Like the Besties, I had to pick from what was given to me, but most of these are pretty deserving. There was only one category where I didn't see anything. Obviously, the real awards will go nothing like this, but I don't really care. I think I'd be much more interested in the Oscars if they actually had guys like these golden wrestling studs handing out the awards (or as the awards ...).

  1. INCREDIBLE compilation of images, Alex! You really captured the "red carpet" of gold trunks! I know we're both big fans of the ones Dominic wore in his match against Big Sexy, and the metallic ones Chase recently wore versus Marco at Underground Wrestling were phenomenal.

    The only two "celebrities" who are missing from this list of "Who wore it best?" -- and this is going a few years back -- are the trend-setters of gold trunks in underground wrestling: Troy Baker and Kieran Dunne. (You may have already featured them in previous years, though.)

    1. Those are awesome classic gold guys, especially adorable Kieran. I didn't think that far back, but now I wish I had.
