Christian Cage Reveals How He Came To Wear A Sleeveless Turtleneck As Ring Gear
Christian Cage discusses his wrestling attire as of late.
Since turning heel, Christian Cage has been one of the top bad guys in the world of professional wrestling. One part of his attire that he has added is the habit of wearing turtlenecks, opting for sleeveless turtlenecks when he wrestles in AEW.
While speaking to Swerve Strickland and Montesy on the Swerve City podcast, Christian revealed how he came to the decision to wear the turtlenecks in the ring.
“A half hour, 45 minutes before the match with Jack at the pay-per-view, I was getting my stuff on and getting ready to go out. I had one of my normal gimmick shirts with the sleeves cut off and the combat pants. I was looking at it and I was like, ‘I don’t know.’ I look at the turtle neck, and it just hit me, ‘What if I just cut the sleeves off that shirt instead?’ I look at it and go, ‘Yup, but I have to play it straight.’ If I don’t play it straight, it becomes funny. I cut the sleeves off and it was literally 45 minutes before I went out there,”

Christian is 0-2 in the attire, losing matches at both AEW Revolution and Double Or Nothing while sporting the unique gear.
