Top 5 repackaged gimmicks in WWE

Bray Wyatt

The leader of the most bizarre family has given many a mesmerizing promos. Another great fictional character, it is quite a sight watching him, and his followers be unusual. He started off as Husky Harris, a part of the overtly misused NXT storyline two years ago. He is one of the new brigade of superstars from NXT who’re just too exciting on the mic. Put Wyatt, Ambrose and Sandow in a promo and that’s must-see television.

Kane

Okay, so nobody really remembers the geek of a character that Dr. Isaac Yankem was prior to being the Big Red Monster. So successful was this Kane gimmick, that people have most probably forgotten that this gimmick existed.

The Rock

Rocky Maivia had quite a debut being the lone survivor at Survivor Series but that gimmick could only get closer to the Intercontinental Title. I am glad he was booed out of the arena as Rocky Maivia because this led to him reinventing himself as The Rock. A bully who addressed himself in third person and hence the most awesome era of the WWE had another awesome character.
