What is Jeff Hardy's new and revolutionary gimmick?

What distinguishes him from any other leader of a heel stable? Well, I don't think he's a black to everyone else's white, but I guess the way he's being booked and his attitude make him stand out. We don't see a whole hell of a lot from Hardy in the ring, he always jumps from

Jeff is different to begin with. He's such a big weirdo in his personal life that he can't help it but be as odd as he is in the ring as well. Like, I know AJ dresses like some white rapper, drives bikes and all of that, which is totally not what he's like on TV. Jeff is just a weird guy. He paints weird, he dresses weird, he looks weird, so chances are he'll come off different in the ring as well. The guy has a different mentality about everything. I can't help but respect that.

What distinguishes him from any other leader of a heel stable? Well, I don't think he's a black to everyone else's white, but I guess the way he's being booked and his attitude make him stand out. We don't see a whole hell of a lot from Hardy in the ring, he always jumps from behind, plays mind tricks, does creepy backstage promos. I can't recall a heel leader like him. The big heel stables, current and past, I can think of are Nexus, Main Event Mafia, nWo, Evolution, Legacy.

Wade Barret is a ground and pound big guy and he's nothing like Hardy.

I wasn't watching TNA when MEM was around so I'll assume that Angle was their leader and he's also nothing like Hardy.

nWo's leader was Hogan and from what I hear he was booked in a similiar way. Not showing his face much and rarely wrestling so it feels more special when he is. TNA has done just that. I mean, ever since Hardy won the belt the world title matches started having an even more formal introduction, UFC-like and everything and I can't help but like that.

Evolution and Legacy - no chance.

So in the end, he's more similiar to Hogan than anyone else. It's like Bischoff and Russo booked this. Oh wait!

Is antichrist just a cool term for a heel or is it specific character? If so what are the characteristics of such a character? Has Jeff shown such characteristics so far?

I think it's cool. It's edgy and I don't believe it comes even close to what some other wrestler has used. I think he slapped that moniker on himself basically because he was such a fan favourite and he turned his back on them now. I don't think Jeff's showing any characteristics of being AntiChrist now. It's just a cool name that sounds right for the occasion and... that's it.

The only way for that name to have substance is if Immortal is like a promised land for any wrestler on the TNA roster. A lot of people think that the Anti Christ will be some ugly son of a bitch who hates everything and everybody, slaughters christians and all of that. Not true. He'll be a man that everyone loves and praises, he'll build a wonderful world for the people and be the most gracious and loving human being on this planet, and if you want to be a part of this heaven on Earth that he created, you'll have to bare the mark of the beast 666 on either the back of your neck or your wrist.

See THAT would be a cool gimmick. "Immortal" being the promised land for the wrestlers, giving them access to power, protection, titles, money and everything they need. But the only way for them to become a part of it is to be marked with some symbol(which I suppose every member of Immortal has) and turn his back on Dixie and TNA. Something like that.
