Yeah, it is a good thread. I saw it earlier, but took me a while to post because I just can't really form a good argument for why I would like to see more face paints. I guess I can just say I just like it, and that's that.
I suppose face paints are not what WWE wants because it's been wanting to get away from the colorful characters of the early 90's, and wants to be taken seriously by the mainstream media. But man, without gimmicks, so many of the wrestler are just so boring. Not only that, their entrances (the MOST important part of pro wrestling IMO) are all becoming indistinguishable. And now, even some of the more colorful characters who had success throughout the Attitude era are becoming blend. I actually looked forward to seeing Hardcore Holly when he was doing the Don Quixote-like character. Now, he's just another tough dude.
I agree that introducing some of the new guys with face paints can really set them apart from the rest - and WWE might actually sell more t-shirts too!
