7 Old-school gimmicks that would have worked in WWE today

#2 The Steiner Brothers

Rick and Scott Steiner wore the colours of the University of Michigan, and their amateur wrestling background was reflected in their in-ring work. Their gimmick was not too dissimilar to say, Team Angle or even the current Smackdown Tag Team Champions American Alpha.

They are a team that would have fared wonderfully in today’s WWE and probably had some great matches with American Alpha, The Revival and #DIY. Although truth be told, Scott Steiner is pretty cool as the Genetic Freak.
