I hate how absolutely possible this could be.

Porky!
Goddammit, lol.
If they do bring Geno back though there better be an Axem Rangers reference somewhere if there isn't one.
BREAKER BEAM FINAL SMASH!
I still want a Mallow announcement to troll the fuck out of everyone. The amount of REEEEEEEEEEE would be glorious.
There will be people losing their shit no matter what. It's one thing that makes Smash reveals so fun.
EDIT: Also on that note are there any upcoming fighting tournaments or something similar that seem like a plausible time for Nintendo to reveal the 5th character for this DLC pack?
I would not be upset in the slightest of Mallow got the nod over Geno. Mallow has enough good spells and funny animations to work out just fine.
Rumour floating around that Ryu from Ninja Gaiden is the next DLC character
He was rumored to be it before Terry, so that's not surprising.
Also, the Brew (guy who leaked PP) leaks on 4chan seem to have been from a fake Brew and not the real one. The leaks involved Geno being a fake leak to catch leakers and the next 5 DLC included the likes of Max from Scribblenauts and King Hippo from Punch Out.
I’m all for King Hippo, especially if his pants fall while taking damage.
Super Macho Man would be my preferred punch out Villian. Flexing all over people and the Macho Spin Punch are just too good.
If they can make him like in the Wii game I'd be all over that
His intro is hilarious. The flexes with the wink are just too much.
And those god-tier pecs
Gird your loins, this may be a doozie.

It's being mentioned by a few people how modding Mii Fighters has been impossible so far. If this is fake, then someones figured out how to do it without telling anyone and decided to troll us all.
Edit: Small rumor that Mallow may be joined by a Smithy Mii Swordfighter costume as well. That to me is more troublesome because with Mallow being the Mii Brawler and Smithy being the Swordfighter, Geno as Gunner completes that trio without getting in as a fighter.
Edit 2: Someone did current patch testing on Ken damage compared to the video. With the current patch it is possible to have Ken put out the damage numbers he does.
Edit 3: Some changes from this AM regarding the ability to mod Smash Ultimate. Characters can be swapped willy nilly because they have much larger file sizes. Mii Fighters are unique in that they have a very specific file size (2 MB is being bandied around) and anything above or below that size compression wise causes the game to crash. This becomes an issue because while in Smash 4 Mii Fighers and accompanying accessories were one size, these same additions in Ultimate change the size of the fighter in different ways to achieve this size limit. That makes a highly detailed mod (such as Mallow's helmet here) very difficult if not impossible to mod without access to Nintendo's tools.
Edit 4: Sabi is waiting on word from her (is it a she?) source about authenticity, but it is worth noting that a lot of the standard industry leakers here have now gone oddly silent.
Edit 5: There have been two claims to discredit this leak. The first one modded a simple cube with 2 textures into the Mii Fighter, then admitted that something akin to the Mallow hat would be very difficult and kind of backed down on their claim it was fake. Theres also two people on a discord somewhere who are claiming they created the leak to showcase that Mii modding is now a thing, but have delivered no proof to back up these claims.
