Outlook - In WCW's dying days, Jamie Knoble appeared on the scene and was a very promising youngster. He was a veteran on the indies and probably would have climbed the cruiserweight ladder quickly. Instead he had to work his butt off in the HWA to keep his job and eventually get called up. Jamie Noble was given a trailer trash gimmick and paired with Nidia and it was a big hit. The touring schedule, variety of opponents and stress on character turned Noble into an excellent wrestler in practically no time. After being released in 2004, James Gibson, as he became known, emerged as a world class worker in New Japan, Ring of Honor and numerous indies. The WWE resigned him and has yet to push him as they should, but he is one of the best workers. Noble is a total package and if given the right push could be an excellent supporting character.
