Akeem still rates high with me, although the WWF put out some real crap in the early / mid 90s.
Norman Smiley is a sad case. He's a great wrestler, and worked well as a tecnico in a lot of the lucha feds, but to get over in WCW he had to play a screaming nancy boy. Oh well, I cheered for you, Norman. Big Wiggle Style.
As for the Ding Dongs....EASILY the worst gimmick ever. You had to see them to believe them. I submit to you, from a Scott Keith rant (NWA Clash of the Champions 7), his explanation of the Ding Dong phenomena:
George South & Cougar Jay v. The Ding-Dongs. And you thought the Ding-Dongs were just a tall tale that young promoters got told about by their mothers at night to keep them from trying out bad gimmicks on decent wrestlers. Nope, they really existed and they debuted on this show. The scary thing is that Ding-Dongs were actually the IMPROVED version of a Jim Herd brainfart. See, Herd's big idea to spruce up the company in 1989 was to start marketing to children and using some of the cheaper talent to portray wrestlers who would get the kids to come out. So his first plan was to take a couple of jobbers and give them hunchback gimmicks, and have them bring a big bell out to ringside like Quasimodo had in the book. They'd presumably be called the Hunchbacks of Notre Dame University or something equally cerebral. Okay, now here's the really high-concept part of the plan: Because they're hunchbacks and have these big humps on their back, it would be IMPOSSIBLE to pin them, because their shoulders could never be on the mat, right? Okay, so this idea actually makes it to the drawing board stage and Herd goes to Ole Anderson to implement it, and they get into a big argument about it, because Ole thought it was total horseshit and they could be beaten in 10 seconds flat by anyone. Herd wanted to know exactly how you could pin them if they were hunchbacks? Ole responded that you didn't pin them, you pushed them over on their hump and then put them in a spinning toehold until they submitted. So there went that idea before anything could be done with it. But, Herd reasoned, the BELL was a ratings winning idea just waiting to be exploited. So Herd took Joel and Fred Deaton, dressed them in orange bodysuits with little bells taped to their legs, and gave them a big bell for the outside man to ring while the other guy wrestled. And thus the Ding-Dongs were born. I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP. And as everyone except Jim Herd predicted, not 4 seconds after making their initial entrance, the Ding-Dongs were completely booed out of the building. As for me, the burden of having to sit through a Ding-Dongs match was offset by the pleasant surprise of seeing old-time Crockett jobbers Jay & South for the first time in a long while. And by the way, I'd highly recommend tracking down the Ding-Dongs initial appearance on the NWA Power Hour around the same time, because Jim Cornette was the color commentator and he just completely BURIED them for the entire match and bitched about how stupid he felt even covering the match. The actual match here is secondary to the backstory, so suffice it to say that the Ding Dongs squash the jobbers and finish them with a vanilla double-team finisher (flying kneedrop and flying elbow combo) at 3:26, before fading quietly into the long history of stupidity that is WCW. Jim Ross and Bob Caudle basically apologize in-depth to all the fans still watching and bury the whole concept after the match, which almost makes up for him shilling beer and pizza in the second match. Of course, the next month they started having sponsors buying turnbuckles, which led to such lines as "And Luger goes hard to the Coors Light turnbuckle!", but such is life in Corporate America when you're owned by Ted Turner. «*

I miss Wrestlecrap.com. That site was always good for a laugh.
I forgot to mention the WORST gimmick ever used by indy wrestler Chris Champion (and he's used a bunch of bad ones) - Kowabung, the wrestling ninja turtle.
Yes, it's as bad as it sounds. Thank God it was just used for comedic purposes, and wasn't serious. Unlike the Ding Dongs.

I'm suprised nobody mentioned:
"The Shockmaster"! Who probably had the most horrific debut for a wrestler by tripping over through the entrance set wall, while in the process had his mask come off, which by the way is nothing more than a stormtrooper helmet! What an Idiot! Before that, he was Tugboat, another crappy gimmick.
Honorable mention also goes to Kevin Nash's first gimmick as "Oz" from a wizard of Oz themed gimmick. WCW in the Early to mid-90's sucked donkey balls!
Now can you Dig that!!!
Sucka!!!
I mentioned the shockmaster interview a few weeks ago. It was on Flair's interview show "A Flair for the gold" and I think it was the L.O.D. introducing him against Psycho Sid and Harlem Heat (when they were still known as Kane and Kole). Even after he tripped and the helmet rolled to their feet, they still acted terrified of him. It was the greatest interview ever. But he never wrestled as Shockmaster. They made him like a clumsy uncle or something,
Anyone remember Norman the Maniac?

