Repackaging is one of the most exciting parts of professional wrestling. It's the art of taking a floundering talent, putting different clothes on him, referring to him by a different name, and watching him get a second (third or fourth) chance at connecting with the audience and becoming a superstar. Repackaging has turned Terra Ryzing into Triple H, Stunning Steve into Stone Cold, Mean Mark into The Undertaker and most recently, Husky Harris into Bray Wyatt.
Today is your turn Wrestlezone forums. For I am bequeathing unto you the power to take any superstar of your choosing and remake him in your own image! Which talent will you breathe second life into with the resurrection power known as repackaging?
Mine, I'm sure will be controversial.... he's probably the most stale character in WWE, he's in dire need of a heel turn. He has not grown or evolved in over decade. Despite his ability to put together solid matches, his move set has become repetitive and predictable. Of course, I'm talking about Rob Van Dam.... :-)
First thing I would do is see if Rob is willing to cut his 1990's oldest brother from Home Improvement haircut. I would turn him heel, put a suit on him and place him with the authority. I would use him as kind of a hitman-like character (profession, not Bret Hart). With his background in martial arts, I think he could pull this off really well. His in ring style would have to change a bit, he'd after be more aggressive and flip around less. I'd encourage him to establish himself as more of a wily veteran who will cut any corners to get the job done. A new finisher would do wonders for him as well. He can still use his acrobatic spot monkey style, but only in circumstances where power, technique, and cunning would fail him.
So how about you? Who will you repackage?
