CarlCX posted:The thing with Rache Chanel's gimmick is even if you don't have weird feelings about the racial coding it actively impedes her wrestling to the extent that it would already be tough for someone to pull off if they were really, really good at wrestling, and with all respect in the world to anyone who does this extremely difficult thing, Rache Chanel is very much not good at wrestling. It's both. I just see her gimmick as a cheap low-effort jobber gimmick. It's so over the top and stupid and one dimensional and she can't even wrestle well to balance it out. If you have an overt gimmick like that, you need to really be able to wrestle and work a crowd, and when you put the shopping obsessive gimmick in the ring with people like Nyla or Shida or Britt or Swole or Kris - they have such depth to their gimmicks and personalities.

Low effort jobber gimmicks can work but you already have the best low effort jobber gimmick in the world in the company putting on PPV caliber matches with his hands in his pockets and exposing how flawed the rest are.

Yeah, if you're good enough you can get low-effort gimmicks over, but this Chanel lady really isn't. Then again she's a jobber on the free youtube show, so it's not like she's taking away anything from anyone either.

"Pointless person who likes to shop" is exactly the same as "pointless person who likes to point at their head and go bwuhuhuhuh". If there's room for one theres room for the other

There is an element of Babby's First Gimmick about it. Probably works just fine for a low card match in an armory in Dallas where what's important is making an impression and getting through the match. Not really TV suitable as anything more than enhancement, though. Even if she were Hikaru Shida good (and she's not), you'd want to workshop that character and find an element of it that works before you would put her on TV. Which isn't to say there's nothing usable there. The gimmick idea is, at its core, fashionista, right? So roll with that. Different ring gear each night, with the announcer saying who she's wearing on her way to the ring. Gucci knuckledusters in her bag. A personal security guard who carries the bag for her. It could all work. She'd just have to be really good. Which she isn't, yet.

Designer foreign objects is a really good idea. You could even have the referee check her purse before the match. The most surprising thing about the Nightmare Sisters stuff is that Brandi and Allie used to be terrible wrestlers and now they aren't.

I definitely see the improvement with Brandi. She ain't Manami Toyota but she's no longer Jacke Gsyda bad and seems more confident in her movement

I'm glad I'm not the only one who things Rache Chanel sucks. It's not a bad gimmick, but she's bad at doing it. And she's bad in ring too.

I wouldn't mind seeing PAC take the belt off Mox, who could then drop it to Kenny or Page.

The competition the company had from NWA for Ricky Starksquote:According to Fightful, Ricky Starks didn’t accept a new [NWA] contract offer of $1,000 a month. Zicky Dice was offered $250 a month and passed on that offer. Dice’s deal was originally up for negotiation in September.
