Outside of Michael Jordan, were there any other sports stars that matched the level of stardom and popularity as the WWF wrestlers in the 80’s and 90’s? You should check your pulse if you’re not excited by wrestling of that era because pro wrestling was one of those acceptable guilty pleasures that brought us so much entertainment and drama. This upcoming Holiday 2012 pack features the all-new Air Jordan 9 "Nite Owl" Custom, but it’s also used as a vessel of tribute to some of the most electrifying men in sports entertainment history, using signature graphics and details to represent memorable wrestlers of the past. Below, we have a look at versions inspired by Jake The Snake Roberts, Legion of Doom, a red/yellow version that looks like a possible Hulk Hogan nod and a fourth that represents another superstar wrestler (likely Randy Savage or the Ultimate Warrior, given the pink and yellow colors). Your thoughts on this intriguing pairing? Check out the catalog preview shots of the Air Jordan 9 "Nite Owl" Custom ‘WWF Pack’ below and stay tuned for more info coming soon! Photos via us11