Norman the Lunatic and Friar Ferguson were two really horrible gimmicks used by Mike Shaw, who I've talked about in the Trivia thread. Shaw was a good worker, who got stuck with a ton of bad gimmicks. His most infamous one was the dreaded Bastion Booger!
How about Max Moon? It was a gimmick originally conceived for Konnan, but he ditched the WWF shortly after arriving (which pissed off the brass, and caused bad blood which still exists today). Then they gave the gimmick to old AWA favorite Paul Diamond, but it sort of all faded away shortly afterward.
One of my favorite bad gimmicks was Ballz Mahoney as Xanta Claus. God, that was awful!

I can't believe no one even mentioned Barry Windham as the Stalker.;)
Did you just bad mouth Baron Von Rashke? A kid on my grandfathers block used to have his tshirt before wrestlers sold t-shirts.
How could no one have mentioned the worst gimick of all?
WCW started by just showing a symbol and saying it is coming.
Then the rumors started that it had something to do with Kevin Nash.
Then they just showed the symbol and the word Glacier for about 2 months.
Then they showed the Symbol with the word Glacier and then a shadow and random body parts doing some martial arts for about 6 weeks.
FInally the Nash Rumors die.
Then he debuts. And sucks ass with his snow storm in the arena and for some reason, Tony Schiavone mentioning the rest of his family were cops and he bucked the trend and studied martial arts.
Then they brought in other Mortal Kombat rip offs Mortis (Kanyon) and Wrath (Brian Clark) to make it more "exciting".
God, why did I ever watch wrestling?
Then the rumor of Eric Bischoff having a clue never took off.

His entrance started with a bad Ole Anderson voice over, followed by him breaking through the wall wearing a silver glitter covered Stormtrooper helmet, promptly followed by him tripping over the scenery, falling down and his helmet falling off revealing none other than "Tugboat" Thomas.

C'mon! Don't talk bad about the BARON!!!
Glacier was awful. God, it would have been different if the guy had any talent, but he was just pitiful. I was thankful when they brought in Mortis (Kanyon) and Wrath, and even to a lesser extent, Ernest Miller, because at least those three were passable.
The Shockmaster's entrance was maybe the most inadvertently funny moment in all of pro wrestling. If you look closely at Sting & Davey Boy, they're trying their hardest not to laugh out loud.
God....someone had to bring up the Robocop appearance. Forget what everyone says about WCW - THAT was the lowest point (if you forget Arquette). Capitol Combat 90 - Robocop as the "special enforcer". Everyone must have been taking massive amounts of narcotics around that time.

What about Glacier. His intro would be longer than the time it took for him to get his ass kicked. Gilberg was a great gimmick, especially at the Royal Rumble that one time.

Ok i have a few of the worst wrestling gimmicks...
Bob "sparkplug" Holly, He has been mentioned several times already. Thank God for self-motivation, weights and steroids.
The Nasty Boyz, they totally sucked. Or maybe I was expecting more nastiness out of them. I felt that they were ten years two late to be used as a wrestling gimmick.
Two that were introduced by Harvey Whippleman were Big Bully Busick and Adam Bomb. I mean bomb had potential, large man, good wrestling skills, etc. But like all potentials, it remained that potential...
And for the finally, remember that little nerdy Sol Rosenberg (Jerky boy reference) guy that used to hang out at ringside and got picked on by Money Inc. (Another bad gimmick that was used all wrong IRS should have been against DiBiase), I believe the nerdy guys name was Irwin....Oyyyyyy Vey what a bad gimmick. All these were at the height of the bad/early 90's period of the WWF...

Thank you WWF Fallon for the sig

Irwin R. Shyster. Not as bad as Isaac Yankem, but boy did that gimmick get old.
Sergeant Slaughter turning heel and siding with the Iraqis during Desert Storm. Um, OK... good heat, I'll give him that, and it was timely (and a nice reversal of his Iron Sheik feud so many years ago) but I thought it was ultimately dumb.
The Fabulous ROOUUUUUUUUGEAU Brothers in the early 90s. "We're from Canada! We love America! We're from Canada! Right, my brother? Yes, my brother!" I never understood that one, anyway.
