Didn't Triple H dress up as Thor in one of his overly-long Wrestlemania entrances?

This thread starts and ends with Super Nova.
Also has everyone forgotten WCW Spiderman edition Mysterio?

Also has everyone forgotten WCW Spiderman edition Mysterio? I mentioned it and there are pics of the spider man and venom masks on the first page. Didn't Triple H dress up as Thor in one of his overly-long Wrestlemania entrances? I'm not sure if it was supposed to be Thor or Conan but yeah.

little-remembered jobbers The Heart-throbs once came out for Halloween as Batman.... and Batman. Jerry Lawler made what's probably the only amusing quip he's made in the last 10 years when he said they were supposed to be the Val Kilmer Batman and the George Clooney Batman.

Didn't Triple H dress up as Thor in one of his overly-long Wrestlemania entrances? I only remember his as Conan and that was WM22. Anyway, this just popped into my head. Rey Mysterio dressed like The Phantom at Halloween Havoc 1997.

Ninja Turtle: ![](http://theangryt.com/images/images/wwe%20divas/Eve%20-%20Ninja%20Turtle.jpg) And IIRC Striker correctly called her "Venus de Milo" (the female ninja turtle from one of the cartoons). As for Hurricane- Closest we got with the Green lantern homage was Austin pointing out the tattoo, which launched the entire Hurricane gimmick.

Cody Rhodes's old trunks were based upon Arch Angel from the X-Men comics according to him in WWE Magazine.

I love knowing what geeky things wrestlers are into.
Punk's Cobra tattoo, Melina's several comic book themed costumes, Rey multiple Mania costumes...
Funny thing is, for many of these, I feel like Striker is the only guy that does or would have called them out and told the audience what they were. Cole, King, etc. have no clue.

So watching the Rumble, I noticed Kofi was wearing attire that resembled Robin with the red, yellow, and black. He even had the circled "R" symbol except with a "K" for Kofi. I know Rey Mysterio did Daredevil at 'Mania 19, Joker at 'Mania 25, and a Navi from Avatar at 26... there might be others, but you'll have to remind me (please do!) Can you guys remember any other wrestlers having had special attires based on characters from comic books or films or video games in the past? And don't say Hurricane, wiseguys. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Punk had GI-Joe themed trunks once. He also apparently intentionally uses secondary colored gear when he's a heel, like comic book villains do. Beth had Dark Knight Themed gear in this one photoshoot (I don't know if she ever used it in the ring but she might have), one Purple and Green outfit and another Black and Grey one.
