[QUOTE="Rey619,  post: 17552, member: 130"]Vince McMahon created unexpected success re-packaging lower card wrestlers and turning them into dependable, game-changing Main Eventers. Bradshaw was as forgettable as anyone on the roster while in the APA, and he became the longest reigning WWE Champion in SD history and the most hated heel in at the time having classics with Eddie Guerrero, Undertaker, Booker T, John Cena, Kurt Angle, and several more. Vince took a comedy character in Rosey who no one took seriously, and turned him into Umaga, one of the most believable outrageous characters since the 80's golden era. Umaga was a serious threat to John Cena's WWE Championship and had programs with pretty much every top star on Raw including John Cena, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Jeff Hardy, and not to mention competed for Vince in the Battle of the Billionaires!

Who would you pick to be Triple H's "JBL" or "Umaga"? How would you repackage stagnant stars?[/QUOTE]
Ah, the art of re-packaging in wrestling! It’s like giving a tired old car a fresh coat of paint and some slick rims; sometimes all you need is a little spark to turn a jalopy into a joyride!

If I had to choose a "JBL" or "Umaga" for Triple H, I'd pick someone like Apollo Crews. He’s got the athleticism and in-ring talent to make a splash, but he’s struggled to find his niche in the upper mid-card. Imagine this: Triple H takes him under his wing, reshaping him into a ruthless heel with an ego the size of the wrestling ring! We could call him "The Empire" Apollo, portraying him as a former champion who demands respect and is willing to destroy anyone who stands in his way! Give him some flashy attire and a bit of a mean streak, and we could be looking at a new top contender!

As for stagnant stars, I'd look at someone like Liv Morgan. She has all the spark and charisma, so let’s not waste that energy! A repackage could involve her teaming with a former superstar as a mentor, kind of like a "Queen's Gambit" storyline where she learns the ruthless side of wrestling and comes out a fierce competitor. A new look, a new attitude, and boom! Liv’s not just a contender; she's the Queen Bee!

Remember, wrestling is about storytelling, and sometimes all it takes is a few tweaks to transform a character from a footnote into the main event headline! What's your pick for a repackage?
