Ranking What Was Really The Best Wrestling Attire Every Year 1990-2021
23. 1999 - The Rock
If "cool" is measured by an ability to pull off the absolutely ridiculous, the Rock was the coolest man on the planet in 1999. He wins Best Dressed for a year in which he wrestled in a value range knockoff tracksuit for three months. That's how cool he was.
He looked cool in the ring after that, without much trying: the regulation black trunks and boots suited him well because he never lost sight of when business had to be done. He was never a joke.
When he trash-talked his utterly beleaguered opponents - it's a good job Triple H wrestled like Triple H in 2000, because Rock made him look like Billy Gunn in '99 - he did so wearing the most garish unbuttoned shirts because he could. You couldn't. You might have wanted to, in your most optimistic moments. If you could get away with it, you'd walk out of lockdown and into a pub with your pecs out right now. But you can't.
You are not The Rock.
