Rep Power: 113   gXboxLive Position: 57th | You dont think the first two guys are a blatant ripoff of LOD? You dont think its cheesy that the not only steal the gimmicks that WCW used, but use the pictures from their old stuff? IE: Glacier & Fake Sting? I just think it reaks of unoriginality and desperation. | |
 It's about time......now bring on his next fued....  | ||

I still don't get it. Why do they have to be original or chage gimmicks? The Barbarian and Warlord were in WWE and are not a rip off of anything. What is wrong with keeping the same character? Goldberg, Hogan, Flair, Sting, they all kept their gimmicks. Just because they go to a fed show, they shouldn't? | |

Rep Power: 23 | I still don't get it either lol...The Powers Of Pain have been a team since forever. The Barbarian, except for a few years where he became known as a Headshrinker (Sioni), has always had The Barbarian gimmick. Same for The Warlord. Most of the other guys keep their name and gimmick whenever they can. | |

Rep Power: 7 | What's the legal implications in all of this? Doesn't WWE own the Glacier character now they own WCW? What's normally done? Does WWE let their former wrestlers use these gimmicks and just not bother with law suits? |
