I was racking my brain trying to remember what that coat was based on. No wonder he lost.

Cosplaying as one of anime's worst character to offer? Godly taste.

What on earth is this?! Now,I'm not really familiar with wrestling,but I don't think that Hulk Hogan would make this look good. To be brutally honest,I wouldn't be caught dead looking like that. Heck,I wouldn't be wear that for Halloween. This Kenny Omega guy couldn't pull it off even if he tried. That's not a good look for him and he looks like a total idiot dressed like that.

this is pretty cool, Love seeing another fan of SAO like me!

haven't watched anything like WWE since it was called WWF in the 90s and recalled someone named himself after Sabin from Final fantasy 6. Love when athletes can display their otaku side!

And how exactly would he cosplay as a guy that only wears street clothes and make it visually interesting enough for a ring entrance?

Well I mean Hogan was a politicking racist who couldn't actually wrestle and Kenny is probably one of the top 5 best wrestlers in the world today so I don't see the comparison.

Huh, didn’t know Jim Cornette was a member of the forums. (J/K).

I’ll give AEW credit, no way in hell would WWE let him wear that getup.

You mean the same WWE that let Damien Sandow dress up as Magneto?

Along with letting the New Day come out like this

Point taken. I was thinking about how Finn Balor can’t use nearly the variety of makeup he did when he was in New Japan.

Would it change your opinion to know that his finisher is the One-Winged Angel?
