Impact wrestling thread - It's a Don West tribute thread now!

Home is the best place for him. If I showed up with a wrestling companies logo at our school, I'd have had my head kicked in. If you wore Hi-tech at our school they'd draw a cock on your bag.

 

Yeah, I saw that at our school. Not the drawing a cock, but you would get your stuff nicked or thrown around if you weren't wearing Nike Air or Reebok Pumps.

Out of interest, could the school not of made the wrestling connection and put him in isolation because he has "tits and arse" shaved into his head?

 

Not necessarily saying it's justified, but that was my initial thought.

Do you recon Samoa Joe turned up for a taping wearing Hi-Tech one day and that's why they drew that cock on his face?

No, that's what you got when you wore Gola.

It was Nicks trainers that got you duffed up where I went to school, I think they were created for the very purpose of getting kids beaten up by calling themselves a name that was a shite rip-off of Nike.

[PunkStep]

Ascot, Gola, Hi-Tec, Nicks. Those trainers= bruises. Nike or Adidas for the privileged and LA Gear/Lights or Reebok Pumps for the ubercool. Converse if your uncle went on a trip to America and British Knights if your uncle couldn't afford America.

[Sergio Mendacious]

I chose the path less traveled - my trainers were from Skeggy market, and were usually Greebok, or Nork - I think it confused people. I had some Blockport boots, too, I think.

[King Pitcos]

I had Rockfall shoes. I had to be careful about my sitting position because the logo on the soles was massive. When I went to special school, I got picked on for wearing an Active tracksuit by boys in Reebok.

Lucky you got to wear trainers in school. For me it was dress shoes from Clark's as trainers were not school uniform and if you wore trainers you got disciplined.

[Duke]

We had proper Black shoes. If wandered around in trainers at school the latin lessons would've been chaos

[KingOfMetal]

You'd have got your head kicked in for wearing Gola shoes to my school....yet now everyone has a Gola bag and god help if it isn't a Gola. Maybe its just a Hull thing

[Ant]

There was never a finer pair of trainers than the Nike Air Max fluroescent highlighter pen yellow. How suave I must have looked.

 

Back in the Spring of 96 I had those. Though those were the worst days of my life. Du du du du, du du, du du du du du du.

We also had to wear black shoes in secondary. The whole trainers thing for me was in juniors.

[Astro Hollywood]

We weren't allowed trainers in infants, juniors or senior school. Y'all are a bunch of street thugs.

[Scott Malbranque]

Lord forbid you wore Converse or pumps akin to them. I was always BA Baracus when playing the A-Team with my mates, when I only wanted to be Murdoch or Face.
