Ok here is one that hasn't been done!!! Best of the best career saving gimmick!!


My pick is going to Kane. Before that Glenn Jacob's run in WWE was pretty quick. Issac Yankhem was a brief run in WWE and then he had to play the "new" Diesel once Kevin Nash went to WCW.

So which gimmicks do you believe have saved wrestlers careers?

This should be intresting!!!

I think that most careers have been saved by actually letting go of the gimmicks. not necessarily grabbing a new one.

I'm trying to think of someone that was already established but needed the character change in order to survive. The only one i can come up with right now is Bradshaw going from Acolyte/APA to JBL Millionaire.

Bradshaw. Glenn Jacobs had more time left in his career. He could have found something else. With Bradshaw, not so much.

i don't see it as career saver either, but definitely added that spark that he needed. If he ever wins WWE gold, is now or never.
