American Badass Undertaker. Even though that's who he really is, that one was a surprise. Also, Bradshaw's change from everything he was to "JBL" was bizarre. He was in suits, short trunks, clean shaven, that was weird. Honestly, when he first made his return with the short blond hair and clean shaved while still the the APA was one that I couldn't get used to. For me once he got rid of the goatee and the black long hair, he didn't seem like Bradshaw to me anymore. Tommy Dreamer on two different spots for me. When he first joined WWE, and instead of just wearing the plain black pants he wore the jeans with the designs on them. Still not the biggest fan when he has the pants with crazy stuff on it. Even more so was his look during his first TNA run, when he started wearing the padded gloves, the shorter pants and kick pads. It just looked awful and thank god he eventually ditched it. Raven when he first ditched the shirt and wearing the kilt in WWE. A simpler change was the period when Orton for whatever reason stopped taping up his wrists. It just didn't look right with him having the bare arms. |

[quote author=" The Lion's Den" timestamp="1606268279" source="/post/8991667/thread" A simpler change was the period when Orton for whatever reason stopped taping up his wrists. It just didn't look right with him having the bare arms. I agree that looked downright wrong. It was like he was a figure where they cheaped out by not adding the wrist tape. He brought it back after he injured his wrist doing his RKO set up where he pounds the mat. |

I honestly never liked Shawn wearing the chaps from his later run.

Gotta agree with thr HBK wearing chaps. I still hate that look. His tights were always well designed. I think it was said he made the switch because of knee braces (like Rey) but the look was just awful.

Kane in 2002 where he slimmed down, wore the half-mask, and did the Kaneroonie. It was such a physically shocking change that literally came out of nowhere after being built like a tank for years. That bicep tear must have been really bad to slim down like he did.

Sting rust colored singlet in TNA.
Jericho switching to trunks.
Warrior switching to singlets.
Macho Man switching to tights and cowboy hats.
HBK switching from tights with removable entrance chaps to pants that look like chaps.
Road Warriors to LOD 2000.
Taz switching from a singlet to the shirt and pants.
Cena switching from the matching gear to the jorts and sneakers.
Rey Mysterio going maskless in WCW.
All those were changes I never got used to and hated.

My biggest ones would be 2008 Jericho into trunks, shaved head Triple H, and long tights Rollins in 2014.
When Taker showed up his shaved head in 2012, it was so, so bizarre.

HBK going from tights to trousers.
AJ Styles going from shorts to tights.
AJ Styles with long hair (I still absolutely hate it. He doesn't look like AJ Styles at all).
Joe going from tight shorts to baggy shorts.
Undertaker wearing the big MMA gloves (I never liked them on him. For nineteen years I've longed for him to go back to his leather gloves).
I never got used to Sting wrestling in a t-shirt for as long as he did in TNA. Also, remember when he started putting his tights OVER his boots?! What the hell was that about?
Ziggler switching to tights from shorts. I'm still quietly hoping he switches back at some point.
Jericho in trunks.
Davey Boy in JEANS?!
It took me a while to get used to Angle wrestling in trainers instead of his usually colourful boots.
Taz ditching his signature singlet for the lorry driver gear.
DDP when he went to trousers in WWF.
Goldberg when he switched to the little shorts with the designs on from his signature black trunks.
When Bradshaw first stopped dying his hair and shaved off his goatee.
Edge when he came back in 2011 with all the weird skulls and stuff.
That's all I can think of right now.

The HBK one didn't really bother me surprisingly. His history of being in DX, being a premadonna, pretty boy kind of led to something a little different and flamboyant.
