Skeeball Wizard Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Two things; I desperately want Devitt to show up in WWE with an old WWF gimmicks cosplay, Devitt as Abe "Knuckleball" Schwartz or The Goon would be wonderful . Also, who did the Thundercats cosplay?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dank Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 rovert's doing a parody of someone, right? Maybe JKPURO/Jason Kreitzer? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustronaut Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 The difference between Devitt and most of what Matt posted is that Matt's stuff was 90% gimmick, whereas Devitt's gimmick is cosplaying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kind of disappointed that he missed the perfect opportunity to bust out a backbreaker or two during that entrance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not though. "Dave Meltzer is the pinnacle of wrestling journalism!" No Bleacher Report and Masked Man are. The paradigm has changed, brother. rovert's doing a parody of someone, right? Maybe JKPURO/Jason Kreitzer? Or simply most of this thread it is as funny as some are acting. The funnier aspects of Irish stereotype gimmicks haven't been hit upon. Just the lame dull stuff. The difference between Devitt and most of what Matt posted is that Matt's stuff was 90% gimmick, whereas Devitt's gimmick is cosplaying. How is it cosplaying? Most of the time he takes it all off or breaks character. Leva Bates does a cosplay gimmick too but she sticks the character. The whole cosplay labelling is more from Yanks looking from the outside in. Simply Devitt is dressing up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 The funny thing is that when it comes to actually figuring out what anyone of us are thinking or talking about, the poor guy has the aim of well...

rovert Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Not really. It is easy enough to see though the poorly executed references (Michael Collin wut?) and poor jokes. Especially yours, Matt D. Continue google imaging Wrestlers dressing up and shoehorning posts around it though. Great stuff that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticks the character of the cosplayer gimmick, or the character she's dressed as? I'm an uber-casual fan of anything, so if cosplayers are actually running around outside pretending to be whomever and not just getting pictures taken/taking part in a costume contest, that's above my nerd interest pay grade.

Spritenaut 32 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 There are a surprising number of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in wrestling (the one pictured is Chris Champion, I believe). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't thoroughly read up on it but cosplay is about "playing" a character it is not fancy dress. But anyway I don't understand why Matt D is continues to "act out" the way he does when no amount of googing imaging or grab bag referencing Irish tings will out do what Devitt posted himself: Top o' the mornin to ye! What do you think of ME new look? @WWESheamus @BeckyLynchWWE @PaulTraceyLOTM @RossBrowne1 pic.twitter.com/qF6GYZoNSW If this is his WWE gimmick I will be more than happy.

Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Devitt should do a drunk American frat boy at the NYC St. Patrick's day parade gimmick. He can vomit on the ramp on the way to the ring and get a bad tattoo after every match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimo Necro Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Maybe Devitt could cosplay as Hornswoggle and Sheamus could cosplay as Finlay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammo~! Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 You guys. Devitt is doing CosPLAY. You know where you have fun and dress up as a character you like. When you run around a convention pretending to be that character that's CosSRSBSNS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Spanish Waiter Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Devitt should play a guy who is the butt of all the jokes, like a true Irishman. He should be called Paddy Murphy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
