WWE: 7 Most Ridiculous Outfits Wrestlers Were Ever Forced To Wear

7. The Swagger Soaring Eagle

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3wXlYnQjyE The first of two Guerrero's on this list to have dressed up in animal costumes is Chavo Guerrero Jr. who had a brief spell as Jack Swagger's mascot The Soaring Eagle. Swagger had won the World Heavyweight Championship 5 days after Wrestlemania in 2010, but by late 2010 he was stalling after losing his title. So what did he do? He got a mascot. Swagger introduced The Soaring Eagle when he made a grand homecoming to the state of Oklahoma and the Eagle danced and ran around and eventually bowed down to Swagger. Guerrero was no stranger to being given odd gimmicks, for a brief spell he became the quite racist Kerwin White (If it ain't White, it ain't right) in 2004. Guerrero, a supremely talented wrestler never seemed to have the charisma levels of his uncle Eddie and always found himself floundering in the lower card of WWE. He was probably the first person they asked when they had this in mind. The eagle character was possibly the funniest character on this list, and although a spear from Edge couldn't put the eagle out of action the character was quickly dropped after a couple of weeks. While his time as The Soaring Eagle was short, the costume wasn't that bad and it was kinda funny, but it's still ridiculous to think a wrestler from an incredible wrestling family once donned an eagle suit and danced around for Jack Swagger.
