He also had green tights (seen at Survivor Series 1993).

For some unknown reason, I went on an Adam Bomb hunt. As well as the blue, he had: The green mentioned above (also worn on at least a couple of Raws) ![](https://i.imgur.com/zyezPRx.jpg) The usual Red and Yellow/ and the inverted Yellow/red version: ![](https://i.imgur.com/JeUwiCV.jpg) and this one with a different pattern on it (Raw - Nov 28. '94): ![](https://i.imgur.com/v7Ve9gI.jpg) ![](https://i.imgur.com/Y7GM24T.jpg)

January 1987 Koko B Ware wore pretty much a red leotard against Harley Race on Challenge. There's an interesting Jake attire on that one too that look like straight up full-legged biker spandex.

I don't remember ever seeing Jerry Lynn wear this attire anywhere else: ![](https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Ed0LczSKTWk/VosiMW6ntiI/AAAAAAAAB5w/-7v6-K8spLE/s1600/RVDJerryLynn1.png) RVD's outfit might count here too. I'm assuming he wore it a lot in ECW, but in WWE he only wore it once or twice before phasing out to "Just put dragons everywhere" outfits.

He wore that attire a lot more than you thought, so much if faded as hell now. His match at invasion against Jeff was the first WWE showing. He had several raws. Brought it out in TNA. ![](https://slam-wrestling-media.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/19154905/hj__15_.jpg) Just to get an idea how faded it is compared to all the other attires.

![](https://wrestlingnews.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Adam-bomb-1280x720.jpg) Anyone know if this is rare? I don't recall him wearing blue a lot I don't think I've seen this one previously.

REALLY good match too. IRS could work. Not sure if there's a pun in there somewhere.

I know he had it on Raw in 02-03 once or twice. I swore some of his indie matches. I could be wrong.

Adam Bomb had such a cool look, people sneer at the nuclear monster gimmick, but was it really worse than a zombie cowboy?

Adam Bomb had such a cool look, people sneer at the nuclear monster gimmick, but was it really worse than a zombie cowboy? Like a lot of New Generation guys, he was there, he wrestled, but what did he really do? 1 brief feud with Earthquake, almost a YEAR after his debut where he was squashed at Mania, one with Harvey Whippleman's guys when he turned face, but he just wrestled people generally. So many people were just floating around without storylines most of the time. If they're not really doing anything, it's hard to care. People give Russo a lot of credit for giving everyone something to do, but it was like that in the 80s too, look at Survivor Series 1989, pretty much everyone team was feuding with someone on the other team. 1993, how many of those guys were random people filling out a team.

According to bomb, he was in line for an IC run, bit it got nixed so the kliq could pass the belt among themselves. Given how many wrestled the kliq and lost their pushes overnight, it seems plausible, but management was also promising IC runs to anyone and everyone to keep them happy so they could gave been blowing smoke so he wouldn't quit.

How often did Jushin Liger wear the green or blue variant of his classic suit? I’m interested in his rare attires if there any that he only wore a handful of times.

![](https://i.imgur.com/yd5sVxg.jpg) Here are higher-quality images of this one-off HBK USA/TX heart attire. Must've been '96 or at latest a '97 house show judging by the ring ropes. Looks like WWF had 2 TX house shows in Jan of 1997 - I wonder if the TX heart logo indicated that it was one of these? Probably not, but I'd love to learn more about this night. These are FIRE and make me wish hbk wore them at royal rumble 97

HBK had the best attire. Combined with O'Neal biker boots, it just looked awesome.

No Way Out 2001. Besides the obvious interesting Undertaker attire (think there was at least one other similar?),Kane is in nearly all black aside from the dark red on the mask: ![](https://i.ibb.co/qDGfrP9/image.png)

He always had some kind of pants jeans or later the baggy leather. Good call on Kane though.
