Besides hulk hogan who are some wrestlers and gimmicks that would not get over today

[thenatural]

I mean most of those WWF gimmicks from the late 80s and early 90s are getting bushed.

A barber that moonlights as a stripper...

Two guys dressed in S&M garb....


Kamala wouldn't make it past the cutting room floor and the guy that pitched it probably wouldn't have that job much longer.

• Ultimate Warrior-The smarks would eat him alive and give him the Roman treatment
• Bret Hart-"He's a vanilla midget"
• HBK-
• The Bushwackers- Endeavored the moment they get fed to The New Day
• Stone Cold- His gimmick would get gutted especially in the WWE
• RVD- Not enough flips
• Sabu- Not enough scars
• Sting-Why he got the blond hair?

If RVD still had his run in ECW before coming over people would still love him.

A lot of the major gimmicks/stars wouldn't work in today's WWE. That's why I just when people say shyt like Cena would be midcard at best in the Attitude Era. Cena would get over in any era. Any megastar from the past would be corny in this era. Taker would be Wyatt status. Rock would be Cena status. Stone Cold would be Dean Ambrose status.

Andre The Giant.

Akeem the African Dream
Slick's yardbird c00ning ass
Sgt. Slaughter during his Iraq sympathizer run

This would easily get over in Tumps America lol.

Andre The Giant.

Came in here to say this one. He'd get so many "you can't wrestle" chants in 2017

 

[ZEB WALTON]

A Hogan character could easily get over today facing a Jinder Mahal or a Rusev like character

Hed be the most over guy on the roster, american gimmick or not so im not sure what op mean

 

[White City Black]

The Original Nation of Domination

If anything they should have a younger, "woke" version of NOD right now in WWE. Perhaps New Day can cut that worked shoot in the middle of the ring, switch it up from there.

 

[MJ Truth]

A lot of these characters wouldn't get over today because we actually saw them in the past. A lot of dudes that have been listed, had they never existed in the past, they maybe could've rocked out today. But it's impossible to separate the two, even in a hypothetical.
