Gimmicks that dont get over
Don't mean this as an "I hate (insert gimmick here)" thread. I mean stuff that's been done dozens of times, and just never work.

I ask this after reading something about Chris Masters.

So let's see:
Narcisist/in love with himself guy
Religion Angles (not to be confused with cult like characters like Undertaker and Raven)
In shape fitness type calling everyone fat.
Wrestling Boxer.
Guy only famous for being a former (anything but wrestling) athlete. (And I mean actually gimmicks, not guys who were former athletes like Ron Simmons and Monty Brown).
Musical gimmicks
The World's Strongest Man gimmick

i'm not happy w/ matt morgan's new stuttering gimmick ..
and if the story about the girl w/ a huge fake mole on her face is true, i think that'll suck as well.
i'm also tired of americans pretending to be from other countries and hating america.. it's stupid to hear the crowd chant USA during a match with such guys.. next thing you know, they'll chant USA during a match pitting y2j vs. hassan.
