I Make this thread every couple of years, and felt like bringing it up again mostly due to
Rey Mysterio.
It’s amazing how much I hated those Leather pants and just switching back to tights make him looks cooler. I liked when he did it at OnS 2006 and I love it now.
I don’t love that he’s been rocking a singlet + his tights. Reminds me of fat guys like Big Show and Andre the Giant in his later years. Like a T shirt, feels like he’s trying to hide his physic because he can’t maintain his physique.
I’m not a fan of his giant Chest tattoos, but his tan makes it hard to see so I doesn’t bother me too much.
I hate Carmella’s Singlets. They look like a one piece Bikini. I liked her Long Pants better. At least the Money in the bank ones. Not so much the Peg Bundy leopard print.
Also, I love Red Hair Carmella. Something about current baby face red head Carmella is working so much better than the original blonde Enzo and Cass version.
I’m not sure if I like or Hate Finn Balor’s beard. Maybe it’s cause he’s Irish, but there’s something weird about that facial hair. Reminds me of a stereotypical leprauchan facial hair, How it can be super bushy and pointy yet only grows straight down with a super thin mustache (or hairless lip) and not much on the sides or cheeks. Like a huge bushy neck beard. On the other hand, I’ve seen pictures of him clean shaven and he looks kind of weird without it.
Braun, Amazing what just tying back that crazy hair into a ponytail and shaving the sides did for his look. He’s relatively the same as his Wyatt family look aside from that.

For many, myself included, Baron Corbin shaving his head helped tremendously. I still am not overly impressed with him by any stretch of the imagination, but he looks a lot better and less distracting.

It looks so cheap. Kevin Owens overlong stint with his schlubby outfit paired with his vintage Raw is War parody shirt was awful. Especially bad look for a top champion. In fact, no more Monday Night Raw parody shirts, wrestlers. Super corny. Nikki Bellas's short short shorts are fitting for her character as a narcissist heel, though I think they look overly impractical. As a face it just appears comical.

I agree with Braun, he went from looking like a giant Eugene to a straight out bad ass.

It looks so cheap At least they seem to be projecting him as a buffoon, so I can at least accept the business casual look, even if it makes no sense because apparently he lost his gear around the time he became GM. Now, Jack Gallagher in his vest and pants looked absolutely ridiculous when he was wrestling, and helped kill the excitement I had for his heel character.

I'll agree with Rey wearing tights again. I never understood why he switched to the leather pants. I love that he's gone back to wearing tights again - because that's the Mysterio that blew my mind in WCW and became my favourite wrestler.

I think he had huge knee braces like Austin/Ciampa and he could hide them under the pants.

I'm not a fan of giant chest tattoo's in general. Punk's looked awful, Corbin's giant rupee looks awful. I don't think they look good. I agree a million percent about Carmella's MITB gear. She looked much more like an athlete, instead of a bikini model now. I hate her current singlets. It fit her rough and tumble Staten Island girl thing better imo. Balor can shave that shit any day now. Lowers his stock so much for me. But I hate beards as a whole. Makes any dude that much more unattractive.

Agreed about Carmella's hair. She may be the first woman to get hotter after turning face.

Bryan could use a shave. I see wild and crazy beards and I think big bruisers like Harper, Strowman, Berzerker, Brody, etc. Bryan being goofed on for looking like a goat made about as much sense as goofing on Benoit with that toothless aggression stuff.

Bryan going heel would be a good enough excuse to change up the look.

I love personalised secondary ring gear (boots and pads), when wrestlers go from plain black boots and/or pads to something personally customised with a different colour, text, logo or designs to match up with the primary ring gear. Recent example, Billie Kay and Peyton Royce now have matching boots with “IICONICS” written down the side.

I love the 45 camera cuts during a move. It’s like watching while on the Tilt-A-Whirl.

Dean Ambrose bulking up in his time off really makes him look more like a killer, especially now that he's heel.

Kane's dollar store costumes the last ten or so years have been so awful that it feels like a rib.
It's fine if you're bad at wrestling at 50 years old, but don't be bad wearing THAT.

And this last run he couldn't bother to tan or get rid of the chest hair... I don't like finn balor walking around in a leather jacket with no pants... just very Alex Wright-ish.

I thought I was the only one bothered by Rey's baggy pants in his earlier run. Especially when he used the current style of tights at an ECW one night stand event and then reverted back for regular WWE programming.
I usually don't like baggy pants on wrestlers. It takes a bit of enjoyment away from Luke Gallows matches, for example, and even affected (slightly) my enjoyment of HBK matches (at first, at least) when he started using baggy pants (though they were still an improvement over that brown *thing* he wore when he won his last WWE title).
