10 WWE Stars Who Desperately Need New Gimmicks
7. Dexter Lumis
They don't come much more gimmicky than Dexter Lumis. The creepy dude with a moustache character has somehow achieved more in NXT than it ever did in TNA, although it must be remembered that the bar was pretty low, to begin with. The problem with it, as per, is that the gimmick is so one-dimensional that its long term prospects don't look too great.
WWE has tried to add a few more dimensions to the guy, be it through his art or romantic dalliance with Indi Hartwell, but each addition has done little more than further ground the stale nature of the gimmick. Truth be told, 'creepy babyface' should never, ever be a thing, and it is a weird indictment of the 21st century that such a thing can come to pass.
One problem Lumis has is that this has pretty much been his gimmick for the best part of a decade now. The guy is plenty talented but the straitjacket nature of the character is seriously limited. There's an idea; have Dexter Lumis carted off in a straitjacket and set about rebuilding from there.
