What Are Your Best Gimmicks?

What are your favourite gimmicks, and examples of people that have pulled them off best?

 

My favourite gimmick is the heel narcissist as portrayed by Rick "The Model" Martel and Jason "The Sexiest Man Alive". It's like the best observational comedy: I can see traits in people I know in their performance. Jason, in particular, has me in stitches.

 

I also loved Goldust's androginous gay gimmick when he first started in WWF. He turned the crowd heel. Genius. And he triggered Ultimate Warrior. Amazing.

To name a few, my favorite part of the first run of Goldust aside form the backlot brawl with Piper, was when they asked him if he was gay during his feud with Lawler and he just straight panned a no and started a brawl with Lawler. Gave another dimension to his gimmick showing you could be straight and still act like he did.</p>
