| Re: gimmick matches
Triple H is a very versatile wrestler, and can go in both straight up wrestling matches, or gimmick bouts.
As far as Sandman goes...if anyone watched his last few weeks on Raw trying to 'wrestle'...that should answer your question. The guy can swing a chair, but fucked if he can execute a bodyslam.
Gimmick matches tell stories, and are usually used to end feuds. Going by that logic, a good wrestler is one who can get the crowd involved in a regular match, and then ups their game in a gimmick match, which, in turn, excites the fans more, and tells a good end to the story.
Anyone can swing a chair, but to tell a story with it is a different thing all together. |
