Ryback wrestling with a Weight Lifting Belt. Like yeah I know it's a different aesthetic and it would be funny seeing him squashing a bunch of jobbers with it on. Like the joke being he did it so fast and without breaking a sweat he simply forgot to remove it before his match. But when he's wrestling against upper tier talent it just looks so bad and out of place.

Weight belt, singlet that didn't ever match at all, sleeveless shirt that didn't ever match at all, and sometimes even a hat that never matched at all.

You ever worked out in the gym 3am in the morning? If you did you're the weird one for wearing regular gym gear.

Bret Hart's socks would show just above his boots. It didn't look good.
Ahmed Johnson wearing thigh pads. Seriously dude, what the hell?
The zoom effect the cameras use when someone lands on offensive blow.
The WWE symbol just being two W's. Where's the E?
Unique typefaces used for PPV's like the Royal Rumble, Survivor Series and Summerslam during their classic years being replaced with generic ones.

I hate white ring ropes probably more than I should.

I hate the no kneepads thing.
And honestly, I have never once been able to take a wrestler who doesn't wear shoes seriously. From Snuka to Von Erich to Yokozuna to Umaga....I can't stand a single one of them. And don't give me that "Well, it fits for the savage type characters" nonsense. Yeah, they're civilized enough to travel from town to town and compete in organized fights, follow the rules closely enough to not get immediately disqualified, but f***ing shoes are where they draw the line. To be honest, I've always hated savage gimmicks, period.
Sorry. I lost control for a minute.

Gallows always wearing his ring jacket during his entrance while Anderson is coming out in a t-shirt.
Either both of you wear the product placement, or neither of you do.

The only thing that comes to mind to me is the whole "wet" look.
Is there a bucket of water in the Gorilla position with a ladle and everyone is required to take a scoop and pour it over their head before they go out? Or is it just a handful of grease?

Do Brock or Styles's tattoos count as "small?" Actually come to think of it, is there a single non-hideous tattoo on anyone on the WWE roster? Are you trying to tell me that you don't like Rusev's eifel tower tramp stamp?

Rey Mysterio's backless masks, because he checked for them being loose after every move, and yet he still wore them constantly for months.

I guess it's the ocd in me that prefers symmetry. A lot of the posts in this thread scream "OCD" to me. I mean, really, who cares? Wrestlers are going for a unique look, you like some better and some less, with the next guy it's the other way round.

Wasn't there a story where Reigns said that most guys pour a bottle of water on themselves before they go out? Then he joked that Bo Dallas used three. Cause original Bo was soaked when he came out.

I despise those white ring ropes. I know some will say it's only a colour, and maybe they're right, but I can't stand the sight of them. Give me red, blue, black, NXT yellow, even silver. I wouldn't mind but for years after WWE introduced them they were used for EVERY televised show. Raw, Smackdown, PPV. This annoyed me probably alot more than it should have.
The lighting on crowds and backstage. Moodlighting looks stupid in backstage segments. Do guys/girls just happen to stop by the lights to do backstage segments? It looks stupid. I also don't like the red/blue lights on the crowd.
Basketball shorts on most guys and bathing suits like Bo, Regal etc used to wear.
The way wrestlers stand when watching TV backstage.
The awful camara zooming thing they do for moves in every single match now.
Wrestlers doing commentary or in ring interviews in their wrestling gear despite not being booked on the show.

I'm resigned to working out at home, but dammit if I don't make pajamas seem like practical gym wear.

Man, I forgot about that. Didn't Bret start that whole look? He said he'd jump in the shower before getting dressed to make his brown hair look darker and longer. (If you've seen early Calgary pics of him, you'd understand why. His hair was like mine: curly and it would frizz out instead of grow long once it reached neck length.)

Wet hair moves and sells the action better. Not to mention if you've got long hair then it helps protect spot calling.
