Need your opinion about my gimmick on pro wrestling
Question
QUESTION: Hello again Joe how are you? im fine listen im right now training my gimmick im thinking about being like this:
My real name is: Nuno Miguel Fernandes da Silva Neto
Name: Michael Eze(eze its an african name means King) (Its a nice name? Or you have a better name?)
Nickname: The African Star
I can be Face and Heel but i prefer heel
Finisher:Black Tiger DDT or Angola Dream and Spear
Favourite Quotes:
I Just did too you the Angola Dream/Black Tiger DTT WHATCHAAA GONNA DOO???
The First Angolan Wrestler in the WWE/Ring of Honor/etc...
The First Portuguese Wrestler in the WWE/Ring of Honor/etc... (Im portuguese too)
Theme: Limp Bizkit Rollin Instrumental/waiting not forgotten/thousound foot krunch Phenomenon
ANSWER: Well WWE would never let you use the LB track, to TV-14 for them nowadays, plus Undertaker used it and it wouldn't work. The quote is more of a play off of Hulk Hogan, so you need you come up with something better.
I like the overall gimmick, as it would be good to see the first Angolan or Portuguese wrestler in WWE or wherever. You're not the only one, but WWE has never had a Portuguese star I don't believe. They have many Africans, like Gabriel, Kingston, etc. But IDK if there is an Angolan or not.
So tell me about the Angolan Dream, describe to me how you'll set it up, what you'll do with it, etc.
To better fit an American audience, the only thing I'd suggest is making things a bit easier to sa or roll out. So, I'd just go with "Eze".
I actually like the African Star name, you need to kind of build on that and work everything around that type of thing.
Hope this helped!

Answer
That sounds a lot like the FutureShock DDT that Drew McIntrye does. Look that up on YouTube and tell me if you're thinking something similar to that.
And I can't stress enough, when it comes to gimmicks, simpler is better. If you go overboard, then it'll be much more difficult for fans to follow. What WWE and any other big name promotion wants is for people who are new to the show or older to the show, to be able to watch and understand what's going in from the get-go. If there is a major back story no one gets unless they have followed a person for years, then it'll be tougher to get more fans behind them.
A friend of mine was new to WWE a few months back, and can watch and understand everything now pretty easy. People hate when nothing makes sense. lol
Use just that simple name I told you of, then really build around everything involving that gimmick. If you can do that, but make it simple enough that any all and can understand, you'll be in good shape.
I'll still be here, trust me. If not, we of course have plenty of other experts to help. They may not be as good though! ;) jk.
