I've been watching old episodes of NXT on Hulu and must say that Johnny Curtis has a better character there than anything Fandango has done, though I really dislike the Fandango gimmick on a whole anyway. I kind of like Adam Rose's gimmick but Leo Kruger is so much better in NXT that he shouldn't have changed to the party boy. Bray Wyatt is miles better than Husky Harris. Do you think now that maybe Adrian Neville will come up to the main roster with some ridiculous makeover? I'm thinking... Santa's elf on RAW this Monday night? Of course Santa will be portrayed by Big Show and Adrian Neville will take the Cho-Cho-Chokeslam. Merry Christmas, everybody!!

My thoughts are that Kane needs to leave The Bunny alone. That's the most entertaining angle they've got going right now. You just know that in some way, shape, or form, the Bunny is going to even the score with Kane.

No Cesaro getting fired? You are losing your gimmick now that the Magazine is no longer produced.. Just kidding haha
Leo Kruger was pretty cool, I really liked him in NXT, but not sure if he would have worked out better as Rose on the main shows.. Cody was more entertaining as grotesque, I'm not that much of a fan of Stardust... Wyatt is a whole lot better than Husky Harris, because Husky Harris was not really a gimmick, just one big sweaty guy in cowboy boots.

Never mind.

My thoughts as of right now is that Mideon was a pretty cool gimmick. What was his gimmick exactly? Guy who liked the occult? There wasn't a lot to it for me to say it was a pretty cool gimmick... The best thing he ever did was when he was trying to join the APA so he had on sweatpants and gardening gloves and the shirt that said "APA + Mideon = Friends."

Didn't really know Leo Krueger or Johnny Curtis at the time. I've been a fan of Cody Rhodes since he turned heel and joined forces with Dibiase. Cody sucked when he first showed up, but the moment he turned on Hardcore Holly It was like night and day. I loved him when he was Dashing, wasn't as big of a fan during the Disfigured era. Actually I really liked Husky Harris too. I was mad when Orton punted him and he disappeared, but looking back on it I'm glad it worked out the way it did. Bray Wyatt is a great character.

Fandango was better off as Johnny Curtis, at least gimmick wise. Cody Rhodes has never been boring really. I'll agree on Husky Harris. Leo Kruger was cool. /thread The only time I can think about Cody Rhodes being boring, which could argue the whole "Cody Rhodes makes everything they give him turn into gold" is when he was teaming with Hardcore Holly.

Cody Rhodes is better than Stardust, without question.

He was the Ministry's "eyes" so to speak.

Cody Rhodes was amazing in 2010 and 2011 but once they fed him to the big show at Mania 28 it all went downhill from there. His stuff with Goldust in 2013 was great but after they lost to the outlaws they just faded away. I hate the stardust gimmick because I believe that isn't his full potential.
Same with Wade Barrett. They just haven't followed through with the dude. His fued with Orton was solid and then after that really nothing.

T.D. Leo Kruger was awesome. Tata. Amen brother. I was so upset when he dropped that gimmick, he was one of the best things about NXT.

My thoughts are that the OP has to hit a quota of posts per week for some reason. But seriously...
Johnny Curtis and Husky Harris were BAD. Glad they found something. Kruger was good. Rose had potential but he fell flat. I wish he could slowly have parts of the Kruger gimmick show off more and more each week. Cody is fantastic in whatever he does.

You're hilarious. Please attempt stand-up comedy at some point, you'd make a killing (probably not as much as Benoit though). My favourites, if you must know, are Bret, Davey Boy, Mr Perfect and Chris Jericho Benoit was boring. He was a fantastic, aggressive performer in the ring but had zero mic skills and zero personality. This is fact.

His character was just that. An aggressive performer. His mic skills weren't that bad, and there were always worse performers speeking wise on the rosters. In-Ring, Benoit has been top caliber of ever locker room he's been in. I think you're just hung up on Benoit.
