Omos being a ninja is simply laughable 😂
No cap 😂😂😂
True 😂
Im more shocked he won tag team Championship
Omos is a Naija Ninja 😅
Lol right he did nothing to consider himself a ninja 😂
Big Show impersonating Hulk Hogan was hilarious 😂
That was his gimmick pretending to
Be other people.
Dolph did that also sandow.
Remember he was an Irish guy,
DDP, big pee wee, etc.
I never knew Brodus Clay did ANYTHING in WWE after the dancing gimmick
Then he went to TNA to be Tyrus.
Now he's in NWA.
Also working for fox news with a radio
Show.
Update: he's going into retirement
This year sadly he will be missed.
@@nehemiahpouncey3607he was also supposed to be Juggernaut!! A gimmick I thought would have worked!! They moved off of it after doing weeks of promos
@@nehemiahpouncey3607 I do remember that
i started watching wwe in 2006 and stopped in 2012, the reason i stopped is cuz i got hit with a reality check once i seen brodus clays entrance with disco, i knew we were heading towards kid friendly wwe, so i stopped before wm 28 even tho i was heavily addicted to wwe between those years and even bought both wm 26 and 27, and straight up stopped lololol i even gave away my wwe belts to my moms friends kid, and a lot of my favorite wrestlers weren’t in it anymore, jeff hardy leaving was a big one for me too, but i just started getting into it again a few weeks ago, figured id give it another go even tho we can’t get the attitude and ruthless years back
i remember them initially pushing him as a monster heel but thenm they changed to the dancing gimmick overnight
Rene Dupree as the most extreme athlete had so much potential.
yea that was a slam dunk on paper.
FACTS dude.
He and Test could have been a tag team with Edge as their manager.
Dupree in general had a ton of potential. He was super young and had a great look.
WWE dropped the ball
I loved Christian's brief gimmick of throwing temper tantrums after he lost. There's been few actions on WWE that have made me detest a heel more
Crybaby Christian 😂
Turning Michael Cole heel was the most unbearable time imo
Albert switching from a monster heel to a friendly giant was the wrong move.
Most wwe big men end up smiling and dancing before it's over.
I enjoyed his tensai gimk
Tensai could have worked but they paid too much attention to crowd chants. If they kept going and made him compelling they would drop it like they did for husky.
I don’t know WWE couldn’t bring him back as just Albert again.
His lord tensei gimmick could have been great. But fans and WWE fucked it up
I've noticed that most heel turns spontaneously happen. There are no planted seeds in the betrayal they just all of sudden feel the urge to "betray" their partner just like Eugene's heel turn.
Max Dupree should be #1 on this list
Retribution
Y E A H📣
And that's a fact of life 😂😅
Don't forget the amazing build to Aleister Black's heel turn just to get released after one Black Mass to Big E
The unresolved fued we'll never get to
See.
Tucker turning on Otis then gets released 😂😅
@@b-rorptop1035 big Cass kick a midget
Then got released as well.
I'm convinced that the WWE writers actually bet each other on who can come up with the worst possible gimmicks and storylines.
Vince just uses the writers to flex his prejudice and favors the people who exploit stereotypes it is ingrained in the business from a historical and negative world view perspective
The Eugene gimmick was actually Nick's idea.
Wrong
@@t.r4849 It was
What they could have done with Eugene as a heel....is reveal that his "specialness" was a scam, a way to get sympathy from the crowd and special treatment.....that might have created a lot of heat for Nick Dinsmore....then he could've started his heel run under his name and show just how good he really is.
@@jackdeath0431 Agreed
Istg I never get tired from watching this channel it's always interesting and entertaining
I forgot Eugene turned heel. I actually wouldn't have minded seeing that play out, looking back.
"Alright so we have a great new idea for your character. You're going to be....get this....naked. Yep, just your character but naked"
"....okay."
None of these lasted seconds... The yetti, now that was seconds
The only character that actually lasted LITERALLY seconds wasn't listed here, and that was Hade Vansen...
Charlie haas had the same gimmick as the big show in 2008-2009 😭😭
Thinking back on it DiBiase had a perfect heel gimmick opportunity being his fathers son. What do people hate more than a cocky businessman? His son that didn’t have to do anything but take dads money. OR they could’ve really went a “Tommy Boy” route (though more comedy) he could be the dimwit son to the big businessman. Never understood why he was just basically a regular guy with money symbols on his tights and merch.
What u described is the Mr.McMahon character
The world is run by monarch babies and nepotism hence bloodline so definitely
Yeah he’s a natural heel that steals welfare funds
Heck they even brought virgil back
As his manager.
