“His moves include smugness, condescension, and whining.” Brilliant!

Re: Wrestling’s New Villain
This is pretty fucking great.
Just read he showed up to his latest show with a petition to shut down the local coal mine.

Re: Wrestling’s New Villain
Read another article on the guy and the comments section had some good stuff.
When he loses, he dances around the ring blaming everyone else.
He doesn't even need an opponent to lose! He will just beat himself!
He should tag with Irwin R. Shyster (IRS) and the combo can be called "Tax and Spend"
I wonder if he'll demand a safe corner in which to hide. How about extra time, in case he needs it? Or a surrogate who will share his beatdown?
Good for him. All he needs to do is come out as gay or transgendered and he would complete the character.
He blames Nikolai Volkoff for every loss.

Re: Wrestling’s New Villain
Stealing this from Deadspin comments section:
"This schtick could be milked for so much. He could challenge the women’s champion to a match because he doesn’t see gender. He could steal the belt and give it to some other heel loser to “redistribute” the wealth. Every time he loses a match, he could appeal it to some fake wrestling governing body and get the match turned over to him. I think instead of being antagonistic with the crowd, he should always say that they only boo him because they haven’t been properly educated. He could refuse to recognize the refs authority because refereees are a symptom of systemic oppression. He could be a vegan and blame gluten-allergies on why his opponents lose to him. When he wins, he could give the loser gift-certificates to Whole Foods and yoga sessions. He could refuse to fight championship matches unless assured that the ring is carbon neutral. I think if done right, this character could be one of the all-time great heels."

He needs to get to a real second tier federation while the gimmick is still hot.Foo wrote:that ring is so tiny. No figure fours in that baby.
