10 Most Hideous Wrestling Attires EXPLAINED
Remember that time Rey Mysterio looked like a massive d*ck?
Wrestling attires can be a source of unexpected joy.
Your favourite star is set to throw down in a World Championship main event in front a packed stadium and then, BOOM!
Out they come in an outfit so damn beautiful and over-flowing with detail, anything that follows the debut of that costume is already 90% more captivating.
However, as the following list will make painfully clear, sometimes a company or wrestler's attempts to visually change things up a little leads to a genuinely nightmarish image.
In a lot of these cases, stars were simply begging to be given a chance to make a name for themselves on TV and foolishly jumped at the chance to don some of the worst gears imaginable.
Others were just trying to go for something new and got it horrible wrong on the night. And then there's those performers who actually opted for an entirely different look for one particularly hilarious reason.
All will be revealed in the following hideous, jarring, or straight-up baffling entries.
So, don't say you haven't been warned, folks, because things are about to get a little bit ugly.
10. Curtis Axel Tries To Channel His Father
This former WWE Intercontinental Champion decided to mix things up a little outfit-wise on a few occasions over the years, going from a set of standard trunks, to Hulkamania tights, to B-Team trousers.
However, there was actually another often forgotten - and for good reason - Curtis Axel in-ring gear that popped up during the 2014 edition of the Money in the Bank PPV.
Teaming alongside the singlet-boasting mountain of meat known as Ryback in a match against Gold & Stardust, Axel donned a pretty dreadful one-piece for the tag bout.
Why did he go for that singlet with an appropriate weapon on his back then?
Well, likely for one of two reasons.
RybAxel wanted to show the world just how united they really were on the night, or the second half of that dreadful team name may have just wanted to pay tribute to his Perfect father.
Either way, the end result was painfully bland, and Axel simply didn't look right in the attire that once made Curt Hennig one of the coolest men in the business.
This one was soon thankfully scrapped and never dusted off again.
