Top 5 'Superhero' gimmicks in professional wrestling

4. Super Eric

Eric Young, who is known for taking up close to a hundred gimmicks, took up the Super Eric in 2008. Like all his other roles Young portrayed the superhero in an entertaining and comic manner which was a treat for the young wrestling fans. Young even went on to make a super hero league in TNA by forming an alliance with Curry Man and Shark Boy. The justice league inspired alliance was called the “The Prince Justice Brotherhood” and was successful to an extent. Though the gimmick was short lived, it proved to be an important milestone in Young’s career, with most fans pointing it as the reason for his confidence in the ring.
