Gimmicks And Props Wrestlers Use Most Often To Please Crowds
Wrestlers, no matter if they are in major federations or in smaller ones, have gimmicks and use props to help make their act more entertaining to the fans. Fans are vital to the success or failure of any wrestling federation. The paragraphs below will briefly touch on some of the most commonly used props and gimmicks for professional wrestlers.
If a wrestler sees an electric guitar for sale, he will likely jump at the chance to purchase it. This is because guitar gimmicks seem to be popular with the fans. Nothing is more fun than seeing an electric guitar smashed over top of someone’s head! This is normally grounds for an immediate disqualification for the offender, but boy does it make the crowd pop!
Next, wrestlers have been known to use gimmicks that involve helmets. Some of the wrestlers use gimmicks that entail riding motorcycles to the ring wearing a helmet. Others just wear a helmet so that they can throw it to the fans before starting their match. Once I saw a wrestler with a black helmet gimmick where he would head butt his opponent while wearing the helmet. A blood capsule was taped to the top of the helmet and exploded upon impact.
Face paint and make up are other great tools when it comes to crowd pleasing wrestling gimmicks. Some of the most popular wrestlers of all times have come to the ring with make up painted on their faces. It drives the crowd wild, and many fans even paint their faces to match their favorite wrestler.
Wearing full face masks is one of the most popular gimmicks in professional wrestling entertainment. There are so many different story lines can evolve around wearing a mask. Say that a wrestler is forced to leave the company due to a ‘loser leave town’ match. He can come back masked! In addition, several Mexican wrestlers wear masks because it is an honor.
Lastly, many wrestlers where underwear type bottoms as a part of their gimmicks. When this is the case, men waxing products are used as a tool to remove unwanted body hair. Unless their body hair is a part of their gimmick, hair removal products are often used regularly by wrestlers. Baby oils is often used, as well, to give their skin a shiny look.
Props and gimmicks are a part of wrestling that is very necessary. It is very important to please the fans. If the fans walk away from a show disappointed, they are not likely to attend another. The gimmicks and props discussed above are only a drop in a big bucket. The possibilities are endless.