@@nehemiahpouncey3607 The thing about Ted is he had the look but he lack the charisma to make it work. He should had just wrestle in a business suit with a mouth piece to speak to the masses as everyone else was beneath him. He should had been caught trying to bribe wrestler into losing matches against him. (which is how his dad did it, but his dad did it in front of the ring with jobbers). since wwe lack jobber it should had been a backstage thing with hidden camera.
Great video!! Really enjoyed it
5:09
The giant "ninja".
How convenient. I see what they did.
To be fair. I was there at Backlash when Big Show came out as Showster. That pop was huge!
Thanks for your content 😊big respect from England
Brian Kendrick was great cruiserweight wrestler
THE Brian Kendrick
I actually still have Brodus’ heel theme “ain’t no party” downloaded on my music list to this day
That was very nice of you to call Brodus Clay’s ring work “average”.
Been watching your videos you made years ago and I just can’t stop man so addicting and every time I see a good video I see another so I just watch them both it’s so hard to stop 😂
Didn't know SECONDS can be a YEAR long!
The naked mideon gimmick should been canceled off tv forever 😭😭😭
Somehow he actually made the WWF
Games too.
Think it was no mercy or 2000.
KO The Face of America...I think that lasted only one night.
love the new graphics wrestlelamia! love the video!
Mideon was underrated character
I expected Emmalina to be the thumbnail.
Rene Dupree had new potential
That jab at Tyrus 😂 "not one fan wanted to see him as a main-eventer"
And now he's a radio host.
Omos loves anime, maybe that's why he was made Ninja 😂
Rock a Billy is a gimmick that never should have existed
Then there would be no new age outlaws
Apparently they were trying to get Glen Gillbertti (Disco Inferno) for the role but, negotiations fell through and he stayed in WCW
Rockabilly all year long, rockabilly sing that song
@@EssexAggiegrad2011totally makes sense
What about the guy in the shiny storm trooper mask that fell through the wall?
The "Shockmaster". That was literally seconds.
That was WCW
I love The Mascot idea. WWE showing support for the community and local high schools
Fire Vince This second 😂
Emma to Emmalina (with all the buildup to Emmalina's debut) and then immediately back to Emma made zero sense.
Loving your updated countdown transitions. Really enjoyed the old one's obviously but the new one is slick as well 😊❤️🙏🌎
The funkasaurus was a Punishment from Vince he discussed this in a few interviews.
Too bad DiBiase didn't adopt a conman character. It seems like he grew into that role rather nicely later on life.
His dads partners name is IRS
Yet they tried the dancing Matt Bloom AGAIN when Tensai was paired with Brodus Clay as Tons Of Funk
You forgot Brodus Clay as Juggernaut!! I was so hyped for this gimmick!! The promos, an then WWE pulled it!! One of the most awesome gimmicks that I thought would have been over and they canned it!!
Chavo Guerrero as Kerwin White. How is that not on the list? That lasted less than some of the ones mentioned here!
I feel like "Naked Mideon" was a punishment. Seems like it was doomed to fail!
The Big Show deserved to be treated better than that. I remember this; all I could think of was how they made him look inept.
Inept in the main event?
Or as champ?
Going back to the 80's with Outback Jack .
Eugene is weirdly enough one of those gimmicks that make you think: A shame it never worked out. Just like it's amazing to see gimmicks like Doink, Hurricane, Pretty Deadly, Golddust are gimmicks that shouldnt work but work so perfect.
The shortest and funniest gimmick was when Steve Austin wore a sheriff badge and Triple H destroyed it in seconds.
kevin owens face of America
aj styles i.c belt #1 contender statistics gimmick with park josephs as his manager
I liked seeing Joseph Park in WWE
If I'm not mistaken. Emmalina debuted on raw in Las Vegas. I was at that show. It was the same raw as the festival of friendship with Jericho and KO
They need those tag titles back (Dibiase Posse)
Always loved Emma. She gave me the cold shoulder to a big laugh from the crowd.
@@grouchingtiger
Shame she was 1 of many victims of Ronda burial of the SD women's division. She's got more talent in her accent than Ronda will ever have.
Emma, Candice, Mia Yim, Tegan they returned just to put over other big talents 🤦🤦
@a.j2863 pretty sure all of them were also buried by Ronda at some point.
Also the same show where Bayley won her first main roster Women's Championship
Mideon probably sneezed around Vince or something so he wanted to embarrass and bury him
Unrelated to the list but the new title/name screens are sick. Props to the designer
I was waiting for The Shockmaster.
That was WCW, not WWE
Ted Dibiase should've got singes push
Teddy should have carried his dads Million dollar persona, especially now that Corporate greed is killing the world.
