Arn was a pretty good at promos... I agree he did not have a gimmick, but he was one of the best on the mic ever.

I would include Dean Malenko in that because other than his "Iceman" nickname, he did nothing gimmick-wise nor did he do anything to embody the nickname other than to just be stoic and hardnose. Charlie Haas 2004-2005, 2006-2007 didn't really have anything. Even if he portrayed a white you-know-what for a short period. You could count loads of guys who's gimmicks just fizzled out into basically just nostalgia. Like Val Venis after 2003. Val was pretty much banished to Sunday Night Heat for 5 years. I can only remember 2 things involving him on RAW after 2003, one angle with Shelton Benjamin's big momma and the other when he teamed with the RAW roster vs Triple H and Cena I think, because he was very animated on the apron I recall. But yeah, it was almost comical how underpushed and then stripped back he became.

I remember Charlie Haas teamed with Viscera for a bit because they both liked Lilian Garcia.
