Face paint, but for only one star, who would it be?

I am going with The Miz and hear me out. I think he should have some sort of nervous break down, or tragedy putting him over the edge. Of course it should be some "face" that finally sets Miz off. I miss the days where professional wrestlers would take from pop culture, past, or present. Take for example Sting using The Crow gimmick, or look. I find that it would be interesting to see The Miz take on this path as well, but not as "The Crow" gimmick.

I was thinking more along the lines of the Joker from The Suicide Squad, fake grills, green hair, and leather coat. Miz is a solid character, but this would be an alter ego that has taken over and simply known as Mizery. The WWE used to take from pop culture rather often and do it in their own way. I was typically hit, or miss. Today's wrestling crowd might appreciate something along these lines. Miz has been around long enough to realize he needs to change and do it sooner that later.

Wrong Celtic country there bro, Braveheart is Scotland, Sheamus is Ireland. They're not remotely the same thing tbh.

To answer the question, I don't really think any of the established stars need face paint, especially not the Miz who's killing it with his current character. If they really wanted a new facepaint character I'd rather they just make a new one in NXT.

I'll say Curtis Axel.

He understands the business well enough from the cartoon era to know how to pull it off, similar to Cory Rhodes/Stardust, and he could carve out a nice little section in the mid card and sell some merch. He'd get a small push at the very least.
