Went take in a huge 80s tribute band last night (attendance was close to 1000). I wore my Rowdy Roddy Piper shirt since it was an 80s tribute band. I didn't feel like full on cosplay (and it seems 80s themed T-shirts was what everyone did).

Interactions I had and what I've learned due to wearing this shirt:

1. Failed pro wrestlers will tie you up for 30 minutes, ignoring the band, shouting in your ear about their life and readily have pictures from 5 years ago on their phone to prove the stories (but none with the wrestlers name dropped). Also they have photos of their WWE check from their try out. He was a cool guy otherwise, but weird interaction.

2. Active "pro" boxers that lost a title fight via decision last week in Atlanta are cool as shit and I'm pissed I didn't get his last name to go friend him on Facebook.

3. Middle aged drunk women think "Hot Rod" waved his hand and then cupped it to his ear for audience interaction. And they will belligerently demand you reenact this for their amusement.

4. When you share the restroom with the venue owner and wash your hands he will compliment both your shirt, and your hygiene ("Man not a lot of guys bother to wash their hands") and then laugh at your bad jokes (I told him I didn't want to be patient 0 when the talent gets sick).


....and I'd considered the Bayley shirt.

Don't know about you, DV, but my ROH package showed up yesterday. I was shocked being on the West Coast, seemed quick. Other bonus, I don't know if it was a mistake or what but I had ordered the Best Friends shirt for me and the Silas Young cheap one as a throw in gag gift for my friend. When I opened my box, they had also given me a Matt Sydal shirt in my size. Not one I would've paid for but no complaints as a freebie for whatever reason.

Mine came in yesterday. Thing I don't like about ordering from ROH is that you don't get an email with tracking info.

My dad has been bugging me for a Bullet Club shirt for months (he's old so he's late to the bandwagon) so today for his birthday I went to Hot Topic to get him one. It wasn't being advertised anywhere in store but Bullet Club shirts were $10 and fell under a B2G1 deal and they also had a ton of wrestling shirts on clearance for $6 so I ended up walking out with 4 of the New Japan/pro wrestling tees branded shirts for $45 after tax. Oddly lucky timing on that.

Forget kids, I want that bad boy for me. I squealed like a little girl when I found the 1994 era Bob Backlund in store

Sat on Foot Locker.com this morning and set up an account to get those limited New Day shoes. Had them in my cart immediately and by the time I was certifying the code on the back of my credit card, they were already sold out. Terrible. Less than a minute.

For the Bullet Club anniversary, Pro Wrestling Tees has a code for 35% off NJPW stuff and has some merch of former Bullet Club members up. While not on the sale, I had to buy this:

Most of those that were being sold were from those print per order shops that only stay open for limited times because the aritst/printer don't have rights to the material.

I did do a quick search and found on eBay if that helps - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Becky-Lynch-The-Man-Shirt/372624435689?var=641388195396&hash=item56c225a9e9:m:md35L6lUHmf45ij_u8CPmjg

Pick the person who posts here most likely to buy this - tagged shirt logo because it leans toward NSFW

I went to Rite Aid this morning and they had Ryback action figures for $16.99.

Should have been $20 minimum

Well my family Christmas shopping is done early

There's an eBay page that for $10 you tell them your size and they send you an undisclosed wrestling shirt at their choice.

I'm tempted.
