This is a funny thread, the fact this thing is called a bonnet makes me chuckle everytime I think of it.
What happened to doo rags are they old fashioned already, were they replaced with of all things the "Bonnet". Where does it end, in the future will tights become leggings or hosiery, I hope not. Is it just a matter of time before we see color coordinated separates, we already have under armour, body armour, wrestling socks, what is this sport coming to.
Are style points in the future?
Personally I think its ok to wrestle and look good doing it. The bonnet works well and if it keeps kids from having to cut their hair if they don't want to then its a good thing. But if they cant manage their equipment during a match then they should pay the price.
I defend my friend Wex, he looks good and wrestles even better! I haven't seen him stall with or without the bonnet and I hope he can laugh about this topic with the rest of us.
Seriously the sport should look as issuing rules for what is acceptable and what isn't. It's really not fair for one kid to have to get his hair cut and others allowed to wear a doo rag oops or a bonnet, seems like a good alternative to a bad haircut!
