  1. Good share, thanks. We have definitely run afoul of some “lazy stereotype” gimmicks in our game, especially since all but one of my group aren’t really into wrestling, and have only faded memories of late-80s/early-90s WWF on which to base impressions.

    It’s a lot of work to enjoy the over-the-top spectacle nature of the game (and of the theatre it’s emulating) without treading the same harmful ground.

  2. I agree that it is a lazy gimmick, but it is certainly part of the wrestling tradition dating back to it’s beginnings. It’s also been done by some of the greats. Iron Sheik still ranks at the top of my list for great heels of all time.

  3. King Cuerno and Sexy Star of Lucha Underground were faces or heels depending on which country they were performing in, but I think they also had different masks and names when they wrestled in different countries.
