Okay, let's be realistic... the poster is to try and sell to the "average" or "part time" fans who really don't know follow wrestling that deep. Putting Miz or Alexa on the front doesn't sell anything.

My girlfriend doesn't follow wrestling much, but out of those group of people she knows who the Undertaker, Triple H, Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Roman Reigns, and Nicki Bella are. That's about it.

I could care less about the poster. I'm more mad at the card. Sure have your part-timers included in the show, show them off, make sales off of them, but let the night and memorial moments belong to the guys who've worked their butts off.

Brock vs. Goldberg shouldn't be for the title, that makes no sense.

 You ever wonder what kind of person buys a Roman Reigns vest?

I myself wonder what kind of person wrestles in one, but that's another conversation. Let me show up one day in a football-style jockstrap with thigh/knee/tailbone pads under some Nash pants and see what people say.

You know what, let me.

 Baron Corbin makes himself an easy target, I wonder what store he gets those pants from so I can avoid the state it's in.

The attire a wrestler chooses tells me so much about the competitor and his background/mentality. For example, the time tested black trunks worn by Superstars such as Stone Cold, The Rock and Randy Orton speak to an athlete who came up in the tradition of APW, and I would expect them to wrestle a classically American style.

Kurt Angle, olympic gold medalist, also paid tribute to his combat sport roots with a Greco-Roman wrestling singlet, a convention started by the Steiners and followed by other amateurs who made the leap.

Long tights with colorful designs remind me of the higher octane wrestling styles common in Japan and Mexico, as well as competitors who have traveled the world learning different forms of the art, see: Jericho, Styles, Sami Zayn.

Steve Blackman's martial arts background gave hima level of comfort competing in a gi.

Bayley wears childlike designs to raise awareness for special needs children...or something.

You rock the kickpads, and those feet better have an education.

Even colors matter...Apollo Crews and those yellow trunks bother me, and if your feet rarely leave the ground, you shouldn't be wearing High Flyer Green. 

Oh, and just because I might not get another chance to say this: Rich Swann's winged trunks are the ******* worst.
