Let’s take a breather from the chaos that is WrestleMania (Sorry Pat McAfee) and talk about wrestling fashion!
McKenzie Mitchell has made a name for herself as an on-screen host for WWE and TNA. Now, she’s written a book! It’s entitled Threads of Triumph: Professional Wrestling’s Most Iconic Looks. It’s a showcase of fashion in wrestling from every era, as far back as Gorgeous George to as recent as Rhea Ripley.
McKenzie tells us all about her opinions on what works in wrestling gear, how a look comes to define a performer, and the value of constantly evolving your presentation to the audience.
