frank Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 (edited) When was the last time someone played two different characters on TV at the same time, like the current Simon Dean/Nova situation? I don't mean if it was part of their gimmick, like Foley. But where WWE havn't actually acknowledged they are the same person.Possibly Hurricane/Helms as a reporter although it wasn't like WWE tried to hide it.edit: although that was a gimmick Edited July 25, 2005 by frank

I don't mean if it was part of their gimmick, like Foley. But where WWE havn't actually acknowledged they are the same person.Probably Steve Lombardi. He was doing Abe "Knuckleball" Schwartz ("on strike" in the crowd") while still appearing as the Brooklyn Brawler in the ring. I think. I'm pretty sure when he was doing the Bushwhackers kangaroo, he was also still wrestling under at least one gimmick - possibly Doink, or possibly still BB as well. We had a bit of a discussion about this the other day in another thread, and yeah, Lombardi was the best we could come up with without it being a gimmick. He certainly did the Brawler & Kimchee at the same time.

Parkamarka Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 Al Snow wrestled as Leif Cassidy and Shinobi during the same run in early '96, although I think Shinobi was only for one taping, if I recall correctly.
