It might be hard to believe but this is what a hot young babyface team looked like in the mid-to-late 1980s. Windswept mullet? Check. Neon tassels? Check. Matching dangly earrings? Double check. The Rockers fit right into the WWF's cartoon era image. Everyone was wearing exceedingly bright colours back then. It was attractive to the kids in the audience and those were the ones that the company could push their merchandise on. Outside of the ring, Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty were known for their hard partying ways. The WWF introduced the 'New' Rockers in 1996, replacing Michaels with Al Snow (of all people). They wore darker colours but their gear was still a good four years behind the times. Jannetty, who must hold a company record for most times being fired, returned briefly in 2005 and showed everyone that he was still stuck in 1985 by wearing the same old sparkly tights and tassels as always. The one-time rocker is still wrestling on the independent circuit and is still 'rocking' the bright neon colours. Still, that was nothing compared to HBK's ugly outfit choice for the 2002 Survivor Series. Cowboy boots, poop brown tights and the haircut of a twelve year old boy didn't exactly scream ' New World Heavyweight Champion'.
