Probably about 99% of them. One particular from the last year: Vince likes cock. Yet I see a surprising amount of people actually still wearing it in public. Off the top of my head, some that I actually wouldn't have minded wearing would be any of the basic Austin 3:16 shirts or Christian's Captain Charisma shirt.

Austin 3:16 and nWo were the only good wrestling shirts ever made because they were simple designs. They were cool because no one knew they were wrestling shirts. Every once in a while there is a passable one made, but it's very rare. Personally, I wouldn't be caught dead in a wrestling shirt.

well Considering I have worn horrid shirts to school back in the day I guess I don't apply,but the new Kennedy shirt I got (the one he is currently wearing on tv) is cool cuz it just has that KK logo with Microphone on the front. No name or wwe logo on the back. so I guess that would fit the acceptable bin. Now I'd rather not wear shirts with pics of wrestlers on them especially those in their underwear basically (and I have worn plenty of those type in my day, I still have a bunch of them laying in the back of my closet actually)

I wore a undertaker shirt to raw last week I got at walmart, which has pics of him and the cool logo, okay to wear to a wrestling event, not so cool in public I suppose. (actually I saw at least two fans on raw last night wearing the same one, plus a cena one I saw in the store as wel but didnt buy)

Why wouldnt some of you not wear wrestling shirts? i dont see the problem in it... if you like said wrestler then buy a shirt because you like them! But Thats your agenda and noyone to judge...

 

i got alot of heat at school for wearing the sex & violence shirt....

 

I have a plentiful of shirts but i wouldnt wear the yellow Carlito shirt... Its WAY too bright! i use it only for home...

 

other then that.. any of the new DX shirts (i bought the cross one and it looks bad on me...)

 

id never wear a cena or hogan shirt EVER!

I wish I had bought the cena shirt to wear to RAW simply cuz of all the hate for him. anyhow I'm not embarrased to wear a wrestling shirt since I'm a fan. But I was just answering the topic question best I could

I guess its to avoid the stupid questions and the "Don't cha know its fake" comments, or people trying to prove that they are smarks to you by saying stupid things like "You know Ultimate Warrior died right?" or blantantly obvious ones like "Undertaker isn't his real name"

 

Sometimes it is best to keep fringe stuff on the fringe.

 

Look, would you wear a Jenna Jameson or a Ron Jeremy shirt?

Well despite being a wrestling fan, I also have good taste in clothes. I'd never be caught dead in any of that shit, even if I liked the guy. Don't know how old some of you are, but I'm in my late 20s and I dress appropriately for that stage of my life. I have no interest wearing a cartoonish picture of some greased up guy in his underwear.

You know I have never had any one ask me any questions or make comments while wearing a wrestling shirt (other than cool shirt comments), save for the time in high school when a dude kinda made fun of the fact that I only wore wrestling shirts to school (which was pretty true back in about 99, as I bought a lot of cheap kmart style wrestling shirts to wear cuz wrestling was popular at the time and it was cool to wear them,)

Come to think of it, I have three shirts, all of which I wear under different circumstances.

 

My Lance Storm tee is from April 2000. I still wore it the second most of my tees until this May, when I went to Raw. I needed to be a crowd face to my buddy's being a heel (bringing a Yankee flag), and cut the sleeves of to expose my Hitman tattoo. (Hitman tat - how's that for answering the question?) It's an around the house/sport shirt now.

 

I have an EC Fn W shirt that I bought in September 2000, which I wear the most frequently of my tees, which is probably once every 10-15 days. I can get away with wearing when I go to work in electronics at Wal*Mart (which we've been calling the ECW since 2004).

 

Finally, the one I don't usually wear is a C1983 British Bulldogs white...I wouldn't quite call it a tee. It's actually pretty low cut, in the sense I'd probably be called a floosie if I were a girl wearing it. Typing that, it dawned upon me how much weight I've put on since my dad gave it to me in 2004. Maybe my new tits have a role in it.

