Sometime during Revival you see a video package on the Titan-Tron. You see clips of some one training. You see a man in almost perfect physical condition running up and down stairs. He gets to the top and stops. He looks down into the camera.

Black
Most of you don’t know who I am. Most of you don’t really care who I am. I am John Black. I really couldn’t give a rat’s ass about you people.

The crowd boos.

Black
Boo me all you want, but tonight when my music hits and I make my way down to the ring and beat the living Jesus out of my opponent and you see how great I am…

He pauses for dramatics.

Black
You will worship me…

He pauses once again.

Black
Otherwise you’ll meet a black death.

He turns away from the camera and continues training. Then on the Titan-Tron you see clips of the move, John Black calls the Black Death. You see the looks on the crowds face, and then Revival cuts to a commercial.

This is my new character so OOC’s welcome. Should I stick with him or should I change his gimmick to something else?

Hmm. I don't know if I really like it. Not because the gimmick isn't bad, but because you left about 99% of the gimmick untapped. You didn't really say too much, and it came off as being really, really generic.

I mean, if this guy honestly believes he is Christ, I'd expect him to go on about himself and his inferior opponent for more than a couple of lines.

Not only that, but the whole promo just had a heavily generic vibe. You might want to look into expanding the gimmick and really thinking about how a guy like this would act. Remember, we aren't sports-entertainment/some G-rated third-wheel of a brand that's kid-oriented. You can say whatever the f*ck you want, pretty much... Well, as long as it complies with the basic GW rules.

/Anchorman Quote/ wow Dean you really know how to cut to a core of a man./Anchorman Quote/

Yeah my idea was that he thinks his Christ, but I know what you mean. He'll get better.
