>LA WHAT? DAMMIT, I SAID YOUR NAME IS MAX DUPRI AND YOU'RE GOING TO RUN A MALE MODELING AGENCY. NOW PUT ON THOSE FUCKING GLASSES AND ESCORT THOSE FAGGOTS TO THE RING!
I want to know if the "Vince Dancing Gimmick" theory is real....the theory that if Vince was done with you in his mind, he'd give you a dancing gimmick
>>20445342 MXM talked about this. They’re convinced that Vince got Robert Stone and LA Knight mixed up. They thought Stone would have been perfect for Max and LA tried but Vince was constantly brow beating him. They also thought that when Maxxine Dupri was announced, they weren’t told who she was going to be, that it was going to be LA in dress. Also really funny that Maximum Male Models was Vince’s last gimmick idea and he was super hands on with it.
>>20445403 Not a drone but there are a lot of wrestlers that never would've made it to the big leagues if they weren't given some wacky 2 month run type gimmick, so at least they got their entry and could make some money. And it not like it was impossible to get over with a stupid gimmick, many did it and had great careers afterwards.
>>20445403 >>20445729 Scotty 2 Hotty only got over because of dancing. Rikishi too. And it worked fine for Disco Inferno over in WCW. Believe it or not, he was actually over and got good pops back in the day. Rico worked as a heel too and got great reactions (and was an underrated worker too) although I guess he was more a flaming homo than a dancer.
>>20445355 He clearly was waiting in 90% of these instances for the wrestler to go "Vince what are you talking about" so he could start laughing and say "NAH I WAS JUST KIDDIN PAL" but they never said anything so he was like well fuck it lets go with it.
>>20445342 Reminder he told Stevie Richards he was gonna have a homo gimmick. Then when Stevie went away, thought about it, and came back asking why, Vince looked him dead in the eyes, and angrily said "YOU'RE A PROUD....GAY.....AMERRRIIICCCAAAN!" then walked off. https://youtu.be/AdOx32zBrc0?si=Pyh0o_0oynFPMsip&t=521
>>20459226 I think its funny how vince would want to take straight dudes and strap them with flaming faggot gimmicks, but never capitalized on the shoot homos he had employed
