Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted November 28, 2015 Awards Moderator Share Posted November 28, 2015 Over the years, WWE has had a variety of acts and gimmicks designed to appeal to the "AMERICA, FUCK YEAH" audience. But which one do you think is the most 'Murican in all 'Murica?  Here are some of the contenders:   Hulk Hogan   He is a real American.    Jim Duggan   He says "USA, USA" a lot.    The US Express   It's in their name.    Lex Luger   Speaking of Expresses...    The Patriot   He's a patriot.    Mr America   He's a real real American.    Kurt Angle   Gold medal and all that.    Jack Swagger   An All American American!    More recently, there's...  Zeb Colter     And who could forget...  That time Kenzo Suzuki dressed up as Uncle Sam     So, who's the most American of them all?  I personally have never liked the "AMERICA, FUCK YEAH" gimmicks. For a company that's supposed to be 'World', they don't half alienate a load of the audience with these patriot gimmicks.  What do you think?  USA, USA, USA...

Paid Members Gus Mears Posted November 28, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted November 28, 2015 I'm going to go with Lex Luger predominantly for this stirring video during the Lex Express Tour which might be the most disgustingly saccharine thing that WWE ever produced. Â Â Â I wish they would do this again with someone actually and not in a 'look it's that foreigner Jimmy Yang, but he now likes America!' way. Like some cross between Bo Dallas and JBL. Touring the country in a bus and doing patriotic things in as disingenuous a manner as possible. Just nick the Adam Rose party wagon and paint it with the American flag.

Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted November 28, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted November 28, 2015 Great as that sounds, Vince would never go for it. That's pretty much the USA Guy gimmick that Derrick Bateman came up with isn't it? I reckon that character could have been a lot of fun, but that sort of sense of humour goes straight over the old man's head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted November 28, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted November 28, 2015 Kurt Angle hands down, I'm not American so I don't give a shit how patriotic some Yank is (unless it's Rocky or Rambo). But Kurt wasn't one note with it, it was ingrained in his gimmick, it needed to be there and it worked great but it never distracted from the other aspects of his character he was putting across. Â Fuck that, I just saw Kenzo Suzuki is on the list, he was much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
