If that's the best they can come up with, then they obviously don't know their WrestleCrap. Note they said "ridiculous," not "horrid" or "5 worst gimmicks EVAH." "Ridiculous" gimmicks can work if they are portrayed by the right workers. However, of course, if the gimmick is "ridiculous," and the worker has no clue how to get the gimmick to work to his advantage, well, that's when things get bad. Not all "ridiculous" gimmicks are bad, IMO. Yeah, I think most of us agree The Undertaker gimmick was pretty ridiculous but end up being one of the best gimmicks because of the person who has the gimmick and was able to pull it off.

is Batista's gimmick kinda like Warrior's? think about it....Batista shakes the rope before he goes for the Batista bomb Promos aren't unintelligible enough. "That's my belt, and this Sunday, I'm going to take control of your plane, and push it into a nose dive, because I'll be needing it back!" Or "That's my belt, and this Sunday, I'm going to rip your arms off and shove them down your throat until you puke, and then make you write my name in the puke, and everyone will remember, that I needed it back!" Better?

The best commented one was
Henry R Godwin- You though Hillbilly Jim was bad this guy is worse, he would bring hog slop to the ring and poor it over his opponents head after the match.
HRG instead of HOG? BOOO!

Not bad for wrestling ignorant SI. LOL at Warrior's description. They don't employ smarks, they try to cover legitimate sporting events.
