Which bad gimmick could work best?

By Scott Keith on 4 October 2015

Long time reader and all that…

Having accidentally stumbled across an idea when commenting on another wonderful post of yours yesterday I have a question – which of these ham-fisted gimmicks could work best…

* Axel & Rose – Curtis Axel and Adam Rose take on a 1980’s Hair Metal gimmick (imagine 3MB but with more eye-liner and camper music)

* Swandango – Fandango and Jack Swagger team up in a teacher/pupil style relationship with the former teaching the latter ballet

* Sand-Bo – Damian Sandow follows up Damian Mizdow by becoming Damian SandBo – resurrecting his career by Bo-lieving

* Sand-Row – Damian Sandow follows up Damian Mizdow (and Damian SandBo) by growing his beard even longer, buying a sheep mask and following around Erick Rowan

* Damian Us-Dow – Damian Sandow follows up Damian Mizdow (and Damian SandBo…and Damian SandRow) by putting on some face paint and claiming to be Rikishi’s long lost son

* El Torit-Dow – Damian…

OK this has gone to far, but I swear Axel & Rose is money!

​So how about those football squadrons? Really moving the chains today.​
