10 Beloved Wrestlers With One AWFUL Gimmick

10. Seth Rollins (Monday Night Messiah)

It may have taken a staggering 10+ years, but it finally feels like Seth Rollins has forged the sort of undeniable organic connection with the audience that most wrestlers dream of possessing.

In truth, though, his current 'Visionary' schtick, equipped with increasingly self-indulgent sing-a-long interludes, likely all stemmed from arguably the one-time Shield man's worst-ever character change.

After his last babyface run ended with a Fiendish whimper in 2019, Rollins underwent a heelish change of heart which saw him shift to calling himself the 'Monday Night Messiah.' His new mission was to "sacrifice" his rivals for the "greater good." And it was often about as painful and uninspired as that very sentence would suggest.

But if it wasn't for those long 2020 months of preaching and aimlessly leading numerous followers in the form of the Authors of Pain, Buddy Murphy, and Austin Theory, then Rollins likely wouldn't have had the opportunity to further explore the obnoxious and arrogant attitude that would eventually evolve into the flamboyant, cackling persona currently found dominating on the red show.

And this often hit-and-miss chapter in Seth's story also at least gifted fans with the madness that was his Eye for an Eye showdown with Rey Mysterio.

So, it wasn't all bad... some of it was just hilariously silly.
