Paid Members LaGoosh Posted March 22, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 22, 2016 He's a shoo-in if they ever do a third Gimmick Battle Royal, which I sort of hope they do. With the entire roster injured they should have done it this year.
The Gaffer Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 The idea that a gimmick battle royal with people from 2006 would be the same product distance as X-Sevens was to 1991 is terrifying.

It is when you write it like that. You're generally talking about seriously younger people though. In1991, you turned up in the WWF with a gimmick to hide the fact you'd worked everywhere for the previous 15 years. IN 2006, you turned up with a gimmick to hide the fact that you'd only been in OVW for a year.

When was the second (assuming WM X7 was the first)? I seriously love battle royals and rumbles filled with ridiculous colourful cartoon characters.
boytoy Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Who'd everyone book in a post WM X-7 gimmick battle royal? Got a few but after that I am struggling due to the lack of colourful gimmicks from the period... Boogeyman Santino Marella Lord Tensai The Hurricane Kevin Thorn Vladimir Kozlov Hornswoggle The ECW Zombie Great Khali
Paid Members Carbomb Posted March 22, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 22, 2016 Couldn't have the ECW Zombie, he passed away (for real) a few years ago. For Gimmick Battle Royals, it wouldn't be too difficult to get some one-off appearances: Pirate Paul Burchill Kenzo Suzuki Sylvain Grenier doing his model gimmick Simon Dean Mean Street Posse Doink Eugene The Mexicools Balls Mahoney
Porkchopcash Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Torri Wilsons dad, back from the dead. Second one was on a Raw special. I remember Bart Gunn being in it and still in great shape.

Paid Members Teedy Kay Posted March 22, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 22, 2016 Regal in the real mans man gimmick would be fun. I know there were fallings out with Ax, but Demolition making an appearance would be wonderful.
AshC Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Different era and indeed promotion, but Barry 'Hole in One' Darsow and The Gambler, please!
Merzbow Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Have Brutus Beefcake come in and get eliminated in seconds then repeat with every one of his other gimmicks.
Paid Members Carbomb Posted March 22, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 22, 2016 Have Brutus Beefcake come in and get eliminated in seconds then repeat with every one of his other gimmicks. And have Lombardi do the same with the Brooklyn Brawler, Kimchee, Doink and Abe "Knuckleball" Schwarz.

Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted March 22, 2016 Awards Moderator Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) He's a shoo-in if they ever do a third Gimmick Battle Royal, which I sort of hope they do.When was the second (assuming WM X7 was the first)? I seriously love battle royals and rumbles filled with ridiculous colourful cartoon characters. It was on the Raw 15th anniversary show. You had Goon, Repo, Doink and Sarge returning from the first one, but otherwise it had a more Attitude-y tinge to it - Steve Blackman, Pete Gas, Scotty 2 Hotty, Al Snow, Gangrel I think, and Bart Gunn as mentioned. Can't remember who won but I'm fairly sure they sold the victory to the Million Dollar Man, who should have gone down in the books as the winner. Edited March 22, 2016 by HarmonicGenerator

That's my Network viewing for tonight sorted, then.
