Brodie Lee was probably the closest to horror but was handicapped by the lovable dorks he surrounded himself with. Brodie Lee himself was a threat, however. Otherwise there's HoB, but a certain someone handicapped themselves by refusing to be pinned, which torpedoed that gimmick.
Old Man Yao Guai (@hgn-732b.bsky.social) reply parent
The problem with a horror gimmick is that they have to be a threat while constrained by what you can do in the context of a weekly wrestling TV show. Triangle of Madness are just 3 goth mean girls. They don't have magic powers.

Within this context, we appreciate pro wrestling for what it truly is, which is simulated faux combat and story telling with everyone being in on that fact. Pro wrestling is truly at its best when the story being told is so engaging that disbelief is suspended.

You seem to be labouring under the misapprehension that pro wrestling fans think pro wrestling is a legitimate contest, or shoot. We are well aware that pro wrestling is not a shoot, but a work, which is to say predetermined and the purpose is not to actually beat the other guy into submission.

The accusations of "King of the Indies" that AEW/RoH used to get were not entirely unwarranted (as to your point, there was a lot of 2 people wrestling to find out who's better), but that's what indies have to do and it isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Wrestling is best when out of ring story and in ring combine into a melange of awesomeness. See Hangman's fall and redemption. Both times. But I watch wrestling for the wrestling, so in ring is always going to be important.
