| I think Mick suits you justice. We have a plethora of knowledge surrounding Foley's gimmicks, and you seem to excel as this "psycho". |

| Lannister's AWF memory tells him to say Rowan. But Lannister also likes you as Mankind. Perhaps a lean for Rowan. But ultimately - up to you! |

| You work well imo with Mankind, but I can also see you working with Erick Rowan and actually, possibly Abyss. |

| When you debuted the character in EAW and chose to be Mankind instead of Rowan, I didn't understand why, nor did I really like it. However, I think you've done a great job, and the promos you've done in my opinion sound much more like something Mankind would say as opposed to the "genius" Erik Rowan.
You made me forget you were even Rowan. I say don't change. |

| I didn't think anyone could change until after the draft. But if you can then I'd say think about it for at least a week and if you still want to change then go for it. |

You made me forget you were even Rowan. I say don't change. Why I changed pic bases when I brought Brody to EAW is a good question and explains a bit why I'm having this idea of changing pic bases again. Basically when I came to EAW, with Norman having a similar gimmick to the one Brody was using, I felt if I went with Rowan people might see it as me blatantly ripping off Norman. So I was originally going to use Abyss, but then when the problems arose that someone had Abyss reserved, the suggestion was thrown out that I could use Mankind. So I ask people to tell me which of the three people liked better for my character. It was pretty much a dead even split between Rowan and Mankind, so I went with Mankind to differentiate myself. Now I'm considering going back to Rowan because I'm starting to feel Mankind doesn't fit the in-ring ability I've envisioned for Brody. Pretty much the case for both bases are as follows: Erick Rowan - Nostalgia. People who were in AWF were introduced to the character with this base, so that's how they see him. Mankind - People think the pic base fits better with that promos I've written and feel I've used the pic base well. Both cases make sense, and leaves me torn. If anyone else wants to add their two cents in before I make a decision, I'd like to hear it. |

| It's up to you. I think Mankind fits your promos, but subconsciously speaking I wonder if the writers or others don't perceive your character to be the size that he is based on him being a smaller pic base in comparison. Mankind doesn't exactly scream powerhouse, compared to someone like Rowan who I think fits you better in that light. |

| I don't think it matters because both bases fits you well. If anything I would suggest to stick with mankind because when I read your promos I think of Mankind in the mid 90s when he was paired with Paul Bearer. |

There's an idea I didn't consider. Maybe I should keep Mankind, but make Brody a bit shorter. |

| The positive thing about being Rowan is he had more psds and video material. I haven't forgotten about the trons you asked me to do btw I just haven't found good mankind/hardy clips. |

I didn't think you had. If it's getting to be too hard to find good stuff for the trons, then don't worry about it. They don't need to have trons, it was just something I thought might be cool. Thanks anyway for trying. Also, after much consideration, I've decided to change my pic base back to Rowan. I do this because, as Scott pointed out, there really wasn't any reason to change in the first place when I brought him over to EAW from AWF. Also, based on the wrestling style I want for him, Rowan makes much more sense. And finally, everyone seemss to like Rowan better. Although many have said they think I fit the Mankind pic base well, the fact that others like Rowan means that pic base fits too. In the end, I think Mankind as a pic base is too limiting. Thanks for the help guys! |

| @Kerry: You do great with Candido, but I think TRE and the other GFX artists will have a difficulty to find his HQ render. If I could recommend you for a new picbase, you can change it to Hardcore Holly if you want |
