Do you think a British guy could make it to the top without any British gimmick(Union jack trunks, Posh Accent), just based on his skills?

absolutely not. Same with Japanese wrestlers. They must speak broken English (if any at all), wear martial-arts style pants, and do lots of kicks and chops

Wrestling is a very stereotypical institution. That will never change.

That's what they said about the black man too. Then The Rock came along and won a title, I think.

I think it could, however that has to be qualified by saying it never ever could with Vince. He does like a good stereotype!!

Maybe when Vince is dead?

I can't see why not.. But of course, Vince will always lean on the British thing, kinda saves him having to build a character. Lazy turd.

Maybe, but like the Canadian wrestlers, they'd probably be introduced as "now residing in Anytown, USA"...
