10 Movie Characters WWE Should Base New Gimmicks On

4. Vincent Vega & Jules Winnfield (Pulp Fiction)

Movie Gimmicks
Miramax

Effortless cool. That's the vibe John Travolta used to put out on a daily basis, and perhaps never more so than in Pulp Fiction. Paired with Samuel L. Jackson, his spiritual, burger-obsessed counterpart, there's almost too much cool on the screen at once.

WWE could use another authoritative team that also radiates cool. Really, one could argue there hasn't been a group with that "it" mixture since the nWo, or possibly the short-lived Rated-RKO. Not only would it be refreshing to see the cool-as-cucumber/vengeful-as-all-hell dichotomy between a Vincent and Jules pairing, it'd also be nice to see another mixed-race tag team on the roster with a legit gimmick.

The industry has had moderate success with mob-type gimmicks in the past, but they're usually stereotypical, pseudo-Italian heavies. But Jules and Vincent aren't exactly the Tazz-as-commentator types we've seen in the past.

Could you imagine a suit-wearing, Jheri-curled, rage-fueled hitman going off in promos laced with Bible verses while his partner hangs back and ambles around in the back, cracking wise about foot rubs? That's gold.
