Shirt.Woot

A first glance, this shirt looks dirty!

Now all those large animals I get into fights with wont stand a chance.

What??? OHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I get it. All the animals are performing the wrasslin moves named after them. Clever.

There's something not quite right about the "chicken wing" pose there.

I would have impulse bought this, but no way at $13 for offshore cotton. :-(

Or have we gone back to AA for Men?

EDIT: AH HA! I'll consider the price hike for the old USA cotton. :-D

At first glance I was hoping this was a shirt about funky font names. I now get the joke.

Can we get a funky-font-name shirt in the future?

shirt.woot.com just gained 1,000,000,000 points in my book for this shirt, I'm a long time wrestling fan and this shirt was definite purchase

*$12, and TT already said this is an AA blank. Buy it.

Why is the chicken the only animal on the receiving end of their hold?

Chicken is getting held down.

Yeah, that chicken is taking it in the hmmm and I think it likes it. That's just not right.

What's up with the chair?

It's got some funny stuff, and is sure to generate a lot of people staring at your chest to appreciate the cartoony details.


Soooooo...just keep the whole "how long am I comfortable with people staring at my chest" thing in mind if you are a lady.

also kudos to the artist for actually illustrating how the moves are executed. its the little things like this that I think wrestling fans will appreciate

It comes to $13 for us tax payers. I've asked woot for a tax break, or something, even make it every 10 shirts or something:

"For you poor suckers who have to pay sales tax: BUY 10 shirts, get one FREE!"... but no response.

At 200+ shirts, that's around $200 I've paid in sales tax for shirt.woots!

I know it isn't woot!'s fault, but it's reality. :-/

On the one hand it's a funny design, but on the other hand, the longer that I look at it, the more the whole thing just seems full of "What is seen cannot be unseen moments"

Any one else getting the vibe that the design is barely treading on the PG 13 side of the line?

Look out! The ninja-chameleon got a hold of the chair!

Why isn't there a "wooted weevil" move - that somehow managed to empty my wallet, while delivering stuff to my door?

probably just added art. Steel Folding chairs have been a long time staple in the years of Pro Wrestling. Usually they are used as weapons

I love the subtle, grey on gray, folding chair! lol


Which, of course, everyone else wrote about while I was off looking at, and writing about, it. :-P

Dude, leave that panda alone! All he wants to do is sneeze and love you!

What poor animal is that gorilla, ummmmm, gorilla pressing?

While I know we are back to AA for this shirt, three questions:

How did we know it's back to AA?

When did we change from AA?

Why did the price jump $2?

Aww, no scorpion deathlock?

...were some of these made up?? O.o

My friend got me a ticket to Monday Night Raw in April so he wouldn't have to go alone (I don't even know much of anything about wrestling)....I am totally going to wear this there.

This. Rather than there being two "clutches" and the Cobra is well known as a different move by Santino anyway (oops, there goes my street cred).

Like the shirt, even though the guys doing something thats illegal in most states to the chicken.

So happy its on an AA.

To those asking about how the chair relates to the overall design:

A short "informational" video on chair shots.

Wondering why this is called "Wrestling Taxonomy". There's nothing taxonomic about the arrangement of the entries at all... O.o

Poor poor panda, he didn't even see it coming...

I beg to differ. According to the wiki page you pointed out. "The exact definition of taxonomy varies slightly from source to source, but the core of the discipline remains: the identification, naming, and classifying of organisms."
This shirt is all about identifying, naming, and classifying these wrestling moves.

You're just not going to beat the Camel Clutch.

I'd like a shirt with a full-sized logo of the Camel, slapping the Clutch on the Iron Sheik.

As someone who wrestled (non-WWF style), seeing the double chicken wing represented wrong hurts just a little bit. The arms of the rabbit could be pulled straight down when pulled up like that. The chicken wing is where the arms are pulled down and behind the person, then twisted upwards. When done correctly, nearly impossible to get out of unless you're gumby and can dislocate your shoulders while still being able to leverage them.

It dissuaded me from buying (I know, I know, stupid technicalities)...

Why the "hold" on the Boston Crab? It seems redundant, and it ruins the flow of the shirt.

In grade school there was a bully who always put me in the camel clutch. This shirt brings back painful memories.
