10 Hilariously Awful Career-Killing WWE Gimmicks From The 2000s

4. Stalker DDP

DDP was a late started in wrestling and didn't win his first WCW World Heavyweight Championship until he was 42-years-old. A lot of people doubted Page could become a successful wrestler but he proved them wrong and became a genuine star in spite of his advancing years. Page puts it down to good old fashioned hard work -he would be training at the Power Plant on his days off- and staying positive. He must have had a hard time looking on the bright side when he was initially pitched how he was going to debut in the WWF after they had bought out WCW in 2001. DDP came in not as the established Diamond Dallas Page character that everyone knew from WCW but as a seedy stalker who was after Undertaker's real life biker chick wife Sara. He was depicted as having an obsession with Mrs. Taker, fantasising about her and cutting some very, very creepy promos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkV67VCfpOg The feud with Undertaker was lopsided, with the American Badass beating the tar out of DDP. As if that wasn't bad enough, Sara beat up and pinned the stalker herself. DDP was done in the WWF but they tried again with him in 2002. Well, they kind of tried: they gave him yet another stupid gimmick, this time as a blindly optimistic motivational speaker who claimed that everything wasn't a bad thing but a good thing. DDP's short WWE run has to go down as one of the most disappointing ever.