I remember the APA had a shirt that said "Always pounding ass". Who in their right mind would wear that in public?

I had a few friends that used to wear that shirt ALL the time. It became a running gag among my buds. And yes... they did get the sexual undertones, that just made it funnier.

Many of the new wrestling t-shirts really aren't that good. Too many are corny. I do have a few that I like to wear though that aren't bad.

 

ECW: EC f'n W, Lance Storm (Canadian Superstar)

 

TNA: Samoa Joe (This one is really nice though, on the front it has a Samoan design and says "Joe Knows Pain" on the back), Christian Cage (Got Charisma?), TN Eh (Team Canada), I also bought a team Canada baseball jersey a while back and when I realized it was the same as the one that team Canada wore I had 00 D'Amore put on the back.

I have a DX Reunion Tour shirt that I picked up at the RAW Family Reunion show last October that I don't mind wearing in public. Also the December to Dismember shirt that I picked up at the show is OK. As one poster said, as long as they're kind of subtle and don't show some bare-chested wrestler in his tights I'm not too uncomfortable with wearing one in public.

These days I find myself wearing Umaga's shirt, mainly because I'm a fan of ringer shirts. And I always like raising eyebrows at work about the big scary face on the front. Plus, Sandman's shirt is always a good conversation starters with the few wrestling fans at work. I used to wear Carlito's Eat Spit and Finlay's Love Ta Fight shirts but those are now for home or get-togethers with buddies.

 

Other than that, I would never wear a wrestling shirt in public for all the reasons previously mentionned, except maybe at a wrestling event.

Any shirt that has a wrestler image on it, even worse when he's half-naked. Remember those shirts in the mid-90's where the front was just a giant face of a wrestler ? I remember the Road Warriors having one of those, they were just awful.

 

I never buy wrestling shirts because the vast majority of them are lame and not worth the $25 they're charging at live events. I only bought one wrestling t-shirt in my whole life and it was on an impulse because everyone in my group had bought one. It was the Carlito applehead with "I know cool" written on it. I wore it a few times but I guess it's now my official "go to a wrestling event" t-shirt.

 

There is one shirt however that would break all those rules and, if I could ever get one, I would wear it all the time and it's the "Owen 3:16 - I just broke your neck" shirt. Was that shirt ever officially produced ?

Oh god, having just watching SS 94 on 24/7 I know what you mean by those shirts. Like the Razor Ramon shirt that is his face, or UT. Or a number of guys. Cheese.

 

One of my favorite shirts ever was the old RVD shirt from ECW. White shirt with teal letters and on the back it said "I'm the F'N show! 4:20." It was a bit more appealing to the eye than the usual drab black ECW shirts.

In middle school I proudly wore the Austin 3:16, DX (although I wore a jacket/sweater over it because "Suck it" was offensive) nWo, and Sting (Scorpian) shirts. I'm actually considering buying another DX shirt, and I have no idea why.

The "Vince loves rooster" and "Always Pounding Ass" shirts are among the last I'd wear in public.

 

Also, Kurt Angle's "Freedom of choice" shirt.

The vince loves cock shirt bothers me because either -

 

A) People will assume my name is vince..

 

or

 

B) I'll run into someone named Vince.

There's an old DX shirt that I have that I now refuse to wear in public... but I'd wear the shirt if it didn't have MR. ASS sitting there in the forefront and drawing attention to himself, and Triple H wearing the beret and looking really girly as well. Its sad when X-Pac is on the shirt and is the least embarrassing part of it.

The only couple of shirts I've ever worn are the Cactus Jack DOA/WCW Magazine V.I.P. I wore a Austin shirt back when he first became Stone Cold and got suspended for Stunnering a few kids in the hallway. Hah.

Most of them because I don't get many shirts. I do have a Crazy Max shirt that I wear a lot. I was really wanting a GCW shirt, but I guess that's not happening...
