The wrestling singlet is something that has been sported widely in WWE and pro wrestling. Superstars who put on the classic look include greats like Kurt Angle, Rob Van Dam, and Shelton Benjamin during the 2000s to former WWE star Ryback lately. And most recently the comical duo of Chad Gable and Otis who make up the Alpha Academy, adorn the singlet.

But this week their manager Maxxine Dupri donned the singlet, and that caught Ronda Rousey’s attention.
