Why isn't Seth Rollins using his NXT gear?

His gear at NXT was great and fitted him perfectly, I don't get why he isn't using that gear. Out of all the SHIELD members he has the best body to wear just shorts.

Why so I find it so brilliant though? I mean it is kinda fpalm, but such a cocky heel thing to do and it's kinda :lol both in a "ugh" way but also in a " :banderas " way.

It's typical heel. So crappy that it's good.

At the end of the day he's still gonna kick ass if he's just wearing trunks or this get up he's got now. Nothing is gonna change im his talent. The way I see, we're in the trial and error process. Better to happen at the beginning rather than a couple of weeks down the line when we're really getting invest the feud(s)/Rollins' singles run.

The new attire, the suspect entrance theme.

Not the best of starts to Rollins heel push to say the least.

I thought it was the wrong choice to have him turn heel and so far they have done nothing to make me think any different. It sounds stupid moaning about an entrance theme but look what it's did to Cesaro, it's set him back months and it took Barrett a long time to recover aswell.

As long as they get it right overal then i'll be happy but it seems that Ambrose and Rollins are feeding off the scraps that is left behind after Reigns as he is clearly the priority. Pretty much the same attire and theme which they KNOW works.

It's hard at times not to be bitter.

You don't like Wade Barrett's entrance theme? This latest one he has is the only one of his million themes that is actually any good, I think it's a great theme.

As for Cesaro's, yeah it's not as good as Patriot, but did it really "set him back months"? How so? Of course he was way hotter coming out of WM but do you really attribute that to his music of all things? I am baffled, please enlighten me as to how this is the case....

Am I the only one that doesn't completely hate the attire?

He was wearing combat gear for 2 years. You can't just seamlessly transition to wearing generic trunks. It's something different if nothing else.

I don't hate it. Apparently, he didn't even where the shirt during the match.

I think the standard first reaction is to hate everything nowadays. More people than not will probably be on board as soon as they actually see it.

I honestly don't have a problem with it. He went from looking SWAT-ish, to looking like an understated space marine. It fits with his whole "moving up in the world" character arc, he apparently takes it off before he fights, and lets keep in mind, this guy shares a universe with Edge's coat and Shawn Michel's bondage getup and Taker's necromancer robes.

But the most important thing:
He kept the gloves
God damn those gloves are a good look

It's like batman's body armour :)

Actually both sets of attire look like stuff Wolverine would wear...

Hate it, man.

Hopefully it's only temperorary.
