Ok, so it is coming to that point where in the next few months I'll be able to have enough wrestling training to carry a match and start working shows.
With that I have to figure out how I want to present myself to the audience. I have a few working gimmicks in mind and themes for each but I can't settle on which one I want to go with. Here is my first gimmick idea. Basically, I'll be using my real name, and I will be coming off as a suto He-Man type. Nothing to fancy, but I will have chest armor (picture the original green rangers chest armor but more black with gold trimmings) and a cape that I will be wearing to the ring as part of my entrance attire. The chest plate will light up with my logo via LED lights, (like Iron Man's arch reactor) and I'll be able to change the color of the LED based on the color attire I am wearing that night. My attire will be mostly black with colored trimmings like red, green, blue, etc.
This is wrestling, you have to be flashy and you can't be afraid to pour on some cheese.
This character can work either as a face (good guy) or heel (Bad guy)
So here are some themes I have in mind for this. Please keep in mind that I might rerecord some of these myself to be more guitar heavy
Mow my next gimmick is rather offensive so I do apologize if anyone gets offended... but that's the point of it. He is a comical heel character named "Pussy Fever" Jerry Gatts in which thinks he's god gift to women and is unware that is unliked by many. This gimmick would be me coming out and dancing in a perverted nature for the ladies. Then I'd get in the ring and say some stuff like "How you doin ladies" naturally they would "boo" me and I say something back like "Ladies, ladies. Calm down you'll get your turn" or something like "Hey, I am so good I scream my own name"
How I get away with this you ask, well for starters the attire will be rainbow striped pants (similar to Chucky's shirt) and it'll have gray cats on the behind, and knee pads. I also be wearing a metallic pink vest and bowtie, with a little tiny bowler hat sticking out of the side of my head. I will also be wearing vaseline aroung my mouth area. You can figure out why I would be doing this.
My promos will also be done with a one of my many cats so I can get away with saying dirty things but that aren't really dirty because I keep referring to the cat.
Anyway, here are some song ideas for this gimmick
This next one I like for the music only. Sorry, just not a fan of screamo metal.
I can also use the "I Need a Hero" song for this as well.
I also thought about taking a cheap route and just being a knock off of Eric from "Phantom of the Opera" but I don't know if I would feel comfortable wearing a mask. I could just use face paint for the mask area I guess. But even at that I don't know which Theme to use. I like Nightwish's version but the female singer sings it too much like opera and I was never a fan of drop D tuning. I like Dreams of Sanity's version but the guy sounds horrible (supposedly Robert Englund sung that by I have my doubts)
I like this one the best but...
The lyrics aren't the same lyrics from Andrew Llyod Webber's Broadway musical. I can record my own, but then I have to go out and find a female singer.
Any advice and song ideas welcome.
