Plain white trunks almost always make you look like you're wrestling in a diaper and I can't take you seriously, why do wrestlers still do this

Choom Gangster posted:Can we also talk about facepaint in here? Surfer Sting and Tama Tonga's are my personal faves. One of my favorite Jericho stories (possibly apocryphal, given the source) is that he lost his long tights during a flight, switched to trunks on short notice, then Vince saw him and was like "goddamn where have you been hiding those beefy thighs" and he wore the trunks ever since then. You could do a massive effortpost on Jericho's gear and the way it perfectly matches his evolving character over the years. When he went to New Japan and became a crazy dad brawler he just wore regular pants, and it works so well.

Speaking of Nia, let us not forget the horrendous gear she wore on her NXT debut Why someone looked at a plus-sized woman wrestler and decided on "skintight outfit with bright colors that calls attention to her weight in the worst possible ways" is beyond me. She immediately ditched that for the black leather, which is still generic but at least doesn't look like a failed attempt at Sexy Magic Carpet cosplay.

I know he probably wrapped his feet and/or wore some kind of brace underneath, but I'm still impressed that John Cena wrestled in sneakers for like 15 years and his ankles are still intact.

I think Tommy Dreamer got away with it back in the day since his whole gimmick was being an everyman schlub, which played well with ECW crowds who got behind him as an underdog. He uh, doesn't quite get away with it today now that he's supposed to be a grizzled legend here to Teach These Kids a Lesson (which apparently means still wearing the dumb polka dots when Dusty's been dead for like 4 years at this point).

People wrestling in a T-shirt is a very controversial topic, but as a fair man, I'd prefer to go on a case-by-case basis as to whether it's a deliberate artistic choice or just trying to hide a beer gut. In the case of Tommy Dreamer, I think we can all agree that nobody ever needs to see him shirtless, even in the 90s.
