10 Wrestlers With 1 Great And 1 Terrible Gimmick
10. Drew McIntyre
Whilst the WWE universe popped big for Drew McIntyre finally ascending to the WWE Championship, there was one man who told us this would happen many, many years ago.
For eons, much talk has centred around Vince’s pet projects (such as a decade-long obsession with Roman Reigns), but Drew got to play this role on TV in his best gimmick to date. At his true coming out party in 2009, Vince McMahon announced that he had personally signed McIntyre and that he was a sure thing future WWE champion. Drew’s slow and meaningful “Broken Dreams” entrance felt regal, imposing and said so much about the man’s promise.
Under this character, Drew would capture Intercontinental and Tag Team gold.
However, after a string of strange booking decisions, Drew was placed in a stable that would certainly be a low point of his career. 3MB, with Heath Slater and Jinder Mahal, really made no sense whatsoever and was a perfect example of throwing names together to give them something to do. Whilst they had their moments (like the WeeLC match that had no right to be as good as it was), it was ultimately poor usage of a man that had so much more to give than air guitar-ing and jobbing.
