Create a gimmick (that has never been tried before)

Here we go with this again lol
His slogan would be I AM THE PUMPKIN SCARECROW MAN

Bout a couple thousand different wrestlers have done that gimmick, some of the most famous are Wahoo McDaniel, Chief Jay Strongbow, Winona Littleheart, Chief Big Heart, Jules Strongbow, Princess Little Cloud, Princess Dark Cloud, Don Eagle, Chief Black Eagle, Chief White Eagle, Steve Gatorwolf, Little Beaver, Jay Youngblood, Chris Youngblood, Mark Youngblood, etc., etc.
Yeah but besides them
 
The angry white guy (think Michael Douglas in Falling Down).

Was going to say Native American, but I think Tatunka did that.

Was going to say Gothic (but, I guess Sting, Karrion Kross kinda did that).

American Psycho archetype?
I’ve always wanted to see a Patrick Bateman type character. A suit wearing yuppie that drops names and places he’s been. He comes across non-threatening but is a psychopath in the ring.
I understand why that would be difficult though because it’s a heel character that wrestles like a face.

Not pro-wrestling, but Rory MacDonald kind of leaned into that archetype during his time in the UFC.
 
A female babyface that kicks ass but also retains her femininity and glamour. Wrestling and Hollywood in general seems to equate badass woman with also being very masculine acting. We normally only see this with heels like Nikki Bella, Mandy, even Charlotte. They wear heels, dresses and have their hair done but they’re heels so they don’t really have that ass kicking quality. I basically want Beth Dutton

That could've been Lacey Evans.
 
The ancient one.

An immortal man who has witnessed first hand the colleseum, and who has decided to try his hand at the current sport of wrestling, in a bid for modern day competitive glory.
 
A sasquatch that eats babies.....that been done?

They were doing some of it with JD Mcwhatever in NXT with his hole routine/pain to make him stronger and better thing
 
Streak Goldberg but with the mic skills of 1998 Jericho
 
How about a murderer gimmick, where he "kills" all the guys getting sent down to developmental? He doesn't even wrestle. He just kills the talent, once they've been designated for assignment. A "Grim Reaper" of sorts, that kills any and all hype behind a guy. When you see him coming for a certain wrestler, you know it's all over. He's the last thing they see in the WWE.
 
The Ghost of Abraham Lincoln. Since Abe was a legit wrestling shooter, his ghost comes back in the year 2023 for wrestling glory. He can walk to the ring in his trademark black suit and top hat. He can have the suit gimmicked to easily tear off like Tetsuya Naito's walk out suits.

The wrestler must keep kayfabe 24/7. If he goes to Walmart, he does it as Abraham Lincoln's ghost. If he goes to a restaurant....Abe Lincoln's ghost.

If he turns heel he can get some gimmick $5 bills to rain on the crowd and talk about how he's "literally money".
