10 Wrestlers With The Most Gimmicks

Man, Monty Sopp. No wonder wrestlers don't use their real names. (See also: Randy Poffo.)

He started out as Billy Gunn, one half of the cowboy tag team The Smoking Gunns. From there, he was briefly repackaged as Rockabilly, a gimmick DOA thanks to being a re-run of The Honky Tonk Man. Thankfully, Rockabilly led him to team up with The Roadie, later forming The New Age Outlaws as Road Dogg and 'Badd Ass' Billy Gunn.

And then, even by WWE standards, things would get ridiculous, as he adopted the gimmicks of Mr. Ass, Billy G, The G-Man, and 'The One' Billy Gunn before the Rock destroyed his main event push with a single promo. He would suffer through the bait-and-switch stupidity of Billy and Chuck before jumping ship to TNA.

Paired up once more with Road Dogg -- now known as B.G. James -- Sopp would try to cash in on his time in WWE as The New Age Outlaw, and then the Outlaw, but both would get shot down as actionable by the folks up north. Finally, he settled on Kip James... for a while. Later he was The Megastar and Cute Kip. Just pick a gimmick and run with it, man!

On the indies, he also has a plethora of names, like Kip Gunn, Kip Sopp, Kip Montana, and Kip Winchester, but it's hard to know how different any of them are from each other, so I've capped him at 15. If only he'd stuck with 'The One'.