Enjoyed the video! Would agree the gimmick was absolutely awful but I have to say, having watched religiously during that period, Albert and Scotty 2 Hotty were still over / got strong reactions, they had a good stint with it as well, almost 6 months.
Bloom could be on this list twice since he came back as LORD TENSAI, which was interesting until the exact moment he took off his mask and everyone realized it was Albert
Bro love the new backdrop
Omos may have been a giant ninja
But he wasn't a super giant ninja
As a life long fan I would like to say You could have used Stevie Richard when he had his quick run impersonating other wrestlers like dude love and Y2J, that gimmick lasted only moments
DAMN THEY DROPPED THE BALL with Ted DiBiase Jr. Bro was suppose to the next guy up I know nowadays his name has been kinda tarnished but he definitely had potential I mean legacy was a really good faction tbh there theme was good too he was gifted the million dollar championship which is a dope belt yeah what could of been at least cody is shining rn once he beats roman and captures that title it comes full circle
Thought Beaver Cleavage would be included. Not counting the videos leading up to, but he dropped that gimmick on the debut. Kerwin White is another I thought we'd see.
😂The Nigerian Ninja😂
5:56 ah the brian Kendrick an
Paul London weirdly mask gimmick.
That was WTF.
Still remember the titantron of masks
Flying around.
Best channel on YT
Yes 🙌🙌🙌
The moment you think "there are so many people working at WWE and NOT A SINGLE ONE pointed out how horrifying was the naked mideon gimmick?"
Eugene’s heel turn was hilarious
They should give Omos a Kingpin from Marvel type of gimmick. Take some pages from the Daredevil movie where Michael Duncan (RIP) played him
Thank For The Video 🙊🤯🥰😍💐🌟🥇🏆
I expected to see Mordecai on this list (Kevin Thorn). That gimmick only lasted a couple weeks back in 2004 I think?
Love the new intro
You should do a list of tag teams/groups/ wrestlers and their managers that debut together but only one person sees longevity and the rest soon forget about or fired. Like Essa Rios & Lita.
Or Dolph Ziggler coming from the Spirit Squad.
I remember when Kendrick was a singing messenger and delivered a message Taker and Taker gave him the last ride
Naked Mideon was hilarious!
Calling Brodus Clay average is a huge overstatement he had little to no in-ring experience to the point of embarrassment for Tyrus, and his talent is laughable at best, but that didn't stop Billy Corgan from booking him to capture the Ten Pounds of Gold
There was one interesting story of the Big Show's time impersonating other wrestlers: When Vince McMahon told him that he'd next be the Showfather, and would have to kiss one of his "hos", Show said he'd do it if Vince could clear it with Show's wife. Vince's solution: That's Show's wife as the "ho" he's kissing.
Totally expected Shockmaster on here
To be fair tyrus and fandango was over with dancing gimmicks but they did not over the top and make too extreme like the new day did twarking that way too much and me hate them they are embarrassing to the wrestling business
All this just to crap over the New Day?😂
2:26 He eventually found his Gimmick...Welfare Fraud. 🤣
The funny thing is, Jeff Hardy had a great heel run in TNA. It was very entertaining. He pulled it off well. Lord Tensei could have been great but WWE and Fans fucked it up.
Rene Dupree has a great podcast
The last Gimmick video lasted Minutes. We're now in seconds
Nice graphics.
That Eugene heel turn was atrocious. Could have worked out if he wasn't still in the gimmick
Emmalita occured during my early days of cord cutting. I had Hulu back then, and these segments were completely cut out
Video title: ten gimmicks that lasted seconds
The actual video: a collection of gimmicks that lasted for weeks or months.
I like the LED colored lights in the background been waiting for a changeup! 🤼♂️🤼♀️
Ah how that whole Eugene gimmick from start to finish was terrible even with his heel run 🤣
I was wondering what happened to the Ezekial gimmick lpl
Edge as the leader of Judgement Day
The Union
Rob Conway
Mohammed Hassan
The Ringmaster
DDP as the stalker
You should do rivalries that lasted seconds and #1 should be maximum male models and LA KNIGHT
I would add Bob Holly as the 'Big Shot' (1999).
If it didn’t make sense or looked silly it was a Vince idea because it made him laugh.
I expected Beefcake to be in as this mysterious masked man
I soooooooo wish that they gave Brodus Clay, that the WWE creative team had stuck with his “mastodon of mayhem” gimmick, but they dropped it at the last minute after weeks of vignettes and we got the Funkasqaurus
I’m shocked Beaver Cleavage wasn’t on here. They dropped his gimmick before he even wrestled.
Kendrick's best/worst look was as "The Pittsburgh Penguin", where he had a giant plush "beak" on his mask...🤣🤣🐧🐧
