10 More WWE Stars Who Desperately Need New Gimmicks
10. Shanky
There's just no way this big man can continue dancing.
WWE has an awful habit of taking "giants" and turning them into walking punchlines that nobody is laughing at. They did it with Big Show, they did it with The Great Khali, they did it with Albert/Lord Tensai (twice!), they did it with Braun Strowman, and now they're doing it with Jinder Mahal's mate Shanky.
He dances. Isn't that hilarious? No, no it's not - literally nobody wanted the E's only plan for Jinder's heavy to end up being him shaking his arse at ring announcers. This trite idea has Vinnie Mac written all over it, and it should be one of the first to go now that Triple H is in the creative hot seat.
No-one really knows what Shanky is capable of yet, because he barely wrestles. Surely improving his in-ring skills and at least trying to capitalise on his physical immediacy should take priority over "friendly giant" b*llocks that's clearly going nowhere fast.
