Inspired by the John Cena thread, here's a thought.
There are quite a few guys who wear trunks nowadays (though not as much as before).
To mix things up a bit, change two guys in that type of gear to a different style.
My two choices:
1)Damien Sandow: For some reason, I've thought since he debuted that he should have something more extravagant under the robe than a pair of trunks. I think a singlet could have worked for him.
2)Curtis Axel: Once he changed from Michael McGillicutty, he needed to get away from trunks. Maybe a singlet like his dad, or something a little longer (from short tights to long tights).

Gimmicks aside such as the Shield and 3MB
Big E Langston and Kofi Kingston I guess.

^ But those two guys already aren't wearing trunks, unless they changed back and I wasn't paying attention lately.
I'd like to see Miz stay in trunks but break out his old arm sleeve thingies. ADR and Cesaro need to be back in long tights as they've both got the bulky but still kinda lanky forms that look better with the vertical lines of tights versus trunks.

Alex Riley: Umaga-esque "semi-long" tights, ditch the kickpads, but continue wrestling in sneakers. It's a nice subtle way to keep up the jock gimmick but without going complete cartoon character with it.
I agree with the earlier stance on Del Rio and Cesaro

Conor O'Brian - I just don't think they fit his gimmick properly, I mean imagine the original zombie Undertaker wearing trunks.
Barrett - I think jeans would suit the bare knuckle brawler part of his gimmick more than trunks.

I don't think, since Rick Victor started teaming with him, Conor's been wearing trunks. Think he switched to long tights. The names are more a problem for The Ascension to me than their ring gear though. |

Yeah he swapped to long tights, they look really good on him, made him appear bulkier somehow. |

I'd love to see Damien take a page from Normal Smiley and craft a suit of armor our of various sports padding and equipment. He tells the crowd that he's using his superior intellect to craft this unstoppable suit out of protective devices that are legally sanctioned by the WWE.
The suit is then stolen by Santino who goes on to crush Del Rio, take back the World Title and saving us from his boring YET MORE AGGRESSIVE THAN EVER ass.

For some reason, I think Cody Rhodes would look good in tights.
And the other, Tyson Kidd I guess. He should go back to wearing shorts.

The names are more a problem for The Ascension to me than their ring gear though. Yeah, their names make me think late night talk show host and WCW jobber. I can't think of who, but someone needs to bring back the singlet/tights look ala Bret Hart and 1-2-3 kid. |

Sheamus should wear a pale version of Giant Gonzales's attire.

Zack Ryder: back to the one legged tights.
Antonio Cesaro: Tights, definitely, gets rid of the stupid looking thigh tape.

Always had this fantasy booking scenario with Sheamus were he turns heel and becomes the Celtic Barbarian, come out in fur, his old face paint, just beats the f*** outta anybody that threatens him or looks at him wrong, face or heel, doesn't matter. He could have such a sick Wrestlemania entrance with that. |
