I was just looking through some old threads and found one about outfits that wrestlers wore briefly and are pretty much forgotten or weird to see once we are used to a certain look. Alas, like many great threads, there are a lack of pics-in fact there were none, so for the sake of this thread, post some examples of rare looks, for instance... Hulk Hogan with blue tights-not super rare if you were a fan back in the day, but I'm sure some fans never saw him wearing anything but red and yellow Or who could forget Undertaker and those weird pants from Survivor Series 2000? or Triple H with white boots What do you have to add?

After the UnAmericans split up, Christian went through a period of wearing a singlet top that just looked weird on him, after years of seeing him in the goth shirts and the mesh tops. Granted, he wore this look for a good 6-7 months, but even watching older matches, it just stands out as really strange.

Kishin Liger, from his match against the Great Muta in '96 (he has used the gimmick a few times since)! And here's Liger during his sole MMA match, in a smaller version of his mask.

Also Trips awkward colourful trunks phase. 2003 was a weird year.

Since 2003, that's the only different trunks design Orton has had (from Survivor Series 2004, by the way). Everything else has been the same base design in different colours.

Or who could forget Undertaker and those weird pants from Survivor Series 2000? I remember reading that 'Taker lost his luggage and borrowed those pants from (I think) The Godfather. Maybe someone can correct me.

Bret Hart wore a pink singlet at 93 Survivor Series, whereas all this brothers wore black ones. I believe it was because he was ashamed of them.
It's really the only time, I think since his debut, where I feel he wore trunks just, that his basic attire ever changed.

There's a photo somewhere of Edge wearing Trevor Murdoch's gear at a house show.
That one match where Raven wrestled Jeff Hardy wearing short black trunks and hat cut his braids.
During the end of The Godfather's last full time run, he wore blue jeans, vest and bandana and just had a "mean guy" gimmick.
I remember 1998 Scott Hall having Kliq written on the front of his pants which was quite odd at the time.
Steve Austin's short lived colourful knee braces.

Kane's odd palette swap outfit from Survivor Series 2001. Don't think he ever wore it again before or since.
