Actually I came up with this idea, at least half of it. I said a few weeks ago that he should repackage. I basically said he should go back to his old theme, but a little more than that. It's not the first time I have mentioned this for Goldust. Look at my thread history. I have said this before and then some.
I have been a long time fan of his since the very beginning. His early heel work is some of his best work, if not the best work. I want that old Goldust back. He's been around longer than anyone else active on the roster minus a few names, but he is full time as well. I can't recall the last time he received a world title match.
Granted he isn't a match for Lesnar. Honestly, I wouldn't want to see him in a match vs Brock anyhow. Someone else would have to be champion and it would certainly have to be a face. Goldust is at his best when he plays the role of a heel. He has depth and I think he should go back to his roots. Find another valet and call her Diamond Skye.
Goldust "The Director's Cut"
I would have him go back to the original look and a combination of today's look. Vintage should be key with this revamped, but simply rekindled character. This character should "hate" The Rock with a passion. Criticizing The Rock's movies should be his thing and part of his character. Goldust should look more like something out of Rocky Horror Picture Show. I am serious.
Red lipstick, ugly wig, far out and extreme attire when necessary. Not taking up so much of the Gold in the Goldust character would be great. He paired with a valet whom he would could Diamond Skye. He would first make a doll replica of her and she would then come to him in human form. He should be this character that is jaded, yet hungry for the top of the WWE mountain, obsessed with the only gold he's never had. WWE World title, or Universal gold.
might be reading too much into that but seeing as goldust is pretty much going back to the old darker gimmick I wouldnt be surprised if this is the last go around for dustin.
I loved the Golddust of 1996, those were his best moments, feuding with Razor Ramon and Undertaker. Goldust reminded me of Tim Curry from Rocky Horror Show. It was so good.
Its a shame that kids today will only know Goldust as a comedy act. Which he wasnt back then, he was creepy, he was bizarre, and he made you feel uncomfortable on purpose, he was one of the best IC holders in my opinion too.
Now WWE will probably fuck it up. I would like to see him win the IC title again for one last run. But it wont happen.
Goldust has always been amazing. Greatest in ring performer and talent to never have won the WWE title and worked for over 20 years. Such a funny guy, biggest damn shame they can't even let him and truth have a run with the gold. Stupid assholes.
