jimmy Jacobs Gluttony: Balls Mahoney

how is Jimmy Jacobs sloth? If anything, he's more lust than sloth.
But awesome idea.

A masked wrestler who is accompanied to the ring by a ruthless manager. With the mask on, the monster is docile. But once that mask is off, the monster attacks and listens to whoever has his mask.

Grey Bunny. A detective character. He would be brought in by a series of vignettes, ah-la GTV type stuff. Basically spying on people. Part of his gimmick would be to blackmail people into jobbing to him. I can't really imagine any current character playing this role.

The Prophet:
He would make subtle predictions .... each one would come true... he'd predict something... like.... "A Great Champion shall rise" Than some one will win the belt... he'll make these predictions for a few months than slowly begin to reveal him self... he'll wear all black.... a black body suit, black mask, and use a powerhouse style... he'll use the Double Arm DDT as his finish and call it, "The Prophecy"

Rene Dupree as an eccentric artist obsessed with abstract art, paintings, and puppets, and before every match or in vignettes, he illustrates what he does with his opponents, or before the show, we see a puppet of a popular wrestler going down the arena only to get destroyed, and draws a painting of a wrestler or announcer that depicts him/her in a negative light or a hillarious event.
Here's also a list of ideas for Japanese wrestlers that get into WWE or TNA, uses of Japanese youth subcultures not very known in the US:
A Yanki(yankee) gimmick, a Japanese youth subculture of bleached blondes who are generally regarded as delinquents by older generations. Imagine JBL doing commentary about them, like "Why is this guy blonde, and why is he even called of all things, a yankee?! Does this guy actually thinks he's an American?"
Or a center guy gimmick, a pun on the name of a pedestrian shopping street near Shibuya Station in Tokyo where yamanba and center guys are often seen, and ganguro the female equivalent, their basic look consists of dyed hair and a deep tan. Black and white eyeliner, false eyelashes, platform shoes, and brightly-colored outfits complete the ganguro look. Also typical of ganguro fashion are tie-dyed sarongs, miniskirts, and lots of bracelets, rings and necklaces. And they are billed from Shibuya.
Or a bishonen gimmick, which means pretty boy. They would act like a Japanese Rick Rude, or Japanese Narcisisst and stare at mirrors a lot. And their valet would be a Japanese fangirl who screams, creates a lot of hype and takes pictures of them, she would be like a Japanese equivalent to Melina.

A play on the unskilled body builders who injure people due to their inexperiance. A really huge guy who acts extreemly nice and talks about his desire to improve but in his matches he botches and injures jobbers and midcarders. He gradually loses confidence in himself and begins to break down during his matches. His catchphrase would be "Dear God. I'm killing everybody."

You're thinking of Dexter Poindexter aka TJ Mack, who wrestles alot for NWA anarchy and others down there...

Here's another one, The Yet-tay returns in his old mummy costume, and asks for matches and hugs, and threatens to give a curse if he doesn't get any(ala Aqua Teen Hunger Force).
Yeti: Give title shot to Yeti, curse.
Yeti:(after a pinning someone 1,2,3) Again, AGAIN(rematch)!
Vince: Get your hands off me brother, you've been touching that mummy, you know I saw what happened at Halloween Havoc. Hogan: I wasn't getting humped brother! Vince Go hang out with your dead, mummified wife! Hogan: I gotta go brother. Vince: Mummy lover!

you can either pitch a gimmick for a specific wrestler, or just any wrestler in general. I always wanted Shawn Stasiak to come back and really play up on his father's, Stan Stasiak, history. He'll come out to the ring with a framed pic of his father. Then, he'll start "Hearing" the picture telling him to do things(take people out backstage, attack refs). It would be the "Son of Stan" gimmick That's umm..actually quite good. Sure as hell beats "Meat." *Note: I did not see the choke until I typed the words next to one another.

Bastion Booger, comes back and is feeling down when someone calls him ugly, then after a little psychology and confidence, though he still looks the same, he now declares himself "beautiful" and says it's not what's in the outside, it's what's inside that counts. And his entrance theme is Beautiful by Christina Aguilera, and he lipsyncs the lyrics "I am beautiful, no matter what they say..."
