Going from Goldust to Seven was pretty terrible, but going from Goldust to Black Reign was even worse because that ripoff gimmick actually stuck around for a bit. Dustin was on his way to looking like Dusty and was completely unmotivated in the ring (plus it was TNA so it already had a shyt factor to it).

Going from Muhammad Hassan to fired! You can’t get anymore red hot to ice cold than that.

Barry Winddham as The Stalker

shyt was so bad that Stone Cold said fukk it and blew the whole thing up when he was on guest commentary on a live Raw episode. ":gucci: Man that ain't no stalker, that's Barry Windham in camo! I guess that's what he's up to these days :scust:"

The Stalker would have been fine if they still called him Barry Windham. It's not like Blackjack Mulligan didn't have some promos around the camp fire in his day.

Also if Barry was in shape and didn't move like he was 65. Those few months in WCW in early 1999 were a fukking miracle run for him.

How you go from Soul brothers Doom to the first black wcw champion to THIS? To this? Don't get me wrong. He made up for it with NOD. but im sure he never wants to remember this gimmick.


:mjlol:

Agree with this, but that's also a gimmick DDP came up with himself. They honestly could give that to somebody right now. Honestly, with him smiling for no reason so often, Apollo Crews would be the perfect person for that gimmick.
